Chapter 37,A Man Like None Other

“Dad, that b*stard—” “Shut up!” Before Leyton could finish, Yoel shot him a fearsome re, frightening

him into silence. “Mr. Scott, I know Jared very well because we were together in university. He doesn’t

have any sort of background or support. His dad used to be a government servant but became a street

cleaner after he was sacked. So, don’t let him frighten you,” Sandy exined while straightening her

clothes. “You know sh*t!”

Yoel shot her a cold nce. “You stupid b*tch! If not for you, Leyton wouldn’t be in this condition. You’re

nothing but a jinx!” Yoel stormed off the moment he finished. In truth, he had objected to their wedding

as he felt that Sandy’s family wasn’t up to his standards. Unfortunately, Sandy somehow managed to

bewitch Leyton to the extent of getting him to marry her. Sandy’s face purpled in anger after being

scolded by Yoel.

Nheless, she didn’t dare say a word of protest. This was the price she had to pay for marrying into

a rich family. “Damn that Jared! I’ll never forgive him!” Sandy hissed through her clenched teeth after

Yoel was gone. She didn’t dare offend Yoel or Leyton. Hence, her only option was to vent her

frustrations on Jared. Back at Walter’s vi, he, Tommy, and Jared were drinking happily together. They

had enjoyed each other’spany throughout the entire lunch.

Everyone present was envious of Jared for being able to share the table with such illustrious men

despite his young age. “Mr. Chance, today’s meal is just a casual one. But tomorrow, I n to hold a

feast at mor Hotel, where I’ll be inviting distinguished guests from both the political and business

establishments of Horington. During the dinner, I’ll sing your praises!” Walter dered proudly. Walter’s

intention was clear.

He wanted to open doors for Jared in the city. After the banquet, no one in Horington would ever dare

mess with Jared again. Despite how generous the invitation was, Jared intended to reject it. He wanted

to keep a low profile and focus on his training instead. After all, his aim was to wait for the fifteenth of

July. Before he could respond, Tommy preempted him, “In that case, I would like to thank you, Mr.

Grange, on behalf of Mr. Chance.

Your rmendation will be of significant assistance to Mr. Chance’s affairs in Horington.” Since

Tommy had taken the liberty of epting the offer for him, Jared didn’t say another word. Instead, he

nodded slightly. “You tter me, Mr. Grange.” After chatting a while longer, Jared and Tommy finally left.

“My Lord, please forgive me for epting the invitation on your behalf. Although the Temr Regiment

is expanding rapidly, we’ve hit a teau outside of Horington.

Moreover, many other factions are eyeing our turf. Therefore, we’re left with no choice but to strengthen

ourwork further,” Tommy exined his actions softly in the car. Jared was caught by surprise.

“Aren’t you the absolute authority in Horington? Is there someone out there trying to challenge you?”

Jared didn’t understand why Tommy felt threatened. Based on his understanding, no one other than the

political elite dared to touch him. Tommy replied in an embarrassed tone, “My Lord, those are just the

assumptions of ordinary folk. Other than us, there are other factions in Horington, such as the Crimson

Dragon Gang and the Moon Sect. This doesn’t even include the lesser factions around. The Crimson

Dragon Gang and the Temr Regiment are mortal enemies.

Every year, both sides will suffer casualties from their struggle against each other. However, their gang

leader, Steven Fisher, managed to learn the Imprable Skill from somewhere. Hence, I’m afraid I’m

no longer his match.” Staring at Tommy, Jared could see that times had been tough for him over the

last few years. Despite how morous he looked in the eyes of others, it was nothing but appearances.

In truth, people like him faced danger every single day of their lives.

“If anyone causes you trouble, just let me know,” Jared stated. Given that the Temr Regiment was

subordinate to him, there was no way he would ignore their troubles. Tommy was delighted. “Based on

what you just said, I’m no longer afraid of anything. With you at the forefront, no one will dare stand in

your way, let alone someone like Steven.”

Having seen how Jared annihted the nine vengeful dragons, Tommy was so impressed that he

utterly worshipped Jared. Surprised at how adept Tommy was at ttery, Jared broke into a smile.
