The Man's Decree novel Chapter 243

Chapter 243 Less Than A Thousand

“The thing is, Frederick is too used to having his way all the time because of his social status. Although his father, Mr. Lowe, is an honest and upright man, he’s too busy with work to keep track of his son’s behavior. At the same time, no one around him dared to tell him anything bad about his son. That’s how Frederick has become so bumptious. I’ll go and get some pointers from Mr. Grange regarding this.” William left to find Walter after saying that.

“You shouldn’t have been so rough! We might be in trouble now!” Josephine shot Jared a helpless look.

“Well, that’s what happens when someone lays a finger on you!” the man said with a straight face while staring at her.

Upon seeing how protective Jared was of her, Josephine could not help but feel touched. After rolling her eyes at him, she suggested, “You better leave and lie low in the meantime. Let my dad consult Mr. Grange first. You should only return once they’ve settled that matter.”

Josephine then pushed Jared out of the residence, urging him to leave as soon as possible as she was afraid Frederick might bring some men over to take revenge.

Left with no choice, Jared let out a resigned sigh and headed home. Since the resources inside the Starry Compass were enough for him to cultivate for a full day, he did not go anywhere else.

The following morning, William gave Jared a call to invite him over to the Sullivan residence. As it was his future father-in-law’s order, he dared not defy it.

When Jared arrived at the Sullivan residence, he saw the older man had filled the trunk of a car with gifts.

“Jared, I’ll bring you to visit Mr. Lowe at his home. We should go over and apologize sincerely. Being the honorable man he is, I think he’ll forgive you,” William said.

Jared had initially thought of rejecting the idea but changed his mind upon seeing the dark eye circles on William’s face. He must’ve been up all night worrying about it!

Josephine wanted to go along as well, but William thought it was a bad idea because things could potentially get ugly if a scuffle were to break out due to her.
