The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 670

Chapter 670: Chapter 670: Marked by the Loss of Wife and Child

The system initially absorbed the Jennings Family’s fortune through Azura Loomis. Although Azura also gained part of the fortune, the majority was absorbed by the system.

Aside from the system, there was Nolan Snyder.

Back then, he used a red resentful bone to absorb the surrounding resentful energy. Once fed, the bone emitted resentment, affecting nearby people.

It was similar in principle to the demon bone in front of them.

Because the demon bone, in addition to absorbing demon energy and fortune, also absorbed the resentment from the snakes harmed by Landon Lester.

Scarlett Jennings could easily imagine what kind of evil entity the demon bone would become after fully absorbing all the resentment and demon energy.

It would likely be incomparable to the red resentful bone in terms of level.

From this perspective, Scarlett Jennings should be relieved she discovered it early enough.

It was known that

The system was backed by the Heavenly Dao.

While behind Nolan Snyder was another organization capable of manipulating the Black Mist.

Compared to the Heavenly Dao, Scarlett Jennings leaned more towards the latter.

Afterwards, the Sea City Security Bureau consolidated all the information and reported it uniformly to the main Security Bureau.

After the incident with the Undying Bone, a dedicated team was formed by the main bureau to focus on the Black Mist Organization behind Nolan Snyder.

For now, the subsequent matters had nothing to do with Scarlett Jennings.

After being detained for a day and a night, Landon Lester was finally released following a reprimand and a fine.

The next day, as Scarlett Jennings handled the subsequent matters related to the demon bone, she happened to pass by Landon Lester as he was leaving.

Suddenly she stopped in her tracks, abruptly turned her head to look at Landon Lester.

Without a word, she grabbed him firmly.

Already irritated from being inexplicably detained for a day, Landon Lester couldn’t hold back his anger, regardless of her being the Jennings family’s heiress, and cursed out loud,

"What do you want now?! You’ve already released me, but you’re still not letting me go?! Is your Security Bureau acting above the law?!"

"Shut up!"

Scarlett Jennings snapped at him sharply, her expression turning suddenly grave as she looked at Landon Lester.

In just one night, Landon Lester’s face had changed dramatically.

He not only had a pallor of death about him, but also bore signs of widowhood and being childless.

These were things that hadn’t shown when she saw him yesterday.

Almost instantly, Scarlett Jennings thought of the "culprit"—

That Floral Serpent!

Without hesitation, Scarlett Jennings turned and, pulling Landon Lester, dragged him towards the car,

"Take me to your home immediately."

Seeing Landon Lester still wanting to explode with dissatisfaction, Scarlett Jennings had no patience to explain and, with a cold expression, directly barked,

"If you don’t want your wife and child dead, take me there now!"

Startled by her words, Landon Lester finally remembered the woman’s skills.

His mind went blank; he dared not delay any longer, quickly scrambling into the car, reported the address, and the car sped off.

Before long, the car stopped outside a villa in the city center.

Landon Lester hurriedly led Scarlett Jennings inside, and as they reached the doorway, the scene before him nearly knocked him out.

The villa was tightly surrounded by a dense mass of snakes.

Some snakes were even climbing up the exterior walls towards the upstairs window.

Immediately, sounds of terrified screams from his wife and son came from inside.

"Ahhhh!"

Landon Lester’s legs went weak, and he nearly fainted, letting out a wail, about to charge in disregarding everything.

Scarlett Jennings quickly pulled him back, simultaneously summoning two fire talismans with her other hand.

"Upward to the Purple Star, Earthly fires blaze!"

One of the talismans turned into a tongue of flame and shot towards the snakes blocking the entrance, while the other flew directly into the upstairs window, followed shortly by a familiar scream.

Intimidated by the fire tongue, the snake swarm at the entrance swiftly cleared a path, and Scarlett Jennings seized the opportunity to rush inside, seeing Landon Lester’s wife and son tightly embracing each other, surrounded by snakes, their expressions terror-stricken and despairing.
