Chapter 989 Why Should I
Howard’s words prompted Warren and the others to turn their attention to him. All of their eyes burned with fury upon hearing the man’s cheeky remark.
They were already frustrated because they had gone through quite a few traps to make it there. Howard’s diss only made them feel worse.
“Mr. Gordon.”
Edgar smiled the moment he saw Warren. With Warren on my side, I won’t need to worry about Jared and Howard.
“Mr. Edgar, I’m surprised you found your way here as well. Did you find any treasure on your way here?” asked Warren.
Warren and the others only encountered traps on their way. They never came across any treasure or magical items, so they were rather upset.
When Edgar heard that question, he immediately told Warren everything that had happened.
Warren’s eyes glowed with greed upon hearing about how Jared got his hands on a painting that could change its image.
“Jared, show me the painting you obtained.”
Warren walked over to Jared and spoke as though the latter was his slave.
“It’s mine, so why should I show it to you?” challenged Jared.
He was quick to turn Warren down.
Warren was taken aback. He didn’t expect Jared to blatantly go against him like that, and it infuriated him. “How dare you disobey my orders? I call the shots for this Trial, so don’t assume the painting is yours just because you got your hands on it. Anyone can claim it for themself. All we need to do is snatch it from you.”
As soon as Warren finished speaking, all the other participants of the Trial turned their attention to Jared and glared at him. They were ready to fight at any moment.
Too many had their eyes on Jared. It made it so that it would be difficult for even someone as powerful as him to deal with all of them.
“You are the director of the Warriors Alliance. Yet, you’re butting in on the Trial and are being unfair and unreasonable. Someone like you has no right to boss me around. I mean, seriously. Who the f*ck do you think you are?”
