Chapter 496: Chapter 496: North Spirit Stone, Samuel Chalrs’ North
On this side,
Scarlett Jennings eventually decided to temporarily place Sophie Harper at the Chalrs Family.
Fortunately, she was indeed injured this ti and didn’t co out after entering the Gathering Shadow Array drawn by Scarlett Jennings in the corner of the study.
Araminta Gold tilted her head and watched the array from the outside for quite a while, finally turned away in boredom and tucked herself back into Samuel Chalrs’ pocket.
Samuel Chalrs saw she was done and wanted to continue the previous topic with her, but just then the steward ca over, a hint of regret on his face,
“Miss Scarlett… Donovan Jennings has co to pick you up.”
Scarlett Jennings was taken aback and instinctively glanced at the clock on the wall, only to realize that in that brief mont, ti had almost reached eleven o’clock.
For Donovan Jennings, who always required Scarlett Jennings to be ho by ten, this extra half hour was probably the limit.
She went downstairs with Samuel Chalrs, and they both saw Donovan Jennings sitting in the living room at a glance. He was dressed in casual sports attire, looking at Scarlett Jennings with a smile in his eyes, his voice warm and pleasant,
“I was passing by for a night run, heard you were here, so I ca by to pick you up.”
As he spoke, he turned to Samuel Chalrs, his voice slightly cool,
“It’s almost eleven, didn’t the young Chalrs have anything else to do?”
Samuel Chalrs: …
“No,” Samuel Chalrs said, then turned directly to Scarlett Jennings, “Get so rest early.”
Scarlett Jennings nodded, was about to say sothing, but Donovan Jennings promptly pulled her towards the door.
Scarlett Jennings turned back to wave at Samuel Chalrs, then followed Donovan Jennings to the door, suddenly rembering sothing, she let go of Donovan Jennings and quickly ran back,
“I really like this gift, I want to na it North Spirit Stone, what do you think?”
North, as in Samuel Chalrs’ North.
Samuel Chalrs’ dark eyes moved slightly, looking at Scarlett Jennings in front of him, then his brows gently curved, his voice very soft,
“Alright.”
Scarlett Jennings smiled, then finally left the Chalrs Family with Donovan Jennings.
As they walked back, in the distance, Samuel Chalrs still heard Donovan Jennings ask,
“What Spirit Stone?”
Scarlett Jennings replied, “The gift Samuel Chalrs gave .”
“Can I see it?”
Scarlett Jennings opened the box containing the pendant for him to take a look.
Donovan Jennings glanced at it briefly, then said indifferently, “Nothing particularly special.”
Just a sowhat attractive stone?
“It’s very special,” Scarlett Jennings explained, her expression serious.
Donovan Jennings didn’t argue with her, following her lead he added,
“Even if you have established a relationship, don’t stay too late at others’ places, it’s impolite.”
He paused, then mumbled in addition, “Also easy to get taken advantage of.”
Scarlett Jennings seed to catch the underlying ssage in Donovan Jennings’ words and just said, “I won’t.”
If it cos down to it, she feels Samuel Chalrs has been taken advantage of more in her case~
Conversing as they walked, soon they were back at the Jennings Family.
Fortunately Chase Jennings hadn’t thoughtlessly co to block her again, or else…
She might consider locking him back in the doll.
Although Azura Loomis’ original doll had already been destroyed, there are plenty of places that can incarcerate a living soul.
For example…
She feels the robotic vacuum on the first floor would be quite suitable.
Pushing Chase Jennings’ matters aside, Scarlett Jennings attempted to set up a searching array.
Though she didn’t know what kind of background Ava Zimrman’s Evil Master had, nonetheless… the ghost that hurt her, this matter can’t be let go just like that.
Unfortunately, by the ti Scarlett Jennings tracked the scent of the black mist from last night, the Evil Master and his black mist were already long gone.
The rental apartnt was left with only an unremarkable Azura Loomis.
