The Fake Heiress Turns out to Be a True Tycoon!

Chapter 1272: Extra: Donovan Jennings 2

"Without you or the Sinclaire Family, I can still achieve what I want, it’s just a matter of exerting a bit more effort."

He paused for a moment, then added,

"You saying such things indicates that you not only misunderstand me but also misunderstand Scarlett."

Donovan Jennings said,

"Scarlett never wanted me to be her support, and what I do is simply to let her know there’s always someone behind her."

Speaking of Scarlett, his voice returned to its usual warmth, and the coldness in his eyes naturally dissipated.

Nyxelle Sinclaire felt touched upon hearing this, a hint of regret flashing in her eyes. Just as she was about to apologize, she noticed the atmosphere around them suddenly change.

Her gaze hardened, as if Nyxelle Sinclaire realized something, she almost immediately turned to the driver and urgently commanded,

"Stop the car!"

Even though they were on the highway, the driver decisively followed Nyxelle Sinclaire’s instructions and applied the brakes without hesitation.

Only at this moment did the four inside the car sense the anomaly around them.

Though the airport highway was bustling just moments ago, it now seemed inexplicably deserted. The cars that were previously in front and behind had vanished, leaving their car alone on the overpass.

The driver and Felix Clark, both members of the Mystical Sect, naturally sensed the abnormality now, revealing vigilant expressions.

Felix Clark immediately checked on Donovan Jennings in the back seat.

Not just because he was currently his superior, but also because he was his idol’s brother.

Among the four, Donovan Jennings, a normal person without spiritual or demonic power, appeared the calmest.

Nyxelle Sinclaire, as the minister of the external affairs department, quickly assessed the situation.

"We’ve been pulled into the Ghost Realm."

Everyone knows that those who can generate a Ghost Realm are at least thousand-year-old Big Ghosts, and even Nyxelle Sinclaire didn’t dare to be completely careless.

Thinking of her recent tracking task, she felt a bit regretful,

"They must be targeting me. Felix, protect Donovan Jennings, I’ll handle this."

As she spoke, she pulled out a Spirit Talisman and quickly set up a barrier around Donovan Jennings, then decisively opened the car door and got out.

Donovan Jennings noticed her action, furrowed his brows but didn’t stop her.

And just after Nyxelle Sinclaire got off the car, waves of fog began to rise on the highway.

Even the setting sun on the horizon was quickly obscured by the fog.

The whole world seemed to have switched to a different filter.

Looking at the scene outside the car, Donovan Jennings involuntarily recalled something Scarlett once said—

Dusk, the witching hour.

The time when ghosts and evils most frequently appear.

Nyxelle Sinclaire stood in front of the car, holding a strand of beads, her figure soon enveloped by the fog.

However, as the heir of the Sinclaire Family and the minister of the Bureau of Security, how could she be easily swallowed by a mere Big Ghost?

Donovan Jennings only saw a few flashes of spiritual light in the fog. The next second, the fog seemed to be punctured, accompanied by a low growl, the fog that was rushing towards the car retreated a few meters, as if with consciousness.

Nyxelle Sinclaire’s figure reappeared at the original spot, with her hands clasping a mantra. The beads that were originally in her hands now tightly bound a Big Ghost exuding black energy.

Felix Clark’s eyes lit up, just about to exclaim how powerful Minister Sinclaire was, but Donovan Jennings in the back seat suddenly furrowed his brows, lowered the car window, and urgently called out to Nyxelle Sinclaire outside,

"There’s something else in the fog! Be careful!"

Nyxelle Sinclaire paused, distracted, and was suddenly struck by a powerful force, flung away.

At the same time, a shadow rushed towards Donovan Jennings’s direction. Seeing this, Felix Clark did not wait for the opponent to approach, he immediately pulled out a black dagger and stabbed towards the shadow.

The black dagger was covered in golden runes, though it didn’t hit the shadow, it still broke through the barrier that surrounded the opponent.

Nyxelle Sinclaire, despite being injured, immediately took out another string of beads and sent them towards the shadow.

The beads glowed with spiritual light, gripping the shadow’s neck tightly from behind and dragging back, Felix Clark saw this and lunged forward with the black dagger decisively towards the shadow.

The dagger pierced through, black gas burst out, and the shadow let out a mournful cry.

Felix Clark and Nyxelle Sinclaire breathed a sigh of relief, at least they had handled one.

Thinking this, a cry of astonishment came from inside the car, it was from the driver.

The originally stationary car suddenly started moving, despite the driver repeatedly pressing the brakes, the car still uncontrollably pulled Donovan Jennings and the driver quickly backward.

As the car was about to be swallowed by the fog, Nyxelle Sinclaire didn’t bother to control the Big Ghost here, a Hastening Talisman stuck on her body, and she quickly chased towards the car.

But just as she touched the car, she was once again bounced off by a powerful force.

Meanwhile, from the place where the car tail was dragged into the fog, there was a creaking sound, as if a giant mouth was devouring the car.

Seeing this, Donovan Jennings made a swift decision, signaling the driver,

"Jump out!"

He said this and pulled out the Jade Talisman on his chest, slapping it on the car body.

A surge of spiritual power spread out, momentarily allowing the uncontrollable car to pause.

Taking advantage of the moment, Donovan Jennings and the driver opened the car door and jumped out of the car just before they were completely swallowed by the fog.

After jumping out, Donovan Jennings quickly ran towards Nyxelle Sinclaire, and behind him, the fog advanced as if provoked, closing in on him continuously.

Nyxelle Sinclaire couldn’t care about her injuries, her hands quickly clasped a mantra, then the beads that bound the shadow and another Big Ghost scattered.

The glowing beads flew up and formed a circle in the air, rapidly encompassing the four within.

As the bead circle passed, the fog gradually receded.

It was at this moment that the figures in the fog finally revealed themselves bit by bit.

Big Ghost, shadow, and... a Demon.

The Evil Demon looked somewhat eerie, similar to the Evil Demons transformed by corruption back then, presumably a fugitive from that time, only unexpectedly appearing here now and even colluding with the Big Ghost hunted by the Bureau of Security.

Even Nyxelle Sinclaire, at this moment, couldn’t help showing a solemn expression.

Despite being a thousand-year-old Big Ghost, she was confident in her ability to deal with it.

But these three before her, each one’s strength rivaled the Big Ghost, let alone now they were in the Ghost Realm controlled by the opponent.

In such a situation, she and Felix Clark alone couldn’t handle it.

Nyxelle Sinclaire couldn’t help but look at Donovan Jennings beside her, seeing the same seriousness in his brow, thinking he was worried, she immediately promised,

"Don’t worry, even if I have to risk my life, I will ensure your safe escape."

After all, they came for her, she couldn’t let him be implicated.

Just hope Donovan Jennings will call for reinforcements when he’s out...

Donovan Jennings heard this, his gaze towards her grew more complex, and just as she spoke, the three outside the bead circle moved simultaneously.

Wrapped in black energy, in no time a bead was broken.

The ghost energy quickly drilled in along with the demon energy in the fog, seeing they were about to completely engulf Nyxelle Sinclaire and the others, Donovan Jennings instinctively pulled her behind him, raising his hand to block.

"Donovan Jennings!"

"Mr. Jennings!"

All three cried out in unison, only to see the fog, upon touching Donovan Jennings, the red string on his wrist glowed with white demon light.

One beam,

Two beams,

Three beams!

Three beams of demon light simultaneously lit up from his wrist.

The next second, a powerful demonic power spread from the demon light, quickly filling the entire Ghost Realm.
