Chapter 470: Chapter 470 My Granddaughter Is Very Capable

Scarlett Jennings woke up the next day only to find out that the internet world had turned upside down.

Although netizens failed to dig out Samuel Chalmers’ photo, his identity was thoroughly exposed.

Being the Young Master of the Chalmers Family, one of Sea City’s Four Great Families, was enough to cause online turmoil.

"Is this the legendary strong coupling?"

"This is a family alliance marriage! My girl definitely isn’t in this willingly!"

"That’s right, my girl is devoted to the common people, men only slow down her talisman drawing."

"Hmm... to be honest, this ’common people’ has a somewhat handsome silhouette."

"I don’t care, I’m taking this photo to every comment section I see."

The photo the netizen shared was of Samuel Chalmers carrying Scarlett Jennings towards the light, taken by a photographer. With netizens’ post-processing, the atmosphere in the photo was brought to the maximum level.

It was to the extent that passersby would ask which new drama series this still was from.

The Jennings Family and other connected insiders naturally saw this too.

It was only now that everyone realized that when Luca Jennings said his future son-in-law was the Chalmers Family Head at the summit, he really wasn’t bluffing.

Considering both families’ statuses, the trending topic wasn’t suppressed overnight, which basically indicated an unofficial announcement.

Briefly, even Luca Jennings and the retired Old Sir Jennings received numerous congratulatory messages.

Since Scarlett Jennings pointed out that the hardships Grandma Jennings suffered these years were all because of Azura Loomis, Alice Loomis and the Loomis Family had not visited since then.

These days, Grandma Jennings exercised alone with her caregiver for rehabilitation.

Well, maybe not entirely alone.

These days, whenever she strolled downstairs, she often saw the little fox Scarlett Jennings raised, sitting far off by the lawn watching her.

The fox seemed to know she didn’t like furry pets. Except for that one time when it carried her in a mad leap, it never tried to approach her again.

Yet it still infuriated Grandma Jennings.

A few days ago, when her walking was still a bit unsteady, the little fox purposely mimicked her walk from a distance.

When she wobbled, it wobbled along.

When she almost fell, it pretended to trip too.

Knowing that the little fox did this to make her laughable, Grandma Jennings grew angry, thus she became particularly dedicated to her rehabilitation, gritting her teeth through fatigue, managing to walk a short distance without a cane after a few days.

That day, as Grandma Jennings practiced downstairs, waiting for the little fox to "amaze" her, she unexpectedly received a call from an old friend.

After the initial chit-chat, the friend directly asked about Scarlett Jennings and Samuel Chalmers.

"Is it true? Kids mentioned these two were dating but I didn’t believe it. Is your family planning to ally with the Chalmers Family by marriage?"

The younger generation might purely enjoy gossip.

But for the older generation, the layers behind such gossip could involve much more.

Especially for families like the Jennings and Chalmers, once they ally by marriage, it represents a reshuffle of Sea City’s financial power.

This kind of powerful union would overshadows the other two great families and dictate the next decade or so.

This explains why, even though Grandma Jennings hadn’t mingled in social circles for several years, someone still reached out to her.

On hearing the query, Grandma Jennings raised an eyebrow, as if she’d anticipated it, serene as ever,

"It’s too early to talk of marriage. These youngsters are simply dating. We elders won’t interfere."

This made the friend on the other line slightly surprised, "Wasn’t this initiated by you?"

Because of Samuel Chalmers’ reputation in the circle, people agreed that his being with the newly acknowledged Jennings daughter had to be because of significant Jennings maneuvering.

This might even be the Jennings’ plan!

A plan to transform Sea City’s Four Great Families into two big giants!

Listening to her old friend’s implication, Grandma Jennings motioned to her caregiver, who promptly brought over a chair for her.

She sat and leisurely stated,

"How could it be? We never thought she’d be with that Chalmers boy. It wasn’t until he personally approached us that we learned of it."

Grandma paused, her voice tinged with a hint of ease,

"Speaking of which, my granddaughter is unlike ordinary people.

You must have heard; my granddaughter is not only capable and skilled but also has a strong mind of her own, so whatever she chooses to do, the family doesn’t intervene. She indeed never really needs us to worry about her."

Hearing this veiled bragging, her friend couldn’t resist a teasing remark,

"I heard you were not too pleased about her participating in a reality show?"

Grandma Jennings’ expression stiffened slightly at this remark, becoming solemn,

"Nonsense, my second child is an entertainer; if they can manage, so can my granddaughter, besides she didn’t join some ordinary show.

Haven’t you been following? Her reality show directly partnered with the police department; I heard they requested it officially. This isn’t a level that’s typically accessible in the entertainment industry."

Grandma Jennings rambled on, regardless of her previous stance toward Scarlett; since she’s faced with outsiders, her words were law.

Annoyed by Grandma Jennings’ implicit boasting, her friend opted for a topic change,

"You haven’t mingled with the old group much these years; I think it’s time you relaxed and socialized more. Let’s have a card game soon, and you should definitely join."

Grandma Jennings, longing for a chance to showcase her rehab progress, agreed without hesitation, not caring if her friend intended to mock her.

After hanging up, she felt utterly delighted.

Turning her head, she spotted the little fox unknowingly squatting nearby, tilting its head directly at her, clearly having overheard her conversation.

For a moment, Grandma felt awkward. With a stern expression, she gestured the fox to be quiet.

Signaling it to keep silent about it all.

Her principle was that she could boast to outsiders, but she mustn’t let family members find out.

Otherwise, wouldn’t that be a slap in her own face?

Grandma Jennings didn’t think she was that thick-skinned.

After saying this, she saw the little fox wag its tail at her, which she took as agreement.

Just as she let out a sigh of relief, the little fox suddenly turned its gaze elsewhere and visibly lit up.

Grandma’s heart skipped a beat, following the fox’s gaze she turned, unexpectedly seeing Scarlett Jennings standing at the garden entrance, her expression unreadable.

Grandma felt the world go dark, looking at her in disbelief, her voice trembling,

"When... when did you come back?"

Scarlett looked at Grandma, whose expression was akin to seeing a ghost, maintaining her composure as she casually signaled the little fox, which immediately scampered towards her.

Bending over to pick up the pretty little fox for a cuddle, she turned her gaze back to Grandma, answering her previous question,

"When you mentioned, ’my granddaughter is immensely talented’."

Grandma Jennings: ...
