The Fake Heiress Turns out to Be a True Tycoon!
Chapter 85: Why is There Another Questioner?

Chapter 85: Chapter 85: Why is There Another Questioner?

Luca Jennings furrowed his brow slightly.

His own father hadn’t even spoken yet, so what did it mean for his second brother to take charge like this?

Even though he didn’t want Scarlett to attend some Taoism Academy either, after the last incident of making Scarlett give up her room, he’d learned to ask his daughter’s opinion first.

"Michael, Scarlett has her own thoughts about which school she wants to attend. As her uncle, it’s overstepping to refuse on her behalf."

Michael Jennings wasn’t intimidated by his brother speaking. He turned his head and said,

"Big brother, I am doing this for her own good! I’ve never even heard of this academy; aren’t you afraid Scarlett might pick up bad habits there? Are you planning to have her become a nun?"

Saying something so bluntly in front of the admissions officer was indeed impolite.

But Michael Jennings couldn’t care less.

He felt that his brother had changed ever since they reconnected with this daughter.

He feared he might follow in the same confusion.

"Ahem... A Taoist priest and a nun are not the same; becoming a nun is related to the Buddha Sect," the admissions officer dressed in a Taoist robe smiled and explained.

Michael Jennings glanced briefly at him.

To him, it was all the same.

It was one thing if his niece was eccentric at home, but he wouldn’t allow her to embarrass the family outside.

As a music producer, he couldn’t afford such a disgrace.

Donovan Jennings paid no mind to his uncle’s attitude and simply looked over to Scarlett Jennings,

"Scarlett, have you learned anything about this school?"

Unlike other family members, he had witnessed Scarlett Jennings’ talents firsthand and didn’t oppose her applying to a specialized academy in this field. But the prerequisite was that the school had to be reputable and not fraudulent.

After all, in these times, there were many schools that were all show and no substance.

Scarlett Jennings, who had been silent up to this point, turned her head slightly upon hearing Donovan’s words,

"I know about it, but I’m not familiar with it."

Previously, the Temple Master from Clear Breeze Temple talked mostly about the Taoism Academy at Capital University.

She indeed wasn’t familiar with the academy at Sea University.

But that didn’t stop her from being somewhat intrigued.

She remembered Boss Chalmers mentioning before that her master once claimed to have been a lecturer at Sea City Taoist Academy.

Later, she also looked up information about this academy online.

But there was very little introduction available.

"Our Sea City Taoist Academy is one of only three nationally certified academies with prestigious university qualifications; you can rest assured on this point."

The admissions officer remained courteous and didn’t show displeasure at being questioned.

However, the Jennings Family grew more skeptical.

A Taoism Academy with prestigious qualifications?

Why did it sound so unbelievable?

Brianna Jennings didn’t oppose her niece having her own pursuits, but she advised,

"Scarlett, attending university is not just about earning a degree; it’s also about gaining experience and establishing connections for future integration into society. I suggest you choose carefully."

The twin brothers beside them were also gazing at this cousin with amazement.

Unlike the Jennings brothers, Marshall Anson and Anthony Anson had only met Scarlett Jennings once when she returned to the Jennings Family last time. But they heard from Adam and Chase about the incident where she almost ran away from home recently.

The two brothers, unlike Adam and the others, didn’t hold anything against their sister. On the contrary, they thought she was pretty and surely not as bad as Adam described.

But... was their sister actually interested in becoming a Taoist priestess?

"Sister, if you attend the Taoism Academy, will you become a priestess afterward?" the younger twin Anthony Anson couldn’t help but chuckle while interjecting.

The Jennings Family imagined Scarlett Jennings becoming a priestess and their expressions turned even more peculiar.

Scarlett Jennings was generally tolerant of people who meant no harm and shook her head when she heard this, "That’s not the same."

"Perhaps there are some misunderstandings about our Taoism Academy. How about this: I will first give Scarlett an introduction about our school..."

The Taoism Academy admissions officer said as he walked over, retrieving a few ancient book-bound booklets from his backpack.

Seeing this, Michael Jennings frowned and was about to refuse, but then heard a call from the reception office. Uncle Ming returned, this time with obvious joy on his face.

"Sir, teachers from Capital University, Grand Cathay University, and Sea University have all arrived."

Upon hearing this, the mixed emotions brought by the Taoism Academy admissions officer were instantly replaced by the joy of this news.

For the moment, everyone couldn’t be bothered about whether Scarlett Jennings would attend some Taoism Academy and instead smiled, waiting for the arrival of these admissions officers.

Adam Jennings subtly glanced at Scarlett Jennings beside him. He didn’t speak, but the meaning in his eyes was clear.

He was different from her.

She was only accepted by what seemed like an unreliable Taoism Academy, while he had choices among the top universities in the country.

The Jennings Family all perked up, waiting for the admissions officers. Meanwhile, the Taoism Academy admissions officer appeared to feel threatened and eagerly laid out the booklets, carefully introducing their school’s advantages to Scarlett Jennings!

At this moment, the admissions officers from Capital University finally arrived.

As soon as they entered, they were met with the eager gazes of the entire Jennings Family.

Odessa’s gaze was especially intense among them.

The teachers were first surprised by the wealth of the Jennings Family and the neatness of the family gathering, but quickly remembered their mission for this trip, knowing that the results of the college entrance examinations were about to be announced.

Their eyes skimmed over the boys in the room and then focused on the only two girls in the living room.

"May I ask which one of you is Scarlett Garrison?"

This time, they learned their lesson and announced the name upfront.

They couldn’t afford to repeat the same blunder.

Odessa had already prepared to stand up and greet the teachers on behalf of her son. Upon hearing this, her entire expression froze on her face.

Adam Jennings’ cheek muscles twitched as he once again incredulously turned to look at Scarlett Jennings.

The rest of the Jennings Family wasn’t much better.

Why were they here for Scarlett Jennings again? And this time, it wasn’t a second-rate college’s admissions officers!

Yet Old Sir Jennings remained composed, signaling Uncle Ming to invite them in and have a seat while introducing Scarlett Jennings to them.

The admissions officers, in fact, had already determined who Scarlett Garrison was as they approached.

After all, she already had several booklets laid out in front of her!

Next to her, a peculiar man in Taoist robes was detailing something!

Was someone a step ahead of them?

The admissions officers instantly went into competitive mode.

Luca Jennings confirmed that the people in front of him were indeed looking for Scarlett, and for once, his usually composed face showed a hint of excitement,

"Scarlett is my daughter. Are you here because her college entrance exam results are out?"

The Sea University teacher, who knew Luca Jennings as the only one who had previously dealt somewhat with the Jennings Family, was the first to speak, smiling as he offered congratulations,

"Yes, Scarlett achieved a high score of 738 in this college entrance examination, earning her the title of top scorer for this year’s Sea City exams. We have come to sincerely invite Scarlett to attend Sea University."

The Grand Cathay and Capital University teachers immediately followed suit, not to be outdone,

"We at Capital University also warmly invite Scarlett Jennings to join us!"

"We at Grand Cathay University also warmly invite Scarlett Jennings to join us!"

The eyes of the admissions officers were all filled with enthusiasm, leaving the Jennings Family stunned.

Especially Adam Jennings, who couldn’t believe it when he heard the score of 738.

Chase Jennings directly questioned, "Impossible! Have you made a mistake?"

Scarlett Jennings, the top scorer in the college entrance exam?

How could she be?!

The admissions officers from the schools frowned at hearing these doubts, ready to reaffirm the results, but then Lucas Jennings suddenly spoke with seriousness and certainty, underlined by a hint of excitement,

"It’s true!"
