Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Azura Loomis’s System Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Azura Loomis’s System Azura Loomis turned her gaze away a bit impatiently, and the next second, a voice suddenly echoed in her mind.
“[Host, Lucas Jennings’ Goodwill Value is currently nearing the passing line. To ensure the extraction of Fortune, please enhance Lucas Jennings’ Goodwill Value promptly.]”
“I got it.”
Azura was a bit annoyed.
“If it weren’t for you saying that reducing their positive energy makes the Fortune extraction easier, why would I have taken Lucas Jennings there? You clearly said before that ghosts wouldn’t hurt , so what on earth were those threads?”
If it hadn’t been for those threads rushing towards her, she wouldn’t have been startled and instinctively left Lucas behind.
Otherwise, why would Lucas be mad at her?
Originally, when Lucas left angry today, she hadn’t taken it seriously.
But unexpectedly, as soon as Lucas left, the system suddenly alerted her.
Lucas’ Goodwill Value plumted drastically, and even now, it showed no signs of recovery!
To pull Lucas’ Goodwill Value above 85 points, she had spent a full three years!
And just like that, she lost twenty points in an instant, leaving Azura deeply frustrated.
“[The system doesn’t make mistakes. It can ensure that the host won’t be hard by Shadow Energy, but the threads are driven by Resentful Energy and are not categorized as ghosts.]”
The system’s formulaic tone made Azura increasingly irritated.
This system, she accidentally acquired after moving into the Jennings Family.
With the system, she easily gained beauty, a perfect body, and even a brilliant mind. Coupled with the subsequent Fortune extraction, her life had been smooth sailing.
Because of this, she always trusted and relied on the system’s words.
Who would have thought that it would cause her such a huge setback this ti!
“Everything is dictated by you. Luckily, Lucas is easily placated. Don’t worry. Once I’m discharged and back ho, I’ll quickly restore his Goodwill Value.”
Despite the setback, Azura wasn’t overly worried.
Lucas had a big temper, but he was the type whose anger dissipated quickly.
Over the years, Azura had thoroughly understood the temperants of the Jennings brothers.
Thinking of this, she picked up her phone again and sent Lucas another ssage.
“Lucas, are you asleep? You didn’t visit today. Are you still mad at your sister? I’ve had trouble sleeping in the hospital these past two days. Whenever I think about what happened that day, I feel sad and regretful. I’ve never experienced anything like that, and it still scares . I left you that day because I wanted to find soone to save you… I know you might not believe anything I say now, but I’m being sincere. Lucas, I’m getting discharged and going ho tomorrow. Would you co to pick up?”
After sending the lengthy text, Azura took the warm water handed to her by Chase Jennings, sitting back to wait for the system to report an increase in Goodwill Value.
However, she waited for a minute, five minutes, ten minutes.
After finishing two cups of water, there was still no response, and the system showed no movent in Lucas’ Goodwill Value.
Azura’s expression was less than pleasant.
She couldn’t believe Lucas hadn’t seen her ssage.
Lucas was practically glued to his phone as a ga addict.
But why didn’t he reply to her ssages?
Why wasn’t his Goodwill Value moving even a bit?
Could he actually still be mad at her?
Anyone would make the sa choice she did in that situation.
Even if he was angry, two days had passed since then. Now that she’s extended an olive branch, he should let it go.
Azura thought Lucas was being ungrateful.
Possibly noticing her displeasure, Chase Jennings couldn’t help but express concern,
“Azura, what’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable sowhere?”
Chase looked at her, his eyes filled with worry and affection.
Azura pressed her lips together, feigning a lancholy smile.
“It’s nothing, it’s just that I ssaged Lucas these past two days, and he didn’t reply…”
She then turned to express a bit of worry, “I’m also concerned if he got really scared that day or if he’s feeling unwell… He should be in the hospital for observation for a couple of days like .”
When Chase heard Lucas wasn’t responding to Azura, his face also darkened, feeling Lucas was really out of line.
Recalling Lucas lively hanging around Scarlett Jennings at ho earlier today, he felt even more that Azura was undeserving of such treatnt.
It’s a sha for Azura to still be thinking of him whilst she’s hospitalized!
Chase decided that he’d be sure to give Lucas a good scolding when he returned ho tomorrow.
With that thought, Chase refrained from revealing the truth, to spare Azura any distress, and simply consoled her,
“Don’t worry, maybe he’s just engrossed in a ga and didn’t see your ssage.”
He said, gently taking Azura’s hand resting on the blanket, his voice soft,
“I saw Lucas when I was ho today. He’s fine. Don’t overthink it; you’ll be coming ho tomorrow.”
Feeling that large hand over her own, Azura felt slightly disgusted, but she maintained her gentle smile,
“Yes, I’m grateful to Brother Chase for keeping company. Otherwise, I would be overthinking things.”
She didn’t pull her hand back, and Chase seed to have forgotten he was holding her hand, continuing in his effort to comfort her with words.
Azura distractedly entertained the charade, while the system’s voice sounded in her mind again.
“[Host, Chase Jennings’ Goodwill Value 2, currently 92 points. It is recomnded to accelerate the strategy. The higher the Goodwill Value, the more Fortune Value the host can extract.]”
Hearing the system’s encouragent, Azura again felt sowhat impatient.
“I know.”
She certainly knew that the higher the Goodwill Value, the more Fortune could be extracted.
She also knew how to rapidly increase Chase’s Goodwill Value.
After all, Chase liked her, and as long as she was willing to give him so “response,” she could guarantee that Chase’s Goodwill Value would soar to 99 points.
But she didn’t want to do that.
Exchanging physical affection for Goodwill Value was sothing only lowly won would do.
Azura Loomis had standards for herself.
Even without being intimate, she could still hold the other person firmly; why go through needless motions?
Although Chase was considered outstanding in the circles of the second generation, he was still no match for Donovan Jennings.
Not to ntion, Samuel Chalrs was still in the picture.
Thinking about Samuel Chalrs’ appearance and status in the circles, Azura couldn’t help but feel a burn of excitent.
Only a man like that was worth her genuine feelings.
Especially since Samuel was a perfectionist.
Such people undoubtedly have high standards for their partners.
Even for him, Azura wouldn’t casually beco intimate with others.
It would only lower her level.
While she was pondering, the system chid in coolly,
“[Host, allow to remind you, you’ve been targeting Samuel Chalrs for three years, and his Goodwill Value still remains at 38 points.]”
Thirty of which were the initial points given by the system.
aning the real score is only eight points, which are as easily gained as helping an old lady cross the street.
Azura: …
If you didn’t speak, no one would think you were offline.
Elsewhere, in a riverside villa.
In a dimly lit room, a pale boy stared intently at a recently received address from a private detective on his phone.
His gloomy eyes shone with a trace of stubbornness while muttering hoarsely,
“Delilah, I found you again…”
