The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 412

Chapter 412: Chapter 412 His Dignity Doesn’t Allow It

Chase Jennings had almost believed it just now.

After all, Azura Loomis’s demeanor truly didn’t look like she was lying.

And her explanation did make sense.

Growing up together should have meant something—if it weren’t for the painfully harsh lesson before, Chase wouldn’t have been so indifferent watching her cry her heart out right in front of him.

But, just as a sliver of hesitation began to form in his heart...

He suddenly recalled Lucas Jennings’s words in the group chat, not to mention the row of [ +1 ] led by Scarlett Jennings.

If he seriously believed Azura’s story now, wouldn’t he really prove their point? A total fool?

With that thought, Chase snapped to his senses.

He had already stumbled once into this pit—his dignity as a Jennings Family member wouldn’t allow him to make the same mistake twice.

In fact, to prove he wasn’t the same old Chase Jennings anymore, he contemplated seizing her outright.

Yet, he worried about the sinister aura around her and didn’t dare to touch her recklessly.

Which gave him this idea.

Turn the tables and lock her in the car!

If it’s a battle of acting, then so be it—he could play the part!

Inside the car, Azura Loomis’s face was full of disbelief upon hearing Chase’s words.

She never expected that Chase Jennings, whom she thought was the easiest to manipulate, would deceive her!

The hesitation and inner conflict he’d displayed earlier had all been a charade!

A fleeting flash of annoyance crossed her eyes, but it disappeared quickly. Her expression returned to normal as she gazed outside the car at Chase with reddened eyes,

"Brother Chase! What are you saying? I didn’t deceive you, you’re misunderstanding me."

She spoke and lifted her hand, trying to open the car door, but it didn’t budge an inch. Anxiety brewed inside her, though outwardly, she still maintained a pitiful demeanor,

"Chase Jennings! Let me out, please. I’m scared..."

Even though Azura had applied makeup beforehand to conceal her pallor and make herself look more presentable,

her emotional performance with tears just now seemed to have swept off a part of her setting powder. Maybe her fortune was really running low—

because despite the finishing touch, the makeup was visibly deteriorating, leaving her looking distinctly unappealing.

Seeing Azura in this state only solidified Chase’s resolve.

Ignoring her pleading, he decisively took out his phone and spoke up in the group chat. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Chase Jennings: [ Scarlett Jennings, Azura Loomis came to find me. She’s locked in my car now. Come over—or better yet, call those Security Bureau guys. ]

Scarlett wasn’t someone who checked the group chat frequently, and while other family members replied to the message shortly after, there was still no word from her.

Lucas Jennings questioned him in the chat,

[ Really? Don’t tell me you’re just saying this to get back at me for what I said about you earlier today. ]

Unable to hold back, Chase sent him a voice call. He worried that if this dragged on too long, Azura might come up with some sinister escape technique, which would put him in danger.

"Shut up and give me Scarlett’s contact info now."

The truth was, not everyone in the Jennings Family had Scarlett’s contact info.

Lucas, upon hearing Chase’s demand, couldn’t help but recall what had happened with Adam Jennings last time.

He couldn’t resist teasing, "You’re not just using this as an excuse to trick me into giving you our sister’s contact info, are you?"

Chase was practically livid with this younger brother. He simply hung up and redirected his call to Donovan Jennings.

Fortunately, Donovan proved to be reliable. He answered the phone, and before Chase could even speak, he said,

"Send me your location. I’ll notify the Security Bureau myself."

After the incident last time, Donovan had kept the Security Bureau’s contact information on hand.

He couldn’t help it—his younger sister dabbled in mysticism and often dealt with those "things," so it was only prudent to maintain some connections in the Mystical Sect.
