After the situation was resolved, Samuel Chalmers thought about what she had said about her spiritual power being exhausted, so he offered to take her back to the hotel to rest.
Scarlett Jennings, however, looked at him and didn’t want to leave, "Can we... have a meal before I go?"
Samuel didn’t think she purely wanted to eat, "Hungry?"
"Not hungry," Scarlett shook her head and spoke the truth, "but staying with you helps me recover faster."
Just being in the private room a little while ago, she felt the spiritual power she had consumed slowly recovering.
She didn’t even use the Gathering Spirit Talisman, just being there, she felt the remnants of her spiritual power being purified and quietly circulating throughout her body.
Scarlett knew without thinking what caused this.
It had to be because of Samuel Chalmers in front of her.
Great, she discovered a new feature on this boss again.
This thigh was really irresistible for her to hold on to.
Samuel obviously didn’t expect he had this kind of "effect," especially since she so openly stated her "intentions."
He didn’t know whether to be amused or annoyed.
However, he didn’t mind this kind of "ulterior motive."
With Scarlett suggesting they eat, Samuel wouldn’t be stingy about one meal.
He directly ordered the restaurant to send over some specialty dishes and even ordered dishes that took time to prepare to give her more time to stay.
The meal lasted nearly two hours.
Something that had never happened in Samuel’s past dining experiences.
Scarlett was completely satisfied with the meal.
Her face no longer had the initial paleness and had a rosy glow of vitality.
For those aware, she just had a meal.
For those not, they might think she absorbed someone’s essence.
When this metaphor popped into Samuel’s mind, even he found it strangely awkward.
He took her back to the hotel.
As she was getting out of the car, Samuel suddenly reached out to her, this time with his palm up, in a gesture asking for something.
Scarlett blinked, a bit confused.
Then she heard Samuel say, "The Golden Light, didn’t you want to pluck some?"
Ever since she confessed she had "golden light" and expressed her desire to rub it off him, every time they met after that, she would casually take a couple of bits along.
At first, she would mention it, but later she would just take.
After numerous times, Samuel got used to it.
He assumed she forgot when he didn’t see her usual actions that evening.
When Scarlett heard the boss taking the initiative to remind her to pluck the golden light, her emotions were mixed.
To think whether it was Donovan Jennings or those second-generation heirs who had contact with Samuel Chalmers, they all called him the Great Demon King behind his back.
But since she’d been in contact with him, though he seemed a bit cold and distant, he was easy to talk to and even kind at times.
She couldn’t understand why others had such deep misunderstandings about him.
But here, Scarlett had to say to him,
"Samuel Chalmers, you’re a good person."
Not a demon king at all.
She earnestly said it, reached out, quickly snatched two bits of golden light from above his palm, then turned away, opened the car door, and got out.
Samuel: ???
Maintaining the upwards hand position, Samuel’s expression gradually turned serious.
Was she hinting at something?
