Chapter 42 -42 Scarlett Jennings, Such a Cold and Ruthless Individual

In the Jennings Family, Lucas Jennings was always synonymous with rashness.

Whenever something upset him, regardless of who you were, he’d give you a piece of his mind, let alone someone who wasn’t even part of the Jennings Family.

Josiah Garrison was suddenly berated by a boy of fourteen or fifteen, and his face turned unpleasant beyond mere words, yet he still tried to maintain the dignity befitting a Garrison family member and questioned with a furrowed brow,

“Who are you? I’m talking to my sister, don’t you know it’s rude to eavesdrop on others?”

That elder’s tone of reprimanding made the corner of Lucas’s mouth twitch.

Lucas could never stand being lectured by others. Besides Old Sir Jiang and his uncle, anyone who dared to dictate to him would find him ready to explode on the spot.

“She’s not your sister! She’s now a Jennings! She’s part of our Jennings Family. Her brother is upstairs, her brother downstairs. Who do you think you are, calling yourself her brother? Stop pretending to be family here!”

Upstairs, Adam Jennings: …

You acknowledged her yourself, why involve me?

Lucas didn’t care what Adam thought, and he launched a full-on verbal assault at Josiah,

“I heard you going on and on from upstairs. You say things like ‘we weren’t mad at you’ and ‘we treated you well.’ Who are you trying to fool?! With your meager skills, you still think of pulling off tricks? Scarlett Jennings might be slow, but the rest of our Jennings Family isn’t dumb!”

Scarlett Jennings: …

I suspect you’re using this to slander me and I have evidence.

Lucas hadn’t heard everything from start to finish, but he had caught the gist of the conversations.

The Garrison family, after all, came knocking on Scarlett Jennings’s door for help.

Looking for help but with that kind of attitude; if Scarlett could tolerate it, he couldn’t.

“The Garrison Clan’s intentions over the years have spread across the North Atlantic, and you’re still putting up this family act? You can’t even fool me, let alone someone as cold-hearted as Scarlett Jennings; would she fall for your trickery?”

Scarlett Jennings: …

That’s the second time, I’ll say it again, I have evidence.

Lucas was riled up, and he pointed to the jewelry box on the table without another word. He pulled out the bracelet inside with a look of disdain.

“You’re looking down on someone by bringing such a trashy bracelet as a favor?!”

As he spoke, he raised his hand intending to smash the bracelet.

Scarlett’s face finally changed, and her fingers flicked swiftly toward Lucas. A stream of spiritual power hit Lucas’s raised hand.

Lucas’s arm felt numb as if he couldn’t move for a moment, and the next moment, he saw Scarlett, who had been on the single sofa, seemingly flicker into motion, crossing to him in two steps and snatching the bracelet from his hand.

She glared at him with her almond eyes.

The bracelet she had painstakingly retrieved had almost been ruined by this fool.

Scarlett suspected this fool of doing it on purpose.

Silly Lucas now bore an expression of terror. Just then, his whole arm had been immobilized, yet as soon as Scarlett snatched the bracelet away, his arm moved freely again!

He didn’t believe it had nothing to do with Scarlett!

Adam Jennings upstairs was even more shocked.

Lucas downstairs might not have seen it clearly, but from his position, Adam could see Scarlett’s actions distinctly.

In two strides, she had crossed to Lucas from three meters away, even with a table in between, her body unwavering, taking those steps as if it were nothing.

This Scarlett Jennings, could she possibly have some skills?
