The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167: Chapter 167 The Truth of the Breakup Curse

It was like a floodgate had opened, and everyone’s suspicions surged toward that one place.

Not just the livestream audience, but even all the guests and crew present had a terrifying thought—one that no one had considered before:

The disappearance and subsequent death of the innkeeper’s wife might not have been an accident, but a meticulously planned murder.

Once that premise was accepted, everyone immediately looked at the innkeeper with changed eyes.

"If that’s true, then this man is terrifying!"

"Killing someone and deliberately staying at the murder scene, guarding it day and night?"

"Ahhhhh, wasn’t this supposed to be a metaphysical reality show?! Why is it a murder case again?!"

"Grayson Crawford = Grayson ’Danger’ Crawford."

"Whoa, I just realized his name sounds a lot like Louis Xalvadora’s!"

"Conclusion: Anyone with a name starting with a Y is dangerous..."

"Don’t say that, my name’s City-1, and I’m honest and kind, friendly and approachable!"

"My boyfriend’s online name is One-Blade. I already texted him to break up!"

"Brave sister!"

The show’s guests instinctively distanced themselves from Grayson Crawford.

He noticed the vigilant and wary looks from everyone and couldn’t help but frown. Fortunately, Evander Simpson did not let everyone’s imagination run wild and directly stated his own judgment,

"But I don’t see any life debt or resentful debt on him."

Evander was indeed skilled enough to spot Dashiell Xalvadora’s issue at a glance and trusted his judgment.

But at the same time, he also trusted Scarlett Jennings’s judgment, so where was the issue?

"I didn’t say he has a life debt on him."

Scarlett Jennings’s tone was natural, yet everyone around, including the livestream audience, was full of questions.

Were they wrong??

"Most of the resentful energy that affects others comes from Shadow Spirits. This resentful energy is like a form of negative energy, causing those affected to amplify their inner discontent and resentment, leading to impulsive actions, like them and him."

Scarlett Jennings said, casually pointing to the previously quarreling young couple and Gong Youtao, then continued,

"And the only person who could continue to influence the living with resentful energy after death is his wife, who was bound to him with a marriage line in life. But he has no life debt or shadow energy on him, indicating he had no involvement in his wife’s death."

Grayson Crawford was initially baffled until he heard them mention life debt and Shadow Spirits, finally realizing what they were talking about, and his expression turned somewhat ugly.

"You’re accusing me of killing my wife? Absolutely ridiculous!"

For the first time, he showed anger in front of others, his expression even somewhat agitated,

"My wife’s death was an accident! The investigation report from back then is on file, the police conducted a thorough investigation! How could I ever harm her?

If I could choose, I would even wish to die in her place! You’re accusing me of killing my wife based on mere assumptions! This is slander!"

The surrounding guests and staff heard this and remained silently quiet. Amber Livingston, sensing that Evander Simpson and Scarlett Jennings were getting most of the attention and camera time, interjected to gain some spotlight for herself, albeit with some disingenuity,

"Whether it was an accident or murder remains to be determined. After all, if it weren’t for Miss Lin’s own awareness earlier, who could say for sure whether her fall off the cliff was an accident or murder?"
