The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 429

Chapter 429: Chapter 429 Scarlett Jennings Is in a Relationship

As soon as Selene Wright spoke, Lewis Harper immediately shut his mouth. He looked at Selene in disbelief, his voice trembling slightly,

"You—you can’t..."

Isn’t this blatant bullying?!

Alicia Sharp couldn’t help but laugh out loud as she watched from the side,

"You deliberately pursued Selene before, wasn’t it because of her status as the Wright Family’s eldest daughter? When you used her family background to benefit your own, you should have realized that her family could help you, but they could also ruin you."

The so-called Backlash works exactly like this.

Scarlett Jennings stole a look at Alicia, surprised by her clarity in such matters.

Over there, Lewis Harper’s face turned ugly upon hearing Alicia’s words.

Judging by Selene Wright’s expression, he knew she was serious.

It was either letting her vent with a beating, or awaiting the Wright Family’s retaliation against the Harper Family.

Lewis Harper basically didn’t have a choice.

Thus, for the next ten minutes, the private room was filled with pitiful wailing.

As Selene Wright was leaving, she even had someone take the ring from that mistress’s hand before marching out of the private room in high spirits with her group of friends.

Because she had vented her anger, Selene’s face didn’t carry a trace of sadness—instead, she looked utterly refreshed and relaxed. Upon stepping out, she glanced at Scarlett Jennings with admiration and said,

"You’re amazing! How did you know he took the ring? Did you figure out in the upstairs lounge that I’d been cheated on?"

It was clear that Selene Wright’s personality was truly carefree and open.

Scarlett Jennings didn’t answer her question directly; instead, she walked to the restaurant entrance and reminded her,

"You have a VIP card for this hotel, right? Has it been a while since you checked the account?"

Selene Wright nodded instinctively. "I do, but how..."

Mid-sentence, as if realizing something, her face instantly darkened. Within moments, she rushed to grab the manager and demanded to check the account. Upon checking, she nearly stormed back to the private room to thrash everyone again.

"That shameless woman stayed at the hotel using my card!"

Selene Wright was thoroughly disgusted.

The nearby trust-fund heirs were even more astonished.

They simply couldn’t understand this behavior.

Could someone be that poor?

Weren’t we told his family was also in business?

Scarlett Jennings didn’t speak further but offered a faint smile, quietly savoring her moment of triumph.

A group of them made their way back to the party, and Scarlett Jennings randomly performed three divinations. Once done, she brought up the idea of leaving again.

This time, Alicia Sharp didn’t try to stop her. She understood Scarlett’s willingness to showcase her abilities tonight was for her sake.

Though some participants felt their fun had been cut short, they didn’t dare compel her to stay.

Having witnessed Scarlett Jennings’s skills firsthand, they wouldn’t risk offending her.

Their families had taught them well: when encountering someone genuinely capable, you either form alliances or respect them from a distance.

Some even escorted Scarlett Jennings to the door.

Adam Jennings was among them, his expression slightly complicated as he observed the bustling crowd.

A few trust-fund heirs close to him quietly expressed their envy.

"You’re lucky to have a talented cousin like her. You must be secretly thrilled, huh?"

Adam Jennings: ...

Not really.

The main issue was, this talented cousin currently didn’t think much of him.

Then, amid the crowd, someone murmured quietly,

"But in the future, marriage alliances might be tricky."

"Yeah, someone this extraordinary—who could possibly dominate her?"

Adam Jennings’s sharp ears caught the whispers. He frowned slightly and glanced at them coldly, saying,

"This isn’t something you need to worry about—Scarlett Jennings already has someone."

Upon hearing this "someone," the nearby group’s eyes immediately brightened with curiosity, and they clamored for gossip,

"Who is it? Is he from the Taoism Academy too?"

"Was the stuff online real?"
