The Man's Decree novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3 Knocked Down

“Mom, are you all right?” Jared asked with concern after Baldy and the rest left. “Those men are gone.”

“Why did you have to come out and offend him!” she scolded.

“Pick up the money from the floor quickly. It’s what we have painstakingly saved all this while.”

Stooping to the ground, Jared put the notes and loose change back into the pouch.

“Mom, I’ll be the breadwinner going forward, while you and Dad can rest. As for your eyes, I’ll think of a way to get them treated.”

When he was done picking the money up, he returned the pouch to Hannah.

“I’m glad to hear you say that,” Hannah replied, before bursting into tears again. “Now that you’re back, my mind is finally put at ease. If it wasn’t because I was worried about you, I would have been dead long ago.”

Jared’s eyes could not help but water when he saw the look on his mother’s face.

Bang!

Unable to hold back his emotions, he slammed his fist on the table.

Crack!

The table shattered into pieces instantly.

The Scotts, the Gibsons… I will definitely make all of you pay.

A burning rage began to grow from within him.

Sensing Jared’s fury, Hannah quickly added, “Jared, please don’t cause any more trouble. Now that you’re back, you should get a proper job. Everything will work out after that.”

“Mom, don’t worry. I know what to do. Anyway, I’m heading out.”

After comforting his mother, Jared planned to confront Sandy and demand to know what had truly happened.

While leaving his home, Jared was enveloped with anger.

Just when he was crossing the road, a red Porsche sped toward him and crashed into him, sending him flying.

Bam!

Jared landed heavily on the ground. He would likely have been killed if not for his training with Draco.

“Who’s the crazy driver!”

Jared, who was already angry, was further infuriated after being run down the moment he left his house.

In the midst of Jared’s curses, a female voice cried out, “Why don’t you f*cking look where you’re walking?”

The next moment, a beautiful woman alighted from the Porsche. She was wearing a white full-length dress and killer heels. Nevertheless, she was staring angrily at Jared.

Furrowing his eyebrows, Jared decided to lie back down instead of getting up.
