A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 427

Chapter 427 I Do Not Take In Students

“Quit?” Jared and Josephine looked at Lizbeth in surprise.

They were cognizant of Lizbeth’s dream to become an investigator where she could take down criminals and protect the innocent.

Consequently, they were taken aback by her decision.

“Why did you quit?” Josephine asked.

“I have to become stronger before I can fulfill my dream. Therefore, I want Jared to be my master!” Lizbeth declared with a resolute expression.

Recently, Lizbeth was traumatized by the fact that she was helpless against the overwhelming power of her enemies even though she was a member of the Department of Justice. Therefore, she decided to quit and train so that she could become stronger.

Nevertheless, her words almost caused Jared to choke on himself.

At the same time, Josephine covered her mouth as she giggled. “Lizbeth, have you gone mad? If Jared becomes your master, how are you going to address me going forward? Are you going to call me mistress?”

“Sheesh, I’m not going to do that. Besides, aren’t you embarrassed for saying that? Both of you aren’t even married.”

Lizbeth rolled her eyes at Josephine and returned her attention to Jared. “Jared, please accept me as your student and teach me martial arts!”

“I don’t take in students.” Jared shook his head.

“You have no choice. I’m going to follow you everywhere you go.”

Lizbeth grabbed his arm and looked as if she was going to leech on him.

Faced with Lizbeth’s cheeky action, Jared looked helplessly at Josephine, hoping that she would help him defuse the situation.

“No, they are definitely aware of it,” Jared replied with a smile.

Given that more than ten days had passed since Zachariah had been killed, it was impossible for Herb Palace not to know. The fact that such a huge organization would be oblivious to such news was simply inconceivable.

“If they already knew, why would they still deal with us? After all, my men were masquerading as the Jantz family when negotiating with them,” Phoenix inquired with a puzzled expression.

“I don’t have an answer for that. Perhaps, they have some other plan in mind.” Jared was equally baffled by what Herb Palace was up to. Then, he added, “Since they have sent us the herbs, we’ll just accept them. Coincidentally, I’m going to make some pills for both of you to further elevate your strength.”

“Thank you, Mr. Chance,” Phoenix and Tommy expressed their gratitude in excitement.

Tommy in particular was motivated by his arrival in Summerbank. He really wanted to increase his strength, hoping to become an Internal Energy Grandmaster one day. That way, he would no longer have any regrets.

After getting Tommy and Phoenix to stand guard outside, Jared sat down with his legs crossed and made more than ten pills from the herbs that were worth billions.
