The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 942

Chapter 942: Chapter 942: The Stolen Opportunity

Kingston Jennings listened to the story of how Adam Jennings formed a bond with Benedict Beast, and for a long while, he had no reaction.

He originally thought that his ability to survive smoothly until now was all thanks to what his aunt had taught him back then.

Now that he thought about it, he realized how naive he had been.

Although he used the substitute Child his aunt left to shield himself from the Child Curse and survived a life-and-death ordeal, each time his Divine Soul collapsed, it could have led to his body following suit.

But recalling carefully, even though he had been continuously sick and physically weak over the years, there was never a time when he truly faced a life-threatening situation.

He thought he was supporting himself all these years, but he never realized there were others secretly supporting him from the shadows.

This person, no less, was his younger brother who had always seemed to "dislike" him.

Kingston looked at Adam, his eyes rarely showing some complexity.

Adam was still surprised by how he and Benedict Beast came to be linked, and when he suddenly met Kingston’s gaze, he felt an inexplicable jolt in his heart.

He hadn’t forgotten that the first person to find the Benedict Back Armor was Kingston.

If, if he hadn’t "taken" that piece of back armor...

Today, Kingston could have been the one with the opportunity with Benedict Beast, and with its protection, he might not have been plagued by sickness like a typical Child Life.

After all, when Scarlett Jennings said she wanted to nourish Kingston’s soul, she mentioned using the custom Benedict Jade for him.

Even though it was never used later, in hindsight, it seemed predestined—

The chance with Benedict Beast should have been Kingston’s.

He was the one who took away Kingston’s opportunity.

Now, as he looked at the mini Benedict Beast resting in his palm, Adam was suddenly filled with a sense of guilt and unease.

He wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say.

Then, he saw Kingston step forward and return the mini Benedict Beast to him.

Adam absentmindedly took it, only to see Kingston turn directly around and head back into the house after giving it to him.

For a moment, Adam’s emotions were in turmoil!

Kingston...he must be upset!

The hand holding the mini Benedict was slightly warm, and Adam’s emotions were fluctuating inexplicably. Lucas Jennings, beside him, didn’t sense this, still excited from hearing how Adam and Benedict Beast became connected.

Lucas decided that when he returned, he too would search the mountains to see if he could find something like a fossil.

Who knows, he might pick up something a Divine Beast left behind~

As he was happily thinking about this, he saw Adam suddenly set aside the mini Benedict, holding only the documents related to the Jade Mine. Then he looked down at the mini Benedict and said,

"I’ll take over this Jade Mine, so now we’re even."

His voice was cold and detached, taking everyone in the yard, including Benedict Beast, by surprise.

Everyone, just like the tilted head of Benedict Beast at that moment, was filled with questions.

However, Adam continued in a cold voice,

"I never wanted to take care of you! What use is a Divine Beast to me?

You just always want to eat jade, and it has to be good jade with Spiritual Energy. Who can afford to keep you?"

Mini Benedict Beast: ???

So it didn’t give him "food money"?

After all, being a Divine Beast’s Spiritual Sense for thousands of years, even when Adam discounted its value face-to-face, its emotions were very stable. The jade-carved eyes showed a clear and innocent awareness as it looked at him.

Adam felt pain in his heart as it looked at him in that way. But he suppressed the pain, turned his head, and stiffly said again,

"You’ve become so small now, and I dislike small things the most."

He said, taking a deep breath,

"I, I don’t want you anymore! Hurry up and find someone else to take care of you!"

Kingston is the one you should be with.

He had taken away Kingston’s fortune for so many years, and now it was time to return things to their rightful owner.

Outside the courtyard.

Hannah Hearne had just approached when she heard what sounded like a lover’s cold and heartless breakup line, and immediately she dashed to the courtyard gate, poking her head in.

She loved dramatic romance novel plot twists the most.

Seeing the scene in the courtyard clearly, Hannah became even more excited, her tail almost bouncing.
