A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 770

Chapter 770 Regret

Although Tommy was not very powerful, he, as Jared’s subordinate, would never ditch the latter and escape first.

He was going to risk his life even if the odds were against him.

“Mr. Chance, being able to work under you for so long is already the best thing that can happen to me. If there’s an afterlife, I’m willing to continue being your subordinate,” Phoenix too said with determination.

After finishing their sentences, both of them exchanged glances and prepared themselves mentally for what was about to come. Be it only a few seconds of delay, they were determined to buy Jared some time to escape.

“Nonsense…” Jared frowned slightly. “Just leave first. I already have a plan. Your presence here will only make things more difficult for me.”

He rarely got angry at Tommy and Phoenix. However, this time, his tone of voice was unusually stern.

Seeing Jared’s reaction, both of them fell silent, unsure of what to do.

“I’m not leaving.” Right then, Lyanna, who was behind Jared, said remorsefully, “If I didn’t stop you from killing Curtis, this wouldn’t have happened. Since this is all my fault, I’ll never leave.”

Lyanna was feeling extremely guilty. If I didn’t stop Jared, Curtis wouldn’t have survived. He wouldn’t even have the chance to come here with Hayden.

She felt extremely guilty for how things turned out at that moment. In fact, she would not be able to forgive herself if anything happened to Jared.

“Mr. Chance, we’re not leaving either. At most, I’ll give in my all with this old body of mine,” Samuel chimed in, looking resolute.

Looking at all the people who were unwilling to leave, Jared smiled helplessly. Yet, he felt slightly moved by their actions.

Jared had put in all his strength in that strike. After all, Hayden was a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Hence, even if Jared had Dragonslayer Sword in his hands, he did not dare to let his guard down.

Moreover, he had not recovered his strength after that fight with Curtis. Now that he was faced with Hayden, he had no choice but to go all out.

Meanwhile, Hayden frowned slightly. Jared’s so young, yet he has such incredible powers. At that thought, he lost some of his confidence. Immediately, he threw out a punch that caused an invisible ripple in the air, and a loud sound could be heard.

What everyone saw next was Jared bringing down his sword on the ripples, causing him to be hurled backward. The incredible force made Jared’s body go numb. Even his hand that was holding Dragonslayer Sword could not stop trembling.

The crowd was stunned by the scene. At that moment, everyone could tell that Jared was not a match for Hayden.

At the same time, Hayden took two steps backward and rubbed his fist. With a fiery gaze, he said, “As expected from a magic sword. Once I kill you, that sword’s going to be mine.”
