Chapter 74 A Pretty Good Match
When Steel saw Jared moving toward him, he struggled to get to his feet, but the pain was soexcruciating that he couldn’t do so. That kick from Jared was just too powerful.
“W-What are you trying to do? Let me tell you that I’m from the Crimson Dragon Gang, and our gangleader is none other than Steven Fisher!”
The man’s grim expression petrified him so greatly that he hastily mentioned the Crimson DragonGang.
However, Jared sneered, “Steven, huh? If you hadn’t said that you’re from the Crimson Dragon Gang, Imight have spared you. Alas, you don’t have that opportunity anymore.”
Right after saying that, he stomped on Steel’s legs and shattered them to the point that he could neverwalk again no matter how skillful the doctor was.
“Ahh!”
Sheer agony had Steel screaming at the top of his lungs even as he writhed on the ground.
Terror struck Delilah when she saw Jared’s ruthless methods and chilly expression. She trembledincessantly, her eyes brimming with horror.
Likewise, Brayden had also broken into a cold sweat, his knees knocking together.
Picking up the money from the ground, Jared threw Delilah a glacial look. That mere glance scared herso much that she collapsed to the ground in fright.novelbin
At the sight of her pathetic condition, Jared snorted and strode right into the bank to redeposit themoney.
When he arrived home, he saw that Hilda and Chloe were still there. As soon as Hilda spotted Jared,she frantically rushed over to him.
She was on the verge of asking him how things went when she abruptly remembered that her motherwas still there. Thus, she said nothing.
“Where did you go, Jared? Hilda has been waiting for you the entire day!” Hannah chastised when sheheard his return. “Go out for a walk with her and chat for a bit.”
“I had to handle something, Mom,” Jared explained.
“Mrs. Chance, I’ll be going out for a walk with Jared then.”
Hilda strode out while dragging Jared along. At that second, she couldn’t wait to know how he handledthe matter.
“Sure, go ahead. Go and talk for a while, and we’ll all have lunch here later.”
Hannah nodded happily.
After Jared had left with Hilda, she remarked with a delighted expression, “Mrs. Wallace, I think theyboth seem to make a pretty good match!”
“I’m of the same opinion! Haha…”
Chloe laughed as well.
“What did they do to you, Jared? Did they beat you up?” Hilda questioned urgently the instant they leftthe house.
“Nope. Anyway, you don’t have to worry about the loan anymore. It’s settled now. In the future, find adecent job and work hard. I’m going for an interview tomorrow, and I’ll recommend you there if thecompany is okay. Next time, you’ve got to be more discerning when getting yourself a boyfriend,” Jaredurged with a smile.
Hilda nodded with adoration in her gaze as she stared at Jared, but he didn’t look at her.
He merely regarded her as a sister and had no romantic feelings for her, so he didn’t want her tomisunderstand.
While they were strolling around the neighborhood, Jared’s phone suddenly rang. It was a call fromJosephine.
“Where did you and your family go, Jared? Why aren’t you all at Dragon Bay anymore? I asked thesecurity, and he said that you moved out?”
Josephine went over to Dragon Bay in search of Jared, only to discover that he no longer lived there.
“My parents weren’t quite used to living there, so we moved back. Although the area is a bit old, theyhave more neighbors here who are all acquaintances.”
In truth, Jared lied because he had no idea why his parents wanted to leave Dragon Bay.
“I see,” Josephine murmured in acknowledgment, her disappointment clear as day.
After chatting for a while longer, Jared hung up the phone.
“Was that your girlfriend, Jared?” Hilda asked softly when the man had finished talking on the phone.
Jared froze, not quite sure how he should answer that question. In all honesty, he himself didn’t knowwhether Josephine was considered his girlfriend when they had never confirmed their relationship
officially.
