Chapter 445: Chapter 445 High Emotional Intelligence: I Never Interfere with Others’ Cause and Effect
Witnessing firsthand the power of Scarlett Jennings’ Immobilization Talisman, the young police officer’s worldview quietly shattered and reorganized today.
After accepting this fact, he couldn’t help but think that if the Talisman Paper could be used on the team members, they wouldn’t fear encountering some dangerous criminals in the future.
Once that Talisman is applied, it’s more reliable than handcuffs.
Scarlett Jennings met the eager eyes of the young officer and after a moment of silence, silently withdrew her hand,
"Each Immobilization Talisman can only be used three times. All these Talismans only have two uses left. Do you still want them?"
"I do, I do!"
The young officer nodded eagerly, thinking even if there was only one use, he’d still want it.
As he spoke, he couldn’t help but ask, "Can we ordinary people use this Talisman too?"
Scarlett Jennings nodded, "Yes."
She briefly explained the method, just like when she handed them to Ismeria Jennings before, emphasizing simplicity and ease of use.
Amber Livingston, standing by, was a bit curious, "Don’t you need to chant a spell?"
He had clearly heard her chanting a spell earlier.
Seeing the young officer also looking at her, Scarlett Jennings explained,
"The spell is to summon the spiritual power to remotely lock onto the aura. Directly applying it doesn’t require such trouble."
When she improved it back then, it was indeed to make it more convenient, and ordinary people could activate the rune with just one word.
Amber and the live audience immediately displayed an expression of having learned something new.
[So, when will the Talisman link be posted?]
[Hmm... I’ve learned how to use it, but there’s no Talisman.]
[Talismans come, talismans come from all directions. I won’t be picky about Birth Talismans or Slimming Talismans!]
Over there, the young officer glanced at the cameraman, turned his back to the camera, and quietly asked about the price of the four Talismans.
Scarlett Jennings simply said, "This Talisman has been used, there is no charge."
But the young officer was not having it, "Isn’t there still two uses left? No, I must pay for it."
Although he wanted to give this Talisman to his colleagues for their fieldwork, as a public servant, he couldn’t take anything unearned from the people.
If Scarlett Jennings didn’t accept the money, he’d rather not have it.
Scarlett Jennings paused for a moment, then said, "Give me three hundred."
Without saying a word, the young officer pulled out his phone and transferred 380 to her.
Scarlett Jennings glanced at it and fell silent again.
...
After completing the transaction, as the group was about to leave, suddenly, another group arrived at the police station’s lobby.
The man leading them, wearing a suit, paused when he saw Scarlett Jennings, nodded slightly towards her,
"Miss Jennings."
Scarlett Jennings took a closer look and recognized him.
Ah, a familiar face.
Yes, during the previous incidents when she was taken to the police station, it was this lawyer who handled the negotiations.
Since he showed up here, there must be something going on with the Jennings Family.
Scarlett Jennings thought it over for a moment and then guessed.
"Is it about Chase?"
The lawyer nodded, "Young Master Chase was pushed down the stairs and nearly killed. We’ve decided to formally sue Fiona Harper and Harry Whitley."
As they spoke, an officer led in a man and a woman, both looking somewhat disheveled.
Scarlett Jennings was momentarily surprised when she saw Harry Whitley. If she remembered correctly, this was the son of the Living Soul who possessed Mrs. Jennings’ body last time.
The wife who was nearly bullied and murdered last time was saved by her and Samuel Chalmers.
She had thought that by saving Esme Duarte, the future trajectory mentioned by the Living Soul would change.
But now, it seemed things were happening just as the Living Soul had predicted.
The man and the woman in front of her already had entangled fate lines.
The issue was that the line belonging to the man’s wife hadn’t broken yet, and a shallow line was branching from Fiona Harper’s.
And that line was exactly Chase’s bad relationship.
Scarlett Jennings truly hadn’t expected this.
She had already decided not to get involved in Chase’s matters anymore, yet things kept crossing her path.
One has to admit, the entanglement is quite deep.
Over there, Fiona Harper, initially being led by a female officer, caught a glimpse of Scarlett Jennings and the cameraman behind her, and immediately the recognized her.
Since Fiona Harper had planned to develop something with Chase, she had naturally researched the Jennings family members beforehand to avoid not recognizing anyone if she ever married into the family.
Scarlett Jennings’ viral show was something she had thoroughly looked into.
Instantly, an idea struck her, and she rushed over to block Scarlett and the others,
"Scarlett Jennings, I’m begging you, please ask Young Master Chase to let us go, okay? His falling down the stairs really has nothing to do with us. You’re his sister, can you please speak on our behalf?"
The live audience was momentarily confused by the sudden situation, but it wasn’t hard to infer the context from Scarlett’s earlier conversation with the lawyer.
The two cameramen from the show glanced at each other, unsure whether to continue streaming.
After all, it involved the private matters of a guest.
They hesitated, moving the camera away, but Fiona Harper intended to use public opinion pressure to force Chase to withdraw the lawsuit, so she kept trying to move towards the camera.
Initially, Scarlett felt annoyed when Fiona called her Chase’s sister, and then seeing her actions, there was no mistaking her intentions.
She straightforwardly spoke up,
"Firstly, I’m not his sister. I have only one brother, and his name is Donovan Jennings."
"Secondly, regarding the lawsuit Chase filed against you two, you should directly approach Chase. Asking me is useless; I never meddle in others’ karma."
After saying this, Scarlett didn’t give Fiona any chance to continue entangling and dodged past her, walking straight out of the police station.
The live audience all expressed they learned something new again.
[High emotional intelligence: I don’t casually meddle in others’ karma.]
[Low emotional intelligence: None of my business.]
[Hahahahaha!]
Over there, seeing Scarlett walking away without looking back, Fiona tried to pester her and shouted towards the camera,
"Miss Jennings, you can’t do this! The Jennings family can’t just muddle through like this, and rich people can’t bully others. As a public figure, are you just going to let your family bully the vulnerable?"
Every word from Fiona Harper attempted to incite the audience to oppose the elite and the common people.
The lawyer nearby had been displeased ever since Fiona blocked Scarlett. He quickly stepped forward to block her, speaking solemnly,
"Miss Harper, if you persist in this, I, as the Jennings family’s representative lawyer, will personally file an additional lawsuit against you for defamation and harming my client’s reputation."
Fiona Harper was startled by the lawyer’s attitude, but she felt dissatisfied,
"As a lawyer, you’re siding with the rich to bully us. How can you live with your conscience?"
She spoke with some grievance, "Which part did I get wrong just now? Scarlett and Chase are siblings. She’s shielding her family!"
The lawyer was already tired of arguing with this woman, motioning for the nearby female officer to restrain the suspect.
The female officer dared not let Fiona Harper continue babbling and was about to take her inside when suddenly, the lawyer’s phone rang from his pocket.
He picked up the call, and after a brief exchange, called out to those in front,
"Wait a moment."
With a very formal tone, the lawyer said,
"My client just called. In light of Miss Fiona Harper’s vile accusations against my client’s family, he decided to add a compensation claim of two million to the existing lawsuit."
Fiona Harper was incredulous, and Harry Whitley beside her staggered and fell onto the steps.
Two, two million!
Even if he sold himself, he couldn’t repay it!!
