From Josephine's question, it seemed that she had also heard of the Jantz family, and fear had taken her captive.
Alas, Anthony shook his head. “It's not that easy. Although Zachariah gave the Department of Justice three days, I know that he has long since sent men out to guard the various exits in Horington. He doesn't believe in the Department of Justice!”
“T-Then, what should we do?” Josephine started panicking.
Both Walter and Glen wore grim expressions as well. After all, Jared once saved their lives, yet they were of no help then. Even the Whitaker family didn't fear them, much less the Jantz family. Worse still, they didn't even have the right to speak to the patriarch of the Jantz family.
If Walter hadn't retired, he might be able to talk to the Jantz family, but his influence was all but gone by then.
“I'll go to Summerbank with you!” Jared stated out of the blue.
Everyone swung their gazes at him, and Josephine anxiously asserted, “You can't go, and I'm not going to allow you to do so! You haven't the slightest idea how powerful the Jantz family is!”
“Mr. Chance, the power of the Jantz family is far beyond that of the Whitaker family. In fact, it was all because of the Jantz family's backing that the Whitaker family could act high and mighty in Summerbank. At best, the Whitaker family was only involved in business, but the Jantz family is involved in martial arts. Zachariah Whitaker is even an internal energy Grandmaster, his capabilities immeasurable! Therefore, you can't go!” Walter advised Jared, knowing quite a bit about the Jantz family.
In response, Jared merely smiled nonchalantly. “The Whitaker family has been obliterated. I don't mind wiping out the Jantz family as well.”
“You're too arrogant, kid. Haven't you ever heard that there's always truth to a rumor? The Jantz family has a foundation of over a hundred years and isn't a family you can simply eliminate just because you said so.”
A glimmer of disdain flittered across Anthony's eyes.
In the beginning, he had a good impression of Jared and admired him quite a bit after hearing that he saved Walter and Glen, but that remark had repulsion flooding him.
