Wilbur raised his eyebrows before barking out a loud laugh. He had just been wondering how he was going to separate this fog from Sammy's spirit flame when the problem had solved itself for him.
He stared right at the incoming fog and two silver sparks shot out of his pupils.
The sparks shot out, torching the gray fog into oblivion within seconds. There was hardly a trace left.
The fog was gone, and so was the curse. Wilbur's work was all done now.
The spirit was the most mysterious part of the human body, but also the most fragile and complicated. That was why Wilbur had taken so much care in doing this.
Honestly, he had the curse itself to thank for being able to break it so quickly.
The curse had an aggressive nature and was prone to attacking all sentient bodies that approached.
However, the curse's attack was hardly anything against someone like Wilbur.
Upon breaking Sammy's curse, Wilbur slowly exited Sammy's consciousness as he retracted his spirit presence back into his own body.
"Damn. Even celebrities have a hell lot to be upset about," he chuckled, tapping Sammy lightly on the forehead.
Sammy stirred slowly, looking at Wilbur in a daze.
He smiled back at her. "Your curse has been broken, and your spirit's undamaged."
"Really?" Sammy was overjoyed.
Wilbur nodded. Sammy got to her feet to thank Wilbur but was overcome with a wave of dizziness.
Wilbur said, "Your spirit's extremely weak right now, so you'll need to rest for a while."
He retracted the barrier and let Dom in.
Seeing his sister unharmed and the smile on Wilbur's face, Dom figured that his sister's curse had been broken.
Both brother and sister thanked Wilbur profusely, but he merely said, "Don't mention it. You gave me your jade statue in exchange for this. It's a fair trade."
"That's ridiculous!" Sammy flushed at once, glaring at her brother.
Dom chuckled. "Go for it if you like him. You're a beautiful woman. You might just stand a chance."
"Ha! Mister Penn's like a god. I wouldn't even think about it!" Sammy sighed. She did like Wilbur but did not have the courage to court him.
Dom sighed to himself as well. The Shandon family was quite reputable, and Sammy had countless admirers back in Zealand.
Those admirers only multiplied after she became a celebrity, but Sammy's standards had always been too high to pay them any mind.
Both Sammy and Dom had finally realized just what it meant to be someone of power, and how small the both of them looked in comparison to these powerful elites.
"Let's go home and take care of Ria first," Dom said at last, his gaze burning with anger.
How dare she do that to Sammy as her best friend? That was truly unforgivable!
