The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon!-Chapter 415 Her Name is Ava Zimmerman
Chapter 415: Chapter 415 Her Name is Ava Zimmerman
Samuel Chalmers stayed in Capital Metropolitan for three days.
Scarlett Jennings did not linger long at the Jennings Family residence. After explaining things clearly to Caius Carew, she left straight for the Taoism Academy with Nathan White and Ashton Todd.
She had taken a bit too much time off.
Chase Jennings, due to his injuries, temporarily stayed at the Jennings Family home to recuperate. After all, he had a head injury, and Luca Jennings couldn’t just send him out of town at this time.
On this day, Chase had just removed the bandages from his head when his assistant sent over the information he’d asked to be checked.
"Young Master Chase, that girl is named Ava Zimmerman. She graduated high school and is 22 years old. She works as a warehouse clerk at a mall. She’s the one who called the ambulance for you that day."
"22 years old working as a clerk?"
Chase found it odd—this wasn’t a job most young girls would willingly take.
The assistant explained softly, "It’s mainly because she’s ugly. Even the food delivery services don’t want her."
Chase frowned, wondering how ugly she had to be for a food delivery job to reject her.
Thinking this, he casually opened the photo attached to the file, only to be stunned by how unattractive she looked.
"Yikes, this ugly."
Chase muttered under his breath, clearly not expecting the face under the mask he’d seen that day to look like this.
The photo was a formal ID picture, without the mask covering her face.
The girl’s lower half of her face had noticeable scar tissue growth and obvious burn marks on her left cheek—uneven and rugged, making her appearance a bit shocking at first glance.
"Apparently, she was disfigured as a child. Her family was poor, so they didn’t treat the scars, leaving her looking like this now."
The assistant explained softly over the phone. He admitted he was startled when he first saw her, too. It was said that because of her frightening appearance, she would eat her meals while avoiding others.
Chase initially thought of sending a token of gratitude through his assistant, given her help in his time of need.
But after seeing her situation in the file, Chase decided to thank her in person instead.
True to his words, Chase took the time during his lunch break the next day to find her.
The mall owner, upon hearing that a member of the Jennings family had come in person, immediately dropped his meal midway and hurried over to host the second young master of Jennings Family.
When he learned that Chase had come to express his gratitude to one of their mall employees, the mall owner was surprised but silently resolved to ensure the employee would be well cared for in the future.
After all, it was a rare opportunity to connect with the Jennings family’s second young master.
This was also why Chase opted to find her at her workplace rather than visiting her home privately to thank her.
It could be seen as indirect reciprocity for her help.
The mall manager had a somewhat complicated expression when he heard they were looking for Ava Zimmerman.
To be honest, in a mall with so many employees, it would be difficult for him to remember any particular warehouse clerk’s name.
But Ava Zimmerman? He knew her.
Primarily because this girl was excessively unattractive. She had originally been hired thanks to her disability certificate.
The group of people accompanied Chase to the back warehouse.
Before they even entered the room, they heard a delicate female voice exclaim in horror,
"Your... your face, why does it look like that? It’s so scary."
She immediately followed up with, "I didn’t mean to say it like that—it’s just that I was startled when I saw you suddenly. You’re not angry, right?"
The group walked closer, just in time to see an exquisitely dressed woman speaking to a petite girl wearing a warehouse clerk’s uniform, complete with a hat and a mask.
The petite girl had her head lowered. Upon hearing the woman’s words, she merely shook her head softly.
Even without seeing her full face, Chase instinctively recognized her as the girl who had helped him that night.
However, the elegantly dressed woman made a poor impression on him at first glance.
The woman was attractive, with a well-groomed and stylish appearance. In the past, she would’ve been the type Chase found appealing at first sight.
But that was before.
After the incident with Azura Loomis, Chase had developed a natural aversion toward women with soft, beautiful appearances.
During his recovery these past few days, he had even gone online to educate himself about so-called green tea and white lotus personalities.
Frankly, the words this woman had just said about his benefactor had a hint of that tone.
Even Azura had something of a similar vibe.
Chase couldn’t help but wonder why he had been completely oblivious before.
The woman clearly hadn’t noticed the approaching group. Seeing Ava Zimmerman turning away to focus on her tasks, she whispered to the supervisor beside her, free𝑤ebnovel.com
"Supervisor, let me make one thing clear—I absolutely don’t mean to discriminate against her. You know me; I never judge people through a biased lens. But here’s the thing: our company specializes in beauty products, and tomorrow’s mall event is incredibly important...
If people see her handling our company’s products, it might leave a bad impression on the customers. So, I wanted to discuss with you whether we could ensure that the event supplies and promotional materials bypass her entirely? Does that work?"
The warehouse supervisor seemed to consider her request reasonable and was about to agree, but Chase had already darkened his expression and stepped forward, cutting into their conversation.
"If this isn’t considered discrimination, then the entire world must be blind."
Fiona Harper, the woman speaking just now, instinctively turned her head upon hearing this. Catching sight of Chase Jennings, she froze in shock.
For a moment, she forgot about being ridiculed just now, her face lighting up with surprise and a hint of nervousness,
"You’re Chase... Young Master Chase?"
Chase glanced at her with a slight frown. "Do you know me?"
Fiona quickly said, "My college roommate’s brother is one of your close friends. We’ve met before at a party."
Chase confirmed that he didn’t recognize the woman before him.
It made sense. His social circle’s gatherings were frequent, with friends often bringing people along. At any given party, there could be three-quarters of unfamiliar faces. How was he supposed to remember everyone?
"Young Master Chase, is there something you need here?"
Fiona, seeing Chase hadn’t responded, asked softly, her voice gentle and honeyed.
Fiona always considered her family background to be relatively privileged.
Although her family didn’t show her much affection—a situation that resulted in them giving her money rather than emotional care—she had still received a designer handbag as a gift when she started college.
But that time, when her roommate brought her to one of the exclusive parties attended by the elite second generation of wealthy families, she finally realized what true opulence looked like.
Not that she was overly fixated on material wealth—she wasn’t like those girls who only cared about money.
She simply thought Chase Jennings was particularly unique. Despite being surrounded by so many beauties at the party, he had only paid attention to his friends and his drink.
His every move exuded an effortlessly refined charm.
Unfortunately, after that night, Fiona never had the chance to meet him again.
Now, his sudden appearance was giving Fiona a strange sense of fate—like a destined reunion.
But before Fiona could continue indulging in the daydream of such a fateful encounter, Chase coldly interrupted,
"I’m here for her."
As he spoke, he raised his hand to point toward the girl Fiona had just insulted, then looked back at Fiona, his tone growing sharper,
"I heard everything you said earlier. Now, I want you to offer my friend a proper apology."
