Chapter 522: Chapter 522: Chase Jennings’ Awakening
Since Ava Zimrman swapped her voice with Azura Loomis, Scarlett Jennings suspected that the price she had to pay for her ability might be significant.
Most evidently, it was her gradually losing her voice.
It started with her voice, then her eyes, ears, and even various organs of her body.
If she hadn’t been recklessly using her Power of Word Spirit from the start, perhaps things wouldn’t have turned out this badly.
The only thing Scarlett Jennings found ironic was.
The health that Kingston Jennings dread of was squandered by her.
…
“Are you here to laugh at ?”
Ava Zimrman spoke, her voice still Azura Loomis’s, but inexplicably hoarser.
Scarlett Jennings looked at her, her expression indifferent, and simply said,
“You’ve indeed created plenty of laughable monts.”
Hearing this, a flash of sha and anger crossed Ava Zimrman’s face, then as if in a desperate rage, she pointed at Scarlett Jennings,
“At least I never hid anything! And you?! You stole my Power of Word Spirit! Give it back to !”
“I didn’t steal your Power of Word Spirit, and I couldn’t even if I tried.”
Scarlett Jennings explained calmly, not caring if Ava Zimrman believed her, and continued,
“And even if I gave you back the Power of Word Spirit, do you think you’d still have a chance to use it?”
She had used Word Spirit to manipulate others, practiced Evil Technique to change appearance, transfer lives, and with all these instances, the Security Bureau would never let her go.
Ava Zimrman was not unaware of the possible consequences she might face; she just didn’t want to believe it, but hearing Scarlett Jennings ntion it now, she couldn’t help but beco frightened.
She had already been locked in a dog cage; was she to be locked up again?
She didn’t want that!
“Don’t you, don’t you want to know about Nolan Snyder’s whereabouts from ?!”
Ava Zimrman tried to find leverage for herself.
But saw that both Scarlett Jennings and the other two were silent, just watching her. Ava Zimrman wanted to question their reaction when she heard Scarlett Jennings slowly responding,
“Do you not know that the Mystical Sect has sothing like a Truth Talisman?”
In her current condition, worse than an ordinary person, a single Truth Talisman could get them to learn everything they wanted to know.
If they hadn’t found out by now, it could only be because she didn’t know Nolan Snyder’s whereabouts either.
Ava Zimrman was truly panicking now.
In the past, her greatest reliance was the Power of Word Spirit, but now, without it, she seed to be nothing…
What could she possibly be?
Chase Jennings had been standing on the side, watching Ava Zimrman slowly sink into bewildernt due to Scarlett Jennings’ words, his expression full of complexity.
Despite the complexity, this ti he would absolutely not sympathize with her again.
Seeing that Scarlett Jennings had finished saying what she wanted to say, he hesitated for a mont, but still stepped forward; there was sothing he wanted to hear from her own mouth,
“Back then on the street, when you saved , was it sothing you orchestrated yourself?”
Chase Jennings had doubted what had happened back then more than once, but every ti he suspected her, she would use Word Spirit to imrse him back into trust in her.
Away from the hints she had given him and Chase Jennings’ own feelings of sympathy or pity, Chase Jennings had indeed found so issues.
Especially when Azura Loomis disappeared from his car, but her voice and eyes beca Ava’s, which was enough to explain the issue.
“Did you approach on purpose?…”
Ava Zimrman’s originally chaotic emotions instead seed to calm down upon hearing Chase Jennings’ words.
Looking at him, she didn’t deny his suspicion,
“Yes, it was who hit your head and sent you to the hospital, all with the thought that you would later co to find .”
She paused in her speech, her eyes suddenly sweeping towards Scarlett Jennings beside her, then she shifted the conversation,
“But you got one thing wrong, yes, it was intentional, but the person I wanted to approach from the beginning wasn’t you, it was her.”
Ava Zimrman pointed at Scarlett Jennings, rcilessly dealing a blow to Chase Jennings,
“To , you were rely a convenient stepping stone to get close to Scarlett Jennings.
Even without you, there would have been soone else. I just didn’t expect it would go so smoothly with you, beyond my expectations.”
Chase Jennings: …
Inexplicably, he felt a bit angry.
Then Ava Zimrman continued to say,
“Using Life Transfer Technique on you was also because of Scarlett Jennings; harming you was rely to test Scarlett Jennings’ reaction and to create so trouble for her.”
Chase Jennings: …
Stop talking, he’s really going to be angry.
Turns out he wasn’t just a stepping stone; he was purely a tool?
Just for this, he almost lived his life as a re cleaning robot!
Seeing the turmoil in Chase Jennings’ eyes, Ava Zimrman couldn’t clearly tell how she felt.
Although it started with her deliberately approaching him.
Chase Jennings’ kindness towards her was sothing she had never received in her life.
As he said, he treated her as a friend.
But, so what?
Does a flower blooming in the gutter change the fact that it’s still a gutter?
Soone who has been soaked in hardship since childhood wouldn’t be easily redeed by a few monts of kindness.
At least, she never felt redeed.
She never thought the world was particularly beautiful either.
Walking out of that great fire, she decided that in the future, for better or worse, she would live according to her heart’s desires.
“If you’re angry and want to bla soone, then bla Scarlett Jennings, because if it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t have targeted you.”
After saying this, Ava Zimrman couldn’t resist throwing a provocative glance at Scarlett Jennings.
Even if she was going to face punishnt, she wouldn’t let Scarlett Jennings get away scot-free.
Even without the Power of Word Spirit, she still knew how to read people’s minds, especially those like Chase Jennings.
Arrogant, presumptuous, and never self-reflective.
Even if there is a fault, it’s soone else’s fault.
She could provoke Chase Jennings’ sense of dissatisfaction towards Scarlett Jennings without resorting to hints.
The thought of soone perpetually upsetting Scarlett Jennings in the future delighted Ava Zimrman.
Ava Zimrman’s plans were well thought out, and she indeed knew Chase Jennings.
But that was the past Chase Jennings.
If he hadn’t heard similar “provocations” from Ava Zimrman in his dreams,
If he hadn’t endured the nightmare of becoming Harry Whitley,
He might have imdiately followed her words, as he used to, blaming his current plight on Scarlett Jennings, feeling like Scarlett Jennings had implicated him.
But having experienced over three hundred despairing days in that dream, how would Chase Jennings dare to think that way now?
“Shut up, you!”
Chase Jennings suddenly burst out at Ava Zimrman, causing everyone, including Ava herself, to be montarily stunned.
But Chase Jennings didn’t care, pointing at Ava Zimrman, he yelled,
“It’s you who started everything, the root of all evil is you! How dare you bla others?! Why should I bla anyone else?
Do you think I’m still that fool you can manipulate with a few hints?!”
After seeing the “brutal” thods of Scarlett Jennings, Chase Jennings wouldn’t foolishly let himself be used as a tool again.
Wanting to trap him inside a cleaning robot doing endless cleaning work…
No way!
