The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 597

Chapter 597: Chapter 597: Another Evil Ghost

When Scarlett Jennings voluntarily revealed how she obtained the recording, she knew her orthodox academic mentors would have opinions about her actions.

But sometimes, blindly following the rules doesn’t yield the results she desires.

Knowing there was a cause-and-effect relationship between that girl and Benson Woods, searching the phone was the most convenient way to find out the truth she could think of.

Once she decided to do this, she had already considered the consequences.

So she accepted the deduction of points.

Hmm,

she only accepts the deduction of points and won’t change her decision.

...

Thus, the second round of the competition officially ended, with Sea City and North City tied for first.

Scarlett Jennings had calculated before that even if she got zero points this round, Sea City Academy could still secure first place due to the advantage from the first round’s scores.

However, her point deduction did affect the team, so she thought about it and decided to apologize to Gregory Xander and the others.

After all, she’s not alone now.

"About my point deduction..."

Before she could speak, Ashton Todd interrupted her and mysteriously asked,

"Scarlett Jennings, can that baby spirit of yours control lottery numbers? Can it help switch the online lottery numbers to the ones I bought?"

Scarlett Jennings:...

"No."

Stella Gibson came over and squeezed Ashton Todd aside, "Scarlett, don’t mind him. I’m hungry. Why don’t we think about what to eat tonight?"

Evan Anson said, "I feel like having fried chicken."

Nathan White looked longingly and quietly agreed, "Me too, I want some too."

Gregory Xander said with a straight face, "Then we’ll have fried chicken tonight."

Everyone looked at Gregory Xander in disbelief, "Brother, don’t you always avoid fried food?"

"Trying other flavors occasionally is fine too."

Gregory Xander awkwardly said, paused, then glanced at Scarlett Jennings with a meaningful look,

"We are a team, even if it turns out terrible, I’ll oblige."

Likewise.

Being part of a team means her decision is everyone’s decision; even if they lose the competition in the end, they all embrace it.

Suddenly, Scarlett Jennings understood the meaning behind their banter.

Some things don’t need saying, as no one needs to be accountable here.

Feeling warmth inside, Scarlett Jennings involuntarily smiled, nodded after a moment,

"Alright."

As the six of them prepared to go have fried chicken, Violet Allen eagerly joined,

"You guys are having fried chicken tonight?? Can I join?"

Sea City Six:...

It’s a Sea City gathering; do you think it’s appropriate for you from North City to join?

Violet Allen evidently knew it wasn’t appropriate, but she still awkwardly said,

"I just want to thank you guys. If it wasn’t for you giving me one of the Ghost Bottles during the first round, our group couldn’t have achieved this result. I feel I should express my gratitude."

"Alright!"

Ashton Todd almost immediately agreed, pointing at Violet Allen,

"Then you’re treating us to fried chicken tonight."

Look, that’s another saving.

"...Fine."

Violet Allen was thus taken away.

Both North City and Capital Metropolitan didn’t understand how Violet Allen won Sea City’s favor.
