The Real Daughter Came Back to Chill and Kill

Percy's temper flared for no reason after hearing that. "Who the hell told you she doesn't play games?"

Scarlett was a gaming powerhouse, and he had never seen anyone play better than her. As it turned out, all that time she was stuck at the Quinn residence, they kept slapping her with the "non-gamer" label.

So, they gave her crappy phones that could barely run anything, and yet still made her grind ranks on Jonah's account behind the scenes. Good grief, what kind of messed-up crap had Scarlett been through?

Suddenly, everything clicked for her, too. It was no wonder the Quinn family kept gifting her phones ever so often. But they were phones that, conveniently, couldn't run games.

It wasn't just to secretly install trackers on them but also to stop her from gaming. What the hell were they so scared of? Were they scared she'd outshine Jonah by climbing the ranks? That was absolutely ridiculous.

The truth was, she had never even cared about stuff like that. She didn't even particularly like gaming.

It was only when Jonah lost a match and was feeling down that she'd quietly dive into Pride of Kings, training for a few nights straight until her phone was practically overheating. Then, the next time Jonah lost again, she'd casually pick up his phone and carry him back to victory.

Back then, Jonah was still stuck at the Celestial rank.

She was the one who pushed him all the way up from Supreme Mythic to Divine Mythic, Invincible Mythic, Paragon Mythic, and finally to Legend Mythic, which meant having one hundred stars in the mythic rank.

Every time she saw Jonah light up with happiness after ranking up, she couldn't help but smile along, putting even more effort into studying the game. And now, looking back, all that effort just felt so laughably meaningless.

Lily quickly jumped in to explain, "No, no, that's not what I meant! I just meant that Scarlett told me herself she doesn't like playing games."

As she spoke, she blinked her watery eyes pitifully, like she was the picture of innocence. Percy rolled his eyes at her reply. He hated crybaby types who teared up at the drop of a hat.

Girls like Scarlett-fierce, sharp, fearless, those were the ones one couldn't help but admire.

Lily once again held out the phone. "Scarlett, please take it. We really want you to have it."

Scarlett stepped aside without a word, her attitude crystal clear. Percy

immediately moved to block the space between them, a sly smile playing on his lips.

"Well, isn't this interesting? Wasn't Scarlett just the maid you guys fired from the Quinn family?

"This is the first time I've seen a sugar daddy chase after a maid to give her gifts. What's the deal? Do you have some secret you're hiding?

"Or wait... don't tell me that Scarlett's actually part of the Quinn family? And because she grew up in the countryside, you couldn't bring yourselves to admit it, so you slapped a 'maid' label on her?"

Lily's face turned ghostly pale. "No, that's not it! I just... I just worry about her living

out here all on her own."

Percy flashed a sharp grin. "Ha! I thought so! No way, right?

"I mean, come on. You guys are the richest family in Yendale. Even for you,

pulling something that shameless would be a new low! Right?"

Then, Scarlett grabbed Percy by the back of his collar and yanked him away.

She looked coldly at Lily and said, "Don't come looking for me again. Unless you want me spilling all your precious Quinn family secrets."

Without waiting for a response, she dragged Percy toward the car. Percy deliberately shouted, "Secrets? What secrets? Did I hit the nail on the head?"

Lily stood frozen, fists clenched so tight around the phone box that her nails ripped right through the packaging. She gritted her teeth, her voice a low, vicious hiss. "Scarlett, you damn bitch."

She then stormed off.

On the way back, she spotted a trash can and hurled the phone into it without hesitation. When she returned to Jonah's side, she kept her voice low as she reported, 4 gave the phone to Scarlett. It's just that she said the phone's specs were a little too low."

Jonah's expression darkened instantly. "She's lucky we even bothered! She should buy her own if she's so picky! Who does she think she is, turning her nose up at it?"

Honestly, though, hearing that Scarlett had accepted the phone did give him some relief. At least now they could keep tabs on her.

And the phone's specs were garbage? That was even better. That way, she wouldn't be able to play

Pride of Kings on that thing. The net.
