“Where is she?” Tristan was stupefied when Sonia was out of sight.
Franco's face turned grim when he discovered that Sonia was nowhere to be seen. “D*mn it! Did someone get ahead of us?”
“Hurry up! Chase after them now!” Tristan leaped upto chase after Sonia.
Franco gestured to his men and ran after Tristan too.
In the meantime, the wind whizzed against Sonia's ears as Jared moved at mind-boggling speed.
The latter finally came to a halt when they reached a secluded area and put her down.
Right that instant, she took the chance to bite him hard on the arm. Grasping the jade pendant in her hands, she stared at him with anxiousness written all over her face.
Jared looked at the deep bite mark on his arm and furrowed his brows. “I saved your life. How could you bite me?”
“Pfft! Don't ever think that you can make a fool out of me! I know you've been targeting my jade pendant. It’s the Yeagers' heirloom. I would rather destroy it than let it fall into your hands!" Sonia snapped coldly, glaring at him with her eyes.
Undeniably, Jared went after them because of Sonia's jade pendant. However, he never had the intention to snatch it from her. Now that she misunderstood him, he could not resist mocking, “Hmph! How ridiculous! You seem to treat this jade pendant as an invaluable treasure, don't you?”
The next moment, he turned and left, paying no heed to her.
Gazing at his retreating figure, Sonia was dumbfounded and stood rooted to the spot.
When she finally came to her senses after quite some time, Jared was already a distance away from her. She gritted her teeth and quickened her pace to catch up to him.
Jared shot her a glance and snorted. “Why are you trailing behind me?”
