Chapter 297: Chapter 297 Scarlett Jennings’s Relationship Exposed
After the situation was resolved, Samuel Chalmers thought about what she had said about her spiritual power being exhausted, so he offered to take her back to the hotel to rest.
Scarlett Jennings, however, looked at him and didn’t want to leave, "Can we... have a meal before I go?"
Samuel didn’t think she purely wanted to eat, "Hungry?"
"Not hungry," Scarlett shook her head and spoke the truth, "but staying with you helps me recover faster."
Just being in the private room a little while ago, she felt the spiritual power she had consumed slowly recovering.
She didn’t even use the Gathering Spirit Talisman, just being there, she felt the remnants of her spiritual power being purified and quietly circulating throughout her body.
Scarlett knew without thinking what caused this.
It had to be because of Samuel Chalmers in front of her.
Great, she discovered a new feature on this boss again.
This thigh was really irresistible for her to hold on to.
Samuel obviously didn’t expect he had this kind of "effect," especially since she so openly stated her "intentions."
He didn’t know whether to be amused or annoyed.
However, he didn’t mind this kind of "ulterior motive."
With Scarlett suggesting they eat, Samuel wouldn’t be stingy about one meal.
He directly ordered the restaurant to send over some specialty dishes and even ordered dishes that took time to prepare to give her more time to stay.
The meal lasted nearly two hours.
Something that had never happened in Samuel’s past dining experiences.
Scarlett was completely satisfied with the meal.
Her face no longer had the initial paleness and had a rosy glow of vitality.
For those aware, she just had a meal.
For those not, they might think she absorbed someone’s essence.
When this metaphor popped into Samuel’s mind, even he found it strangely awkward.
He took her back to the hotel.
As she was getting out of the car, Samuel suddenly reached out to her, this time with his palm up, in a gesture asking for something.
Scarlett blinked, a bit confused.
Then she heard Samuel say, "The Golden Light, didn’t you want to pluck some?"
Ever since she confessed she had "golden light" and expressed her desire to rub it off him, every time they met after that, she would casually take a couple of bits along.
At first, she would mention it, but later she would just take.
After numerous times, Samuel got used to it.
He assumed she forgot when he didn’t see her usual actions that evening.
When Scarlett heard the boss taking the initiative to remind her to pluck the golden light, her emotions were mixed.
To think whether it was Donovan Jennings or those second-generation heirs who had contact with Samuel Chalmers, they all called him the Great Demon King behind his back.
But since she’d been in contact with him, though he seemed a bit cold and distant, he was easy to talk to and even kind at times.
She couldn’t understand why others had such deep misunderstandings about him.
But here, Scarlett had to say to him,
"Samuel Chalmers, you’re a good person."
Not a demon king at all.
She earnestly said it, reached out, quickly snatched two bits of golden light from above his palm, then turned away, opened the car door, and got out.
Samuel: ???
Maintaining the upwards hand position, Samuel’s expression gradually turned serious.
Was she hinting at something?
The driver, feeling the eerie silence in the back seat, gripped the steering wheel, his hands slightly trembling.
Oh no.
He seemed to have heard the scene of the boss being turned down...
Was he going to lose his job?
Who would’ve thought that with the boss’s family background and appearance, he’d also get handed the friend zone card!!!
...
Scarlett had no idea a single sentence of hers led to such conjectures, not even thinking that the next time she saw Lucas Jennings or Alicia Sharp, she’d have to set the record straight for the boss.
Back in her room, after washing up, she slept dreamlessly through the night.
Yet on this very night, a storm quietly began to brew.
The next day, as she woke up and was about to prepare for the day’s shoot, the room doorbell rang urgently and unexpectedly.
"Scarlett! Scarlett!"
It was Ariel Zimmerman’s voice, with evident urgency.
Scarlett didn’t know what could be so urgent early in the morning but went to open the door for her.
Upon opening the door, she was momentarily stunned.
Because Ariel’s makeup was visibly only half-done, even her hairstyle was half-complete, and she held her phone with a tense expression.
Seeing her, Ariel quickly pushed her into the room, shut the door behind them, and looked at Scarlett with a grave expression,
"Scarlett, did you see this morning’s trending topic?"
Scarlett was puzzled, raising an eyebrow without speaking.
Ariel saw this and knew she hadn’t checked her phone yet, so she said,
"Scarlett, stay calm, things like this are actually quite common. Even if it gets exposed, it’s no big deal. Trust me, I’ve been there."
Scarlett listened to her talking for a while without getting to the point, decisively took the phone from Ariel, and after quickly unlocking it with the screen facing Ariel, only then did she look at the content on the screen that hadn’t been exited.
Top trending on Weibo.

The picture was a somewhat distant rain scene photo, on an ancient street in dim light, Scarlett Jennings and another tall figure stood facing each other under an umbrella.
The man’s figure was almost hidden in the darkness, with only Scarlett’s profile faintly visible.
If the two were just standing facing each other, it wouldn’t be a big deal, but the photo captured the man reaching out to hold the hand with which Scarlett held the umbrella, and she showed no sign of resisting.
This was very solid evidence.
Moreover, despite the dim light, the silhouettes of both in the rain gave an inexplicable touch of romance, further fueling imagination.
To say one photo might be a misunderstanding, when the news broke, someone else posted a picture, showing Scarlett getting out of a car outside a certain hotel last night.
The photographer deliberately commented, last night I thought it was the production crew’s car. Now thinking back, how could a production crew afford such a luxury car to transport guests?
So Weibo erupted early in the morning.
[Ahhhhh! I woke up to find my girl is in love?!]
[Isn’t she a student from the Taoism Academy? How can she be in a relationship?]
[Get it right, Taoism Academy isn’t a nunnery. Who said you can’t date?]
[Learn about living Taoists.]
[She’s only eighteen! What’s wrong with being in love at eighteen?]
[I just want to know who that guy is. No ordinary man deserves my girl!]
[I’m camping here today to see if anyone dares say my girl is clinging to a sugar daddy!]
[Who dares? She’s a sugar momma herself, okay?]
To be fair, since the previous exposure of Jennings Family’s heiress, the comment section didn’t have any nasty speculation.
At least Scarlett didn’t spot any with a quick glance over.
After quickly scanning through the news, Scarlett handed the phone back to Ariel.
Ariel had originally worried she would fret over the news of her relationship being exposed, only to see Scarlett watching it all with a calm face, as if she’d just read some unrelated gossip piece.
