The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 682

Chapter 682: Chapter 682: She Does Not Exist

"What do you mean? Did you plan this?!"

Adam Jennings suddenly stood up from his seat. Seeing the other two remain seated and unmoving, he instinctively shifted his position closer to Scarlett Jennings.

The two appeared uninterested in addressing Adam Jennings, each focusing intently on the other.

One appeared serious and cold, while the other seemed indifferent.

"How did you know I was lying?"

Elias Quinn was genuinely curious.

He thought he had acted quite normally.

Scarlett Jennings looked at him expressionlessly,

"You’re not the only one who has been reborn from the Otherworld."

Initially, when she heard him mention the collective suicide, she didn’t have doubts but felt something about him seemed off.

So when she returned, she directly sought out Alicia Sharp to verify.

After returning from the Capital Metropolitan, she had a candid conversation with Alicia Sharp, who had previously concealed the secret of her rebirth, fearing she would be taken away by the Mystical Sect for soul studies.

After learning Scarlett Jennings already knew her secret, she no longer hid it.

Though Alicia Sharp was caught up in the mess of the Sharp Family in her past life and didn’t care much about societal news, she still remembered significant societal events.

Scarlett Jennings still recalled Alicia Sharp’s original words,

"I might be uncertain about other places, but if something this serious happened at Sea University, there’s no way I wouldn’t have heard of it unless it was completely suppressed.

But even if it was suppressed, common people might not know, but people within our circle would surely know..."

Hence, Alicia Sharp’s opinion was that this event never occurred in the previous life.

She also expressed curiosity about Elias Quinn,

"The person you mentioned, is he a Journalism student? Otherwise, how could he remember the timelines for these societal events so clearly?"

Logically, people usually remember events with specific dates either because they are related to them or because they regularly encounter these events within their circle.

It was Alicia Sharp’s comment that made Scarlett Jennings certain there was indeed a problem with Elias Quinn.

Yet she wasn’t sure if Elias was simply lying or playing another role in this matter, so she hadn’t exposed him right away.

"So you have already encountered others."

Elias Quinn appeared unfazed, even upon being exposed.

Scarlett Jennings continued to look at him coldly, her tone assertive,

"You indeed come from the Otherworld, but you’re not the Elias Quinn of the Otherworld; you took over his body."

What Elias Quinn had previously revealed to Abigail Bryant was true; during those three days, someone had investigated Elias Quinn.

He had been a straightforward young man ever since childhood.

If the person before her, like Alicia Sharp, was reborn midway in their lives, such a drastic change wouldn’t be possible.

She leaned more towards it being similar to the system’s treatment of Chase Jennings and the elderly Mrs. Jennings at the time.

An Otherworldly soul seizing Elias Quinn’s body.

Judging by the compatibility of the soul and even his demeanor, this was an Otherworldly soul that had already successfully possessed his body.

"You’re quite clever, but you guessed wrong about this one."

Elias Quinn said, "I am Elias Quinn himself; from the time I was born, I have always been Elias Quinn."

Scarlett Jennings, hearing him refute her guess, didn’t lose her composure but asked him still,

"If you are Elias Quinn, what was your purpose in orchestrating today’s suicide? Did you have a grudge against those nine people?"

"Not exactly a grudge."

For someone like Heath York, at most, there was just a little friction in life.

Initially, he also planned to get rid of him.

As for the first eight people...

"You could say, I wanted to see your capabilities."
