Chapter 534: Chapter 534: The Scent of a Demon

Scarlett Jennings instinctively fixed her eyes on the Benedict Jade in his hand.

Just as she thought there might be some special reaction between the Benedict Jade and the Golden Light on Samuel Chalmers, she saw the golden thread flowing into the jade quietly vanish.

The air was filled with silence.

Neither Samuel Chalmers nor the Benedict Jade showed any special reaction.

Scarlett Jennings: ...

Could she have been mistaken?

Samuel Chalmers had already handed the Benedict Jade back to her, his expression unchanged, as he asked,

"This is a Benedict Jade, is there anything special about it?"

"...I also want to know what’s special about it."

Special enough that the Heavenly Dao spared no effort to strike it with Fire Thunder.

Because previously, Dashiell said that the Fire Thunder held the aura of the Heavenly Dao, Scarlett Jennings had assumed that the Fire Thunder today was also the work of the Heavenly Dao.

First, it created a baffling system to steal Fortune, and now it suddenly delivers Fire Thunder.

Scarlett Jennings’s impression of the Heavenly Dao had started to crumble.

She even thought that the current Heavenly Dao might have some serious illness.

Of course, these words could only be pondered in her heart.

Without continuing to dwell on why the Heavenly Dao suddenly sent down Fire Thunder, Scarlett Jennings briefly explained to Samuel Chalmers the origin of this jade.

Until the butler knocked on the door outside, asking if he should help clean up the debris in the room to avoid hindering her tidying up.

Scarlett Jennings casually dismissed the butler, then turned her gaze back to Samuel Chalmers,

"You need to leave."

Samuel Chalmers nodded, looked at her for a long moment, and asked, "How should I leave?"

Earlier, out of concern for how to explain why Samuel Chalmers suddenly appeared here, she had him hide.

Now obviously, she couldn’t just let him leave openly.

Scarlett Jennings thought for a moment and placed a Concealing Talisman on him.

"This talisman will significantly weaken your presence and aura, allowing you to leave unnoticed. I’ll have Little Pretty take you out through the back door."

As for the home’s surveillance, Sophie Harper could handle it for a while.

Samuel Chalmers raised an eyebrow slightly at the talisman placed on him,

"You’re having me use the back door?"

As the Family Head of the Chalmers Family, using the back door was never his habit.

Scarlett Jennings looked at Samuel Chalmers, momentarily confused,

"Do you want to use the front door?"

After speaking, she felt that asking Samuel Chalmers to use the back door seemed to indeed be a bit unfair to him.

It made it look like they were sneaking around doing shady things.

As Scarlett Jennings was contemplating this and planning to suggest an alternative, Samuel Chalmers said,

"The back door will do."

After speaking, without waiting for her reaction, he opened the door and walked out.

In that manner, did he look the least bit like someone sneaking out?

If she were told this was his own house, she’d believe it.

Scarlett Jennings quickly followed him with Little Pretty and was about to take him through the corridor to the west wing.

However, just as they turned the corner, they saw Adam Jennings coming from the other end.

Scarlett Jennings went ahead, planning to distract Adam Jennings herself; as for Samuel Chalmers, he should just walk by as if nothing happened.

As long as he didn’t deliberately speak up, and with her cover, the Concealing Talisman would make people subconsciously ignore his presence.

Of course, Samuel Chalmers believed what she said.

Taking the opportunity as Scarlett Jennings engaged Adam Jennings, he nonchalantly walked past them.

Then, he saw Adam Jennings, who had been speaking with Scarlett Jennings, catching him in the corner of his eye and, after a pause, awkwardly greeted,
