The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 344

Chapter 344: Chapter 344: A Million Secured

The tender voice still carried a tremble at the end.

As the words were spoken, the driver in the front seat became stiff and was unable to move in an instant.

The middle-aged couple in the back seat hadn’t yet realized what had happened when the car started to veer out of control, heading straight for the oncoming lane.

"Ah! Old Wang, what are you doing with the car?!"

The man in the back seat let out a roar, yet the driver, Old Wang, remained rigid with no movement whatsoever.

They finally realized something was amiss, but it was already too late.

When the car violently crashed into the guardrail, Ismeria Jennings had already shrunk herself under the seat, clutching the jade token around her neck while tremblingly chanting,

"Urgent as a decree, urgent as a decree..."

These were not words taught by Sister Scarlett, but her little friend said that people on TV always chanted this way.

...

There were few cars on this road, and a fair distance from the last traffic checkpoint, so the accident didn’t immediately draw attention.

However, less than five minutes after the car accident occurred, several cars followed by police vehicles rushed to the scene.

In the leading car were Ashton Todd and the Jennings Family, who had been tracking it all this way.

Upon seeing the van that had smashed into the guardrail, he subconsciously pointed and said,

"That’s the car!"

After saying this and seeing the van with its front crushed, Ashton Todd felt his heart drop.

It’s over, could his one-million-dollar deal have gone wrong?! He was more anxious than the Jennings Family, getting out of his car quickly before it even stopped, while pulling out several colored talismans.

Yelling out,

"I’m coming! I’m coming! I’m here to save people!"

In his hand, the talismans he waved not only included those for healing and disaster relief but even for soul settling. All were debts owed to Scarlett Jennings.

He couldn’t help it; his specialty was geomancy and fortune, not the Medical Talisman Technique.

After learning of Scarlett Jennings’ abilities, he had taken quite a few talismans on credit from her.

And now, they were coming into use.

With these talismans, even if the "one-million-dollar" car crash was severe or even if the soul had fled, he would be able to pull the spirit back immediately, at least holding on until the ambulance arrived.

But just as he was approaching the front of the crashed van, he saw the rear door fall off with a clatter, and a child’s head cautiously emerged from inside.

The child’s hair was messy, and the once clean and pretty face was now dirty – a pitiful sight.

But thankfully, completely intact without a trace of the imagined accident-induced injuries.

Ismeria Jennings had also seen the people rushing over and her originally steady expression suddenly collapsed, crying and running towards them with arms outstretched.

Seeing her, Ashton Todd’s heart softened as well, as he knelt down and opened his arms to the child.

Then he saw little Ismeria Jennings run past him without even glancing his way, and leap into the arms of Donovan Jennings, who was behind him.

"Wuu wuu wuu... Big Brother! The bad men caught me! It was so scary wuu wuu..."

Ashton Todd: ...

Well, at least the million dollars seemed secure.

Donovan Jennings first examined Ismeria Jennings from head to toe and, finding no injuries, he was somewhat relieved.

Meanwhile, the detectives following them quickly approached the van involved in the accident and started extracting a few kidnappers from inside.

This starkly contrasted with Ismeria Jennings’ unharmed state.
