The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 566

Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Master Jennings, Save Me!

Joseph originally had a lifespan of eighty-seven years, but now only fifty-one remain.

Upon learning the truth, Joseph truly broke down, no longer caring to "flirt" with Scarlett Jennings, and directly cried out to her,

"Master Jennings! You must save me!"

He comes from such a wealthy family, how can he die early?!

After a pause, he added, 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"And my dad!"

His grandfather passed away early, but his father is already over fifty this year.

This Jade Pendant was originally passed from his grandfather to his father, and then from his father to him. If his father also had decades of lifespan stolen, wouldn’t he have barely a couple of years left?

What would Joseph do then?!

"Master Jennings, save me and my dad!"

This plea to Master Jennings was clearly more heartfelt than the ones before.

However, Scarlett Jennings was helpless.

"The taken lifespan cannot be reclaimed, but if you’re willing to spend money, I can make those who schemed against your family suffer some consequences."

Finding Joseph’s whereabouts through this Black Jade seemed difficult, but breaking the Forbidden Technique linked to this Jade could also cause the other party to suffer a backlash.

Moreover, the more lifespan taken by the other party, the heavier the backlash would be.

Upon hearing that the lifespan couldn’t be recovered, a trace of ferocity flashed across Joseph’s face; without much hesitation, he agreed immediately.

"I will pay! Help me kill that grandson who plotted against me! No matter the cost!"

Scarlett Jennings: ...

She wanted to say, the one scheming against your family’s lifespan, Nolan, isn’t your grandson,

but there is a possibility you might be his "grandson."

Though not a direct grandson, you are likely a collateral descendant nephew.

Based on Joseph’s account, the opponent at least stole the lifespan of several generations of the Snyder Family — such a thing couldn’t continue with just a Talisman Jade.

Unless he himself shares the same lineage with the Snyder Family.

Scarlett Jennings never expected to inadvertently find clues about Nolan, whom they hadn’t been able to locate.

Receiving Joseph’s eight hundred thousand, Scarlett Jennings directly in front of him took out a Talisman, attached it to the Black Jade, then pointed the Peach Wood Sword at the black jade on the table.

"Heavenly and Earthly Peace, Heaven and Earth’s Essence, a thousand ghosts dare face, myriad evils dare invade, one Spirit Talisman, all troubles are mended..."

With clear sound chanting, as spiritual light suddenly flashed across the Talisman, Scarlett Jennings thrust the Peach Wood Sword forward, its tip firmly striking the Black Jade beneath the Talisman.

Just as Joseph wondered what this strange Wooden Sword could possibly do to a rock, he heard Scarlett Jennings command,

"Break!"

With this authorization, everyone heard a crisp cracking, like something had broken.

Soon after, strands of Black Mist emanated from beneath the Talisman, and barely escaped before being forcibly absorbed as if by the Talisman.

The Black Mist touching the Talisman immediately vanished as if burnt to nothingness.

At that moment, the Talisman also transformed with the Black Mist into a sheet of black ash.

Joseph felt a sudden lightness in his body.

Upon closer look, he was instantly dumbstruck. The Black Jade beneath the Talisman had shattered into five pieces.

Not only did he watch dumbfounded, but even the watching director and Ariel Zimmerman couldn’t help but be stunned.

This Jade... was it really that fragile?

A moment ago, Scarlett Jennings seemed not to have used much force, right?

And yet it was shattered?

Even the erstwhile heartbroken Cadence Lloyd forgot to cry, craning his neck to stare in amazement.

Gregory Xander’s reaction was less pronounced compared to the others.

Yet internally, he was somewhat shocked.

Outside, Jessamine Lloyd, upon seeing Nolan, promptly donned a flattering smile,

"Master Snyder, I heard some noise from your end just now. My mother sent me over to see if there’s anything you need help with, please feel free to ask."

Nolan replied,

"Nothing, just dealt with a ghost that dared intrude my chamber, sorry for disturbing you."

On hearing this, Jessamine Lloyd’s eyes flashed with a gleam of admiration,

"Master indeed is a master, ever since you took residence, strange occurrences have decreased significantly."

Saying this, he couldn’t help but inquire further,

"Master, I also wish to ask you, about the way you mentioned regarding helping my family gain wealth..."

Nolan looked at the young man’s eyes filled with ambition, not answering his question, he asked instead,

"Has your sister, born during Yin hour, returned?

I mentioned before, your family’s prosperity is siphoned by your sister, so long as her luck remains unbroken, your family remains elusive of wealth."

Upon Master Snyder’s reference to Cadence Lloyd, a venomous scorn flashed across Jessamine’s eyes.

He had long questioned his sister’s ability to secure a good university and live in a big city, all because she used up the family’s luck.

If not for this master exposing it, they would remain oblivious!

"That ungrateful sister of mine the master knows, once she ran away she’s unlikely to return, my mother insisted she return to marry yet she refused! Such ingratitude!

Fortunately, you said fixing a marriage contract for her could restore the luck to our family. According to the contract, today’s the day, right? That should work, shouldn’t it?"

"Hmm."

If she didn’t return, binding her with a Yin marriage and retrieving her soul served the same.

With Nolan’s nod, Jessamine’s face beamed in satisfaction, said a few more words then heartenedly departed, eager to return home awaiting fortune.

Upon his departure, Nolan missed noticing the abrupt adjustment in his fate.

From his appearance, there seemed a newly added Yin marriage contract.
