The ambulance sped off and took Aivan, who was already in a deep coma, away from the villa.
Everyone else at the scene also had lingering fears, and they were suddenly at a loss for what to do.
Shawn’s assistant, Marley, knew a little about Aivan, and he guessed that this guy must have raised something sinister for him to end up in the tragic and miserable situation that he was in currently.
He was too lazy to be bothered about Aivan’s life and death. However, the auspicious time was coming soon, and Shawn and Janus's family would also arrive at the villa at any moment. According to the procedure, the grand housewarming ceremony would have to be conducted after they arrived at the villa. Aside from the lion dance troupe, the most important thing was, in fact, the ritual which was supposed to have been officiated by Aivan.
However, the Feng Shui master who was supposed to preside over the housewarming ceremony had just been taken away by an ambulance due to a strange serious injury before the people who were moving into their new home had arrived. Marley did not know how to deal with the subsequent situation.

There are hundreds of media reporters waiting to come in to observe the ceremony. I'm afraid that there will be no one to preside over the ceremony since Aivan is away. We might end up becoming a laughingstock when the time comes."
Charlie nodded and then looked at
Kathleen who was next to him. He suddenly had a plan and said to Marley, "I will solve this matter, so you don't have to worry about it. You can go outside and remove the altar where the ritual is supposed to be performed. Since Aivan is not here, we will not be engaging in Feng Shui and metaphysics, then."
Marley had no other solution in mind at this time, so he could only hope that
