The Man's Decree novel Chapter 390

Chapter 390 Air Of Grievance

Getting out of the car, Phoenix gazed at the Jantz family’s mansion. She turned to Jared. “Mr. Chance, you still haven’t found a place to stay in Summerbank, right? This place looks nice.”

Jared nodded and accepted the suggestion. After all, he knew he could not keep staying at Lizbeth’s place, especially now that Josephine had come too.

Seeing Jared nodding his head, Lizbeth felt disappointed for some reason. However, she immediately recollected herself from whatever inappropriate thoughts she had. Jared belongs to my good friend. I can’t have any improper thoughts for him…

Walking into the mansion and looking at its luxurious design, they were somewhat amazed by all the antiques inside the building. What a sumptuous lifestyle Zachariah had!

Jared chatted with Josephine and Lizbeth in the living room while waiting for Phoenix and her men to scan the entire place.

A short while later, a subordinate of the Phoenix Regiment rushed to the living room. “Mr. Chance, Madam asks you to go over there…”

Upon seeing the subordinate’s panicked look, Jared jumped up from the couch. “What’s going on?”

“I… I am not sure as well,” The subordinate answered.

Jared immediately left with the subordinate. Josephine and Lizbeth followed along as they were curious.

 

Before long, they came to a secluded courtyard in the mansion. Phoenix, Tommy, and the rest had surrounded the yard, their gazes filled with rage.

“Phoenix, what’s wrong?” Jared questioned.

 

“Mr. Chance, please take a look for yourself.” Phoenix pointed at a house in the middle of the courtyard.

Jared shifted his gaze toward the house. He was bewildered to discover over ten girls locked up inside it. The girls recoiled in fear when they saw him. It was evident they had been living in a great fright.

“What’s exactly going on here?” Jared furrowed his brows tightly.
