The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 172

Chapter 172: Chapter 172: My Family is Only a Bit Wealthier Than Yours

Scarlett Jennings went upstairs to wash up and change into a new outfit, while Ariel Zimmerman and Momo Ross on the bed had already woken up one after another.

Because of yesterday morning’s "accident," Momo Ross had learned her lesson and woke up early to do her makeup and styling to ensure that the audience would see a beautiful version of herself as soon as they opened the livestream.

Sure enough, at eight o’clock, when the audience opened the livestream, they saw a group of handsome men and beautiful women.

Momo Ross seemed to have forgotten about yesterday’s events and the online feedback about her, as she cheerfully greeted the livestream camera with renewed energy as soon as the broadcast started.

She then followed the cameraman downstairs for breakfast.

Scarlett Jennings and Ariel Zimmerman had already gone downstairs earlier. When Momo Ross saw Scarlett Jennings, she immediately smiled and greeted her, then casually asked,

"Scarlett, where did you go last night? I woke up in the middle of the night and didn’t see you, and I was worried sick."

As soon as Momo said this, the other guests’ eyes turned to Scarlett Jennings.

"You went out last night?" Sebastian Carew, having partnered with her for two episodes and grown familiar, instinctively showed concern upon hearing of her nighttime excursion.

Evander Simpson also looked at Scarlett Jennings, but rather than concern, he was more interested in whether Scarlett had gone out at night for secret cultivation.

Seeing everyone’s gaze on her, Scarlett Jennings glanced calmly over at Momo Ross and simply replied,

"I heard that the sunrise at Sunbeam Mountain is beautiful, so I went for a night hike."

Hearing that she actually went to see the sunrise, several guests, including the host, couldn’t help but widen their eyes.

Sebastian couldn’t help but speak up, "Why didn’t you call us?"

After all, a night hike could be somewhat dangerous for a young lady.

Ariel Zimmerman clicked her tongue, "We just climbed down the mountain last evening. Aren’t you tired?"

The host thought, damn it, I missed such good material!

All the guests should have gone to see the sunrise together!

Even the audience in the livestream couldn’t help but express their thoughts.

"Are young people today so full of energy?"

"No way, does she not need to sleep?"

"To be honest, I don’t recommend a girl hiking alone at night. It’s somewhat dangerous."

"Am I the only one envious of Scarlett Jennings’s great skin? She doesn’t look anything like someone who stayed up all night."

"If it were me, I’d probably have collapsed by now without a night of sleep."

While everyone was chatting in the livestream, Momo Ross, hearing Scarlett Jennings’s explanation, didn’t believe it at all, smirked to herself internally, but outwardly she put on a knowing look,

"So that’s what happened. The driver who took you back in the morning must have been the fellow hiker who went night hiking with you, huh? I’ve always liked that uncle’s Range Rover, I didn’t expect wealthy people’s hobbies to be so wholesome."

Momo Ross seemed to be making an observation, her tone devoid of any ambiguity, yet the words left room for endless speculation.

For a moment, the guests at the dining table fell silent, the atmosphere slightly tense.

"What, I don’t get it, what does Momo Ross mean?"

"Why does it sound to me like there’s something more to what she’s saying?"

"Disappearing in the middle of the night, being dropped off at the villa early in the morning by a guy driving a Range Rover, the implication is already quite clear." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

"No way? Isn’t Scarlett Jennings a student?"

"Is Momo Ross out of her mind? Did she forget who helped her yesterday? And today, she’s slandering my girl like this?"

"Maybe it’s not slander. Didn’t you see Scarlett Jennings didn’t deny it?"

"Young female students nowadays truly have no propriety."

After all, if it weren’t for Scarlett Jennings, she might not even be standing here properly.

Just yesterday, she was calling Scarlett Master Jennings, and today she’s probing into her private affairs.

Before either of them could intervene and interrupt Momo Ross’s relentless pursuit, Scarlett Jennings glanced at Momo Ross and, coolly, directly answered her previous question.

"My family’s circumstances are just slightly better than yours, I suppose."

Even though she didn’t know how exactly Momo Ross’s family situation was, she guessed it was not as good as the Jennings Family’s.

Scarlett Jennings spoke earnestly, but these words sounded like sheer humiliation to Momo Ross.

She had a moment of rigidity on her face, and before she could retort, Scarlett Jennings continued,

"Not only is my family wealthier than yours, my manners are also better."

She said, "At least, I wouldn’t take stealthy photos of others and groundlessly speculate about others."

As soon as these words were out, the guests and program crew hadn’t even reacted yet.

The audience in the livestream already exploded.

"What, what, what? The candid photo online was taken by Momo Ross?"

"How does Scarlett Jennings know about the photos? She hasn’t even looked at her phone!"

"Damn! If the photo was really taken by Momo Ross, I’d totally lose respect for her!"

"I said it was taken by a paparazzo, so it was, but I believe Scarlett, which makes Momo Ross a scumbag paparazzo!"

"Hahaha, nothing wrong with the comment above!"

"But Scarlett Jennings’s tone is quite bold, I remember Momo Ross is supposedly a rich second generation! Although Scarlett Jennings was adopted by wealthy people, her current family should be of ordinary means."

"Is it possible that Scarlett Jennings’s biological parents are very wealthy?"
