Chapter 323: Chapter 323 Odessa’s Secret Chapter 323: Chapter 323 Odessa’s Secret In the Jennings Family, besides the elderly Madam Jennings, Odessa held the highest Goodwill Value towards Azura Loomis. Prior to becoming the Second Madam of the Jennings Family, Odessa was a second-tier actress who climbed the high branch of Michael Jennings through a collaboration opportunity and then retired from acting to devote herself to being a wealthy socialite. To show she wasn’t merely a decorative piece, she took the initiative to assume the responsibilities of the household management. Although dubbed the housekeeper, her role mainly involved worrying about the daily domestic affairs and social interactions of the different branches of the family. While it involved a fair amount of managing finances, there was a dedicated housekeeper in the family, and every expenditure and income was detailed, so the amount of money Odessa actually handled was not substantial. Fortunately, her intent in doing these things wasn’t to embezzle money. She was more concerned about elevating her status within the Jennings Family, fearing being looked down upon because of her humble origins after marrying into a prestigious family. Initially, to prove her managerial capabilities, she took extra care of the niece whom Madam Jennings valued greatly. Because of this, Odessa gained a good reputation and Madam Jennings’s view of her improved. Later on, finding Azura to be obedient, she treated her like a somewhat endearing pet that the family raised. Odessa’s genuine change of heart and affection towards her niece Azura was the result of Azura accidentally obtaining for her a set of jewelry she had long desired. As the Second Madam of the Jennings Family, she could afford jewelry, but that particular set had been auctioned off to another lady with whom she didn’t get along. Azura somehow managed to persuade the lady to agree to sell the jewelry to Odessa. At that time, Azura was only fourteen years old. Later on, Odessa found that her niece always seemed especially lucky. Limited edition items that others couldn’t even get a chance to purchase, Azura would receive special buying invitations for. Whenever she took Azura to auctions and Azura made a bid, the people competing with her would always drop out due to some other reasons. Even when her husband hit a creative roadblock, a casual tune played by Azura could inspire him. Through these events, Odessa’s appreciation and fondness for her niece Azura grew stronger. Although not to the same extent as her own daughter, Azura was almost like an adopted child to her. Therefore, when the dolls made from dead people’s hair were found, Odessa’s bias was with Azura, and she felt somewhat heartbroken seeing her get rid of all her dolls. Knowing that Azura and Adam Jennings were coming home for the weekend, Odessa had someone prepare their favorite dishes bright and early. Seeing this, Ismeria Jennings felt somewhat aggrieved, “Mom, it’s the weekend, you promised you’d go to the amusement park with me!” On hearing this, Odessa just patted her daughter’s head, “Violet, be good. Today your Sister Azura and brother are coming home, Grandma wants to see them. Let’s stay at home and keep them company this weekend; next weekend, Mom will take you out.” More importantly, she had something to discuss with Azura today, so she definitely needed to stay home and wait for her return. “But...” No sooner had Ismeria begun to protest than a small tray was thrust into her hands. “Be good, take these fruits to your great-uncle; he’s also rarely at home to rest today. Keep him company, sweeten him up a bit, and then he’ll like you the best.” Ismeria pouted, somewhat unwillingly, “But great-uncle is so scary!” And dad was at home too, yet mom only asked her to deliver to great-uncle and not to dad. It was always like this, always saying that great-uncle would definitely like her the most. But it was clear that great-uncle’s favorite was Sister Scarlett. In the past, Ismeria would feel that her affection was stolen, but after getting along with Sister Scarlett, she understood that Sister Scarlett was great-uncle’s biological daughter, and it was normal for great-uncle to like Sister Scarlett more than her. Adults always prefer their own biological children. Especially when Sister Scarlett is so impressive. She can even fly. And raise beautiful little foxes. Thinking this, Ismeria Jennings came out of the kitchen and called to the pretty little one beside her. “Pretty Princess, let’s go.” Pretty Princess is the nickname Ismeria Jennings gave to the pretty little one. She thought that the little one, after being dressed up by her, looked like a princess. Today the little one was wearing a beautiful flower crown, which also belonged to Ismeria Jennings, worth twelve thousand, much cheaper than a five million crown. During Scarlett Jennings’s absence from home, the pretty little one already had its own special wardrobe and jewelry cabinet, mostly bought by Ismeria Jennings through the butler. Although the pretty little one didn’t like being treated as an ordinary pet, Ismeria Jennings gave her too much. Now, upon hearing her summons, the pretty little one reluctantly followed behind the little girl up the stairs. What Ismeria Jennings couldn’t see was that behind the pretty little one, a large and a small ghost were also following. To prevent the Jennings Family from getting contaminated with Shadow Energy, Sophie Harper deliberately sealed her own Ghost Energy and casually sealed the Ghost Energy of the little infant spirit as well. A small girl and a pet followed by a large and a small ghost made their way to the second floor. Ismeria Jennings carefully held a small tray in her hands, but she didn’t go to her uncle’s study, instead, she went to her father’s soundproof room. Starting from last week, she had become a first-grade student. As the older child, Ismeria Jennings also realized a truth— Mom’s homemade treats should be given to dad. Downstairs, Odessa was unaware that her “kind gesture” was being delivered to Azura’s biological dad. Just after instructing the housekeeper to clean up the remaining ingredients, she heard that Azura Loomis and Adam Jennings had returned. Odessa went out and saw Azura Loomis and Adam Jennings walking side by side. Azura Loomis was talking and laughing with Adam Jennings, who just quietly listened, occasionally nodding but not as close as before. Adam Jennings’s temperament had always been somewhat gloomy. He was somewhat better in front of Azura but showed no warmth in front of his biological mother, something Odessa was used to. She even thought that only Azura was willing to chat with him. “What are you talking about that’s making you so happy?” Odessa approached with a smile. Adam Jennings had a strange expression. Where did his mother see him being “happy”? He also didn’t understand why Azura, who had been quiet all the way, suddenly started chatting with him about people they could meet through the student council after getting out of the car. He didn’t understand why she suddenly started talking about these things with him since he had no interest in joining the student council. Azura Loomis’s “chat” with Adam Jennings was also done for Odessa to see. Now that she asked, Azura Loomis took the opportunity to continue the conversation and began talking about some interesting school stories with her. The two of them walked into the house side by side, completely leaving Adam Jennings, the biological son, trailing behind. It was also during this time that Odessa casually brought up to Azura Loomis that she had recently received an invitation as a special guest on a television show. The show’s main gimmick was nostalgia, inviting mostly past somewhat famous actresses like her who had long been out of the spotlight to stir up old memories and uncover what they’ve been up to after many years out of the industry. Such booking was something Odessa would not usually consider, as she was now living a life of comfort, had no thoughts of making a comeback, and certainly didn’t need the fee. However, by chance, she needed a legitimate reason to go on a business trip to the city where the shooting was taking place, and it had to be a reason that wouldn’t raise anyone’s suspicions. Because next week, Jiang Yu... was said to be going there on a business trip as well.
