A Man Like None Other novel Chapter 864

Chapter 864 Follow You Home

Suddenly, a petulant voice rang out. “Jared, you’ve been hiding here all this time! Have you been avoiding me for the past month?”

Lyanna huffily stormed over to where Jared was conversing with the elders.

Axton and the elders tactfully took their leave. They did not need to prolong their stay if Jared was fine.

Meanwhile, Jared hastily explained, “I’ve been in isolation the whole time, and I just came out. I was about to visit you.”

“Visit me? Please. Since when were you so kind?” Lyanna rolled her eyes in response.

Jared pretended to be angry as he retorted, “If I weren’t kind, you’d be dead by now. I almost sacrificed myself to save you.”

His words immediately caused Lyanna to apologize profusely, “Okay, okay, I know. Mr. Knox and the others told me all about it. You saved my precious life, so you can do anything you want.”

As she spoke, Lyanna surprisingly flung herself at Jared. Thankfully, he nimbly dodged her by taking a few steps backward.

When she saw him avoiding her, her face turned dark instantly. She wailed, “Jared, am I not pretty or something? What about my figure? Why are you so disgusted by me?”

“I’m not. You’re pretty, and you have a good figure. You don’t disgust me,” Jared sputtered while shaking his head.

Lyanna pouted and demanded huffily, “I’m practically flinging myself at you. Why are you avoiding me? Are you a man?”

Out of options, Jared decided to use Josephine as a shield. He explained, “I have a girlfriend.”

To his surprise, Lyanna did not seem to mind his relationship status at all. Instead, she replied, “I know, but she’s just a girlfriend, not your wife. And what if you’re married? I don’t mind being your mistress or a friend with benefits. I don’t need a label on our relationship as long as you’re nice to me.”

Jared’s head throbbed painfully from Lyanna’s bold offer.

He eventually changed the topic and declared, “All right, let’s not talk about that for now. I need to go home for a couple of days. It’s Thanksgiving, and I want to visit my parents. You can stay in Medicine God Sect and celebrate the festival with Mr. Knox and the others.”
