That's so good.
Jared did not agree to collaborate with Talon.
God knows how afraid she was that Jared would agree.
After all, normally one would not discard two treaty ports in the capital in such an easy way.
Jared did not disappoint her at last.
"Fine. What a noble man you are, Mr. Farrell," Talon smiled and clapped his hands sarcastically, "Mr. Farrell, aren't you afraid that I'll catch you too? Further negotiation is out of the question now. I won't free Amber Reed and you won't let me go. What if I kill you together with my little boy and my little girl all together?"
These words made Amber's face get pale instantly. She shook her head towards Jared again, and shouted something to him.
No, I want you to go right now!
That's what she wanted to say to him.
Much as she wanted Jared to save her, she could still remember Talon's words that Jared came alone and thus he could not save her.
So, now, she hoped Jared to leave here right now rather than save her.
Though she didn't love Jared anymore, she didn't want Jared to die for her.
Then she wouldn't forgive herself even if she ended up dead.
Jared stared at Amber. He knew what she wanted to say, so he calmed down and said in a cold voice again, "You don't dare to kill me!"
He said assuredly, "Nor do you dare to catch me."
Those words made Talon's face changed suddenly.
Amber was also silent.
What did he mean?
Why would Jared say so?
The moment the question rose in her heart, Talon asked it out.
Talon's hands quivered and then he twitched his mouth before he said, "Why would you think so?"
"Because I know what the kind of person you are," Jared opened his mouth, "You are not the legitimate son of your father. That's why you want to be the master of the Rylands' family more than anyone else. Though you are so far a winner from all those illegitimate sons, you are still afraid of death."
The word "death" made Talon flinch a little.
Seemingly, Jared did not sense the change on Talon's face and he continued, "You'll have nothing if you die. So, you must know it clearly that if you dare to catch me or kill me, the Farrell family will spare no efforts to find you and kill you. You have no power to resist. Otherwise, you would have asked your men to catch me the moment I showed up."
Talon remained silent and no emotion could be told from his face. He only fixed his eyes on Jared firmly.
Amber knew Jared had got it right.
She was quite confused why Talon did not catch Jared when he showed up and she was also wondering why Jared dared to show up alone.
And now she knew the answer.
"So, could you give me Amber right now?" Jared walked over to him, "My request is still the same. You give me Amber and I let you go. You can kill whoever you want and I won't stop you. And my revenge later won't take your life. It's a fair deal."
