The Fake Heiress Turns out to Be a True Tycoon! Chapter 181 - 181 181 The Troubles of Non-Humanology

Chapter 181: Chapter 181 The Troubles of Non-Humanology Chapter 181: Chapter 181 The Troubles of Non-Humanology Adam Jennings heard her cold remark and imdiately felt a chill down his spine.

This was a blatant warning to keep quiet!

Scarlett Jennings took advantage of his montary freeze and simply bypassed him, opened the rear car door, and got in.

Just as she was about to close the door, Adam’s tall fra squeezed in right behind her.

Scarlett was forced to scoot over.

Adam, however, carelessly flopped onto the backseat and slamd the car door shut.

“Wherever you’re going, I’m coming with you.”

Scarlett looked at Adam as if he were a patient, while the driver turned his head to explain the situation,

“Mr. Jennings, I’m Mr. Chalrs’ driver in front. Mr. Chalrs needs Miss Jennings’ help with sothing, and I’m to drive her over there now.”

Adam was initially confused by the ntion of Mr. Chalrs, but when he realized the driver was referring to Samuel Chalrs, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

Though the Chalrs and Jennings families were on good terms, and Samuel Chalrs and Brother Donovan were friends, when did Scarlett get so familiar with that Great Demon King?

Seeing her rush out just now, it was clear she received a ssage from him.

They even exchanged contact information?!

He, her cousin, hadn’t even exchanged contact information with her yet!

He had tried to get Grant’s contact from her, but she refused, yet she went rushing out with just one ssage from soone else.

Adam inexplicably felt a bit disgruntled.

After all, it was he who shared a blood relationship with her!

Scarlett had no idea how many emotions had just raced through Adam’s mind in that short mont. With the driver’s explanation done, she impatiently urged him,

“Can you get out of the car now?”

Adam originally intended to flee upon hearing this was Samuel Chalrs’ car since he had heard Samuel always hated others riding in his vehicle.

But upon hearing Scarlett’s eagerness to “dismiss” him, he suddenly didn’t feel like leaving anymore.

“I’ll follow you unless you agree to have Grant make a custom jade piece for .”

Adam decided not to get out, and the driver could only look at Scarlett for guidance.

Mr. Chalrs’ business could not be delayed.

Scarlett t the driver’s gaze, glanced at Adam beside her, and simply said,

“Just drive.”

With that, she sat down and ignored Adam.

The latter, seeing she didn’t relent, decided to be stubborn as well, fiddling with his phone before rembering he hadn’t yet replied to Azura’s ssage.

He texted her back, saying he was currently occupied and suggested she ask the housekeeper or Uncle Ming for help instead.

Inside the villa.

Azura Loomis stood by the window, watching with her own eyes as Adam Jennings got into the sa car with Scarlett Jennings. Then she looked at the ssage from Adam, and her previously gentle face turned unpleasant for a mont.

The next second, she threw the comb in her hand and the new doll to the floor without a trace of expression.

[System: Adam Jennings refused the host’s request once, Adam Jennings’ Goodwill Value -1 point, please be cautious in making requests of him.

Additionally, Adam Jennings’ Goodwill Value has remained unchanged for so ti; it is recomnded that the host intensify character strategy.]

Hearing that the Goodwill Value dropped by one point, Azura’s face grew even more displeased.

She had spent years trying to maintain an image that everyone liked, striving to please everyone, painstakingly elevating the Goodwill Value little by little.

However, according to the system’s rules, if her request was rejected by the target, regardless of how small the request was, the Goodwill Value would decrease by 1.

This left Azura feeling deeply frustrated.

Even a single point was extrely hard for her to gain!

All these years, she never asked for anything from the Jennings family to show she wasn’t after their possessions and because of the system’s rules.

Normally, she would’ve never dared make such a casual request of Adam.

But seeing Adam gleefully follow in Scarlett’s footsteps just now inexplicably reminded her of Lucas Jennings now.

Out of fear that Adam would turn into another Lucas, following Scarlett around, she disregarded the system’s rules and sent him a ssage wanting him to return.

Yet Adam actually refused her!

And it was because of Scarlett he refused her!

Azura couldn’t understand what had happened. Everything was fine before, so why the sudden changes?

…

Adam wasn’t aware that his single text ssage had made Azura furious. He gazed at the scenery retreating outside the window, frowning slightly,

“This is the way to the outskirts, right?”

He wanted to ask Scarlett why Samuel Chalrs was taking her to the outskirts, but turning his head, he saw Scarlett sitting in the backseat with her eyes closed, resting.

The light in the car wasn’t very bright, but from his angle, he could vaguely see the faint bruising behind her long lashes. Although it wasn’t obvious due to her youth, Adam guessed she hadn’t slept well last night.

Was it because she didn’t sleep well while filming the variety show outside?

Indeed, the beds outside couldn’t compare to the ones at ho, and squeezing three people into a room was quite cramped.

Stingy.

And she insisted on filming the variety show to beco a celebrity.

If she didn’t sleep well, it was her own fault.

Thinking this disdainfully, he remained silent.

The car drove on quietly.

Until they left the city and reached a developing area on the outskirts.

Adam recalled his third uncle ntioning the governnt’s intent to establish a new developnt zone, and several corporations had been competing for this project.

It seed the Chalrs family had secured it.

As the car approached the area under developnt, Scarlett rolled down the window, instinctively scanning for any gathering spots of Shadow Energy or Resentful Energy nearby.

But a glance showed the surroundings were quite clean, with the only notable feature being a certain place ahead where soone’s Golden Light was so radiant she could see it from afar.

Looking at the familiar Golden Light, Scarlett couldn’t figure out what trouble Samuel Chalrs could have encountered that required her, a Talisman Master, to handle.

Five minutes later, Scarlett arrived at the location Samuel Chalrs had pinpointed for her, a deserted mountain shrine without any offerings.

Seeing the wild shrine, Scarlett’s first thought was of a Wicked God.

Just like what Lydia Patterson had encountered before, sothing resembling a Wicked God statue.

Yet, with Samuel’s dazzling Golden Light, any ordinary Wicked God would avoid him.

Driven by curiosity, Scarlett moved towards the shrine. Samuel, hearing the commotion, ca out amidst his glowing presence.

Spotting Adam with her, he raised an eyebrow slightly, a clear question in his gaze.

Scarlett couldn’t see his eyes clearly through the Golden Light, but when she noticed him looking at Adam, she casually offered a brief explanation.

Then she asked, “What non-human trouble did you ntion? Where is it?”

For Samuel to have taken refuge in such a wild shrine, sothing must be clinging to him, though it was unclear what it was.

With these thoughts, Scarlett saw Samuel, seemingly a bit helpless, gesture towards a certain direction.

Following his finger, Scarlett saw a thin figure hiding behind a large hawthorn tree not far off, peeking intently at Samuel.

Samuel explained,

“There was a small issue with the developnt preparations, so I ca by to check on it. On my way, I encountered that child…

He blocked my path, asking if what just flew by in the clouds was a snake or a dragon.”
