A Man Like None Other novel Chapter 1700

“Mr. Gunderson, based on what I know, there will be a huge group of representatives from prestigious families coming to Jadeborough during these two days,” informed Verner.

Fernando was puzzled. “Jadeborough? Why are they coming to Jadeborough? Are they trying to get the government’s attention?” Shaking his head, Verner answered, “Their motive is the same as mine. We want to overtake someone’s position.”

Fernando could barely believe his ears. They’re all powerful people. Do they really need to overtake anyone? “Ah, I know what you’re talking about. Jared’s

sect-Deragon Sect-is having its opening ceremony in two days. You guys are trying to overtake Jared, aren’t you?” Astrid questioned.

Verner nodded in response. “Currently, Jared is the most popular person in the Jadeborough martial arts world. Hence, everyone wants to take his place.”

“So, you’ve come to Jadeborough to overtake him?” Astrid’s brows were knitted into a tight frown, and her expression had turned grim.

Oblivious to Astrid’s displeasure, Verner nodded and said, “Of course. A person’s reputation in Jadeborough’s martial arts world would skyrocket as long as he or she defeats Jared. It’s very important to a family’s development”

“Hmph! Whoever dares to overtake Jared will be making an enemy out of the Gunderson family. We’ll never stand idly by,” Astrid said sternly

For a moment, Verner was stunned before he turned to look at Fernando. “Mr. Gunderson, what does Ms. Gunderson mean by that? Does your family have some kind of relationship with Jared?”

Of course, Fernando would never reveal the fact that Jared was the overlord of Dragon Sect, which the Gunderson family was a part of.

Thus, he explained, “Well, she and Jared are friends. In fact, we might become a family in the future. Do you understand what I’m saying?”

Verner listened intently and finally came to a realization. “I see. Now that you’ve said that, it makes me want to see Jared sooner. I want to know what makes him so attractive that even a beauty like Ms. Gunderson would fall for him.”
