A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 348

Chapter 348 A Public Display Of Affection

Josephine likewise turned her gaze to Lizbeth. After all, the latter was there to keep an eye on Jared so as to prevent him from absconding or going into hiding.

As Lizbeth sensed the scorching gaze directed her way, embarrassment showed on her face. With the cup of coffee Jared brewed in her hands, she bit her lip and declared, “I-I’m a heavy sleeper and won’t awaken even if there are any movements at night!”

The meaning of her words was plain as day—she was telling them both that they could make a run for it while she was sleeping at night.

At that, Jared abruptly chuckled. “Are you telling me that I can make a run for it during the night, Ms. Grange?”

“I… I didn’t say that!” Lizbeth shot him a glare, her eyes brimming with censure that he actually put it in such blunt terms.

“Don’t spout nonsense, Jared! Lizbeth didn’t say that!” Josephine snapped, glowering at Jared as she also knew that Lizbeth was helping them.

All of a sudden, Jared burst into laughter. “Haha… Just catch up with each other since the two of you haven’t seen each other in many years. Don’t worry about my affairs. I can’t possibly die when I haven’t taken such a beauty to wife!”

Grasping Josephine’s chin with a hand, he pecked her on the cheek without warning.

At once, Josephine’s face flushed bright red. Lizbeth is still here, yet he dared kiss me?

“You’re such a rogue, Jared!”

Tommy then glanced at Josephine and Lizbeth before pulling Jared to the side. “My Lord, if you insist on going to Summerbank, you can consider checking out the few gangs there. Perhaps there’s also a regiment of the Dragon Sect there!”

There was no communication between the thirteen regiments of the Dragon Sect, so he had no idea where the other regiments were, nor was he acquainted with their members. Nevertheless, the other regiment heads would definitely recognize the Dragon Ring on Jared’s finger. As long as there was a regiment of the Dragon Sect in Summerbank, it would be much more convenient for Jared if he needed anything.

Hearing that, Jared nodded. “Okay, I’ll go and check them out when I arrive! Go back and rest. Although your injury is not life-threatening anymore, you still need to have more rest. I’ll concoct another pill for you when I return from Summerbank so that your capabilities will go up another notch.”

Tommy’s face lit up. “Thank you, My Lord! If there’s anything, inform me anytime. I’ll rush to Summerbank with my men right away!”
