The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 940

Chapter 940: Chapter 940: Haven’t You Fed It?

Soon, the negotiations between the Mystical Council and Irene’s side concluded with results.

According to the compensation requested by Scarlett Jennings, besides the replacement of some special materials and magic artifacts, the Demon Hunter Guild was also asked to negotiate for the return of some collections from the Elizabethan Manor to Cathay.

The reason it wasn’t all of them is that it’s understood that returning them all is impossible.

But returning just a portion is enough.

Because Scarlett Jennings had discussed with the Qilin of the Artefact Village about using replicas to replace the genuine items in the collection, which was now ready to be implemented.

The Jade Cabbage, which Scarlett Jennings had entrusted with heavy responsibilities, had, over nearly half a year’s accumulation, successfully replicated most of the replicas with its perfect imitation ability.

Taking advantage of this transaction, they could send these replicas to the Elizabethan Manor and swap out those half-soul embedded replicas.

So that decades later, when these replicated replicas vanish, the initial plan of the artefacts can continue.

In the Security Bureau’s office, Scarlett Jennings and the group, including Samuel Chalmers, listened as Simon conveyed the final negotiation results.

"Irene comes from Elizabethan Nobility, so it’s just right for him to handle this negotiation, but it will take some time. After Irene leaves, the Demon Hunter’s Guild will also send representatives from various countries to learn the magic of the Sea Barrier..."

Simon paused here, suddenly looking at Samuel Chalmers,

"Next, many foreign Masters will gather in Capital Metropolitan. Although we’ve already expressed our stance, we can’t rule out those who want to fish in troubled waters and persistently entangle, so my recommendation is for you to temporarily leave Capital Metropolitan."

As for Samuel Chalmers, himself waking up after the Dragon Vein regained consciousness would not stay in one place for long.

This time he stayed in Capital Metropolitan after awakening because of special circumstances.

So naturally, Samuel Chalmers had no objection to Simon’s proposal.

He then looked at Scarlett Jennings.

Scarlett Jennings: ...

What are you looking at me for?

The question is for you, not me. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Though she muttered in her heart, Scarlett Jennings also agreed with Simon’s proposal.

However, just because he had to leave doesn’t mean she has to follow along.

Scarlett Jennings no longer had the initial mindset of having to be tied to his side and, besides, she had her tasks to do.

Perhaps sensing her lack of response, Simon cleared his throat and couldn’t help but add,

"Didn’t you tell me that if the negotiations came through, you wanted to return to Artefact Village to check on the replica situation to prepare for the artefact replacement?

It’s just as well; the lord also needs to leave Capital Metropolitan for a while, so it’s great for you to go to the Artefact Village together."

It’s not that he has to make this decision, but the proposal to go to Artefact Village together was actually raised by Samuel Chalmers himself.

Clearly, he could have arranged it under the name of the head of the Security Bureau, yet he insisted on having Simon relay it.

Though vaguely perceiving a change in the lord’s attitude towards Scarlett Jennings, Simon consistently felt that this lord’s insistence on accompanying Scarlett Jennings every time wasn’t merely to soften their relationship.

It seemed more like he wanted to protect her at all times.

Even though he had some guesses, Simon did not bring it up further.

After all, he was just a messenger doing his job.

Upon hearing Simon’s direct proposal for Samuel Chalmers to accompany her to the Artefact Village, Scarlett Jennings agreed after a brief moment of thought.

Originally, given Samuel Chalmers’ current status, it was naturally impossible for her to ask him to accompany her everywhere.

Now, she no longer had that previous idea of having to be bound to him.

Furthermore... the Artefact Village held a special place for both her and the former Samuel Chalmers.

She couldn’t imagine how they would interact if they returned together with Samuel Chalmers.

But Simon’s words indeed made sense; Samuel Chalmers would feel more at ease not staying in Capital Metropolitan in the days to come.

Ultimately, what made Scarlett Jennings agree was another thing Simon mentioned.
