A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4724

“All right, I've acknowledged your sincerity. We'll forget about the Decree of Execution. As for my brother's injuries, since you're being so generous, I'll accept those thirty thousand celestial crystals on his behalf. However, I've always been clear about debts and grudges in my dealings. If you really provide us with a large number of celestial crystals, I promise to repay you doubly if the opportunity arises in the future.”

Fraser decided to hold back on revealing his identity as the fourth prince of Twilight Imperial City for the time being. His immediate priority was to secure the celestial crystals.

Once the celestial crystals are finally in our possession, it won't be too late to take Jared to Twilight Imperial City. The resources within the city are on the verge of exhaustion, so obtaining such a large quantity of celestial crystals all at once is a blessing.

Since Jared is my brother-in-law, the celestial crystals technically belong to the family. It shouldn't really count as deception.

“There's no need for repayment. When it comes to friendship, I've never been concerned about what someone can offer me. The only thing that matters is whether they're worth my time.” Jared laughed heartily, giving Fraser a friendly pat on the shoulder. His laughter was a mix of sincerity and a hint of smugness. “Remember, in this world, both strength and wisdom are crucial. But what's even more important is where you stand and who you choose to walk with.”

Upon seeing the situation, both Theobauld and Salathiell expressed their positions. They were willing to follow Jared. Fraser didn't object, so they were even less likely to oppose.

Despite the lingering doubts in their hearts, they couldn't afford to pass up a chance that might alter their fate when confronted with such a generous and enigmatic individual.

If Jared really did possess a celestial crystal vein mine, they could treat the celestial crystals like mere rubble, using them as they pleased.

As the four of them reached an agreement, the atmosphere lightened considerably.

The expressions on the faces of Fraser, Theobauld, and Salathiell shifted gradually from initial shock and confusion to curiosity and anticipation.

They began to believe that perhaps this choice could truly open a door for them to unforeseen opportunities.

And the instigator of all this, Jared, wore an expression of calm and composure as if he had everything under control.

He knew well that true impressiveness wasn't about superficial flamboyance. Rather, it lay in the convincing aura that made people believe and the charm that made opponents willingly follow.
