Old Lady Jennings couldn’t quite describe how she felt at that moment.
She just thought, this granddaughter truly clashed with her.
Why couldn’t she just quietly walk away and pretend she hadn’t heard anything?
...
Scarlett Jennings didn’t care how the old lady reacted. After saying her piece, she held her little beauty and headed straight for the entryway.
To her, whether the old lady spoke good or ill of her to outsiders had nothing to do with her.
After all, it didn’t affect her in any way.
Scarlett Jennings had come straight from the Chalmers Family’s place.
After a night of fermenting, last night’s trending topic had reached a conclusive state by this morning.
At first glance, Scarlett Jennings felt it wasn’t quite right. Her initial agreement with Samuel Chalmers hadn’t included this.
Although she knew it was too late to take down the trending topic now, Scarlett Jennings still asked for Samuel Chalmers’ opinion.
Samuel Chalmers simply asked her in return,
"Is there a difference between being exposed in front of your family and to the entire internet?"
Scarlett Jennings thought there was a huge difference, but before she could say anything, she heard him continue, "I think there’s not much difference."
Scarlett Jennings found herself at a loss for words to refute him.
After all, Samuel Chalmers had been dragged into the situation to help her in the first place.
Since he had no objections, she felt she had even less ground to stand on.
So, she simply went along with him, saying there was no difference.
Thus, the trending topic online was left as it was.
In fact, that’s all they could do.
Without timely PR the previous night, trying to take down the trending topic the next day would only make it seem more suspicious, like trying to hide something.
Scarlett Jennings thought, let’s just leave it.
It’s not a big deal.
Compared to the trending topic issue, Scarlett Jennings was more concerned about the escape of the system.
She felt it was necessary to inform her family about this.
Because this morning, she had received news from Daniel Wright’s side.
Last night, the police and the Security Bureau had jointly handled the missing person cases in the Ghost Realm, and later took stock of the players present that night.
They found that besides the photographer and the five people with Lucas Jennings, Ava Zimmerman and another person were non-players who had been unexpectedly pulled into the Ghost Realm.
Daniel Wright, through the footage captured by the photographer within the Ghost Realm, scrutinized every frame and was surprised to find Azura Loomis among the unexpected non-players.
Originally, Azura Loomis had escaped with the help of Old Man Ge, and afterward, her identity information was reported to the Sea City police by the Security Bureau. That’s why Daniel Wright’s side knew of her existence.
Although Azura Loomis had covered her face very well, during a scuffle among players inside the Barrier, her mask was accidentally pulled off, coincidentally captured by the existence-weakening photographer.
Along with previous comparisons of her physique, they basically confirmed that the person caught on video was indeed the fugitive Azura Loomis.
The Security Bureau is now re-initiating the search for Azura Loomis, and Daniel Wright felt it was necessary to inform Scarlett Jennings about this.
Scarlett Jennings last heard Azura Loomis’ name at Alicia Sharp’s birthday party and never expected Azura Loomis to appear in the Ghost Realm last night.
There were many people at the time, and Scarlett Jennings’ entire focus was on the Ghost Realm and those Evil Ghosts, so naturally, she didn’t notice.
But Azura Loomis and the confirmed escaped system appearing in the Ghost Realm simultaneously.
Scarlett Jennings didn’t think this was a coincidence.
"The system might have escaped with residual energy, and Azura Loomis, as a former host, might have been there for the system last night. It’s even possible that the system has already returned to her."
Scarlett Jennings gathered the family early in the morning just to discuss this issue.
After all, Azura Loomis and the Jennings Family have deep ties; nobody knows if she’ll act against them again.
"The Evil God System has been heavily damaged, even if it returns to Azura Loomis, it won’t pose a significant threat for the time being. However, everyone should remain vigilant daily."
Scarlett Jennings said this as she looked at a tablet in front of her.
On the other end was Chase Jennings, who was still pretending to be hospitalized.
Given that it involved Azura Loomis, Lucas Jennings specifically connected him online.
After all, Chase Jennings had the most involvement in matters concerning Azura Loomis.
