A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 559

Chapter 559 Starstruck

Tessa returned the smile, her worries melting away immediately. Being well aware of Jared’s abilities, she knew better than to worry about him being bullied by a teenager.

“Mr. Chance!”

The sponsors standing behind Tessa started forward to greet Jared. Every socialite in Horington worth their salt knew who Jared was.

Jared merely nodded his head in response.

“Let’s go inside,” Tessa suggested, not up for having a conversation over the screaming of her fans.

“It’s rather chaotic here.”

Jared nodded before turning around to address Ingrid. “It’s fine now. Let us go in!”

“And who is this?” Tessa asked as she turned to face Ingrid.

“This is my cousin, Ingrid,” introduced Jared.

“Your cousin, huh?” Tessa mused while she beamed at Ingrid. “Come, the concert is about to start!”

Without giving her the opportunity to voice her assent, Tessa pulled Ingrid by the arm toward the entrance.

As it turned out, Ingrid was unable to speak as she was starstruck at being so close to her idol. Her jaw hung open in shock as she allowed herself to be dragged along.

At the touch of Tessa’s skin on hers, Ingrid’s pulse rose to such a degree that she felt her heart about to pop out of her chest.

Bulging with envy, every eye in the crowd followed her with admiration.

None were more envious than the two girls who came with Ingrid. The girls were beginning to feel remorseful for how they had treated her earlier.

In his rage, Jean landed another ferocious slap on his son’s cheek.

“You little piece of sh*t!” Jean howled. “The Yateses are going to collapse before you can take over! You’re in for the beating of your life once we reach home.”

…

Jared and his party were led by the ushers to the first row. They were the most exclusive seats in the stadium which money could not buy. When the concert began, Jared closed his eyes to avoid having to look at Tessa who was performing enthusiastically on stage as he realized that Tessa had been glancing suggestively at him more often than necessary.

Jared was well aware that Josephine was sitting next to him, so he did not trust himself if his imagination were to run wild. As a result, he opted to close his eyes altogether.

“Tessa is amazing!” gasped Ingrid between screams and cheers. “She’s so pretty!”

Josephine cleared her throat. “Let me ask you something, Ingrid.”

“What is it, Josephine?” Ingrid turned to look at her.
