A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 2662

Chapter 2662 Enraptured

“You're right. You're not bad at all,” Jared replied with a smile. “Just try to be a little gentler in your demeanor and maybe hold back from resorting to violence at the drop of a hat.”

“You...” Infuriated, Viola raised her hand, ready to strike Jared once more.

“See? You can't just go around hitting people like that. It's not very ladylike.” Jared quickly retreated, seeking refuge behind Ghaylen.

Seeing the playful banter between Jared and Viola, Ghaylen allowed an amused smile to form.

“Mr. Chance, why don't you step outside for a moment? I need to discuss something with Ms. Viola,” he said to Jared.

“Sure. I'll wait for you outside,” Jared replied and promptly left the cave.

The moment he was gone, Viola inquired, “Mr. Samoll, what was it you wanted to discuss?”

“Ms. Viola, what are your thoughts on Jared as a person?” Ghaylen asked.

Although puzzled by his question, Viola still answered truthfully, “To be honest, he doesn't strike me as the most trustworthy person, but oddly enough, I do feel a sense of security when I'm around him.”

“Ms. Viola, let me tell you this, Jared is no ordinary man. Despite being only at Manifestor Realm, he was able to single-handedly slay Bilius. Even the formidable ultimate demon beast within Octo Ruler couldn't win against him. Besides, he owns numerous precious treasures, including the legendary Divine Cauldron coveted by the alchemy world. Although I haven't unraveled his true identity yet, his courage and strength are anything but ordinary. I wouldn't be surprised if he turns out to be an esteemed heir from a powerful family!” Ghaylen praised Jared with great admiration.

Viola's face flushed red when she heard this, and she quickly shook her head, saying, “That won't do; I'm not that kind of person...”

“Ms. Viola, don't you want to reclaim Emerald Cauldron Sect from Hosen's grasp? Are you willing to let all the hard work of the previous generations of sect leaders go to waste? Your father dedicated himself to the prosperity of the sect, building its illustrious reputation. Yet now, that very reputation is being tarnished by Hosen. Will you stand idly by while the former sect leader's legacy remains unavenged?” Ghaylen purposely brought up Viola's father, knowing that if they could get Jared on their side, Emerald Cauldron Sect would be within their grasp.

“I...” Viola hesitated, biting her lip tightly. After a moment of contemplation, she said, “Even if I wanted to, Jared might not be willing. After all, all his women are far more beautiful than me.”

“Ms. Viola, no matter how stunning Jared's companions are, they are not by his side now. As the saying goes, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. As a man, I understand their nature best. If you take the initiative, Jared won't be able to resist and will surely fall for your charms,” Ghaylen reassured.
