I’ll take one with you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing this was also the boss’s subordinate, Big Wave’s attitude improved significantly, quickly agreeing to the photo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he looked at the group not far from Lucas Jennings, his gaze quickly shifted from Donovan Jennings and Hannah Hearne, finally settling on Adam Jennings and Cassidy, asking,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you two also the boss’s new subordinates? Do you want a photo?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam Jennings looked at the little munchkin in front of him, hearing his words, tugged at the corners of his mouth, and corrected him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am not her subordinate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He is her brother!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood-related cousin!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Wave’s little face scrunched up slightly, sensing the Bear Demon aura from Adam Jennings and Cassidy, which was undoubtedly much weaker than the two Great Demons next to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being so weak and carrying the boss’s scent, they must be subordinates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t deny it, I know you are, come over, and let’s take a photo together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Big Wave had the body of a little munchkin, his demeanor was not weak at all, directly beckoning Adam Jennings over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas Jennings also smilingly indicated Adam Jennings shouldn’t resist, forcing Adam Jennings to take a second shift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the camera, Big Wave and Jin Gungun, feeling too short, thought themselves not majestic enough, demanded Lucas Jennings and Adam Jennings to lift them up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas Jennings naturally had no objections, directly letting Jin Gungun climb onto his shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Gungun’s eyes sparkled, happily sat on his shoulders, arms just holding Lucas Jennings’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group chose a location, cheerfully preparing to take a photo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas Jennings chose an angle with the venue stage in view, but as he turned around, he unexpectedly bumped into someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas Jennings instinctively apologized, neglecting the stabbing pain from his arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That person waved his hand and quickly left the venue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas Jennings hadn’t realized anything was wrong, but the next moment, Jin Gungun, riding on his shoulders, suddenly screamed, falling off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah Hearne inadvertently scanned the Demon bumped into by Lucas Jennings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rather than being bumped, it was like he appeared there waiting to be collided with, yet before she could examine further, her attention was drawn by Jin Gungun’s sudden scream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, as soon as Jin Gungun fell, Big Wave rushed over, caught him, and landed steadily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing the burn marks on Jin Gungun’s hands, Big Wave was instantly incensed, looking at Lucas Jennings,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you do to him?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas Jennings was dumbfounded, \"I-I didn’t do anything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no idea what just happened!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Dashiell seemed to realize something, quickly asked, \"The Talisman! Where is the Talisman Scarlett gave you?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little imp’s reaction clearly seemed like being attacked by a Demon Talisman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas Jennings obviously figured it out too, hurriedly reached into his pocket, only to find the Demon Talisman Scarlett gave him had turned gray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this, is this the Talisman’s doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dashiell timely explained, \"Scarlett’s Demon Talisman doesn’t harm people actively; it only retaliates under attack.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These words made everyone’s gaze again focus on Jin Gungun held by Big Wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you attack him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Gungun, on the verge of crying, \"I didn’t!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was merely hugging his neck, not exerting force, much less attempting to break his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disturbance was significant; Scarlett Jennings and Samuel Chalmers approached hearing it, and upon arriving, just as they were about to ask what happened, Scarlett’s gaze happened upon Lucas Jennings and abruptly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings’s pupils contracted slightly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What just happened?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had just left for a brief moment, and Lucas Jennings’s manufactured Demon Energy was now thoroughly contaminated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the entire person appeared to be enveloped in contamination!\u003C\u002Fp>",1229,"2026-06-10T07:18:48.394Z",1,"novelbin.me","aa425b8007e52d6757814b99959ca065c06ec86f4b208580121cd01d7c405a0b","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-884","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-882",1286,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-cover.jpg"]
