The Fake Heiress Turns out to Be a True Tycoon!
Chapter 277: The Strong Sixth One

Chapter 277: Chapter 277: The Strong Sixth One

The black-haired doll looked a lot like the photos Donovan Jennings had taken for her.

It was probably from the same series of traditional-style BJD dolls, though its appearance and hairstyle were slightly different.

Director Clark’s purpose in sending this photo was also quite straightforward.

"The sixth guest for the next episode is about to be confirmed. This is a gift she’s prepared for you and the other female guest in advance. I heard that many young ladies like these kinds of dolls nowadays. What do you think? Do you like it?"

Director Clark actively tried to gain favor because he had no choice.

The "curse" of the program’s sixth guest had already spread, and there was even an online poll specifically for nominating the sixth guest.

Many fans even encouraged their rival fans to have their brothers or sisters participate in "Inspiration."

The reason being that they often bragged about their siblings, and now it was time to prove their character.

If you’re not afraid, go show them!

All this caused quite a stir online.

Despite the program’s huge online traffic attracting many envious glances, a lot of people were still worried about this so-called "curse."

Naturally, those with shady backgrounds refused outright without a second thought, while those who believed they were clean were afraid that they’d become tainted after the show.

In short, finding the sixth guest proved to be quite challenging.

It was only after much difficulty they found a candidate, and it was thanks to the fifth episode’s topic, someone Director Clark was familiar with—an actress whose character was well-guaranteed and had strong legal awareness.

Director Clark chose a guest this time, completely forgoing traffic and discussion, prioritizing safety instead.

Although the candidate felt her track record was safe enough, seeing Director Clark’s seriousness, plus the detailed rumors of the sixth guest curse online, she couldn’t help but feel apprehensive.

That’s why she prepared this gift, wanting Director Clark to test the waters first.

When Scarlett Jennings heard that it was a gift from the new guest for the next episode, her expression was a bit subtle.

She didn’t know whether it was a coincidence or if girls really liked playing with such dolls these days.

But she didn’t like them.

She was long past the age of liking dolls.

Compared to these finely crafted dolls, she preferred paper dolls or straw dolls.

Thinking this in her heart, she showed no trace of it on her face, instead cooperating fully,

"These dolls look nice. Can you have it sent to me by courier?"

She was curious whether Azura Loomis’ dolls differed from the dolls custom-made outside.

Director Clark initially treated the doll as a probe, not expecting Scarlett Jennings would want it immediately.

He felt he’d inadvertently stumbled upon a Mystical Sect genius’s secret hobby.

He laughed right away and said,

"Sure! I’ll tell her in a while, and have it couriered to you right away."

With the stone thrown into the water, Director Clark didn’t hesitate and sent Scarlett Jennings a photo of the new guest.

That was the main reason Director Clark sought Scarlett Jennings today.

"Scarlett, this is the sixth guest we’ve chosen for the upcoming episode, not yet announced online. What do you think... does it work?"

Before he was overly confident. Now reflecting on it, he felt like someone sitting atop a mountain of gold begging for food.

With a Mystical Sect genius like Scarlett on the show, he should have sought her advice earlier.

As a director, this didn’t count as losing face.

Scarlett Jennings wasn’t surprised by the photo he sent her.

What surprised her was the girl in the photo sent by Director Clark. Dressed in ancient costume, she had a striking, classic beauty at first glance.

That is, if it weren’t for the background of a trailer in the photo.

Scarlett Jennings wasn’t much into celebrities but barely recognized her as a promising young starlet rising in popularity in recent years.

Ianthe Lawson was a legit graduate from a drama academy, and since her debut remained focused on acting, with hardly any marketing or scandals. Except for promotional work with her production team, she barely appeared in variety shows. Casual viewers perceived her as a career-oriented actress.

And as a matter of fact, what Scarlett Jennings saw matched the online assessment.

Ianthe Lawson’s Fate Palace showed a very faint Marriage Palace, which contrasted with her prominent Career Palace, her nose slightly short, suggesting a more low-key and introverted personality.

Overall, Ianthe Lawson’s face showed hardly any issues, and seemed simpler than other guests.

Scarlett Jennings revealed what she saw.

Director Clark waited nervously for the result, akin to a student waiting for a teacher to announce semester test scores. Once Scarlett Jennings indicated there was no problem, he let out a huge sigh of relief and instantly regained his confidence as a variety show director.

"Ha! I knew my judgment was spot on this time!!"

With Scarlett Jennings’ "ironclad prediction," Director Clark confidently had the program team announce the fifth episode’s sixth guest selection that night.

Naturally, it sparked another online frenzy.

Scarlett Jennings didn’t follow online news anymore, instead researching BJD dolls. Just as she began, there was a rhythmic knock at the door,

"Scarlett, are you there!? It’s Stella!"

Scarlett Jennings knew who it was the moment she heard the knocking. Besides Sebastian Carew, her across-the-hall neighbor, no one else would come knocking at her dorm so late.

Looking at the door, Scarlett Jennings made a hand gesture, and the yellow paper figure lying by the window sprang to life, lightly hopping onto the door lock to open it for her visitor.

As soon as Stella Gibson came in, she saw Scarlett Jennings sitting at the computer desk, researching information.

Following the contributions from Luca Jennings and Donovan Jennings, Scarlett Jennings’ dorm was far removed from its initial simplicity and featured everything one might need, packed full of items.

Stella Gibson burst in with excitement, flopped onto the walnut-colored sofa behind Scarlett Jennings’ desk, holding up her phone as if ready to share gossip.

"You know about the new guest announcement for ’Inspiration,’ right? I saw lots of our 3rd-grade classmates in our group doing fortune-telling and face reading, trying to predict the luck for your next episode!"

Initially, not all of their batch of freshmen followed "Inspiration." But after participating in the previous episode and having a classmate like Scarlett Jennings as a main guest, they started to pay attention. Some even created small accounts to watch live streams.

Scarlett Jennings, only then recalling she had indeed joined the freshman group chat earlier, usually kept it muted.

She opened her phone to check out the discussions in the group.

Since they came from different family teachings, a few classmates skilled in divination and face reading were analyzing Ianthe Lawson’s appearance and the program’s upcoming fortunes.

Scarlett Jennings found that a few people described it more thoroughly than she told Director Clark, so she looked at it as a learning opportunity.

Stella Gibson wasn’t knowledgeable in these two areas but seriously read through the analyses, finally drawing a conclusion.

"Congratulations, you’re about to welcome a strong sixth guest!"

Scarlett Jennings smiled without commenting. Just as Stella Gibson was about to say something, she suddenly spotted Scarlett’s computer screen, and her head quickly moved forward, her doll-like face full of surprise,

"Scarlett, you like dolls too?"
