The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 689

Chapter 689: Chapter 689: Caught a Counterfeit

The emo turtle system was sent away, and Scarlett Jennings and Samuel Chalmers quietly finished their meal.

Originally, after the meal, they planned to continue today’s "date" at the amusement park Donovan Jennings had gifted Scarlett. However, as they left the restaurant, they heard from the server about a recently released supernatural movie.

The movie was said to be filmed during the airing of "Inspiration," anticipating the rise of supernatural themes, so they quickly had the script written and shot the film.

They publicly claimed to have hired a professional Taoist as a script consultant.

Scarlett Jennings hadn’t been following these things lately due to being busy, but upon hearing this, she immediately expressed interest in watching the movie.

Samuel Chalmers naturally went along with her.

So, an hour later, they were seated in the VIP room of a cinema, watching ghosts fly wildly on a big screen.

Outside the screen, a couple of wandering souls occasionally floated by, even mimicking the movie ghosts’ scary postures in front of the screen, trying to scare the couple watching the movie.

Scarlett Jennings and Samuel Chalmers looked at the wandering souls who were attempting to replicate taking off their heads as seen in the movie but couldn’t quite get it right, both showing no expression.

After a while, Samuel Chalmers slowly spoke,

"Next time, let’s watch at home."

The Chalmers Family’s starry sky cinema offered top-notch sound system and viewing experience.

More importantly, there wouldn’t be wandering souls wandering in casually.

Scarlett Jennings agreed, "Alright."

If worse comes to worst, the Jennings Family’s cinema was also an option.

Although she could easily use a talisman paper to send these wandering souls away, Scarlett Jennings wasn’t inclined to get up.

Additionally, just from watching the first half of this movie boasting a new era of supernatural themes, it was obviously not living up to its name, causing Scarlett Jennings to lose interest.

Another reason, albeit not a substantial one, was that the cinema was very dark while the person beside her was somewhat glowing.

Not really suitable for watching a movie together.

Samuel Chalmers too was aware of this, so he simply said, "Let’s go to the next place."

Scarlett Jennings, puzzled, asked, "Next place, the amusement park?"

Samuel Chalmers shook his head, "There’s a place you should like even more."

Scarlett Jennings slightly raised an eyebrow, and upon arriving with Samuel Chalmers at the place, her eyes lit up slightly.

Samuel Chalmers had brought her to an auction house.

Scarlett Jennings was somewhat curious, "How did you come up with this idea?"

With Samuel Chalmers’ identity, whatever he wanted to buy didn’t typically require his personal appearance.

It’s notable that those participating in auction houses are mostly assistants, responsible for remote bidding.

"I noticed the jade materials you keep in the study were running low."

Coincidentally, there will be a lot of premium jade materials auctioned today.

Samuel Chalmers paused and added,

"Also, an assistant told me that girls going out prefer to do some shopping."

Scarlett Jennings: ...

This wasn’t entirely wrong.

But, she really hadn’t tried shopping at auction houses like this.

After all, the jade materials sold at auction houses were expensive, lacking funds earlier, Scarlett Jennings mostly bought stones to cut herself, which were cheaper than the premium jade materials being auctioned.

Through discerning the spiritual energy on the stones, Scarlett Jennings could pretty much obtain good items.

As for Ivan’s place, unless there was a special requirement, she never participated in bidding.

As soon as they entered, they were directed by a waiter straight to the private room on the second floor.

The auction house was divided into two levels, with the second floor evidently reserved for important individuals who were willing to personally participate in the auction.

In the private room, directly facing the platform, there was a large floor-to-ceiling glass, with an array of fruits, snacks, and beverages available.

As soon as they sat on the sofa, the waiter delivered the day’s auction catalog, Scarlett Jennings flipped through two pages, and suddenly her eyes skimmed over something, reaching out to poke Samuel Chalmers’ arm.

She rarely made such intimate gestures, catching Samuel Chalmers’ surprise, causing him to turn and see her signaling him to look down.

Samuel Chalmers followed the direction of her gaze.

And unexpectedly encountered a familiar face.

Still a member of the Jennings Family.

...

On the first floor.

Adam Jennings sat inside the venue, waiting for the opening.
