The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 796

Chapter 796: Chapter 796: If I Call Out to It, Would It Dare Answer?

The black mist continued to spread near the stairway.

Scarlett Jennings stood on this side of the barrier, her eyes deeply fixed on Elias Quinn.

The so-called conditions he offered were nothing more than making her give up the people of Sea City to ensure the safety of the entire Jennings Family.

But such conditions, not to mention she wouldn’t agree, not even the rest of the Jennings Family would agree.

"As long as Sea City is safeguarded, the Jennings Family will naturally be safeguarded too. So, I reject your conditions."

Scarlett Jennings didn’t even need to ask Donovan Jennings and Old Sir Jiang behind her, because she knew their pride and understood their choices.

As for a few individuals in the Jennings Family still in a coma, they weren’t within her considerations.

"As for what you said about the Heaven..."

Scarlett Jennings paused here, glanced at the direction of the ceiling, and spoke with a tone filled with disregard,

"If I called upon it, would it dare respond?"

Elias Quinn: ...

He knew she would refuse, but didn’t expect she would not even consider the Heavenly Dao.

Elias Quinn squinted his eyes slightly,

"I heard you awakened the Demon Vein in the Otherworld, so don’t you know, what the Demon Clan fears the most should be the Heavenly Dao."

Scarlett Jennings looked at him, unmoved and unaffected,

"The Demon Clan may fear the Heavenly Dao, but what does it have to do with me, someone who’s only a quarter demon?"

"So, you’re saying there’s nothing more to discuss?" Elias Quinn asked expressionlessly.

"We can still talk, but I want a different condition."

Scarlett Jennings suddenly softened her tone and asked,

"I want to know what conditions the Ghost Fog offered you. By cooperating with the Ghost Fog to take Sea City’s fortune, what do you gain?"

Elias Quinn’s voice was indifferent, "That’s none of your business."

Elias Quinn refused to answer, and Scarlett Jennings was not annoyed.

"Then let me ask another question."

Scarlett Jennings looked at Elias Quinn again, seriously asking,

"In your dealings against Sea City, do your parents from the Quinn Family, who raised you in this world, know about this?

Does the fortune you’re planning to take from Sea City include theirs too?"

At Scarlett Jennings’ words, Elias Quinn suddenly paused.

But soon, he furrowed his brow, although his voice held little emotion,

"They have nothing to do with me."

He was stating a fact.

Even though he grew up with the identity of Elias Quinn, he never considered that couple as his family.

Even when taken away secretly by the people of the Ghost Fog from the Security Bureau, he never contacted those two people.

Between him and them, there had long been no connection.

Elias Quinn spoke coldly, but next to him, Gregory Xander heard it inexplicably, always feeling that Scarlett Jennings suddenly brought up the topic to unsettle Elias Quinn, or perhaps...

As if realizing something, he suddenly came to his senses.

Scarlett Jennings wasn’t talking nonsense.

She was stalling for time.

She was waiting for Benedict Beast to extract the Dreamy Tapirus’ true form from Layla Xalvadora’s body!

Gregory Xander thought of this, and evidently, Elias Quinn did too. Looking at Scarlett Jennings, his tone inexplicably carried some dissatisfaction,

"You’re stalling for time."

He looked at Layla Xalvadora within the barrier behind Scarlett Jennings, as well as the special array laid around her.

"Do you think extracting the Dreamy Tapirus’ true form from her body can ruin the Ghost Fog’s plan?"

Scarlett Jennings, having her intent discovered, didn’t hide it, only said,

"Whether it can or can’t, we’ll only know if we try."

Elias Quinn’s eyes slightly narrowed, "So it seems... there’s really nothing more to discuss."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black mist originally dispersing around him suddenly seemed to have received some sort of command and began quickly advancing toward Scarlett Jennings.
