The Man's Decree novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11 Avenge His Grudge

As Jared stared at the woman whose face was caked with makeup, a glimmer of repugnance showed on his face.

The woman was Juliette Jones, and she was his former classmate. She had even pursued him back when they were still studying. At that time, his father had a proper job that was considered secure, so there was no shortage of girls trying to woo him.

However, he didn’t like her and got together with Sandy instead. He felt that the latter was far better compared to the materialistic Juliette, both in terms of looks and personality.

But from the look of things now, both of them are just the same kind of people! I made the wrong call!

“Why aren’t you saying anything when I’m your former classmate? Have you gone mute? You were pretty impressive back during our university days, even holding the post of president of the student council. What do you think the dean and lecturers would say if they were to learn that a student who was excellent in character and grades became an ex-convict after graduating?” the young man beside Juliette chimed in.

The young man was Warrick Fox, and he used to be Jared’s roommate. They used to be very close, but he also had a crush on Sandy. When he saw Jared dating Sandy, he held a grudge against the man. He tried to break them apart multiple times, but alas, to no avail.

They severed ties after that, neither contacting the other after graduating from university.

Well, the fact that they’re both here at the same time probably means that Sandy invited them. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have the right to attend the wedding.

Jared merely swept a glance over them before dipping his head and sipping at his water quietly. He wasn’t in the mood to bother with them.

When Juliette and Warrick saw him lowering his head, they grew increasingly smug, mistakenly assuming that he was afraid of them.

“Jared, I’m sure you haven’t found a job when you’ve only just gotten out of prison. Do you want me to recommend you for the job of cleaning toilets? While it’s somewhat dirty and tiring, you can at least make a living. Your father has lost his job now, so it’s of no use to pin your hopes on him.”

A triumphant smile bloomed on Warrick’s face, and he was over the moon that he could step all over Jared then.

Back during our university days, I wouldn’t have lost to him if it weren’t for his father having a secure job!

“Don’t talk nonsense, Warrick. How could the president of the student council clean toilets? At the very least, get him a clean job. How about cleaning the streets instead?” Juliette countered, giggling with a hand over her mouth.

“Haha…”

Warrick and Juliette’s ridicule of Jared had Baldy and the guests doubling over in laughter.

At that precise moment, Jared slowly raised his head. “If the two of you don’t want to die, hurry up and leave this place!”

His expression was indifferent, and his tone was mild without a hint of anger, but Warrick and Juliette both shuddered upon hearing that.

Juliette, especially, felt a chill engulfing her. It was as though her entire person was encased in ice, and she didn’t even dare look him in the eye.
