The Man's Decree novel Chapter 253

Chapter 253 An Unexpected Visit

“Look at you. You’re always stirring up trouble wherever you go. One day, that’s going to be the death of your father! You’re lucky that only your wrist got broken this time. If you continue causing trouble, you might wind up dead somewhere!” Helen snarled, her voice tinged with disappointment.

“Who cares? So be it! You should go. I’m going to bed.”

Frederick pointed toward the door as he spoke.

“Your father has already made it clear that you’re not to go seeking revenge on Jared. Otherwise, he’ll break your legs,” she cautioned.

Frederick’s temper flared up at once. “Go ahead! Or forget about breaking my legs and just finish me off! At least I’ll finally be free then!” he roared.

Afraid that Glen would hear his shouts, Helen hurried out of the room and closed the door tightly behind her.

After she left, Frederick clenched his teeth and hissed, “Jared Chance, I’ll make sure you get what’s coming to you…”

Over at the mansion on Dragon Bay, the person Tommy sent to purchase the herbs had just delivered them. Jared felt a little overwhelmed as he stared at the big bags filled with herbs. Well, it looks like I can forget about sleeping. It’s going to take me all night!

Fortunately, Hannah and Gary were not home. Ever since Hannah regained her sight, she was always out and about exploring Horington, eager to see everything she had missed out in the past few years.

After lugging the herbs into his bedroom, Jared locked the door and began crafting the revitalizing pills.

It took him the whole night. He used up all of the herbs and managed to produce twenty revitalizing pills. By the time he finished, it was already the crack of dawn. Exhausted, he fell asleep as soon as his head touched his pillow.

He was not yet at the stage where he did not need to eat, drink, or sleep.

Jared slept for a long time and only awoke with a start when he heard a loud noise.

“Don’t worry about that, Mom. Let them do whatever they want. We can always have someone tidy it up later,” Jared replied quickly, comforting her.

“It doesn’t look like they’ll be leaving anytime soon. I’m sure they’ll stay for a meal. Why don’t you go and reserve a table at a restaurant? Not one that’s too expensive, okay?”

As Hannah spoke, she took some money from her pocket and tried stuffing it into Jared’s hand.

However, Jared did not take it. “Put that away, Mom. I have my own money.”

“You’ve only just started working, so how much money can you have? Moreover, you can’t keep using Josephine’s money. As a man, you shouldn’t be spending a woman’s money all the time!”

With that, she pressed the money into his hand and left him standing alone.

Jared gave a wry smile as he gazed down at the wad of bills. Some of them were brand new, while some were old and crumpled. He then slipped the money into his pocket and walked out of the mansion.
