Chapter 80 -80 The Fated Mrs. Chu?

The night was as dark as ink.

Samuel Chalmers stood in front of the bathroom mirror.

The man in the mirror had slightly damp hair, with droplets of water trickling down, landing precisely on his pale yet firm chest.

His muscles were shaped in smooth lines, solid yet not exaggerated, with no excess fat on his body except for the towel wrapped around his waist, concealing most of his long legs.

He looked at himself in the mirror, his chiseled features revealing little emotion.

After a moment, he slowly turned around.

As he turned his head, one could vaguely see, through the steam, the dragon-shaped golden birthmark that almost covered his entire back.

The young lady from the Jennings Family had mentioned he had Golden Light on him.

He thought, perhaps this so-called Golden Light might be related to the birthmark on his body.

His dark eyes concealed a faint cold glint as he walked out of the bathroom, changed into pajamas, smoothing the collar without a single crease before returning to his room.

On the desk in the room lay a document.

It was the information he had someone investigate about the Peach Wood Mark on his palm.

Once he knew this thing was related to the Mystical Sect, Samuel Chalmers found it much easier to investigate.

The material contained a printed page from an ancient book.

The accompanying image was an old hand-drawn mark matching the one in his palm, with only a simple annotation below.

[Peach Wood Mark, inked with a thousand-year-old peach bud, signifies that the bearers of the mark are fated individuals in this lifetime.]

A somewhat childish annotation, making one think it was something deliberately written on a pirated book to deceive people.

If it were before, Samuel Chalmers would have just laughed it off upon seeing such an explanation.

But after unexpectedly seeing Scarlett Jennings’ left palm with the same Peach Wood Mark tonight, Samuel Chalmers felt this might not be a joke.

So, the person left that Peach Branch here and made such a mark in his palm.

Just to let him know.

Scarlett Jennings was perhaps meant to be his future Mrs. Chalmers?

Thinking about how that young girl was only eighteen years old, Samuel Chalmers couldn’t help but frown.

This was really not a funny joke.

But somehow, he found himself somewhat intrigued.

Especially since the girl knew, yet deliberately lied, saying it was a Protective Mark.

She was belittling him.

Thinking of this possibility, Samuel Chalmers felt a cold smile on the verge of forming.

Although he wasn’t interested in any fated person, still…

He didn’t like being belittled.

In just an instant, Samuel Chalmers quickly concealed the expression on his face.

Recalling Scarlett Jennings’ serious face when she lied, he suddenly placed the material in his hand into the desk drawer with an impassive face.

Since she didn’t want to acknowledge it.

He wouldn’t acknowledge her proactively either.

He wondered, in their mutual avoidance, how this so-called destiny would play out.

…

Samuel Chalmers thought so, and the next day, the same person appeared again in front of his villa, staring at him in frustration.

“Is there something you need?” Samuel Chalmers raised an eyebrow at her.

Even though he knew the truth about the Peach Wood Mark, Samuel Chalmers did not intend to treat her specially.

However, Scarlett Jennings looked at him, or rather, at the Golden Light around him, with a serious expression.

“Yes, there is.”

Yesterday, Scarlett Jennings was forced to accept the fact that the little baby spirit was thrown into her hands, and today she planned to draw a few Gathering Shadow Talismans for it to nourish it.

But today, as soon as she rolled up her sleeves ready to work, she felt that the Spirit Gathering Array she had spent a fortune on in her room, the Spiritual Energy it gathered had run away!

Indeed.

The Spiritual Energy had gathered.
