The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon!-Chapter 63 - Can You See This

Chapter 63: Chapter 63 Can You See This?

Chapter 63 -63 Can You See This?

Scarlett Jennings was stunned on the spot.

She had instinctively told him to step aside, not because she thought the little spirit baby could collide with Samuel Chalmers.

After all, with the Golden Light on Samuel Chalmers, common ghosts hitting it were no different from moths flying into a flame.

Compared to worrying about Samuel Chalmers being hit by the spirit baby, she was more concerned that the spirit baby would just vanish into thin air.

But reality was different.

The spirit baby wasn’t smashed into pieces; instead, Samuel Chalmers caught it directly in his hand??

Caught?

Scarlett Jennings instinctively looked at Samuel Chalmers and saw the latter frowning, his cold eyes staring at the struggling mass of black air in his palm.

Scarlett Jennings: ??

“You… can see that thing?” Scarlett Jennings couldn’t help but ask, her brow furrowed.

Samuel Chalmers turned to look at her, his expression eerie, those dark eyes deep, clearly asking—

What is this thing?

He didn’t feel anything solid in his palm; it felt more like he was holding a writhing mass of gas. Seeing the black gas struggling intensely, about to escape his grasp, Samuel Chalmers instinctively tightened his grip.

Scarlett Jennings was just about to take over when she suddenly saw his action and instinctively shouted to stop,

“Don’t!”

But it was already too late.

Scarlett Jennings watched as the Golden Light around the grand master enveloped the spirit baby in his palm the moment he exerted force, with only one thought in her mind.

The little spirit baby seemed unable to escape the fate of vanishing.

Yet the next second, as the Golden Light swallowed the spirit baby, the black resentful energy that enveloped the little spirit baby actually dissipated completely as if driven away by the Golden Light.

What remained in Samuel Chalmers’s palm, however, was a chubby mass resembling a ginseng doll.

The small chubby mass was pinched in Samuel Chalmers’s hand, its tiny limbs still flailing and struggling.

Even Scarlett Jennings, who rarely showed surprise or confusion, had her almond eyes slightly widened, her expression tinged with astonishment and bewilderment.

Was this… the little spirit baby?

Samuel Chalmers, after the black gas dispersed, also saw clearly the “ginseng doll” in his hand, and for the first time, his usually calm and indifferent eyes trembled slightly.

He seemed to not understand what kind of creature he had caught.

Subconsciously, he looked at Scarlett Jennings, seeking answers from her.

Seeing her staring dumbfoundedly at the “thing” in his palm, his brows furrowed even more, and he couldn’t help but remind her,

“Scarlett Jennings.”

That lightly suppressed cold voice reminded Scarlett Jennings, bringing her to her senses. Without hesitating, she stepped forward and swiftly wrapped the little creature in Samuel Chalmers’s hand with a Yellow Talisman.

The little creature seemed ready to slip away, but Scarlett acted quickly, wrapping the talisman around it in a couple of moves, bundling it into a ball.

Then, she casually took out a red string and tied the small ginseng doll into a bundle like tying a zongzi, holding it in her hand.

Samuel Chalmers: …

Even now, Samuel Chalmers didn’t show too much of a broken or doubtful expression, only a slight twitch at the corner of his eye betrayed his emotions.

In an instant, he returned to normal, speaking calmly,

“Is this also your pet?”

Last time it was a little fox, and this time it was this strange “thing” that didn’t seem real, plus the disappearing silk he had seen with his own eyes the previous time.

Samuel Chalmers had begun to believe that the young lady just found by the Jennings Family indeed had some peculiar abilities.

Scarlett Jennings didn’t expect him to ask that, her lips twitched slightly before she calmly replied,

“No.”

She didn’t raise ghosts.

“This is a spirit baby I caught on the rooftop of the abandoned teaching building before.”

Scarlett Jennings said,

“I accidentally let it run away just now.”

Samuel Chalmers looked at the continuously wobbling “zongzi” in her hand, his deep dark eyes were somewhat speechless.

Scarlett Jennings, assuming that since he could see it, had no intention of continuing to hide it. Besides, she had been looking for a chance to probe about the three strikes of Purple Thunder before; this seemed like a rare opportunity.

“Would you mind going inside to talk?”

Scarlett Jennings lifted the “zongzi” in her hand and gestured towards the Chalmers Villa behind him.

Samuel Chalmers’s expression was cold and indifferent; usually, he wouldn’t voluntarily invite someone into his territory.

But curiosity gnawed at him, so he acquiesced and turned to walk inside.

Scarlett Jennings just followed him directly with the zongzi.

It wasn’t Scarlett Jennings’s first time visiting the Chalmers Family, but her previous visits were hasty, and she hadn’t gotten a good look inside the villa.

Unlike the Jennings Family, the Chalmers Family’s interior was relatively quaint, with a touch of understated, luxurious Chinese style.

The overall appearance was very solemn and imposing, but it vaguely gave her a sense of emptiness.

It wasn’t until she followed him all the way up to the study on the second floor that Scarlett Jennings suddenly realized where this sense of emptiness came from.

The Chalmers Villa was simply too empty.

Although she could feel a clear human presence, from when she entered the door to when she went upstairs, she had hardly seen a soul.

Considering Samuel Chalmers’s peculiar obsessive-compulsive disorder, it wasn’t hard to guess that the grand master probably didn’t like seeing people wandering around in front of him.

The servants in this house were likely specially trained to not appear casually where the owner could see them.

This wasn’t particularly strange.

Scarlett Jennings knew that some families had similar rules.

But besides the servants, what caught her curiosity more was, whether it was last time or this time, she seemed never to see any other members of the Chalmers Family.

Were they no longer here?

Or had they all moved out?

While pondering, Scarlett Jennings had followed Samuel Chalmers into the study.

Without rushing to speak, Scarlett Jennings first hung the “zongzi” she was holding on the study’s doorknob, then turned to enter and walked toward the sofa.

Samuel Chalmers watched her actions, another moment of silence flashed in his eyes, then he followed her to sit on the sofa.

“You can start talking.”

His deep voice carried no trace of emotion, indifferent as if he hadn’t just caught a spirit baby.

Scarlett Jennings didn’t hesitate, concisely explaining her “profession” and the incident at the abandoned teaching building.

This naturally included Delilah Woods and the unexpected loss of Delilah Woods’s “baby.”

Samuel Chalmers listened in silence, with little change in his expression.

Families of esteemed lineage often had a higher acceptance of Mystical Geomancy, and given some of his childhood experiences, he had a faint inkling.

Today, however, was genuinely the first tangible encounter.

Hmm… not only seen, but also caught.

“Have you never seen it before?”

Scarlett Jennings asked this, but was clear in her heart that with his Golden Light Physique, not seeing ghosts within ten meters was normal.

Ghosts fled upon sight.

Indeed, Samuel Chalmers shook his head, “Never seen.”

Scarlett Jennings’s eyes gleamed, suddenly reaching out to feel around him, then spreading her palm open, revealing two Golden Lights she had just plucked from around him.

She held them out, asking,

“Can you see this?”
