The coldness and murderousness in that gaze made Connor realize that Jared really wasn't just putting out harsh words and threatening him so simply.
Jared is serious.
If he really has the slightest dare to deceive him, and he knows it, he will definitely not hesitate and will absolutely immediately wring his neck.
If he were younger, Connor thinks he might not be so afraid of death.
But as he got older, experienced more and more things, witnessed people around him die one by one, his courage and boldness, also gradually reduced over time, becoming more and more afraid of death.
The older you get, the more afraid you are of dying.
Especially, this status of his makes him even more afraid of death.
Once dead, there is nothing left, the Stockert family's headship, power, money, he can no longer continue to enjoy, but back to the Stockert family sidekick's hands.
He did not want to see that result, he wanted to stay as the Stockert family's head of the family, until a hundred years old, always in control of the majority of the family life.
So, he definitely does not want to die early, never!
Connor slightly lowered his eyelids, avoiding Jared's murderous eyes, the only way the fear inside would be lessened.
"You also rest assured, since I have repeatedly said that I did not lie to you, it is natural that I will not lie to you, you can feel free to give me the letter of understanding, when the time comes, I will present together with the relic." Connor said.
Jared's thin lips pursed into a straight line for a while before he said, "I'll have someone come over before 5 p.m. After Alice comes out, you'd better keep people under control, and if you dare to break into my woman's head again, the next scene will definitely not be so simple."
"Don't worry, I will." Connor looked up and squeezed a smile out of his face at Jared.
Jared's purpose for coming here has been achieved, naturally, there is no desire to continue to stay, hands in the trouser pockets, turn around to leave.
Ben naturally followed close behind.
The two took two steps when Connor's voice suddenly came from behind them again.
"I was beaten this thing, I did not proclaim it, the outside world now so far do not know what I went through, you can know in such a fast time, that means my side, there are your people watching me, right?" Connor looked at the backs of the two men and said in a gloomy voice.
Jared stopped in his tracks.
When he stopped, Ben naturally followed suit.
"So what? You still want to get me in trouble?" Jared's thin lips pulled out a sneer, did not turn around, looked at the door of the ward and said.
Connor's eyes flickered with resentment, fleetingly, "Of course not, you're joking, in Olkmore, how dare I directly seek trouble with you, isn't that looking for death? I just want to ask, since your people have been watching me, then your people should have seen the faces of those who hit me, right?"
"Oh?" Jared raised an eyebrow, then turned his head around and looked at Connor sarcastically, "So what you're saying is that you want to pull the ones who beat you out of me?"
Connor's hand under the covers slowly clenched into a fist, "That's right."
"Then you've got the wrong person." Jared sneered, "What's my relationship with you? You actually presume to get the clues you want from me, do you think it's possible? I tell you, impossible, I will not help you, on the contrary, I will help those people cover up their traces, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, this saying you have not heard, right? So you want to find out the people from me, simply naive."
With those words, he turned his head back, never to linger, and soon walked out the door of the ward.
Connor watched them leave, angry face red and white, chest are rising and falling, as if at any moment to pass out of breath.
But the scourge of a thousand years, even if these scourges look very weak, ready to die at any time look like.
