Chapter 316: Don't Rush Me = Don't Talk to Me

Scarlett Jennings turned her head and saw Sophie Harper holding a slightly oversized little spirit baby, quickly floating towards her, wearing an expression of heartbroken grief and resentment, as if she had been abandoned by a scoundrel.

Hearing her call, Scarlett felt her temples throb several times.

Where did this mother and child duo come from?

*Were they even born in the same era?*

"Scarlett, you made a contract with me, so how can you leave us alone?"

Due to Scarlett's request, Sophie had to address her by name. It was only when she returned to the Jennings Family yesterday that she found out Scarlett had a little spirit baby besides her family and that she had been pushing it away all this while.

*Taking care of one is no different from taking care of two.*

But fortunately, she and the little spirit baby hit it off immediately, and last night, she even fed it a bit of shadow energy to help it grow.
