A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 1036

Chapter 1036 Obedience

At that moment, Tommy asked curiously, “Mr. Chance, since Lizbeth and you are going to Dragon Island, why aren’t you traveling together?”

“Erm…” Jared had no idea how to answer.

“I came by myself. Hence, Jared wasn’t even aware of it.” Lizbeth interrupted.

“That’s right, I wasn’t aware that she was going to Dragon Island too.” Jared nodded at once.

After sweeping his gaze around, William noticed that Josephine wasn’t anywhere to be seen. Hence, he asked, “Jared, where’s Josephine? Aren’t you going there with her?”

Briefly stunned, Jared was at a loss as to how he should explain to William. In the end, he decided to lie. “Josephine is busy, so she didn’t join us. I’m going there together with my friends.”

Jared pointed to Skylar and Karl behind him.

Coming forward with a slight smile, Skylar greeted Walter and William, “Hello, I’m Jared’s friend, Skylar Norton.”

“Hello!” Walter and William returned his greeting.

After exchanging pleasantries, they returned to the ship’s cabin. Nevertheless, Walter and William were particularly excited to have run into Lizbeth and Jared.

Subsequently, both men chatted happily with Jared in one of the rooms. As Jared had been busy recently and seldom returned to Horington, the two had missed him a lot.

“Jared, that friend of yours, Skylar, looks to be a fine young man. Does he come from a prominent family? He exudes a distinguished vibe that is rare among the youth in Horington,” William asked.

“Mmm-hmm, he is a member of the Norton family of Jadeborough. Even though he seems congenial, he isn’t someone to be trifled with. Therefore, Mr. Sullivan, Mr. Grange, it’s better if both of you keep your distance from him,” Jared advised the two.

Nodding in acknowledgment, Lizbeth began to realize the folly of her actions.

Meanwhile, inside another room nearby, Skylar was in a delightful mood.

“Hahaha, the heavens are smiling upon me! I didn’t expect to run into those who are close to Jared. At the rate this is going, he will have to submit to us obediently.”

Skylar took a gentle sip of red wine.

“Mr. Norton, from those among the group, I can see that the girl is the one whom Jared holds the dearest. As long as we capture her, he will have to obey everything we say!” Karl, Baron of the Northwest, remarked.

“That’s right. I realize it too. I’m surprised that Jared is such a player to have women swooning over him wherever he goes.”

As a jealous glint flashed in his eye, Skylar added, “Now that we have brought Jared to Dragon Island, are you confident of luring the Flame Dragon out with him?”
