The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 904

Chapter 904: Chapter 904: Ten-tailed Sky Fox

...

Lucas Jennings has been feeling quite pleased these past few days.

The reason is that the photos he took at the Academy of Mystique have gone viral on social media, especially the one with his aunt, where the five large fox tails are spread out behind them, stunning everyone.

Many friends who are into cosplay have asked him which exhibition he attended and where he got such realistic fox tails and dog ears.

He even received invitations from people at school to join their circle.

Although Lucas was proud, as a loyal little cousin to his sister, he couldn’t possibly reveal the secrets of the Academy of Mystique.

Chatting on his phone while stepping off the car, just as he entered the door, he heard that his sister had returned.

Lucas immediately tossed the phone aside, not minding the ongoing chat, and was about to rush upstairs to find his sister.

However, he hadn’t even set foot on the stairs before Donovan Jennings called out to him from the side room,

"Come over here." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The voice didn’t sound like his usual self; it carried an inexplicable coldness.

Lucas suddenly felt as if the back of his neck had been grabbed by fate, obediently turning to walk into the side room, only to find Dashiell there, and his brother’s face looking rather unsightly.

At Donovan’s request, Dashiell had already given him a brief explanation of the events of the past few days.

Regarding Samuel Chalmers’ arrangements, Dashiell was not entirely clear, but it didn’t matter, as Donovan would piece together the logic himself.

After sorting through everything, he had roughly understood why Scarlett had suddenly become dispirited.

From an outsider’s perspective, Samuel Chalmers was not wrong in his actions.

But regardless of whether he was wrong or not, since his actions made his sister sad, then he was wrong.

Without probing further, Donovan directly instructed his assistant,

"Make arrangements for me to go to Capital Metropolitan tomorrow morning."

Hearing this, Lucas immediately said, "I’m going too!"

Daring to make his sister sad, he must let them know that the Jennings Family is not to be messed with.

Adam Jennings wanted to go along too, but he knew it wasn’t his turn to take the lead in this situation; at best, he could just go to lend support.

Another reason was that he wanted to retrieve his Benedict Beast.

It was promised to be left there temporarily, but it had already been several days.

Donovan looked at the two of them and simply said, "Stay home, both of you; I’ll go alone."

After a pause, he added, "No need to tell Scarlett about this."

He planned to return after taking care of matters.

Scarlett Jennings was unaware of Donovan’s decision. At that moment, she was curled up in Magnolia Hearne’s tails, sleeping soundly.

From the moment she returned and was enveloped by her mother’s fox tails, Scarlett felt an unprecedented sense of security.

Perhaps truly exhausted, she quickly fell asleep.

The scent of her mother lingered at the tip of her nose, and Scarlett allowed herself to surrender to a deep slumber.

Then, she dreamt again of that fragment of a dream.

Layer upon layer of mountains hidden within misty fog, lying quietly on the earth like giant dragons.

Passing through the mountainous barriers, there was still the woman slumbering on the mountain range.

Her snow-white hair cascaded like a waterfall over the verdant earth, and like her hair, nine beautiful snow-colored fox tails swayed gently behind her.

Scarlett initially thought it was the same as previous dreams, but upon focusing, she found something different.

She examined the swaying snow-colored fox tails closely and suddenly froze.

No, not nine tails.

That was... ten tails.

Scarlett abruptly awoke from her dream, opening her eyes to the familiar room.

Outside the window, it was unknowingly already dark, but inside was peaceful and serene.

The room was dim, yet the starlight above shined softly.

She was still wrapped tightly in three fox tails, with Magnolia Hearne lying beside her, deep in sleep, her breathing calm and steady.

"Sometimes, they are just too insensitive to their feelings and unsure if they like someone at the moment.

So you might want to temporarily remove yourself from his world, and let him temporarily step out of yours, to adapt to another way of living."

"Although I previously told you to be proactive, it doesn’t mean being proactive at all costs. If he is meant to return, he will, without needing you to follow every step."

She said,

"Don’t be in a hurry; you still have a long life ahead."

Demon’s lives are indeed longer than humans’.

Half-Demon, too.

Listening to her words, Scarlett seemed to ponder.

From reuniting with Samuel Chalmers, due to the joy of finding him after losing him, she had indeed been following him closely, fearing he would disappear again.

Perhaps, she really should let go a bit.

Not continuing to dwell on it, Scarlett then switched topics to her dream.

When she mentioned it wasn’t nine tails but ten tails, Magnolia Hearne clearly paused.

Seeing her reaction, Scarlett knew she probably knew something, so she asked,

"Does the Ten-tailed Fox truly exist?"

Magnolia Hearne replied,

"The Hearne Clan did have a Ten-tailed Fox over ten thousand years ago.

A Ten-tailed Sky Fox is akin to a demon god and is said to have access to the Heavenly Dao."

She paused here, looking at Scarlett with a slightly hesitant expression, finally continuing,

"I don’t know why you dreamt of the Ten-tailed Sky Fox, but there is a legend in the Hearne Clan—

Only the Half-Demon Bloodline is most likely to give rise to a descendant with the Ten-tailed Sky Fox bloodline."

That very bloodline is also what the clan has been seeking as the ideal vessel.
