Chapter 520 Let Me Have A Look
“General Jackson, to be honest with you, I plan to go to the southwest to meet Crescent Sect. If it were not for Franco’s case, I would have been there already!” Jared confessed.
Theodore’s heart filled with delight as he heard that. “That’s great. After I go back, I will arrange for my men to come and find you in Jazona before they head to the southwest. I would be more relieved if you could accompany them!”
“Okay!” Jared nodded. He figured he would go there no matter what. Therefore, he did not mind doing Theodore a favor.
After Theodore and his men left, Tommy complained of displeasure, “Mr. Chance, you were being too kind. You should teach him a lesson!”
“It’s okay. You all can proceed with the training!” Jared smiled faintly.
After Tommy and Phoenix left, Josephine and Lizbeth came down from upstairs.
“Jared, are these men here to capture you?” Josephine stared at Jared as she asked with concern.
Jared shook his head and smiled. “No. Don’t worry!”
“Jared, I was the one who killed Franco. If the Department of Justice wants to arrest you, I will explain to them. I won’t let you take the blame for me!”
Lizbeth sounded determined and persistent.
“All right. Stop overthinking. I’ve told you they didn’t come here to arrest me. Not to mention, Franco deserved to die!”
Jared smiled, then he continued, “By the way, where is the stuff you guys bought? Let me have a look…”
“Why would you be interested in them? Lizbeth bought some laced bras. Do you want to see them? It won’t matter since you’ve seen them before!”
Josephine looked at Jared teasingly.
“Josephine, what are you talking about?” Lizbeth’s face flushed red instantly.
Jared let out a cough and shook his head. “No, thank you. I am going to train Tommy and the rest…”
Jared left the scene immediately. I have no idea what these women are thinking in their heads.
After knowing the Coopers would not come after them for the time being, Jared brought Josephine and Lizbeth back to Horington. Tommy and Phoenix followed them too, as they still needed to undergo training.
After all, Horington was Jared’s hometown. He figured he should not stay in Summerbank for too long. Plus, Josephine could accompany William, while Lizbeth had the chance to accompany Walter too.
During his stay at Horington, Herb Palace would send their herbs to him whenever new stock came in.
Jayden had also informed Jared of good news. The mine had been excavated for a dozen feet, and they had found some stones that Jared needed. However, there were only very few of them. Once they collected enough of them, Jayden would send them to Jared.
Meanwhile, Tommy and Phoenix improved tremendously under Jared’s guidance. Phoenix’s improvement in her strength, coupled with the effect of the pills, would most probably make her the strongest person in the entire Jazona.
“Mr. Chance, where are you?”
On this day, Jared was relaxing while listening to music at Dragon Bay when Tristan’s call came in.
“I am back to Horington!” Jared replied.
“The men of the Department of Justice are here. They say they are here to go to the southwest with you,” Tristan reported.
“That’s right. Bring them here to Horington then. We will depart together!” Jared ended the call upon saying that.
Before long, Tristan brought a group of a dozen men to Dragon Bay in Horington. They parked their cars in front of Jared’s mansion.
At that moment, Jared was lying on his armchair, enjoying his leisure time.
“Mr. Chance, Captain Walsh from the Department of Justice of Jadeborough is here. He came here on General Jackson’s order!”
Tristan walked toward Jared and bowed humbly.
Ever since Jared killed Wolf and Franco, Tristan became even more respectful toward Jared.
Jared nodded slightly as he sat upright. Just then, a short-haired man in his thirties appeared. He scanned Jared with a stern look, then said to Jared, “I came on General’s order, and I am here to fetch you to the southwest. We are running out of time. Let’s depart now!”
