The Man's Decree novel Chapter 20

Chapter 20 Daydreaming

As for the ten million, Jared still hadn’t told his parents about it because he had no idea how to explain where it came from. I can’t possibly tell them that after three years of imprisonment, not only did their son pick up some divine martial art, but he also became the overlord of the Dragon Sect. They’re going to think that I’ve gone crazy!

“Your friend’s house? Where is it?” Hannah was curious.

“It’s at Dragon Bay!” Jared said as calmly as he possibly could.

“What?” Hannah and Gary both exclaimed in shock.

Dragon Bay was the most luxurious area in Horington. It was occupied only by the rich and famous. So expensive that even if Gary had not lost his job, he could’ve never been able to afford to stay there in his lifetime.

“What friend of yours, exactly? Not only could he afford a house there, but he’s also lending it to you?” Gary asked sternly.

“Umm… You wouldn’t know even if I told you!” Jared answered unconvincingly.

“Hmph!” Gary scoffed and continued, “Do you think you can fool us? Firstly, how could you have made such a friend? Secondly, there’s no way someone would lend others a house at Dragon Bay. Have you not learned anything else in prison other than bluffing? How about you just find a proper job and stop daydreaming?”

Feeling unconvinced, Gary continued to put on his work clothes, and he was about the leave for work.

 

“Dad, how could you say I’m bluffing if you haven’t even seen the house yet? Why can’t you just give me some credit? Regardless of what you think, I’m determined to move us there today!” Jared yelled in annoyance.
