The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 368

Chapter 368: Chapter 368: The Third Target, Scarlett Jennings

At night, Adam Jennings’ dormitory.

Adam Jennings, carrying a change of clothes, entered the bathroom.

The originally quiet dormitory admitted one person, precisely the male student who had invited Adam Jennings to play ball during the day.

He looked around the dorm, listening to the sound of water from the bathroom, and asked casually as if on a whim, "Adam Jennings, are you in there?"

"Ah." A response came from Adam Jennings in the bathroom, amidst the sound of the cascading water.

The male student steadied his nerves, listening intently to the movements from the bathroom, making sure the person inside would not come out anytime soon, and then turned to lock the dorm door from the inside. He promptly took out a small doll, the size of a palm, from his bag.

Hesitant for a moment, he climbed onto Adam Jennings’ bed and carefully stuffed the doll into the pillow’s core.

As he was preoccupied with his covert activities, he failed to notice the bathroom door quietly opening.

Adam Jennings, neatly dressed, stood behind him, his face darkened, and asked, "What are you doing?"

...

Azura Loomis waited in the dorm until late at night, finally hearing the news of a police alert from the male dormitory.

"It’s said that someone in the boys’ dorm was caught stealing, caught red-handed on surveillance cameras! They called the cops and took him away immediately."

A girl in the same dormitory shared the latest gossip, immediately piquing the curiosity of two others,

"Who is it? Who even installs surveillance in a dorm room?"

"It’s that freshman heartthrob from the financial department, from the Jennings Family, you know? They are true tycoons. A single watch from them costs over a million, so installing a surveillance camera isn’t over the top, right?"

"But calling the police directly... Isn’t that a bit much? After all, they are roommates from the same dormitory, and nothing was actually stolen. Getting into college isn’t easy for anyone."

"Haha, if they know getting into college isn’t easy, why steal from a dorm mate? Just because they didn’t succeed, does it not count as stealing? Once a hand is extended, that’s stealing. If you let them off easy the first time, there will be countless more incidents to come!"

"That’s right, I also support calling the police. They should take them down in one go, so nobody dares to try something like this again."

The three of them took turns commenting, and someone, as if something occurred to them, asked Azura Loomis, who had been quiet,

"Azura, I remember you have a good relationship with that Adam Jennings. Do you think what he did was too much?"

Azura Loomis: ...

Azura Loomis didn’t want to say anything.

Just now, Adam Jennings’ Goodwill Value has directly dropped to below twenty points.

She knew he was growing wary of her, which is why she had deliberately arranged for someone to plant the doll. She didn’t expect it would still be discovered.

Adam Jennings must have seen the doll and guessed it was her doing.

At this point, if Azura doesn’t realize there’s a problem, then she’s truly foolish.

Why would Adam Jennings’ Goodwill Value drop so drastically without reason?

Even when Scarlett Jennings was targeting her, Adam Jennings only ever suspected her slightly, decreasing the points by one, two, three, four, or five.

Such a drastic decline in Goodwill Value definitely indicates he’s sure she’s the one behind it all.

Why was he so sure? After thinking it over, it could only be because the doll’s clothing had given her away...

[System: It is suggested that the host re-examines the placement of the other concealed items. If the objects previously arranged are not in their original locations, it indicates that not only has the host been discovered, but the existence of this system has also been exposed.]

Undoubtedly, the only person who could have discovered this is Scarlett Jennings.

Azura Loomis had come to realize this as well and was somewhat blaming the system,

"You clearly said before that under the concealment of your System Energy, even if it’s a master spiritualist, they wouldn’t be able to detect it."

This is already how many times now!
