The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon!-Chapter 2 - That Mountain Belongs to Our Family

Timothy Garrison, who had been silent until now, finally spoke, his youthful features resembling his father's and showing a hint of displeasure and heartbreak.

"Scarlett, that's Isolde's item. Since when did you become so insatiably greedy?"

Scarlett Garrison quietly clenched her hands at her sides as she heard him continue, "If you obediently listen and give the spot to Isolde, I can persuade Mom and Dad to let you stay."

Timothy Garrison believed he had offered her the best choice, and she should be grateful.

Their father also said, "Even though you are adopted, I have always treated you as my biological daughter. We, the Garrison Family, are a respectable family and wouldn't do the disgraceful thing of sending our daughter back to her biological parents without any belongings. Your biological parents' family isn't well-off, take whatever should be taken."

He didn't mention a word about giving her the bracelet though.

Isolde Garrison then spoke pitifully, "Sister, I know you really want this bracelet, but it's Grandma's item... How about this, I can send you some money. Would ten thousand be enough? If not, how about twenty thousand?"

The underlying implication was clearly that she wanted the bracelet just to sell it for money.

Scarlett Garrison shot a cold, fierce glance at Isolde Garrison.

Isolde Garrison was so startled by her gaze that she shivered slightly.

Scarlett Garrison looked at the three of them with extreme indifference and said decisively and straightforwardly, "I don't need your money, and I don't need you to speak on my behalf to stay."

In the past, to gain their approval, she learned etiquette and made amulets for them herself, treating them as her real family and doing her best to be good to them, but there was never a genuine heart in return.

Even when she almost died for Isolde Garrison, she didn't get so much as a glance from them.

This kind of family she would no longer yearn for.

Timothy Garrison felt a little annoyed seeing her unwavering rejection, feeling that Scarlett Garrison was quite ungrateful.

Without the Garrison Family, what good days could she have?

Emma White then stepped in front of Isolde Garrison and reprimanded harshly, "Timothy, why are you saying this to her? Even if she gives up the spot and cries to stay, we won't want her in our family! She shouldn't even think about taking a single thing from us!"

Isolde Garrison then cautiously stepped forward again, as if wanting to persuade Scarlett, but with a voice only the two of them could hear, laced with a bit of smugness, "Sister, I forgot to tell you, the other day Patterson confessed to me. We're planning to get engaged in a few days. I know you've always liked Patterson, but I still hope you can bless us."

Scarlett Garrison looked at Isolde Garrison's boastful expression, and with no emotion, retorted, "Who told you I like him?"

Isolde Garrison was taken aback, clearly not expecting this reaction.

According to her script, upon hearing the person she liked confess to someone else, shouldn't Scarlett Garrison be devastated to the point of collapsing in tears?

Scarlett Garrison only looked at her as if she were a fool, "Even though you're blind, I will bless you, because if two scourges are together, they can't harm anyone else."

Perfect.

Isolde Garrison's pupils shrank at her words, almost showing a change in expression.

Scarlett Garrison ignored her, turning to look at the others in the Garrison Family, "I will repay all the upbringing expenses I owe you all. From now on, I have nothing to do with your family anymore."

The Garrison Family calculated her Fate Chart, she broke this causation, and the disasters Isolde Garrison had her block in the past would double back to Isolde Garrison in the future.

Paying back the upbringing expenses settled her debt to the Garrison Family for raising her.

Breaking all ties of nurturing and causation, even if she intervened with the Garrison Family in the future, she would not bear any debt of karma.

She gave a final look at the bracelet on Isolde Garrison's wrist, then said, "You won't be able to keep that bracelet for long. I'll have you hand it back to me personally soon enough."

After speaking, Scarlett Garrison, with no more nostalgia, walked out of the Garrison Family villa alone.

Emma White watched her back as she left, almost too angry to speak.

"Look, she's truly an ungrateful wolf! If it weren't for Isolde, I would have chased her out long ago!"

Isolde Garrison held her arm to calm her down, "Sister probably just found out she's being sent back to such a poor place and couldn't accept it immediately. Mom, don't be angry with her."

"You, you're just too kind." Emma White looked helplessly at her youngest daughter, then glanced in the direction Scarlett Garrison left, angrily scolding.

"To not die or be injured after such a collision, who knows what kind of monster is possessing her, fortunately, we took the chance to send her away, otherwise, who knows what kind of disaster she would cause our family."

"Alright, enough, everyone stop talking," their father firmly cut off the topic.

None of the four in the Garrison family knew that at the moment Scarlett Garrison stepped out of the Garrison Family garden, the blazing sun that had been overhead seemed to be obscured by clouds, and the surrounding temperature seemed to drop a couple of degrees.

In the shadows, there seemed to be whispers laughing and discussing.

"She's gone, she's finally gone."

"This home is ours now, hehe."

...

Scarlett Garrison walked all the way to the gate of the villa area, the blazing sun overhead, yet she didn't appear the least bit hot, not even a drop of sweat on her brow, as if her body naturally repelled the sweltering heat of summer.

She took out her phone from her pocket, Timothy Garrison, who was also her adoptive father, had previously given her the contact information of her biological parents, but she had not yet contacted them.

Scarlett Garrison didn't know much about her biological parents.

But living in the mountains, being non-affluent was certain, with college just ended, if her biological parents couldn't afford to support her through college, she would find a way to earn money herself.

As for the possibility of being sold off for marriage upon returning, Scarlett Garrison was not the least bit worried.

In this world, there might not exist someone who could sell her.

As Scarlett thought, she found the string of numbers and was about to press the call button when she heard a massive commotion from the nearby helipad.

Looking up, she saw a dozen black helicopters landing neatly in the distance.

Even though the villa area where the Garrison Family resided wasn't the city's top villa area, luxury cars were still common, but seeing a dozen private helicopters land was a first for Scarlett Garrison.

She assumed some local tycoon was showing off and was about to leave.

However, just as she stepped to the side, the bodyguards from the helicopters, moving like a military unit, lined up in front of her, forming two queues.

Then the doors of the helicopters opened, and drivers dressed in black suits and white gloves swiftly disembarked, standing in two columns, evidently well-trained.

At this time, the door of the central helicopter also slowly opened.

Scarlett Garrison first saw a long leg clad in a dark gray suit pant stepping out, as a man descended from the cabin, tall and elegant, his well-tailored suit emphasizing his extraordinarily handsome features, making him appear even more distinguished and sophisticated.

The man looked at her as he slowly approached, finally speaking, his voice deep and pleasant, "Scarlett Garrison?"

Scarlett Garrison noticed a slight yet familiar resemblance in the man's eyebrows and eyes, faintly guessing his identity, "I am."

The man glanced at the phone in her hand, still on the verge of dialing, tutted, reached out, and suddenly pressed the dial button for her.

In the next second, a melodious ringtone sounded from his pocket, and he took out the phone, showing the incoming call display to Scarlett Garrison, bending slightly to her height, brows slightly curved in a smile, "Nice to meet you, I'm your brother, Donovan Jennings."

Scarlett Garrison: "..."

Scarlett Garrison silently observed the exceptionally handsome "brother" in front of her, then glanced past him at the lineup of planes and the well-trained drivers and bodyguards.

After a moment, she found her voice, "I heard that my parents live in the mountains..."

The implication being, this spectacle doesn't quite look like it belongs to my family.

Donovan Jennings thought she might say something else and only replied, "The hometown is indeed in the mountains."

After a pause, he added, "But the mountain is ours."

Scarlett Garrison: "..."

So, not only were her biological parents not poor, but they also owned an entire mountain?

What kind of people can own an entire mountain?

Does the state even allow that?
