The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 283

Chapter 283: Chapter 283: The Great Ghost Appears

"What does ’protect the princess’ mean?"

Amber Livingston no longer kept a cold face, pretending to be a stoic bodyguard. She widened her eyes and glanced at Ariel Zimmerman, her gaze shifting over the elegant princess-like figure, and instinctively asked,

"Does it protect based on looks too?"

It’s understandable why she thought this way because earlier, Ianthe Lawson mentioned that when she and another actress were in a persecuted plotline, the entity would intervene, which was in a way protecting them.

Ianthe Lawson’s beauty was undeniable, and the other actress was also pretty much a little beauty.

Now adding Ariel Zimmerman into the mix, it really wasn’t surprising that she thought this way.

Amber’s comment led quite a few viewers in the live chat astray.

["So it’s a big ghost that values beauty!"]

["Although it sounds ridiculous, I kind of get it."]

["Seeing a pretty lady being bullied, wanting to protect her is pretty normal."]

["This must be a male ghost, right?"]

["Who says only men like looking at beauties? We girls like it more, okay? Female ghosts definitely do too!"]

Compared to the previous restraint, the viewers’ comments had become quite unreserved, as if any ghost that dared show up would be subjected to their scrutiny.

Some remained rational, especially those familiar with Scarlett Jennings’ subtle expressions; they chose not to express an opinion.

They wanted to hear what their idol had to say.

Scarlett Jennings did not disappoint. She directly said,

"From the wisp of ghost energy that just leaked, the other party is indeed a big ghost, as I previously suspected. But a big ghost like this wouldn’t usually prank ordinary people over trivial likes or dislikes."

She explained, "The big ghosts that remain in the world often do so because their lingering obsessions prevent reincarnation, and any action they take is usually related to these obsessions."

Scarlett didn’t think the entity was simply unable to bear seeing beauties persecuted.

Rather than that, she leaned towards the idea that the entity couldn’t bear to see women persecuted.

And usually, someone with such an obsession would have suffered greatly from similar issues themselves.

Ianthe Lawson’s character was persecuted by her family and other men because she was a woman.

Ariel Zimmerman’s character, a princess who couldn’t control her marriage and was forced into a political union, was also persecuted.

So, why was the entity addressing this?

Thinking of this, Scarlett Jennings glanced at Ariel Zimmerman, pondered for a moment, and suddenly walked over to Director Xu, quietly saying something to him off-camera.

Director Xu seemed to hesitate for a moment but quickly pulled the screenwriter over for a discussion.

Not long after, it was announced that Ariel Zimmerman’s scenes were paused and that Scarlett Jennings and Sebastian Carew’s scenes would be shot in the afternoon.

In a regular crew, Scarlett Jennings’ actions would clearly be seen as cutting a co-star’s screen time to increase her own.

But here, everyone understood her intentions, including Ariel Zimmerman.

She intended to lure the big ghost out herself.

Scarlett could prevent the entity from escaping again, unlike Ariel, who had no means of self-defense.

According to Ianthe Lawson, the entity’s actions progressed from pranks to blatant disruptions and nearly resulted in injury just now. If unchecked, it might ultimately lead to someone’s death.

Scarlett Jennings was decisive, not explaining much to the live audience beforehand.

When filming resumed in the afternoon, viewers noticed a change in scenery.
