Chapter 627 You Must Leave
“Those are bad guys, Mr. Deragon. Had I not killed them, they would have… done those things to me,” Melanie Woodlands whined.
“Nonsense! Do you think Jared will bully you as well?” Rayleigh stared daggers at her.
“I… I heard from you that he’s got superb prowess in battle, so I wanted to test him out. Turns out it’s nothing great.”
Melanie cast a contemptuous look at Jared and criticized him, “Also, his personality sucks. He looked on while I was in trouble and had no intention of helping me.”
Jared listened attentively to their conversations and was rather confused. So, they know each other, and Rayleigh talks a lot about me too. Anyhow, they don’t seem to have any ill intentions toward me. At the very least, I know they won’t harm me.
Rayleigh turned to Jared, simply refusing to believe that the latter was not bothered by Melanie’s safety.
Jared justified himself at once. “She tested me using her spiritual sense, and that’s how I knew that she’s an energy cultivator. Those few guys were clearly not her match. Hence, I didn’t interfere.”
Upon hearing so, Rayleigh was infuriated and blasted Melanie, “How dare you use your spiritual sense on Jared? You’d have made a grave mistake if his mind had been affected.”
Judging from Rayleigh’s stern expression, Melanie finally realized that she had done something unacceptable. She bowed her head and kept silent.
Suddenly, some footsteps were heard. Rayleigh arched his brow and pulled both Melanie and Jared aside. “This isn’t the right place to talk further. Someone’s coming…”
Jared felt his body stiffen, followed by a rustling sound at his ear. Before he knew it, he had been transported to a small park.
