A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 1049

Chapter 1049 A Hidden Agenda

Although Lizbeth’s breathing was weak, her life was not in danger. Still, Jared had no idea how to wake her up.

He did not know what kind of poison was in her body. Earlier, when he tried to suck the toxins out by using the Focus Technique, it did not work.

“How’s Lizbeth, Jared?” asked Walter worriedly.

“Her life isn’t in danger…” consoled Jared before glancing at Tommy and instructing, “Tommy, find a ship. We’re going back immediately. The cost isn’t a problem.”

Since many of the ships had just arrived, they would not be returning so quickly. It would probably be quite expensive to get a ship to turn back.

Just when Tommy was about to look for a ship to return, Freddy strolled over with a smile.

“Are you facing a problem, Mr. Grange?” asked Freddy.

“My granddaughter is sick, so we must go back immediately. Do you have a ship that’s going back? The price is up for negotiation!” asked Walter.

As Walter had bought a lot of antiques at the auction, Freddy recognized him.

After taking a glimpse of Lizbeth, he nodded and said, “I’ll let the cruise ship turn around immediately. It’s big and fast! We mustn’t delay your grandaughter’s treatment!”

Freddy acted extremely enthusiastically and generously, even offering to turn the cruise ship around so he could send Jared and the rest back.

When Walter heard that, he said gratefully, “Thank you so much, Mr. Wood”

“This is just a small matter. Quick, get on the ship! I’ll instruct them to set sail right away.”

Freddy told Walter and the rest to board the ship. After that, he went to instruct the captain to return immediately.

The luxurious cruise ship set sail. Jared gazed at the unconscious Lizbeth solemnly.

Freddy’s lips curved into a greedy smirk.

As he did not want Walter to bring the antiques away, a vicious plan had hatched in his mind. He planned to kill Walter and everyone else on the boat before throwing their corpses into the sea. No one would ever find out.

“Don’t worry, Boss. I’ve invited the Ruthless Four. They’re all Martial Arts Grandmasters. One of them is even a Top Level Martial Arts Grandmaster, almost entering the Grandmaster Rankings,” informed the man confidently.

“Very good! When they arrive, bring them right to me!” ordered Freddy as he nodded in satisfaction.

“Understood!” The man left. Meanwhile, Freddy downed the glass of red wine in one gulp.

“How long more before we arrive, Tommy?”

Jared had been guarding Lizbeth in the room all along, constantly checking on her breathing. Although her vitals were still stable, he felt extremely anxious. He wanted to dock as quickly as possible and send her to the Medicine God Sect.

Perhaps, Axton and the rest would have a solution. Having practised alchemy for years, they definitely encountered a lot more illnesses and poisons than him.
