A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4578

“You've been to the prison? What were you doing there?” Donovan knew that Jared was an outsider, unconnected to Beast City, and he couldn't understand why he would go to that prison.

“My friend's brother is in that prison, so I went to visit him,” Jared explained.

“That prison...”

Donovan had just begun to speak when he suddenly stopped. He glanced around before saying, “This isn't the place for a chat. Let's head to a restaurant. We can talk over a meal!”

Jared nodded and said, “All right!”

Jared knew that the store might have been under surveillance, or perhaps the shop assistant was associated with city lord mansion. In this place, Donovan didn't particularly have any freedom.

Jared followed Donovan out of the room, both of their faces beaming with smiles.

Since they had chosen to collaborate, and both parties stood to benefit, naturally, everyone was overjoyed.

“Mia, wait for me at the inn. I have some tasks to handle, and I'll also see if I can manage to rescue your brother!” Jared said to Mia.

Upon hearing that Jared was devising a plan to save her older brother, Mia was instantly filled with excitement.

“All right. I'll wait for you at the inn!” Mia gave a nod.

After she left, Donovan watched her retreating figure, then gave a slight smile. He said, “Mr. Chance, you're quite the lucky one. From what I can observe, this lady appears to be an untouched maiden!”

“Stop teasing, Mr. Reese. Let's get going!”

Jared was momentarily speechless. What on earth did Donovan think of him as?

Donovan led Jared to a restaurant, which was incredibly lavish, frequented by the wealthy and influential.

“Mr. Reese...”

As soon as he stepped into the restaurant, an enthusiastic waiter immediately began to attend to Donovan.

“It seems that living in Beast City can be quite enjoyable if you have money.”

Jared glanced around the booth.

“Of course, but after many years of isolation, Beast City has become resource-poor. That's why we risk venturing into the outside world,” Donovan responded.

“Do you have any idea why your city's lord is buying up all these celestial crystals?” Jared asked.

“I'm not sure. Our job is simply to acquire the items. As for what the city lord intends to do with the celestial crystals, we have no idea. The celestial crystals must be used for cultivation. I've heard that our city lord has already reached the Immortal Realm!” Donovan exclaimed.

“Immortal Realm?” Jared was slightly taken aback. If Beast City's ruler was truly an expert in the Immortal Realm, his current situation in Beast City was incredibly perilous.

“I've only heard rumors, you know. Our city lord isn't one for public appearances. Generally, the affairs of Beast City are handled by the Three Beast Generals under the city lord's command. Elder Roshan is indeed one of the foreign officials under the beast general. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to obtain that navigation device.”

At this point, Donovan had nothing left to hide from Jared.
