The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 537

Chapter 537: Chapter 537: Unusual Events Must Have a Demon

Scarlett Jennings was momentarily unsure whether to continue the conversation after being interrupted.

Especially when meeting Samuel Chalmers’ deep gaze, her mind inexplicably felt a bit chaotic.

She felt a subtle emotion in her heart, yet dared not explore it deeply.

After a while, she merely muttered,

"Oh."

After saying this, it seemed too simplistic a response. Scarlett Jennings’ thoughts wandered, as if she had suddenly realized something,

"But how do you have an apartment upstairs?"

Scarlett wasn’t curious about how Samuel had another property.

After all, with his wealth, he could own an apartment in every city nationwide if he wanted to.

What Scarlett was curious about was, how did he have a place that happened to be right above hers?

Even if he decided to stay temporarily, he couldn’t possibly have found and bought a suitable place overnight.

The apartment upstairs must be his own.

Samuel Chalmers didn’t seem surprised by her question; he simply said,

"This complex was developed by the Chalmers Group."

The fact was, Lucas Jennings initially reached out to Samuel to inquire about properties in this complex.

Knowing he planned to co-invest with his brother for a property as a birthday gift for Scarlett Jennings, Samuel had two units reserved directly.

One for Lucas Jennings.

One he kept for himself.

He hadn’t intended to do much with it originally.

But looking back now, keeping it was the right choice.

Knowing that Scarlett dislikes being "protected" at all times, and she doesn’t need such "protection".

Samuel Chalmers just said,

"You mentioned before that you wanted to accumulate merit with me. Does that still hold?"

Hearing him suddenly bring this up, Scarlett naturally nodded,

"Of course, it counts."

Although she wanted to uncover the secret of his golden light, it didn’t prevent her from wanting to help him regain it.

Upon learning Samuel moved in proactively to accumulate merit, Scarlett no longer felt conflicted.

"Just so happens I accepted a task yesterday. If you have time, you can join me."

She had come across this task while tidying up the room earlier today.

Coincidentally, this task was also about demons.

The tasks posted on the Spiritual Affairs APP are varied and odd, but those involving demons are rare.

Because there’s an unwritten rule within the Mystical Sect and even the Security Bureau.

Any affair concerning demons should be handled by the Mystic Regulation Office itself.

Unless stumbled upon by chance, even if the Security Bureau intervenes, the final handling is passed to the Mystic Regulation Office.

Just like that rat demon from last time.

Since entering the Mystical Sect, Scarlett Jennings rarely encountered mystical creatures, much less demon beasts like she did today.

This is also why she wanted to stay and investigate further.

She had plenty of talismans for dealing with Underworld Specters, but not many specifically for demons. Just as well to use the opportunity to test which talismans were more effective.

After talking with Samuel Chalmers, the two of them directly sought out the individuals related to this task’s objective the following day.

This task was posted by the Mystic Regulation Office in the Capital Metropolitan.

The incident initially occurred in the Capital Metropolitan, starting when a hospital simultaneously had three women pregnant with multiples exposed online.

Being pregnant with multiples itself is not unusual, but such cases appearing densely in the same hospital is.

Moreover, all three women became pregnant around the same time, piquing the curiosity of some.

Many were unaware that multiples can be created artificially.

Artificially, as in test-tube babies.

Some couples, due to unique circumstances, can’t conceive naturally, leading to the development of artificial external fertilization methods.

To ensure successful conception, multiple embryos are usually nurtured for intrauterine transfer, fearing a single embryo’s insufficient viability might result in failure post-transfer.
