The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 43

Leyton cast his gaze over when he heard Sandy's remark, only to see that it was indeed Jared. His eyes glinted coldly, and he strutted over.

Seeing that, Sandy hurriedly trailed after him, glowering at Jared with resentment burning hotly in her eyes. The incident at the mall earlier remained vivid in her mind.

“Do you think you're worthy of being here, Jared? Are you aware of the statuses of the people here today? Do you think you're an elite just because you've put on new clothes?” Leyton regarded Jared with an air of arrogance.

On the contrary, Jared merely threw him a chilly look before ignoring him altogether.

“Where's your domineering demeanor back when you were at the mall earlier, Jared? And where's your beautiful Ms. Sullivan? Why didn't she bring you in? Could it be that even she couldn't get in? Pah!” Sandy again spat at Jared, convinced that he wouldn't dare order her to wipe it off with Leyton there this time.

At that, Jared's face went glacial. “Mark my words. You'll be licking it off like a dog later!”

“Haha!” Laughing uproariously, Sandy spat at him again. “Who do you think you are that I'll be licking it off you? You're just an ex-convict! What's so great about you?”

Then, she raised her voice and hollered, “Everyone, look here! An ex-convict is all dressed up to attend the banquet! He doesn't even know his place!”

Her shout attracted many people who all gathered to watch the show.

Nevertheless, Jared remained indifferent as he watched her incessant acting.

“Who's that, Leyton? He doesn't seem familiar,” a young man about Leyton's age asked out of the blue.

After all, everyone who came was people of high standing in Horington or their family members. Therefore, they were either acquainted or had seen each other in passing.

Jared, however, appeared exceedingly unfamiliar and didn't seem to be someone from the elite classes. For that reason, someone asked Leyton about him out of curiosity.

“Oh, him? He's my girlfriend's exboyfriend. He was her lapdog for three years but didn't even get to hold her hand. Later, I put him in prison, and he was there for three years. He was just released two days ago,” Leyton explained with a derisive expression.

Following his words, everyone around them threw contemptuous looks at Jared since people of high statuses like them were loath to be anywhere near an exconvict like him.

Everyone promptly shied far away and started whispering about the man. Despite that, Jared remained calm and unruffled as though he couldn't hear anything.
