Becoming Their Guiding Spirit

# Chapter 35: Return to Columbia Due to her leg injury.

Jessica ended up staying at Sora’s house for a few days.

At first, Jessica was very nervous talking to her idol, but after a few days of getting to know each other, they became close friends. As a die-hard fan, Jessica even enjoyed the ultimate treatment of having her idol sing for her in person—a privilege not even the top fan in the fan club had.

The number one fan in the core fan group was crying his eyes out in a corner.

In short...

She was too happy to think of leaving.

”Hehehe~ Mr. Reeve, I’ve been so happy these past few days! Sora-chan is so cute! She even sang just for me.”

Jessica sat on the edge of the bed, swinging her legs, which had mostly recovered, her eyes filled with happiness.

”It’s a shame we have to go back to Columbia soon. Why did the break end so quickly~ I really want to keep living with Sora-chan.”

”Columbia might seem far from Lungmen, but it doesn’t take too long by aircraft. You can just have your family’s plane fly you to Lungmen.”

Lucas Reeve said slowly.

Jessica’s family was incredibly wealthy. At first, Lucas Reeve didn’t know much about Terra and had no concept of Jessica’s family background. Now, with a growing understanding, Lucas Reeve knew...

The young lady of Columbia’s Raythean Industries.

What did Raythean Industries represent?

The world’s largest military-industrial complex. Although its main production was military hardware, Raythean Industries was still at the forefront of other engineering equipment, chips, and other high-tech industries. A company like this could truly be described as wealthy enough to rival a nation; one company was richer than a small country.

And as the young lady of Raythean Industries...

Jessica’s status was comparable to that of a monarch’s heir.

To be honest.

Lucas Reeve himself couldn’t tell at first.

”I... I don’t really want to rely on my family. I’m out here to gain experience...”

Jessica said shyly.

Although her family was indeed incredibly powerful.

Jessica had never felt that her family was anything special.

She believed that her family was just a ’tiny bit’ richer than ordinary people.

For a moment, Lucas Reeve was at a loss for words.

To be honest, he often found he had little in common with this rich girl. Although Lucas Reeve’s family in his past life was well-off, it was still just an ordinary family.

”Jessica... have you ever seen someone gain experience by living in a multi-million dollar mansion....”

”Ah!!”

Jessica hurriedly explained.

”If Mr. Reeve doesn’t like it, I can go buy a normal little 300-square-meter house that ordinary people live in!!”

See...

This is how conversations with her could easily be cut short.

--Two days later--

Sora reluctantly bid farewell to Jessica.

”Jessica-chan... be sure to let me know the moment you come back to Lungmen. I’ll also try to find a way to visit you in Columbia...”

Meanwhile, Exusiai was buzzing around Franka.

”Miss Franka, it was a pleasure working with you this time. I hope we can work together again next time.”

Franka remained silent for a moment. Words like ”get lost” or any other form of rejection didn’t come out. After spending these few days together, Franka had somehow gotten used to Exusiai’s optimistic and talkative nature. It was a miracle.

After the three of them boarded the plane.

The engines of the Blacksteel Worldwide private jet roared to life, and it slowly ascended, heading towards the distant horizon under the watchful eyes of the others.

Their nearly week-long trip to Lungmen had come to an end.

The rewards were quite good.

Setting everything else aside.

In Franka’s view, she had at least made a lot of money. A single business trip, including her share, had earned her over a million. A huge profit!

Of course.

Franka wouldn’t be idle on her return to Columbia.

She was already planning to live at Jessica’s place and was determined to dig out the ’thing’ inside Jessica’s body!! Setting everything else aside, it saw this young lady’s naked body! This crime could not be easily forgiven!

Meanwhile, Lucas Reeve, inside the necklace, seemed unaware of the impending ’danger.’

He sneezed.

Huh?

Strange, can souls catch colds?
