Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Just Let Him Meet the Ancestor

I don’t know why, but Scarlett Jennings was feeling a bit guilty at the moment.

It wasn’t because there was a marriage contract set by their master between them.

Although this was a fiancé chosen by her master, she didn’t acknowledge it, and Samuel Chalmers didn’t know the true meaning of the mark. Naturally, she pretended it didn’t exist.

She was feeling guilty mostly because she had just used her skills on Lydia Patterson.

Usually, she wouldn’t use mystical methods on ordinary people.

The last time she used a Truth Talisman on Emma White was the first time.

This time with Lydia Patterson was the second time.

She really had no choice.

Rather than reasoning, she preferred to let reality make others shut up.

She felt relieved that Samuel Chalmers didn’t seem to have noticed what just happened.

He just pointed to the little fox sitting properly by his feet, pretending to be a military dog, and said,

"Your fox, I’ve brought it back to you."

Scarlett Jennings felt a bit embarrassed, as it wasn’t the first time her little fox had run to the Chalmers Family.

Not only did the little fox like to snuggle up to him, the little spirit child liked to do the same.

Her Spiritual Energy from the Spirit Gathering Array also tended to flow towards him, and she had to frequently confirm his whereabouts to avoid their paths crossing.

Scarlett Jennings didn’t like to trouble people.

But she indeed caused Boss Chalmers quite a bit of inconvenience.

"I was just about to come and get it."

Scarlett said, pausing for a moment, "I’ll try to keep them in check so they don’t bother you."

Samuel Chalmers’s expression didn’t show much, and he just gave a faint "mm."

Scarlett seemed to remember something and added,

"I’ll be starting college in a month and a half, so I won’t need to keep checking with you about avoiding times."

Upon hearing this, Samuel Chalmers seemed to move his eyebrows slightly.

After a moment, he took out a box from his pocket and handed it to her.

"I couldn’t make it to the Jennings Family’s banquet today, so consider this a gift for starting college."

He hadn’t planned on coming back so early today, and even the gifts for the Jennings Family’s kids were sent over in advance.

But upon reflection, he and she had a destined connection.

He didn’t want to acknowledge it, but the mark was clearly in his palm. Samuel Chalmers felt he should at least be considerate.

Especially since she was soon entering such an important stage as university.

Scarlett Jennings was a bit surprised that Boss Chalmers actually gave her a gift for starting college, but she politely accepted it. When she opened it, it was a Nine-tailed Fox brooch.

Its delicate and intricate design naturally reminded one of a Nine-tailed Fox, with diamonds embedded in the tips of the tails, boasting exquisite and unique craftsmanship.

Scarlett Jennings’s gaze instinctively followed the brooch to the little fox by Samuel’s feet.

Unfortunately, her fox was just an ordinary pet fox.

Not some Nine-tailed.

"Thank you, Mr. Chalmers, it’s beautiful."

Scarlett carefully tucked the box into her handbag and asked him,

"The banquet just started, would you like to join, Mr. Chalmers?"

Samuel’s main intention was to give her the college gift, and since he met her outside, he didn’t bother going in.

He didn’t say anything, but his attitude was clear.

Scarlett then bent over to pick up the pretty little fox from near Samuel’s feet and was about to say goodbye, but then heard Samuel abruptly ask her,

"What did you do to the Patterson Family’s young master just now?"

His voice was pleasant, though indifferent, it was still hard to dislike, but equally, it was rare for anyone to discern his emotions from his tone.

Scarlett Jennings just silently pressed her lips together.

Turns out he saw everything.

Since she was caught bullying an ordinary person, Scarlett didn’t bother hiding it and directly said,

"Nothing much, just let him meet his ancestors."

Samuel raised an eyebrow, "Meet his ancestors?"

Scarlett smiled and nodded, "Yes, the real ancestors."

She knew last time that when she went to the Patterson Family’s place, there were one or two ancestors left behind in the Patterson Family’s villa.

Lydia Patterson had been hit with a Shadow Talisman of the same lineage by her, so he’d have the opportunity to "talk" with their ancestors from the Patterson Family, saving him from wasting his time loving this one and that one every day.

That was solely because she respected the late old lady from the Patterson Family.

Otherwise, she could’ve just sent a wave of Shadow Energy making Lydia meet ghosts directly, and he’d probably have a heart attack on his way back home tonight.

Samuel Chalmers, seeing her slightly mischievous look as if she had just pulled a prank, found her more lively.

After all, the person in front of him was only eighteen.

Clearly only eighteen, but she often put on a facade of indifference to everything.

It ultimately boiled down to the Garrison Family treating her poorly.

Thinking about this, Samuel Chalmers gave his intended fiancée a bit more patience.

His thin lips pressed lightly as he said,

"I won’t be around the villa much in the coming days, so you can draw your Talismans on your schedule."

After a pause, he added,

"Don’t stay up all night drawing."

Scarlett Jennings, upon hearing this, realized it was about her mentioning staying up overnight to draw Talismans while he was on a business trip the other day.

She thought Boss Chalmers was always busy, yet he remembered what she said.

A subtle and delicate feeling touched her heart but vanished in an instant.

She nodded, thinking to explain,

"I’m used to drawing Talismans overnight."

Especially when it involved Jade Token carving, she often worked for four to five hours straight.

There were always various distractions during the day.

The night was much quieter.

She mainly wanted to tell him that she regularly worked through the night, not specifically because he was away on business.

She didn’t expect Samuel Chalmers to furrow his brows slightly, his dark eyes briefly scanning under her eyes as if confirming whether there were dark circles.

He didn’t like dark circles.

He thought of telling her that staying up wasn’t good for her health.

But thinking that although they were engaged, both sides pretended not to acknowledge it, he didn’t feel he had the standing to say such things.

He pressed his thin lips, retracting the words he wanted to say, and just nodded at her indifferently before turning to leave.

Scarlett Jennings, as usual, couldn’t make out the details of his expression, but from his recent movement of turning and stepping away, she inexplicably felt Boss Chalmers seemed slightly unhappy.

Her almond eyes showed a hint of puzzlement.

Did she say something wrong just now?

Uncertain about the situation, Scarlett chose not to dwell on it.

Holding her pretty little fox, Scarlett returned to the Jennings Family’s villa.

She thought it might be better to set up an array at home.

Circle the entire villa. Not only could it prevent Spiritual Energy from leaking, but also keep the little fox and the spirit child from occasionally escaping to bother the boss.

But this idea quickly dissipated after seeing the floor area of the Jennings Family.

After all, she didn’t have an endless supply of Spiritual Power, and setting up an array like that would mean she’d be exhausted every day.

Scarlett turned her head, dismissing both the idea and the matter with Lydia Patterson.

Lydia, upon leaving the Jennings Family, had also forgotten the prior events by the time he returned to the Patterson Family’s villa.

Rubbing his slightly tired temples, he walked into the house, only to be confronted by an enthusiastic elder in traditional Chinese attire.

"Oh wow, it’s really my grandson!"

Lydia Patterson’s hand holding his temple suddenly froze like stone.
