The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 418

Chapter 418: Chapter 418 Scarlett Jennings’s Method

Alice Loomis appeared completely natural, as though she were a genuine member of the Jennings Family.

It was evident that her relationship with Grandma Jennings had advanced rapidly during her days back at the academy.

Scarlett Jennings said nothing, merely nodded slightly toward Grandma Jennings before leading Nathan White into the house.

Uncle Ming, having already been informed that Nathan White would be staying at the house for two days, had ahead of time prepared a room for him.

Lucas Jennings heard the commotion above and almost immediately bolted downstairs.

"Sis! You’re back?!"

The boy gazed at Scarlett with eager eyes before finally noticing Nathan White. Casually, he greeted him,

"Brother White, you’re here too? Perfect timing—Dashiell and I are teaming up later. Want to join? We just happen to need one more healer."

Nathan White looked at him, somewhat bewildered.

Scarlett Jennings remained quiet for a moment before speaking, "The kind of healing you need is quite different from Nathan’s specialty."

Lucas responded matter-of-factly, "Healing is healing, isn’t it? Medical skills are universal."

His tone brooked no dissent as he essentially assumed Nathan’s agreement without waiting for a response and then leaned in closer to Scarlett, speaking in a conspiratorial tone,

"Sis, did you notice that person next to Grandma?"

Scarlett shot him a glance, "I saw."

"Do you think Grandma’s losing her marbles? Did she not learn her lesson with Azura Loomis? Sis, you should check if they’ve cursed her in some way!"

Lucas spoke with visible concern.

Scarlett shook her head, "You’re overthinking it. There’s no curse involved." freēwēbnovel.com

To her, the elderly woman simply enjoyed stepping into the same hole twice for no apparent reason.

"Even so, it’s irritating,"

Lucas grumbled, "Sis, should we think up a plan to kick her out? Summon a Big Ghost to scare her away?"

Lucas clearly felt annoyed; first Azura Loomis, and now Alice Loomis—it felt to him like Grandma Jennings had officially lost her mind.

And his brother.

"Oh yeah, my brother’s acting strange too. Lately, he’s been unreasonably nice to an ugly girl,"

When Lucas said the words "ugly girl," he deliberately lowered his voice; after all, Chase Jennings had scolded him for being shallow and disrespectful before when he made similar remarks.

But seriously, this Ava Zimmerman was undeniably unattractive—Lucas felt he was simply stating a fact.

Sure, Ava had helped his brother before, but it wasn’t as though she’d saved his life. Was that really a reason to go to such extravagant lengths for her?

His sister, a bona fide life-saving benefactor, didn’t even enjoy such devotion.

First, it was overseeing her career, then buying clothes and supplements for her. He even invited her over for dinner at their home.

Oh, and word was that he’d been reaching out to a famous plastic surgeon over the past two days, supposedly to help Ava with skin grafts and scar removal.

Mind you, the last time Chase had gone to such effort had been for Azura Loomis.

As his younger sibling, Lucas genuinely started feeling worried about his foolish older brother.

When Scarlett Jennings heard him use the words "ugly girl," her expression shifted slightly as she instinctively recalled the male ghost from the eighteenth floor describing that girl.

But whether it was her or not still needed confirmation.

Shaking her thoughts away, Scarlett simply replied, "You don’t need to scare Grandma. She won’t let Alice Loomis come around again."

Lucas perked up instantly, "Sis, do you have a plan?!"

"Not exactly a plan. You’ll know soon enough if it works,"

Scarlett didn’t elaborate further, leaving Lucas behind as she led Nathan White to settle down and unpack.

By lunchtime, Alice Loomis was conspicuously absent.

Perhaps understanding that the family still harbored grievances toward the Loomis Family, Grandma Jennings had let Alice Loomis into the house but hadn’t offered her a seat or saved her a meal.

At the dining table, Nathan White, on the other hand, joined the meal.

Grandma Jennings treated Nathan White—the "Divine Doctor" who had cured her—with the utmost politeness and hospitality, going so far as to order a lavish spread of dishes.

But toward Scarlett Jennings, Grandma’s attitude remained slightly awkward.
