The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 875

Chapter 875: Chapter 875: I Like Him, and It Has Nothing to Do with Fairness

Lucas Jennings, in a burst of anger, almost rolled up his sleeves ready to "debate."

Donovan Jennings was somewhat surprised by his sudden outburst, but didn’t seem to want to stop him.

Samuel Chalmers, who had been walking inside, stopped as Lucas wished, then turned his head to look at him.

His eyes revealed no trace of emotion, simply wanting to see why Lucas was calling him.

Even so, as their gazes met, Lucas Jennings inexplicably felt his momentum weaken.

But soon, he forced himself to stand tall again,

"You—you can give us attitude, but what right do you have to treat my sister that way?! Do you know my sister came to the Capital Metropolitan for you!"

Lucas Jennings’s question was abrupt, leaving not only Samuel but even Scarlett Jennings, the person involved, a bit caught off guard.

Samuel Chalmers slightly furrowed his brow, looked at him, and simply corrected in a deep voice,

"I never gave her attitude."

As for earlier, he was merely respecting Donovan’s request to leave normally, not giving attitude.

But about this, Samuel felt no need to explain to them.

Seeing Samuel respond, Lucas calmed down and said simply,

"Don’t deny it! Dashiell said you got angry over some trivial matter last night and stormed off, giving my sister attitude! Dare you say you didn’t do that?!"

Because of this, and having guessed his sister was the story’s Friend A last night, he had come over early in the morning with Brother Donovan.

Though Dashiell didn’t detail what his sister did last night, she surely couldn’t have done anything wrong.

If it’s not wrong, then it must be trivial.

Giving attitude must be his fault!

Lucas Jennings was full of righteous indignation, which made Dashiell nearby almost explode with his Flood Dragon Scales.

No, if you must erupt, why betray your buddies?!

Great, now the whole world would know he secretly tattled about Samuel last night!

Samuel Chalmers also looked at Dashiell, a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

Scarlett Jennings didn’t expect Lucas to suddenly erupt at Samuel because of this.

This incident she and Samuel pretended never happened, Lucas bluntly and straightforwardly asked.

Admittedly, Lucas is really impulsive.

But for some reason, Scarlett doesn’t dislike this impulsiveness, even finding it strangely soothing.

A hint of a smile flashed in her eyes, she turned to look directly at Samuel Chalmers.

Since Lucas had asked for her, she wanted to know too.

Why did her actions last night unsettle him?

Was it because she offended him without boundaries, or because... he resists her approach.

Upon hearing Lucas’s question, Samuel Chalmers furrowed his brow again.

Facing Scarlett’s gaze, Samuel’s brows knitted more tightly.

So, Scarlett also thought his sudden departure last night was him... being angry?

For the first time, Samuel Chalmers felt absurdity in being misunderstood without a way to explain.

If it were only Lucas questioning him today, Samuel wouldn’t bother.

For he never needed to explain his actions to others.

But at this moment, facing Scarlett’s gaze, Samuel fell into rare silence.

After a while, he skimmed past everyone and directly looked at her, his voice reserved, just saying,

"I wasn’t angry with you."

As for why he turned away, he didn’t further explain.

But just that sentence made Scarlett Jennings’s heart relax in a certain place.

Though she said she doesn’t regret.

Even though she pretended nothing happened last night.

Deep down, she cared about Samuel Chalmers’s reaction.

She cared about him, not wanting her actions to make him... dislike her.

Knowing he didn’t leave in anger last night, Scarlett truly sighed in relief.
