The Man's Decree novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40 Bumping Into His Former Girlfriend

Chuckling, Jared stood there and waited for Josephine.

Many ladies who spotted him when they walked past inexorably turned back and stole another glance at him. Several of them even came over to him and asked for his contact, but he turned them all down.

Coincidentally, Sandy and Juliette were also shopping on the other side of the mall.

Still seething after having been hauled over the coals the day before, Sandy planned to go on a shopping spree to cheer herself up.

“Quick, look, Sandy! A handsome man is standing across from us! His back alone is mesmerizing!” Juliette said to Sandy in an excited voice.

Hearing that, Sandy hastily lifted her head and cast her gaze over. Sure enough, she caught sight of a tall man in a suit standing ramrod straight opposite them. From his mere back, one could sense the noble aura he exuded.

“Could it just be someone with an arresting figure but unsightly looks?” she wondered in a whisper.

“No way! I can sense that he’s definitely a handsome man! You’ve already got Mr. Scott, so leave this gorgeous specimen to me, Sandy!”

No sooner had Juliette finished speaking than she eagerly rushed over.

Sandy was also curious, so she promptly followed.

“Are you waiting for someone, handsome?” Juliette questioned, moving forward and tapping the man’s shoulder.

But the instant the man turned around, both Juliette and Sandy were wholly confounded.

“J-Jared? Why is it you?” Juliette exclaimed with surprise written all over her face.

Sandy was staggered as well, for she had never seen this side of Jared despite having been with him for a few years. It looks like clothes really do make the man!

“Why not?” Jared sneered when he saw that it was Juliette and Sandy.

“How could you patronize this mall? The things here are extremely expensive!” Juliette demanded with a puzzled expression.
