Chapter 508: Chapter 508: Modern Mystical Sect Girl, Even Catching Ghosts Must Be Beautiful

With the protagonist’s arrival, the party officially began.

Various colorful ribbons fluttered, and staff dressed in costume bore gigantic balloons and flowers while dancing.

Considering that not only young people were attending, Donovan Jennings arranged the main venue on the large lawn of the amusement park.

A glass house emerged from the ground, filled inside and out with exquisite food and flowers, and one side was fashioned into a whole giant flower wall. In front of the flower wall were birthday gifts sent by various families.

Alicia Sharp specifically showed Scarlett Jennings the gift she brought,

“I designed this for you personally. I looked at your academy’s modified Taoist robe before. Although it’s alright, it’s not quite suitable for us girls.”

As she spoke, she opened her gift box, revealing a full set of styled modified Taoist robes. Though called a robe, it barely carried some Taoist elements, the overall style exuded a romantic girlish flair.

It featured a moon-white open-collared top, complemented by a pleated short skirt in light blue adorned with white, matching short boots, and elements with a bit of comic design feel.

Scarlett Jennings gave it a glance and her expression became indescribable.

Alicia Sharp said, “As a modern genius mystical sect girl, even when hunting ghosts, one should look pretty.”

If time weren’t too tight, Alicia Sharp would’ve liked to design twelve sets, so Scarlett Jennings could have a different outfit every time she hunted ghosts.

This inspiration came from Scarlett Jennings’ little witch costume she wore at Alicia’s birthday party last time.

Indeed, her aim was to become Scarlett’s “wise sister”~

“See, I also prepared a set of nail art for you. I had someone specially design this, with the Eight Diagram adorned with diamonds and stars. How pretty that is, and it’s a press-on nail, you just stick it on and you’re done, no hassle.

And this handbag, this is remarkable…”

Alicia Sharp passionately promoted her birthday gifts, and Scarlett Jennings nearly lost composure at the sight of the nail art set.

Imagining having to apply nail art before going out to work…

She dared not imagine, not at all.

Just as she was about to say something, Alicia Sharp opened her handbag, capturing her attention.

Compared to the flashy dresses and nail art, this handbag was surprisingly understated, revealing a vintage style, a substantial quality, exuding calmness and grandeur.

Opening it revealed even more surprises inside.

Though seemingly compact, the handbag unfolded like a makeup case, distributed with compartments large and small, designed entirely according to the size of her talisman paper and some portable items.

Scarlett Jennings was quickly captivated.

This handbag was nice.

Over there, Lucas Jennings was eagerly waiting to present his gift to his sister. The house was meticulously selected and arranged by him, waiting to see his sister’s moved expression upon receiving it.

However, after waiting for half a day, Alicia Sharp kept talking, and Lucas Jennings was growing disdainful, unable to resist interrupting,

“Alicia, the gift you gave doesn’t suit my sister at all. How could my sister wear such clothes to hunt ghosts? Her classmates would laugh at her.”

Lucas, as always, spoke recklessly, instantly angering Alicia, who turned to reprimand him sternly, but Scarlett Jennings suddenly seriously said,

“I like this gift, thank you.”

Especially the handbag.

Yes, mainly the handbag.

Upon hearing Scarlett Jennings’ affirmation, Alicia Sharp instantly became proud, snorting at Lucas Jennings.

She said he didn’t understand, but as a girl herself, of course, she knew what girls liked!

Lucas ignored Alicia Sharp’s “provocation”; he was dumbfounded!

Wasn’t it his sister liked this style?

He couldn’t tell,

completely couldn’t tell.

After the lively gift-giving to Scarlett Jennings, Alicia Sharp invited a bunch of girlfriends to take selfies with Scarlett Jennings.

No girl can refuse beautiful selfies, especially when the venue is so dreamy, and they’re all dressed so prettily.

Scarlett Jennings had never experienced joyfully taking selfies with a group of girlfriends before, feeling awkward initially, but soon she blended into the girls’ atmosphere.

Luca Jennings gazed distantly at Scarlett Jennings by the flower wall, with a very complex inner feeling.

Only at times like these did she truly resemble what an ordinary eighteen-year-old girl should be.

If Luca Jennings had to choose, he’d prefer Scarlett Jennings weren’t so outstanding, because if she wasn’t outstanding, she wouldn’t have to bear too much responsibility and burden.

He wished she could be a simple and happy young girl.

Just like her mother once hoped for her…

However, the current her was also great.

Retracting his gaze, Luca Jennings glanced at Donovan Jennings beside him, his usually solemn expression softened a bit, and he rarely praised,

“Scarlett’s birthday party is organized nicely.”

Donovan Jennings smiled at Luca Jennings,

“I’ve sent all the expenses for today to your email, remember to reimburse me later, father.”

Luca Jennings snorted, but didn’t take the so-called bill seriously, only acknowledging it.

After speaking, his gaze turned, and Luca Jennings suddenly noticed a photographer constantly filming nearby, cleared his throat, and added seriously to Donovan Jennings,

“Later, send me a copy of the photographer’s footage as well.”

It’s rare to see Scarlett so happy, it should be preserved.

Donovan Jennings:…

“Alright.”

…

Scarlett Jennings was taking various posed photos but didn’t notice a pair of eyes staring intently from a shadow not far away.

Watching her being surrounded, flattered, and cherished by everyone, those eyes were uncontrollably filled with envy and hatred.

Why does Scarlett Jennings have so many people who love her?

Just for a birthday party, such a grand spectacle was created, and so many people were invited, all for her alone?

Born human as well, born special, why had she alone endured so many hardships?

Ava Zimmerman, eyes red, felt jealousy surge ever more strongly.

After a long while, she shifted her gaze from Scarlett Jennings to look at the Jennings Family elsewhere.

It was clear; it was because the family was different.

Scarlett Jennings could be happy now because she had these family members who loved her, unlike her own past interactions only with Chase Jennings.

Otherwise, she truly wondered, being hated by her closest family, what Scarlett Jennings’ expression would be?

Scarlett Jennings disgusts her, and so does her family.

Soon.

Very soon she would see this family’s panic-stricken expression.

Hidden within a costume, Ava Zimmerman slowly formed a cold smile.

Scarlett Jennings, while taking photos, seemed to sense something, her expression slightly tense, and she instinctively scanned her surroundings.

Just a moment ago, she seemed to feel a trace of malice.

Though devoid of ghostly aura, it inexplicably gave her a bad premonition.

She was hesitating whether to let Sophie Harper investigate the surroundings when suddenly, shouts of fear came from the amusement park,

“Ah ah!”
