Chapter 833 My Guarantee
Kristoff asked Jared excitedly, “Do you really have the detoxification pill? Show it to us! If it’s the real deal, we can let you have the white wolf!”
Jared answered earnestly, “I don’t have the pills now, but I guarantee I’ll give them to you once we return.”
“Are you messing with us right now?” Kenneth raged, swinging his blade toward Jared.
Renee, who stood behind Jared, witnessed Kenneth’s attack and rushed forward to block him.
Of the three ladies, Renee was the only one strong enough to help Jared in a fight against Kenneth and Kristoff.
Colin immediately leaped in front of Renee after noticing her attempt to defend Jared. Colin pleaded, “Don’t act rashly, Kenneth. Why don’t you give him a chance to explain himself?”
Meanwhile, Jared vowed, “I promise I will give you the detoxification pills once we are back. You have my word. I’m the Lord of Medicine God Sect. Why would I lie to you?”
“The Lord of Medicine God Sect?”
They were stunned, unable to believe that someone as young as Jared could assume such a prestigious position.
Kenneth was the first to express his disbelief. “Can’t you even tell a convincing lie? I know all about the Medicine God Sect. How can someone your age be the leader? I’m sure your lies only work on three-year-olds!”
“Jared wouldn’t lie to anyone! He always makes good on his promises!” Renee shot back, glaring at Kenneth for good measure.
Jared had saved Renee’s life, and she could not stand by and watch someone defame his character.
Renee’s anger spurred Colin into action. He defended Jared by saying, “Jared doesn’t look like a conman, Kenneth. Why don’t you trust him this once? Let Shadow Estate be the guarantor of this deal. If Jared fails to produce the pills after our return, I’ll get you two pills myself.”
Still, his behavior earlier had left a good impression on Jared.
Colin had a silver tongue and seemed rather carefree, but he bore no ill will.
“Thank you,” Jared conveyed his gratitude to Colin.
Colin sputtered, “There’s no need for such pleasantries, Jared. Renee sees you as an older brother, and I shall do the same.”
He snuck a glance in Renee’s direction as he said this, causing Renee to blush in embarrassment and avert her gaze.
Josephine and Lizbeth saw Renee’s expression and immediately knew that the inexperienced girl was dazed by Colin’s wooing.
Frankly, they would not know what to do if someone was trying to woo them as doggedly as Colin was doing to Renee.

Josephine's first time seeing Jared kill isn't with Leyton but with Falcon. Pay attention to your work....
You need to correct yourself,dear author. Josephine was in the City of Herbs when she was a kid, so why is the city's smell surprising to her?...
I need more chapters...
When can I get the next chapter...
