These are newly deceased child ghosts, their soul powers are extremely weak, any random foul air you throw out could scatter their souls!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Greta’s intended escape action abruptly froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett felt an inexplicable ache in her heart; she was certainly deceiving him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These child ghosts’ soul power was intentionally deepened, otherwise, how could they approach him so easily?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She used them to trap him, simply wanting to create an opportunity to communicate with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Scarlett about to step forward, Olivia Xalvadora suddenly advanced, spreading her arms directly to block in front of Greta.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small figure, full of stubbornness and plea in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t hurt Uncle!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle is a good ghost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He eats mice, not humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett paused underfoot, looking at the little girl in front of her, faintly seeing a few tragic entanglements from her appearance, vaguely understanding why she was willing to join Greta.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression softened slightly, and Scarlett merely said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I won’t hurt him, I just want to talk to him about something.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if worried she might think she was lying, Scarlett raised a hand, directly recalled several little papermen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from Liora Gold and Araminta Gold, only two little papermen continued hugging Greta’s leg without letting go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then turned her eyes back to the Undying Bone in front of her,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You can understand what I’m saying, I’m not here to kill you… Greta.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She called the name she heard from the little boy’s family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since she learned what he had done from his recent tracks, he was not some Undying Bone transformation to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Greta.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know you still retain human consciousness, if you agree, I can let you live like a normal person.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused for a moment, then said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just like those people you saw on the street earlier.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, upon hearing her last sentence, Greta’s previously emotionless eyes finally moved, looking at her, repeating,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Live like them…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes,” Scarlett said, “Most people in our country now are just like what you saw.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This land guarded by our ancestors with blood has turned into a peaceful and beautiful place today, but they have never personally felt it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If possible, she hoped he could live in the current flourishing world like everyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he no longer remembered who he once was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Greta clearly already wavered, Scarlett’s gaze suddenly fell again on the little girl beside him, then continued,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not just you, but also this child beside you, if you continue to flee like before, she couldn’t stay with you, because she needs to attend school, the country’s nine-year compulsory education is every child’s right, but she couldn’t attend school if she followed you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“School!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Greta didn’t understand what this was, but instinctively felt it was something very important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to live like a normal person and let Olivia Xalvadora attend school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If listening to her can achieve these two things, then…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I agree.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Greta said each word with a stiff but earnest voice, making Scarlett’s eyes suddenly curve into a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel Chalmers had been watching from the side, and only spoke at this point, asking her,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you plan to do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About how she plans to violate the Security Bureau’s operational rules, whether she needs his cooperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett looked at him, then said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“First, I need to report to the Security Bureau that the Undying Bone has escaped.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel Chalmers didn’t show much surprise, but the two little papermen hugging Greta’s head tilted their heads, appearing not to understand Scarlett’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Undying Bone escaped…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, who is the head they are hugging now???\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett knew that Samuel Chalmers understood her meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They created such a big scene today, although the parade and the set-up were funded by Samuel himself, getting the official cooperation to clear the path went through special procedures from the Security Bureau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Security Bureau knows today’s parade was meant to lure out the Undying Bone, so Scarlett naturally had to placate that side a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, what she plans to do next shouldn’t be interfered with by the Security Bureau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett then explained to Greta,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because of your special identity, even if I’m willing to believe you won’t spread corpse poison to harm people, the Mystical Sect and Security Bureau’s personnel may not necessarily believe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To make them believe, to allow you to live like ordinary people, you must bear a restriction.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So my idea is to establish a Ghost Contract for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In simple terms, it’s like putting another layer of shackles on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This layer of shackles may sound unfair to him, but which living person isn’t bound by rules?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like laws, which are themselves like shackles imposed on people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But such shackles are necessary to form behavioral norms and create caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ghost Contract was the most suitable method Scarlett thought of, though she wasn’t sure if it would be effective on the Undying Bone, it might require targeted refinement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before the contract succeeds, this matter must be kept secret from the Security Bureau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because she wasn’t sure if the Security Bureau would give her time for trial and error.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the best approach is… to act first and report later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel Chalmers wasn’t surprised by her wanting to establish a contract with the Undying Bone, but…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you going to establish the contract with it yourself?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he remembered correctly, she already had contracts with two little ghosts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel wasn’t questioning her capability in contracting multiple entities, but the reality is, each contract inevitably takes away some of her spiritual power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The so-called contract is actually a result of mutual restraint, the stronger the contracted entity, the more spiritual power is required to suppress or command the entity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t want her to bear everything alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since her purpose for contracting the Undying Bone wasn’t to command it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant that it wouldn’t become her support but would bring her depletion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel wanted to persuade her, but heard Scarlett say,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I didn’t say I’d establish the contract myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t collecting them like some obsessive; seeing one she had to contract one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The contracts with Sophie Harper and the little infant ghost were forced, not to mention Braxton Weaver, who kept clamoring for her to raise demon beasts around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the start, her aim was only to add a contract to Greta, as for who the contract entity would be, it didn’t necessarily have to be her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than herself, Scarlett had long had a more suitable candidate in her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just about to explain, her phone rang in the bag, Scarlett picked it up and looked, immediately waved at Samuel,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The most suitable contract entity has arrived.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said, answering the phone, asking the person on the other end,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where are you? Why aren’t you here yet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only heard Stella Gibson’s voice somewhat noisy and chaotic on the other end of the line,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Scarlett! There are so many people here! I’m stuck on the road! Give me ten minutes!… Oh no, eight minutes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said, not forgetting to remind her,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You must, must remember to leave the Undying Bone for my contract!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stella Gibson’s prospect of honoring her ancestors depended on this encounter!\u003C\u002Fp>",1328,"2026-06-10T07:18:39.754Z",1,"novelbin.me","727fd6f29defb632fabb225413b0c37452cf6fc45fb345b230f50b64db575d77","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-683","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-682",1286,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-cover.jpg"]
