The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 910

Chapter 910: Chapter 910: Let’s Begin

Jade City.

Addison seemed to sense something and suddenly awoke from her slumber. The next moment, black mist poured in from outside, slowly taking the shape of a crow within it.

Addison carefully observed the crow’s eyes, as if absorbing the scene it had witnessed.

Once she realized what had happened, her expression turned rather peculiar.

After a while, she let out a low chuckle and said,

"That boundary breaking that adults couldn’t research yet coincidentally matched with the Otherworld by Scarlett Jennings and the others?"

If that gentleman knew, how furious would he be?

Her smile shifted, and she couldn’t help but hum softly,

"Magnolia Hearne is quite lucky; even a casually born daughter of hers has such luck."

Unable to decipher her emotions, Addison simply got up and walked out of the room.

Upon leaving, she ran into Elias Quinn, who was meditating in the living room.

Elias half-opened his eyes, glancing over her sports bra and shorts from her sleep, and reminded her expressionlessly,

"Dress properly, or get out of my house."

Addison raised an eyebrow, "Is it my figure that’s unappealing?"

Elias remained expressionless, his gaze sweeping over the few black holes torn in her body,

"It’s the holes on your body that are unsightly, dirtying my eyes."

He paused, then lifted his gaze again and said,

"Although I have cooperated with Ghost Fog, that doesn’t mean I’m on the same side as you. Since you’re fine, leave as soon as possible."

Addison shrugged,

"But I have nowhere else to go. You know I just returned from the Otherworld last year, and there’s no place for me in Ghost Fog anymore.

Now that the headquarters is destroyed and the gentleman is missing, I’m no longer part of Ghost Fog."

She said, leaning closer to Elias,

"How about I stay? Maybe the two of us can do something together."

Elias glanced at her, refusing without hesitation,

"Not needed."

He was a Heavenly Path Envoy, and his last cooperation with Ghost Fog was purely for mutual benefit.

Now that Ghost Fog is no more, Addison holds no value in his eyes.

But if Addison could be easily dismissed, she wouldn’t have stayed here after escaping from the Azure Sea.

With Ghost Fog’s headquarters destroyed and her mission a failure, sticking by Elias was the only way to conceal her location from that gentleman and the Security Bureau.

So, at Elias’s place, she awaited.

A week passed.

In the week before the one-month deadline agreed upon with Samuel Chalmers, Scarlett Jennings and the others finally confirmed the sea barrier plan.

Before this, the Mystical Council had already voiced their dissatisfaction with Samuel Chalmers for the third time due to the delay in the original plan to cleanse the pollution.

Samuel paid no heed to this.

During another meeting between the two sides, an elder from the Mystical Council brought it up again, and Samuel simply said,

"A month means a month. If you bring this up to waste my time again, the Mystical Council will dissolve on its own."

With that, he left with Simon.

Though no fight broke out this time, the elders of the Mystical Council were enraged enough.

"Such a significant matter is haphazardly entrusted to a makeshift ensemble that hasn’t even properly graduated from Taoism Academy. This is utter nonsense."

"Clearly, the Dragon Vein handling this could solve the issue, yet it’s being indefinitely postponed. What is he thinking?"

Isn’t the very existence of the National Protection Dragon Vein meant to resolve these troubles for us?

The leading elder, noticing the dissatisfied expression of the person next to him, calmly gestured for patience,

"Since that’s the intention, further debate is pointless. Only a week remains, so let’s just wait and see."

He paused, then added,
