The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144: Chapter 144 How Could There Be Such a Harsh Spell

The two most authoritative figures in the Jennings Family had spoken.

The matter with Chase Jennings was thus settled.

No one else in the Jennings Family dared to object, and as the original "catalyst," Adam Jennings was dumbfounded.

He even forgot about the prohibition Scarlett Jennings had placed on him.

For the first time, a sense of resentment sprouted in his heart.

Compared to Brother Chase, he only had an inconsequential prohibition placed on him, which could be considered quite lucky.

This time, Scarlett Jennings’s outburst and the clear stance of Luca Jennings and Old Sir Jiang finally made the Jennings Family deeply realize that Scarlett, the young lady of the family, was really not to be trifled with.

Even if they did want to provoke her, they needed to consider whether they could bear the consequences.

Adam Jennings didn’t know what others were thinking, but he was completely deflated.

He truly didn’t dare to provoke Scarlett anymore.

He wouldn’t even dare to use sarcastic remarks.

After all, he couldn’t even talk to Scarlett anymore.

Adam lowered his head pitifully,

A dignified young master of the Jennings Family, yet he fell to such a state.

Perhaps because he genuinely looked aggrieved, the attention of the surrounding family members finally turned back to Adam, especially Odessa,

"Scarlett, Auntie knows you’ve been wronged, but Adam really meant no harm to you, why don’t you..."

"Don’t worry, Auntie." Scarlett interrupted her, glancing at Adam with cool almond-shaped eyes, "As long as he doesn’t think about talking to me, he can speak normally."

Adam, upon hearing this, was somewhat skeptical, but with so many people present, Scarlett couldn’t possibly lie, so he attempted to speak to Azura Loomis, who was sitting across from him.

Opening his mouth carefully for the first time,

"Azura?"

As he spoke, Adam was astonished himself.

He touched his mouth with pleasant surprise and then turned to Odessa, "Mom! I’m okay!"

Then quickly turned to Old Sir Jiang, "Grandpa! ...Um..."

Adam found himself unable to speak again, his eyes widening in disbelief.

Before he could question it, Scarlett casually added from the side, "Talking about me to others doesn’t work either."

Adam: ...

What kind of harsh spell was this?!

Scarlett was being too domineering!

She wouldn’t even let him mention her?!

He just wanted Grandpa to ask Scarlett to apologize to him!

Adam couldn’t help but feel another wave of anger rising on his face.

The surrounding Jennings Family members seemed to guess from his expression that he had subconsciously wanted to complain about Scarlett to Grandpa just now.

Not just the second generation, everyone remained silent.

Although it was previously mentioned that they shouldn’t harm family members, Scarlett’s so-called prohibition didn’t seem to affect much.

As long as Adam behaved and didn’t trouble Scarlett again, the prohibition was essentially non-existent.

With this understanding, they couldn’t continue to hold Scarlett responsible for placing a spell on the family.

The second and third branches fell silent, not expecting Luca Jennings to speak first,

"Adam certainly needs to curb his tongue, but we are all family after all. Scarlett, you can’t just ignore Adam forever."

Luca Jennings didn’t oppose Scarlett teaching those who bullied her a lesson, but he still hoped Scarlett wouldn’t draw the line using such a method of silencing the other party.

Because of the Garrison Family, Scarlett’s temperament wasn’t as lively and cheerful as girls her age, and was somewhat indifferent instead.

From his perspective, she naturally had the right to refuse anyone or anything she didn’t like.

This was her confidence as the eldest young lady of the Jennings Family.

But no matter her status, there would always be things in the world that wouldn’t go her way. She had a long road ahead and would encounter many more people.

She couldn’t exclude everyone she disliked from her life using this method.

Doing so would only make her personality more self-contained.
