The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 221

Jared planned to wait and see whether there were any opportunities after making the trip to Nameless Island on the 15th of July. Perhaps he could also bring Josephine onto the path to immortality.

“Why, do you have any objections when I'm offering to marry you despite being the heiress of the Sullivan family?” Josephine groused in chagrin when the man said nothing.

At once, Jared shook his head. “Of course not! It'll be the greatest blessing if a pauper like me gets to marry someone like you!

However, I'm a man. How could I have you support me? I want to strive by myself so that you'll be revered by all in the future!”

Following his words, a wealth of warmth suffused Josephine, and she giggled happily. “I didn't expect you to be such a sweet talker! But then, you don’t need to strive anymore. I'll have my father transfer all the assets of the Sullivan family to your name directly. I've already handed my company to you and appointed you as the Chairman anyway, so other companies don't matter much. Besides, I'm his only daughter!” “Uh...” Words eluded Jared. How is this different from supporting me?

Thus, he changed the subject. “Okay, let's talk business. What's the progress with the medicinal herbs I asked you to prepare? It's been several days now.”

He knew that he couldn't continue arguing with her on the issue of marriage, or she might even drag him to the civil affairs office tomorrow itself.

“It should be about done. I'll rush things tomorrow and hand them over to you.”

Because some of the medicinal herbs Jared needed were rare, it took some time, and that was why Josephine hadn't been to seek him out recently—she went everywhere in search of the medicinal herbs.

Right after she had finished speaking, a gust of wind swept past. On the heels of that, black clouds shrouded the moon.

It appeared as though a downpour was imminent.

Crack'.Boom!

A bolt of lightning struck before a clap of thunder split the sky.

“Ahh!” Josephine shrieked.

Her hands slipped, and the car barreled toward the drain at the side.
