The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon!-Chapter 350: Old Woman, Do You Want to Hear What You Said Yourself?
Chapter 350: Chapter 350: Old Woman, Do You Want to Hear What You Said Yourself?
Madam Jennings didn’t know why her grandson suddenly wanted to speak to her alone. Although she was somewhat disappointed in him, seeing his gentle manner of inquiry, she couldn’t help but soften her emotions.
Just as she was about to agree, her hand was gripped tightly by Azura Loomis once again.
At this moment, Azura’s heart was somewhat panicked. Although she didn’t know what Donovan Jennings was going to do, considering his methods, she was genuinely worried.
If she were kicked out of the Jennings Family, even if she could still visit in the future, her status would no longer be the same.
At this moment, she was truly afraid.
She didn’t want the old lady to go.
"Grandma... let it be, just follow Brother Donovan’s intention, I’m fine. Even if I don’t live in the Jennings Family, I will still respect you as before and often come back to see you..."
Azura’s eyes brimmed with red, yet she forced a smile on her face, appearing graceful and sensible.
Scarlett Jennings looked at Azura, emotionally detached, and made a judgment in her heart—
She still preferred Ariel’s kind of performance.
But the sight made Madam Jennings’ heart feel like it was shattering; she became even more determined to keep Azura with her.
"Don’t worry, as long as grandma is here, no one can force you to leave this house!"
Donovan Jennings didn’t argue with Madam Jennings, stepped forward, pushed her wheelchair, and took her to another parlor to talk privately.
The group of people were curious to know what Donovan Jennings was suddenly discussing with the old lady, but despite their curiosity, they all maintained a composed appearance.
About five minutes later, suddenly, a sound of something shattering echoed from the parlor.
Everyone’s heart chilled.
Luca Jennings felt an instinctive urge to stand up.
He was somewhat worried that the old lady had lost her temper and started throwing things at Donovan Jennings.
Although such a scenario was unlikely to happen.
In the end, he resisted the impulse to go and check.
He had faith that Donovan Jennings could handle the situation properly.
Seeing that neither the patriarch nor Luca Jennings moved, the rest of the Jennings Family also had to suppress their impulse to go and see for themselves.
The group waited for another five minutes in the hall, and finally, the sound of Madam Jennings’ wheelchair rolling on the carpet outside was heard again.
All heads turned in unison towards the direction of the sound.
They saw Donovan Jennings returning with Madam Jennings, his expression as usual.
Madam Jennings’ face still seemed to hold some residual anger, but she endured and did not continue her tirade.
Azura hurried over immediately, crouching down, and asked anxiously,
"Grandma, are you alright?"
Her concern was as intense as ever, just as it used to be.
In the past, such concern would have been very soothing and heartfelt for Madam Jennings. ƒreewebɳovel.com
However, now, facing Azura, her expression was subtly complex, and within that subtlety, there was a certain gravity...
Azura was truly nervous now.
Something was off about the old lady’s expression.
The next second, it seemed as if the old lady had finally made up her mind, and she showed a somewhat forced smile at Azura,
"Azura, grandma has thought it over. You were right just now. Even if you don’t live with the Jennings Family in the future, you can still come back to visit me often... You’ve been away from the Loomis Family for so many years, it’s indeed time for you to go back and spend time with them."
The inconsistent words of Madam Jennings left everyone in the Jennings Family in a moment of stunned silence.
Azura’s facial expression uncontrollably stiffened.
She thought she had misheard.
Was it not the old lady who just said, with her here, no one could force her to leave this house?
It had only been about ten minutes...
Old lady, do you want to listen to what you yourself just said?!
Due to overwhelming indignation, Azura Loomis’s eyes uncontrollably betrayed a hint of resentment.
Old Mrs. Jennings had been watching her, and at the moment she saw that look, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Azura Loomis realized something was wrong and almost instantaneously she reined in all her emotions, even gritting her teeth without a hint of hesitation as she nodded,
"I’ll listen to Grandma, whatever happens to me is okay, as long as Grandma is well."
Still the same obedient and understanding demeanor.
It made Old Mrs. Jennings feel like the resentful look she saw was just her own illusion.
Yes, she must have been seeing things just now.
How obedient Azura is, even when she was suddenly asked to return to the Loomis Family, she agreed without a second thought, which shows her previous words were sincere.
It’s a shame...
Old Mrs. Jennings looked at Azura Loomis in front of her, her mind flashing with annoyance and regret as she thought of what her grandson had just said.
The rest of the Jennings family members, watching the old lady’s expression, were dying of curiosity.
What on earth did they talk about?
Before leaving, they were acting as if where she was, they were, yet they changed their tune after just a few words!
What exactly did Donovan do to the old lady?!
Donovan Jennings, the subject of everyone’s burning curiosity, stood behind the old lady, facing the curious gazes of the crowd with only a smile, his achievements and fame hidden deep within.
In fact, when he took the old lady aside, he merely showed her a few photos and videos.
Those videos and photos were none other than the daily lives of Azura Loomis and Chase Jennings after Chase took her to Tong City while she was injured, captured by surveillance.
Most were photos of Chase taking Azura out and about, looking intimate.
Old Mrs. Jennings was now looking at Azura Loomis, with the videos and photos she had just seen in her mind.
Because Azura had been injured on her forehead, Chase in the photos was incredibly protective.
He must hold hands when going out, occasionally supporting her shoulder, and sometimes even hugging her waist, as if always prepared in case she suddenly fell.
If it were just these, Old Mrs. Jennings could still explain them away as Chase taking care of his injured sister.
But those surveillance videos...
Thinking of the man and woman in the videos, Old Mrs. Jennings felt waves of darkness before her eyes.
There were three clips in the video.
The first was of the two at a restaurant, where Azura Loomis pointed at something on Chase’s plate, and, looking a bit helpless, he fed her a spoonful of his dessert.
Azura tasted it and looked delighted.
Chase then nonchalantly ate the remaining half of her dessert.
The second clip showed them laughing and talking in the hotel corridor.
Suddenly they started chasing and roughhousing. Azura ran, Chase chased, and in the end, Chase cornered her against the wall of the corridor and within his arms, both appearing ambiguously intimate.
The third was in the hospital corridor.
Azura seemed to be sitting sadly, Chase comforting her at the side when suddenly Azura threw herself into Chase’s arms, and he embraced her tightly, then stealthily kissed the top of her head.
For the old lady’s convenience to see clearly, each frame of the three clips was specially processed with high definition, and the details of the actions were vividly visible.
As a result, Old Mrs. Jennings clearly saw all the intimate actions between the two.
Even she couldn’t deny that the relationship between her grandson and Azura Loomis was not clear.
Just from watching such videos, she would believe they were lovers.
But clearly, while at the Jennings’, although Azura and Chase appeared to get along well, their behaviors were very measured, nothing like what was in the surveillance videos.
Or is it that they act the same way at home, and she just hasn’t seen it?
What ultimately made Old Mrs. Jennings decide to send Azura Loomis away was what Donovan said last,
"Besides Chase, Adam has different feelings for Azura Loomis as well.
The reason I insist on sending her back is to avoid any embarrassing occurrences in the future, to stop others from laughing at the Jennings family again, as when Azura Loomis was brought into our home, she was raised like a child bride."