But Scarlett Jennings wasn’t anxious, since Ava Zimrman wants to replace Azura Loomis’ face, that Evil Master will definitely appear again.
All she could do was wait.
Despite this, Scarlett Jennings still drew a sensing talisman for Ava Zimrman and was pondering how to quietly place the talisman beside Ava Zimrman when suddenly the little baby spirit fluttered over with its chubby legs.
Sophie Harper had been nourishing her soul at the Chalrs Family these past two days, and with the little baby spirit having not seen its big ghost sister for a day, it was evidently a bit lonely. Knowing the big ghost sister had been hurt by bad people, it promptly volunteered, pointing at itself.
It can help too.
Scarlett Jennings gave it a glance, lightly brushed it aside, “Be good, no need for you.”
The pushed aside little doll stubbornly fluttered back in front of her again, continuing to use its chubby hand to point at itself, then hesitated before pointing at Scarlett Jennings’ phone.
Offering assistance.
Scarlett Jennings was struck by its gesture, suddenly blinking as she looked at the little baby spirit,
“Why didn’t I think of that?”
She could have the little baby spirit help find people from the web domain.
Last ti she had Sophie Harper take the little baby spirit to search the web domain for people, though the commotion was sowhat large, the effects were quite good.
However, Scarlett Jennings was reluctant to use this thod, as the web domain is a person’s utmost privacy.
Using taphysics to spy on others’ privacy, strictly speaking, is considered a violation.
Scarlett Jennings thought it over, self-convincing,
“But I’m doing this to find soone, so it doesn’t count as peeking at privacy.”
Besides, the little baby spirit is just a kid, it doesn’t understand what privacy is.
With this thought, Scarlett Jennings was instantly convinced by herself, yet recalling last ti’s events, she didn’t forget to remind the little baby spirit,
“After finding the person, only search her phone for ssages related to that Evil Master, don’t ss with other stuff, especially don’t link her phone ssages with the web domain of a region.”
The little baby spirit nodded obediently, Scarlett Jennings continued to advise it to be cautious not to show itself recklessly, and imdiately return from the web domain side if anything seed amiss.
After adding a layer of protective assurance on the little baby spirit, Scarlett Jennings finally used talisman paper to send it into her phone.
Soon, the little baby spirit followed Scarlett Jennings’ phone to trace the network on Ava Zimrman’s phone, then began rummaging through the ssages online.
In a short while, Scarlett Jennings received various ssage pages sent back by the little baby spirit on her phone.
Because the little baby spirit was still small and hadn’t formally studied, it could understand very little, so any hint of a differing aura that it detected was pulled back.
Scarlett Jennings had to sift through the ssages it brought back, and only when she finally found useful information did she notify the little baby spirit via sensing communication,
“That’s enough, co on back.”
The little baby spirit imdiately obediently returned through the network, but when passing through the intricate web domain, the little fellow’s round little head suddenly tilted.
As if sensing a familiar aura, it made a detour midway and ventured into another web domain.
…
In the east of the city, inside a small cozy bakery.
Delilah Woods sat in front of the oven waiting for the bread to bake, while she took out her phone to search online for news related to Micah Quigley.
Since Micah Quigley’s high school bullying of Isolde Garrison had been exposed, there had been many voices criticizing the two families on the internet, especially since Micah Quigley had been involved in raping a minor, and after she reported it, he was directly detained.
And yesterday, this case finally went to trial, with the help of the Jennings Group’s legal team, Micah Quigley was directly sentenced to eight years in prison.
Although the Quigley Family was still demanding an appeal, Delilah Woods felt her heart regained stability upon seeing the verdict.
Master Jennings got five million from the Garrison Family later all gave it to her, she insisted on keeping only three million, plus the compensation paid by the Quigley Family.
She and her mother bought a small two-bedroom apartnt in the east of the city, and used the remaining money to open this bakery.
Now, she was finally about to begin her new life.
The only debt she has, is to… that child.
Her child.
