The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 1029

Chapter 1029: Chapter 1029: Broken Family

Albert Lester opened his mouth, trying to say something, but right then, he saw Scarlett Jennings raise her hand, her fingertips glowing with a demonic light, as she gently waved at him.

Albert Lester suddenly lost his balance, as if something had lifted him and thrown him into the Inferno Abyss space behind.

At the same time, those dozen Shadow Souls were sent into the Domain by Scarlett Jennings.

In the following moments, justice was served for the wronged, and vengeance for the hated.

In her Domain, even if the soul was repeatedly torn apart, it wouldn’t easily die.

...

When the police team came in, they saw only Scarlett Jennings in the room, and were shocked, quickly asking,

"Where’s Albert Lester?"

Scarlett Jennings sensed something and then said, "Wait a bit longer."

The police team was puzzled, what were they waiting for?

But soon, they knew what they were waiting for.

Suddenly, without warning, the man appeared out of thin air again. When he appeared, his exterior showed no damage, yet he seemed insane, his eyes filled with extreme terror.

It was clearly just a short time, yet it seemed like he had lived a few lifetimes inside.

The methods he once used on his victims were now turned on him, his body and soul repeatedly suffering torture. He could distinctly feel the pain and fear those people felt before dying, yet strangely... he could not die.

Why hadn’t he died?

Why was he still alive?

This indeed was Hell.

By the nineteenth time he was killed, he regretted it and begged them for mercy.

But, it wasn’t over yet.

As his soul seemed on the verge of collapse, Scarlett Jennings finally released him from the Domain.

Though outwardly he appeared unharmed, from her perspective, the soul in front of her was already tattered.

A broken and incomplete soul, if not repaired, wouldn’t be able to live a complete life in the next reincarnation.

But, it was no longer her concern.

Compared to Albert Lester’s collapse and despair, the Resentful Energy on all the ghosts that emerged from the Domain had finally diminished, making even the Ghost Bodies appear lighter.

Scarlett Jennings said to them,

"Three days later, the Taoism Academy will set up a place for you to cleanse your Resentful Energy and proceed to reincarnation. In these three days, you won’t be drawn by Resentful Energy to stay by his side anymore."

She paused, her voice softening,

"Go back and see the ones you long for and say goodbye properly."

As Scarlett Jennings finished speaking, the ghosts before her all emitted a sorrowful cry. The murderer who killed them had finally received retribution, yet they couldn’t be resurrected.

After bowing to Scarlett Jennings in gratitude, the ghosts left, heading towards the relatives and loved ones they kept in their hearts.

Only the ghost fan, who had been staring at Scarlett Jennings all along, remained.

Her name was Cecilia Houghton, the girl who woke Albert Lester on the bus and was murdered by him in a fit of unwarranted anger.

She never imagined, after dying so tragically, that her idol Scarlett Jennings would catch the killer on her behalf, even giving her the chance for personal revenge.

If it weren’t for being a ghost, she would have wanted to run over and hug her idol.

Thank her for redeeming her once again.

Scarlett Jennings could see a faint, very weak thread of connection between them, representing the faith power Cecilia once gave her.

This time, it could be considered settling the karma between the two.

"Aren’t you going back?" Scarlett Jennings asked her.

Cecilia looked awkward and dejected for a moment, and then said,

"I broke off ties with my family long ago; they probably don’t even know I’m dead. I have no one to say goodbye to..."

Similar situations as Evangeline’s family occurred in several other households.

From those whose bodies had been found but didn’t know the killer, those found but unclaimed, to those completely unaware their children were victims.

Today, throughout Mountain City and Cathay, several families were plunged into fear and tears.

And Albert Lester, the culprit of all this misery, and his family were quickly dug up by netizens.

Albert Lester’s parents, long divorced and remarried, saw online reports of their son as a twisted serial killer. After their initial shock, they were overcome by loud cursing,

"We should’ve never had him!"

"The Lester family is disgraced with such a murderer!"

"I don’t have a son like him!" 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Various curses and voices of disdain merged between the internet and reality, and although Albert Lester couldn’t see them, he seemed to hear countless voices condemning him, continuing to torment his soul eternally, robbing him of peace even in life.

Demon Street courtyard.

Scarlett Jennings sat under the ginkgo tree, trying to merge the black threads inside a Jade Token into a blank Talisman.

Samuel Chalmers walked over, observing the black line she drew out, sensing it carefully, and raised an eyebrow,

"Is this, Albert Lester’s malicious thoughts?"

Scarlett Jennings nodded,

"I tried to extract a thread in the Domain; unexpectedly, it really worked."

She paused, looking at Samuel Chalmers, her gaze clear,

"You said Shu’e is formed from Mortal Realm’s evil thoughts. I’m wondering if a sufficiently large evil could also attract him?"

Shu’e had disappeared for two years, and it remained a hidden threat.

Though she hadn’t yet mastered the Ten-tailed, it was time to take action and deal with him.
