The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 955

Chapter 955: Chapter 955: Dashiell’s Gratitude

The golden light emanating from her fingertips fell on her brow and cast a faint golden shimmer before her eyes.

Through this golden light, Scarlett Jennings gazed at the person in front of her and found herself somewhat dazed.

Suddenly, she recalled that day.

It was here as well; he held onto her and said,

"Your existence has always been special to me."

At the time, she hadn’t thought much of it, but in that moment, Scarlett Jennings had a fleeting realization that the "me" he spoke of perhaps referred to more than just him.

And also, the Samuel Chalmers of before.

Just like the words he spoke to her now and the way he looked at her, all gave Scarlett Jennings an illusion.

It was as if the person in front of her was the very one she once knew.

Her thoughts surfaced, and almost instinctively, she called out,

"Samuel Chalmers?"

The voice carried a hint of uncertain clarity; at the motion of his hand that rested on her brow, Samuel Chalmers paused briefly, and then he withdrew his hand without responding.

He knew she was calling for the Samuel Chalmers of the past.

The daze in Scarlett Jennings’ eyes faded into clarity with his silence.

A wave of loss swept over her heart, but it lingered for only a moment.

Scarlett Jennings didn’t feel like it was truly her illusion just now. More than an illusion, she preferred to believe that the Vein Soul belonging to Samuel Chalmers was indeed merging with the person in front of her.

At the very least, the Dragon Vein she first met wouldn’t have said such words to her today.

Perhaps it was the familiar golden light before her, or maybe it was the sudden truth that made her miss the person of the past even more. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Knowing it was impossible, yet Scarlett Jennings instinctively reached out and held onto the sleeve of the man about to leave.

Samuel Chalmers paused in his actions but didn’t move further.

With lowered eyes, he observed her fingers seemingly merging into his golden light.

Just as before.

No matter when she approached, his golden light would always first embrace her within it.

Scarlett Jennings seemed oblivious to this, still watching him, her voice growing softer as she spoke,

"Samuel Chalmers, thank you."

It didn’t matter if the person in front of her was him or not, but she thought, he would always hear her voice.

She felt the need to say thank you.

Thank you for silently watching over her when she was unaware.

Even now, if he was still trying to get closer to her, what reason did she have... not to wait for him a little longer?

She said,

"You asked me to wait, and I agreed. But, could you... not be too long?"

Although no matter how long it took, she would wait.

But if possible, she wished that the day of his complete return could be sooner, just a little faster...

Unexpectedly, Samuel Chalmers saw the light in her eyes, no longer intentionally cold and distant, but filled with anticipation, her gaze completely enveloping him.

An indescribable emotion filled his heart as he looked steadily back into the light in her eyes,

After a long pause, he answered hoarsely,

"Okay."

...

The bright moon hung high, the last dark cloud quietly dispersing in the ink-blue sky.

The moonlight poured over every cobblestone in the ancient mountain village.

It also happened to illuminate a dragon and a turtle sneaking a peek from the second floor.

Yet clearly, a certain awkwardness lingered in both of their expressions.

Especially Dashiell.

The imagined scene of emotional embrace was completely absent.

Dashiell even doubted if his logic, after Dragon Transformation, had diverged from that of ordinary people?

After all, a Divine Dragon must be different from ordinary people.

He sighed inwardly, this was probably the loneliness after transforming into a dragon.

Not watching the two downstairs any longer, Dashiell flicked his tail and the small Silver Dragon in its Silver Armor took flight into the air.

He still had another task tonight.

Shellback saw him leave and instinctively asked him,

"Where are you heading?"

Only to realize as he spoke that this person couldn’t hear him.

He clicked his tongue mentally.

What did Dragon Transformation matter? He couldn’t even hear the voice of his system?
