Chase Jennings didn’t want to keep entangling with the Loomis Family anymore, having received Azura Loomis’s consent, he directly led Azura Loomis back to pack their things.
Although Loomis’s father and mother wanted to stop them, they were more worried about their younger daughter being cursed and thus approached Scarlett Jennings eagerly.
"Master, Miss Jennings, we know you are truly skilled, please, you must save our Alice."
"Yes, Miss Jennings, considering the relationship between our two families, please help Alice; she’s still so young."
"Master Scarlett, my hand hurts so much, you must have a way to save me, right?"
The three of them talked one after another, and Scarlett Jennings silently scanned their faces, then coldly stepped back.
"Although I can tell it’s a curse, I’m not good at breaking curses, so I can’t help you."
She said, pausing before adding, "But this curse isn’t fatal; at most, it will cause you a few days of suffering. Since Azura is your biological sister, asking her to lift the curse would be more effective than asking me."
After saying this, she didn’t give them a chance to continue bothering her and turned to leave.
Indeed, she was not adept at breaking curses, but the curse on Alice Loomis’s hand was not that troublesome, and she could lift it with some effort.
But firstly, lifting the curse might disrupt the energy covered by the Evil God System, making the other side cautious.
Secondly, she didn’t want to help her.
Whether it was the Loomis couple or Alice Loomis, they all had harsh and ungrateful faces, and although Alice Loomis was only fifteen, she was already tainted with a tint of grey resentment debt.
This was a resentment debt from the living.
And similar resentment debts, she had seen before on Isolde Garrison.
Those who are bullied, though unable to resist, would impose their resentment on the bullies, and this resentment from the living would accumulate into resentment debt.
Although it might not affect her much for the time being, as the resentment debt accumulates, the person haunted by this resentment will eventually face backlash.
Just like she is now dealing with Azura, who is outwardly sweet but toxic inside, it’s hard to say this isn’t one of her "retributions."
After all, that burn wasn’t fatal, and it merely causes a few days of suffering.
If it becomes unbearable, they can continue to bother Azura, right?
With them holding Azura back, even if Azura wants to plot against the Jennings Family’s fortune, it won’t go smoothly, giving her more time to prepare.
Well...
Of course, she pays no mind to those who actively deliver their fortunes to her doorstep.
...
The actively approaching Chase Jennings, at this moment, made a great effort to break free from the Loomis Family’s pestering and left with Azura Loomis.
After all, the master has said, to remove the curse immediately, they have to find Azura Loomis, the instigator.
Watching Azura Loomis leave without looking back alongside Chase Jennings, Loomis’s father and mother were also annoyed.
Indeed, one who isn’t raised by one’s own side is not close; causing a slight argument and then running off with a man.
This daughter of theirs, truly a lost cause.
The departing Azura Loomis in the car had no idea about the thoughts of her Loomis’s parents, and even if she knew, she wouldn’t care.
She had the system, and soon would possess half of the Jennings Family’s fortune; she would live better than anyone else.
Their current preference for Alice Loomis and harsh treatment towards her, would only lead them to regret not treating her well in the future.
She was waiting for them to come begging her with faces full of shame!
Thinking this, Azura Loomis became even more resolute in her decision.
Seeing her silent, Chase Jennings thought she was still upset about the Loomis Family, and comforted her warmly,
"Azura, such family members are not worth your attachment, you still have me, and the Jennings Family, rest assured, I won’t let you be alone."
Azura Loomis looked at him and smiled slightly, "I know. Brother Chase, apart from grandma, only you truly care about me."
Chase Jennings’s thoughts stirred slightly, and in an instant, he felt as if his intentions had finally been responded to. He smiled and said,
"Perfect, I’ve prepared a surprise for you. You’ll definitely love it when you see it."
"Really?" Azura Loomis’s eyes gleamed with anticipation, then she hinted, "Actually, I also prepared a surprise for Brother Chase."
Chase Jennings did not suspect anything, his face immediately showed surprise, and he pressed the accelerator even harder.
Soon, Chase Jennings took Azura Loomis back to his house in the city.
This house he only lived in occasionally, but he had someone come to clean and maintain it every three days.
Yesterday, before Chase Jennings returned, he had arranged for the maid to clean up in advance. When Azura Loomis entered the house, she saw a spacious and tidy room, the sunlight streaming in, showing no signs of being uninhabited for long.
Chase Jennings carried her luggage into the house, thinking that this place might become their "nest" in the future, and even took a few photos with her to post on their friends circle.
Finally, he pulled her hand and led her to another room.
Azura Loomis let him lead her willingly, and when he opened the door, even she was momentarily stunned.
The room was filled with glass cabinets covering the walls, all filled with various dolls.
Most of the dolls even looked somewhat familiar.
If the Jiang Family were here, they would recognize that these were part of the dolls Azura Loomis had previously claimed to have dealt with.
"Apart from the ones you entrusted to me earlier, there are also those you dealt with last time. I remember many of them were your favorites."
Chase Jennings earnestly said, "If it weren’t for Scarlett Jennings and others forcing you, you wouldn’t have willingly dealt with them like that, so I helped you secretly keep them.
This room will be your new doll room from now on. You can arrange it any way you like, and I can assure you, no one will touch your dolls again."
Azura Loomis listened to his words, moisture seeming to gather beneath her eyes. She was first taken aback, followed by overwhelming emotion.
She hadn’t expected that his surprise for her would be like this.
A fleeting thought wavered in her heart.
But it was just a fleeting moment.
Soon, a determined look crossed Azura Loomis’s eyes, and as if overwhelmed by emotion, she suddenly hugged Chase Jennings in front of her.
"Brother Chase, you are so good to me."
Chase Jennings initially stiffened, then realizing, quickly embraced her tightly, his voice carrying a gentle promise,
"I will always be good to you."
Azura Loomis looked up at him, as if seeking confirmation, "Really? Then if I ask you to fulfill a wish for me, would you agree?"
"Of course," Chase Jennings affectionately assured her, "Whatever you want, I’ll help you achieve it."
Azura Loomis’s lips immediately curled into a smile, her eyes and brows softening, but her voice somewhat light,
"You said it, then... I want all of your fortune."
Chase Jennings, upon hearing this, hadn’t yet grasped what fortune meant when his consciousness seemed to whirl.
It seemed in the blink of an eye, the view before him suddenly changed.
He felt as if he was locked inside the cabinet, and through the glass door, he saw Azura and "him" smiling faintly at him.
In that instant, Chase Jennings felt his mind go blank, even unable to discern whether the scene before him was a dream or reality.
It took him a long while to hear Azura Loomis speaking to him.
It was still that pleasant voice, but the words spoken made his heart chill inch by inch.
She said,
"Brother Chase, do you like the surprise I prepared for you?"
