Chapter 91
91 Who Was in the Helicopter?
…Could it be…?
Rebecca’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Jasper’s handsome, aloof face flashed through her mind.
No way!.
Why would Scarlett get Mr. Fletcher to lower himself like that ?
She quickly looked toward the helicopter again-
But it was already turning, climbing higher into the sky.
She tried to reassure herself.
Maybe Scarlett just got lucky and happened to catch a ride in a helicopter.
But…
She suddenly pulled out her phone and sent a message to Connor:
“Connor, when did you buy a helicopter? That’s so cool! Did Scarlett forgive you or something?”
Connor replied with a single word: “What?”
Then he called her directly.
“Rebecca, what helicopter are you talking about?”
Rebecca sounded confused.
“That helicopter just now wasn’t yours? Oh–uh, never mind, I must’ve imagined things.”
She tried to cover it up.
But Connor immediately pressed her for more details.
“What the hell happened?”
His anger startled her, and she recounted what happened as carefully as she could.
Since other members of the Joyner family were present, she kept it vague.
But that only made Connor more furious.
He was already in a bad mood from being stuck in traffic.
Now, in a fit of rage, he slammed his fists against the steering wheel, making it rattle violently.
So Scarlett really did betray him!
Finished
Did she come to this medical exchange just to boost her credentials before marrying some old man?

He was going to find ou
What kind of old man could possibly catch Scarlett’s eye?
From the backseat, a Lane family delegate frowned and spoke up.
“Mr. Connor, are you unwell? Have you caught baboon fever?”
All this chest–pounding was worse than a baboon’s tantrum.
Connor snapped back to reality.
Only then did he remember–he had a critical mission today.
He took several deep breaths to steady himself.
Then he forced a smile.
“Sorry, just frustrated by traffic. I was worried about delaying your tour.”
The delegate glanced out the window toward the helicopter in the distance.
It looked familiar.
Might’ve belonged to that Damian kid.
“No matter. A longer look at the scenery does no harm.”
Connor didn’t expect the delegate to be so easygoing. He was flattered.
“Great. I’ll get us there quickly. You’ll love what Trenwyn has to offer.”
The delegate snorted.
Love this city ?
That was the biggest joke he’d heard all year.
But Connor thought the reaction meant agreement–and felt even better.
All thoughts of Scarlett vanished into thin air.
The helicopter slowly touched down on the rooftop of the convention center.
Jack sat at the controls.
Except… he wasn’t flying it.
It was the robotic cat in his lap, piloting the whole way.
Jack stared in disbelief.
Only now did he finally snap out of it.

“Jasper… did that cat become sentient?”
Jasper sat in the back with Scarlett, unbuckling his seatbelt at a leisurely pace .
“Lupgraded her with a full flight control system.”
Jack was speechless. “Jasper, seriously? You’re gonna put me out of a job.”
As the chopper settled, the robotic cat suddenly leapt into Scarlett’s lap.
Its little head rubbed against her palm, amber eyes glowing softly.
For a second-
Scarlett could practically read the words “ Praise me ! ” in its gaze.
“You’re amazing! And thank you, kitty.”
The robotic cat perched its front paws on her shoulder like it was giving her a hug.
Scarlett chuckled, gently patting its back.
Finished
“Pixel, you’re thanking the wrong cat. I spotted the Joyner family’s car and sent the order to mess with them.”
She just couldn’t stand them.
No reason needed.
“And thank you, Mr. Damian,” she added with a smile, turning to glance at Jasper.
Her clear eyes reflected his sharp, chiseled features.
“I should also thank Mr. Fletcher. That was a pretty risky move by the cat–if you hadn’t been backing us up, we’d be talking about a disaster, not a cool stunt.”
Jasper offered a rare compliment.
“You’ve learned to see beyond appearances. That’s progress.”
Scarlett fell silent.
Jack wasn’t happy.
“Hold on, Jasper. Are you implying I only see the surface?”
Jasper didn’t hold back.
“You didn’t even get that far.”
Jack stared at him like he’d grown a second head. “Sometimes I seriously wonder–if you licked your lips, would you die of your own poison?”
Scarlett hopped out of the chopper with the robotic cat still in her arms. A private elevator nearby would take them straight to the conyention floor.

She walked a few steps, then stopped as something seemed to occur to her. She turned and looked back at Jasper.
“I just had an idea for a really convincing knockoff”
Jasper paused mid–step.
“Let’s hear it.”
“Mr. Fletcher, have you ever seen Losers Save the Day ?”
Jasper frowned slightly. “What’s that?”
As soon as he said it, Jack burst into uncontrollable laughter, slapping his thigh.
“Jasper! There are still things you don’t know!”
“Haha! This is gold!”
