The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 222

Chapter 222: Chapter 222: The Ambushed Scarlett Jennings

Derek Gibney and his wife suddenly looked at their child. Faith had been in a deep sleep since her outburst, so how could she have anything in her hand?!

You could see little Faith blink in confusion, instinctively stretching her hand out from under the blanket. At this moment, to everyone’s surprise, she was actually clutching a snow-white little rabbit figurine.

Mrs. Gibney’s face changed dramatically when she took the object and looked at Scarlett Jennings with disbelief in her eyes, "Master Jennings, could there be a mistake? This object was given to my child by my sister for protection!"

Derek Gibney seemed to recall that yesterday, after he brought home the peace charm, his sister-in-law came to visit after hearing about the incident with the child and had indeed brought something, claiming it was for peace and protection.

They hadn’t thought much about it and kept it with the child.

But now Scarlett Jennings was saying there was something wrong with it?

Lucas Jennings, watching the drama from the side, almost burst out laughing when he heard this. This Gibney Family was truly chaotic.

Just after catching an internal traitor, oh, here comes another one.

Scarlett Jennings, however, ignored Mrs. Gibney’s shock and directly asked her, "Do you know what this item is made of?"

"It’s just clam shell..." Mrs. Gibney replied. "I know this item isn’t supposed to be bought or sold, but my sister heard it has the power to suppress evil and bring peace, so she deliberately had this made."

As she spoke, she didn’t forget to add, "My sister and I are very close, and she loves Faith dearly. There’s no way she would harm her!"

Though Derek Gibney remained silent upon hearing this, he no longer felt confident. Even though he too didn’t believe his sister-in-law would harm his child, after the babysitter incident, he wasn’t sure of anything at this point.

Seeing Mrs. Gibney’s agitation, Scarlett Jennings didn’t argue with her. She just took the clam shell figurine from the child’s hand.

From her perspective, she could clearly see wisps of black resentful energy leaking from inside this little trinket.

Faith was originally affected by the Cat Spirit’s resentful energy, and combined with the malicious resentful energy emanating from this object, how could she not have gone mad?

Confirming that this was indeed the root cause of the child’s distress, Scarlett Jennings immediately pulled out a Yellow Talisman and placed it on the clam shell rabbit.

Derek Gibney and the others watched as the Yellow Talisman visibly turned to black ash bit by bit. Before they could react, Scarlett Jennings simply tossed the item to the floor.

Click.

They saw that the snow-white clam shell had several cracks in it, faintly revealing something red inside.

The expressions on Derek and Mrs. Gibney’s faces changed dramatically.

There was indeed something inside!

Scarlett Jennings frowned slightly upon seeing what was wrapped inside the clam shell.

As expected, her instincts were correct.

The resentful energy enclosed in the clam shell was almost identical to the resentful energy at the abandoned school building and Sunbeam Mountain. It was likely created using the same method.

Therefore, the items hidden in the cracks of the clam shell should be red human bones.

Not wanting the child to see the human bones inside, Scarlett Jennings took out another Yellow Talisman and bent down, intending to collect the item first. However, as soon as the Yellow Talisman touched the clam shell, unexpectedly, a small bug crawled out. freēwēbnovel.com

It climbed directly up the Talisman and onto her fingertip, moving extremely fast. Before Scarlett Jennings could react, a sharp pain shot through her finger, and she was instantly bitten.

The next second, she saw the original black resentful energy coiled around the red human bones suddenly pouring into her wound as if attracted by some irresistible force.

Scarlett Jennings’s face changed, and without hesitation, she immediately took a large step back. As she increased the distance, she sealed the resentful energy that had entered her palm with another Yellow Talisman.

At the same time, she summoned a golden Thunder Talisman, disregarding the child still in the room, and swiftly began chanting.

"Heavenly Thunder resounds, Earthly Thunder groans, above are the Six Armor, below are the Six Ding, with the decree from above, and the definite thunder strikes..."

Lucas Jennings’s eyes lit up — he knew this incantation well!

He immediately ran far away to avoid being caught up in whatever would happen next.

Derek Gibney, his wife, and little Faith were bewildered as they watched until they heard Scarlett Jennings’s final command fall.
