She was surprised when she saw the name of the “heartthrob” male guest,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Franklin Nova?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rare last name and a very non-modern first name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Franklin Nova doesn’t come from a prestigious family, but has some renown within the Northland clan, and his family has some political background. He came on the show as an amateur with his newly engaged girlfriend.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Explained the director on the way,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We investigated him before inviting him to the show. He and his girlfriend have been together since college.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’ve always been in love; their interactions on social media appear normal. I don’t know why being on the show makes everyone seem possessed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the curse ranked sixth by “Inspiration,” the director suspected it might truly be possession after noticing the oddities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But one couple was already gone; if the remaining two also ended, the show would probably get canceled midway like “Inspiration 2.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she was eager to find Scarlett Jennings to save the show and herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it seemed that Scarlett Jennings and Samuel Chalmers’ appearance was indeed a lifesaver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The previous episode’s unhappy ending caused ratings to plummet, nearing a point of no return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With their arrival, online viewership soared, triggering several trending topics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, both of them remained calm and composed, exchanging polite nods to the warm greetings from the other two couples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their uniformly serene expressions and indifferent demeanor, netizens fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I could never imagine what a love affair would look like for the idol; now I think I understand.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The saying ‘like repels like’ means people with similar personalities are more likely to attract each other.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[… I’ve learned something.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett couldn’t see the netizens’ snark; she was observing the two couples before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Franklin Nova, who seemed to enchant two girls at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From her senses, she didn’t feel any Shadow Energy or evil aura from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But from her view, he indeed had a faint, almost invisible dark pink aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the same pink aura wrapped around his fiancée and Evelyn as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was not visible through the lens; only by seeing it firsthand could it be confirmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only difference was that Evelyn, besides the faintly dark pink aura, also had an ominous energy attached to her soul body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So among these four people, the only normal one was Evelyn’s boyfriend, Edward Wright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the situation clearly, Scarlett couldn’t help but throw a complex look, one of sympathy, toward the camera controlled by the director.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having seen her face earlier, she hadn’t noticed any looming bad luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet six guests in total, and only one remained normal; in a way, was this not another kind of talent??\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director: ???\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s with Scarlett’s look?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is she pitying me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is there no hope for me???\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Franklin Nova tensed when he met Scarlett Jennings’ scrutinizing gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having been on reality TV, he certainly recognized Scarlett Jennings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to say something, but feared revealing his insecurity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t until she calmly shifted her gaze that Franklin subtly breathed a sigh of relief, then acted enthusiastic and asked seemingly nonchalantly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I didn’t expect the show would even invite you, Scarlett. The director must have substantial influence. Hasn’t it been a long time since you’ve appeared in public?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke as if probing, seemingly wanting to know why Scarlett Jennings was on a romance reality show as a guest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be… she came for him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett replied calmly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I unintentionally interrupted the director a bit over a month ago; as compensation, I agreed to guest star in one episode.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett said, glancing at the four people in front,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t pay special attention to me; after this episode, the director should find another regular couple.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, she was just a temporary fill-in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though direct, given it was Scarlett Jennings speaking, viewers found it quite usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even just for one episode, seeing their idol was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wish more directors and producers would be troubled by her, so as a compensation, she could frequently appear in front of the camera~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Franklin Nova, seeing Scarlett without a ripple of emotion, was clearly honest in her words, secretly let out a relieved breath while feeling slightly triumphant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group moved to the living room. Franklin Nova’s girlfriend, Leah, immediately poured a glass of freshly squeezed cold juice for her fiancé.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Leah, make some hot tea for Evelyn and Scarlett; they’re girls, and cold drinks aren’t good for them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With these words, the atmosphere in the living room seemed to pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evelyn, being named, lowered her head, looking somewhat shy. But if the camera caught her face, it would reveal shyness with a hint of painful struggle in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hand on her knee clenched subconsciously. Seeing this, Edward Wright immediately held her hand and gently squeezed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leah, upon hearing her boyfriend publicly showing concern for the two female guests, seemed unfazed, and got up to really make the tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just as she was about to act, Scarlett and Samuel Chalmers simultaneously spoke,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samuel Chalmers directly took the freshly squeezed cold juice from across and poured a cup for Scarlett.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She likes cold drinks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Franklin paused, then smiled and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Chalmers, you seem very accommodating, but knowing it’s bad for her health and still indulging isn’t good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hardly had he spoken when Scarlett took the cold juice poured by Samuel and took a sip in front of everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with a calm expression,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I think it’s fine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused, looking at Franklin to add,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Also, I don’t particularly like strangers calling me by my first name on our first meeting. We’re not familiar; please address me as Miss Jennings from now on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, she took another sip of the cold juice.\u003C\u002Fp>",1145,"2026-06-10T07:18:50.097Z",1,"novelbin.me","b286c5f540bd17214f3bb64247a0e4ec9b144c9c81e6c19e591cfb273d9b534d","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-919","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-917",1286,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-cover.jpg"]
