Such a huge commotion had Joshua coming out of his room.
More than a dozen people surrounded Jared. Every one of them was a Martial Arts Grandmaster, their auras powerful.
Joshua studied Jared. Frowning slightly, he asked, “Who are you? Why did you barge into the manor in the middle of the night?”
“D*mn it! Why are your scripts all the same?” Jared lambasted. Then, he ordered, “Have Karl get out here! Tell him that Jared Chance is here to settle the score with him!”
The instant Joshua heard Jared's name, his expression changed in a flash.
Never had he expected that the man Karl had been fearing these days had actually arrived.
“Mr. Gardner isn't in residence at the moment. You came at the wrong time,” he fibbed.
“A single claim of him being away isn't going to appease me. I want to look for him personally!”
After saying that, Jared headed into the mansion to search for himself.
“Stop him!” Joshua's brows knitted together.
In a trice, over a dozen bodyguards surrounding Jared made their moves.
They're all Martial Arts Grandmasters we hired at a high price. With a dozen of them, they can at least deal with him no matter how powerful he is, yes?
Alas, Joshua was soon stumped.
He witnessed the helplessness of the dozen or so Martial Arts Grandmasters hired at a king's ransom before Jared.
Following a wave of Jared's hand, several of them collapsed to the ground.
It didn't even take more than three moves from Jared before all the Martial Arts Grandmasters were on the ground, no longer able to get to their feet.
Joshua whirled around to flee, but Jared reached out and lifted him.
“Where is Karl?” Jared demanded.
“Mr. Gardner... Mr. Gardner... is inside,” Joshua stammered, pointing at the mansion ahead.
