A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 1414

Chapter 1414 I Do Not Know You

Jace’s face turned red. “That is an unfounded ranking made by the netizens. My meager capabilities are nothing compared to you, Ms. Gunderson. Your talent is truly admirable.”

Astrid smiled faintly. “You’re flattering me. My achievements are merely the result of my hard work instead of my talent. However, there is a remarkably talented person among us.”

Surprisingly, she looked at Jared after saying that.

Jared was caught in perplexity when he sensed her gaze on him. She just completed her isolated cultivation, so how does she know about me already?

Meanwhile, Howard, standing beside Jared, grew anxious and started to experience labored breathing because Astrid was looking in their direction.

When Howard saw her approaching them, he shuddered and hastily brushed his hair with his hand.

Taking in Howard’s demeanor, Jared had the urge to laugh. Howard’s experience in dealing with women seems just as scarce as mine.

Astrid came to a halt in front of Jared and extended her fair and tender hand. Then, she chirped, “Hello, Jared. I am Astrid Gunderson.”

At that sight, Jared quickly shook hands with her. Her hand was soft, and her faint body fragrance could easily entice any men around her.

Just as he was about to retract his hand, Jared suddenly noticed a tremendous amount of energy surging from Astrid’s arm, prompting him to feel as if a pair of pincer pliers were clenching his hand.

The energy invaded his body continuously, causing his arm to go numb.

Astrid curled her lips into a faint, provocative grin.

Seeing her reaction, Jared, who was wearing a poker face, suddenly beamed at her. The next second, he mustered the Power of Dragons within him and reflected her energy to her.

The smile on her face swiftly dissipated and was replaced by an astonished expression.

“Hello, Ms. Gunderson.”

Meanwhile, Astrid’s face turned grim when she saw that man who had just rushed forward.

“Philip Sable, are you a rabid dog? Why are you constantly lashing out at everyone?” she chided that man furiously.

Jared was astounded after listening to her angry remark. She’s ruthless in rebuking others for a girl with her appearance.

Anyone would expect Philip to flip out after getting reprimanded in public.

Unexpectedly, instead of getting mad, Philip said gently to Astrid, “Astrid, I must challenge this Jared to let you see who among us is the most talented.”

“I don’t even know you. Why should I accept your challenge? Besides, this is not a place for us to fight. We’ll discuss this another time.”

Jared had no intention of dueling with Philip. Hence, he dragged Howard along and left after saying that.
