The Man's Decree novel Chapter 1706

Despite all the nonsense Astrid was spewing, Jared didn’t even get to interrupt. “Jared, it turns out that you still miss my sister. In that case, why haven’t you visited us in such a long time? My sister has even been calling out your name in her sleep.”

Millie, who had come forward, asked in a teasing tone. “I… I was just too busy and didn’t manage to find the time,” Jared replied in embarrassment.

“That’s not going to be a problem going forward. We’ll be seeing each other very often.” A look of delight flashed across Millie’s face. “Why?” Jared was stunned.

“Cecilia has decided to move Crimson Palace here. Being near to each other, we’ll be able to meet frequently.” Millie finished with a giggle.

The news blew Jared away, as he didn’t expect Cecilia to make such a momentous decision. In response to Jared’s silence, Millie continued, “Cecilia did this for you. Therefore, you cannot let her down.”

With that, Millie skipped away to catch up with her sister. Dumbfounded, Jared didn’t know how to even react.

Considering that he already had enough women to deal with, he didn’t expect Cecilia to join the fray. More than an hour later, most of the guests had already arrived.

Jared went around, toasting his guests at every table. Regardless of their true intentions for coming, Jared treated everyone present as his honored guest.

That said, there was one table in particular that Jared was terrified to approach-the one where Cecilia and Astrid were seated.

Jared didn’t know whose bright idea it was to concentrate all the women at a single table. Seated there were Cecilia, Astrid, Evangeline, Lizbeth, Lyanna, and a few others.
