CHAPTER 2900 EVERYONE HAS A WEAKNESS
“Huh? Savior?” The stunned Jerison was filled with disbelief.
“I don't believe you. You must be lying, as he's weaker than you. How is it possible that he saved you? Get out of my way. I'm going to rip him apart. Men, prepare for attack!” Jerison barked, refusing to believe Quinley at all.
“I dare you.” Quinley's fiery glare sent a chill down their spines.
Just as Jerison was about to say something, Quinley walked up to him and gave him a slap.
“How dare you disobey me! Do you want me to tell Mason and have him order you to be brought back and taught a lesson?”
Quinley stared daggers at Jerison, causing him to shudder in fear.
Putting on a pitiful expression, Jerison held onto Quinley's arm. “Quinley, don't tell Mason about this. I'm sorry. I'll do whatever you tell me to, all right?”
Jared couldn't help but burst into laughter at the sudden change in Jerison.
It seems that everyone has a weakness. This younger brother is afraid of his sister. He has no choice but to bow down to the family hierarchy.
“Are you hurt?” Quinley asked upon returning to Jared's side.
The latter shook his head with a smile.
“Let me know if he ever causes trouble for you again, and I'll put him in his place. All he does is create a mess wherever he goes!”
Quinley shot her younger brother a glare as she spoke.
With his head hung low, Jerison didn't dare utter a single word of protest.
Meanwhile, Cloud was mesmerized by Quinley's stunning beauty the moment he laid eyes on her.
“Ms. Tall, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Cloud Seizon, scion of Stellaris Sect.”
Cloud took the initiative to come forward and introduce himself.
“Okay.” However, Quinley simply responded by giving him a nonchalant glance, a response that filled Cloud with embarrassment.
“Ms. Tall, where are you heading? Are you searching for the treasure too?” Jared asked as the treasure hunt was now common knowledge in the far north.
“I'm not looking for the treasure. Instead, I'm looking for someone...”
Quinley proceeded to briefly relate her search for Josephine to Jared.
In contrast to her relaxed tone, Jared's expression was suddenly brimming with emotion.
“Ms. Tall, what are the names of the two girls living with you? Tell me quickly!” Jared demanded as he abruptly grabbed Quinley's arms.
However, his grip was so tight that Quinley furrowed her brows from the pain.
“Kid, let go of my sister!” Jerison roared when he saw what Jared was doing.
“Shut up!” Quinley snapped at Jerison with a scowl.
When the latter backed off fearfully, Jared released his grip and apologized, “I'm sorry, Ms. Tall. I got too worked up.”
“Of the two girls who are staying with the Tall residence, one is called Feenix, while the other is Aislin. As for the one they got me to search for in the cave, her name seems to be Josephine...” Quinley elaborated to Jared.
The mention of the few names caused Jared's body to tremble uncontrollably.
“It's them. It's really them!” Jared mumbled. Material © .
His reaction gave Quinley a shock.
“Quinley, are the two girls you spoke of the ones Kaison captured to pleasure himself with?” Jerison inquired, oblivious to the drastic change in Jared's expression.
The moment he heard Jerison's question, Jared's brows furrowed as a terrifying aura began to envelop every single member of the Tall family.
If what Jerison says is true, Feenix and Aislin must have been sullied by the Tall family! In that case, I'll make sure their entire family is annihilated!
Sensing the murderous intent Jared exuded, Quinley staggered back in fear.
Viola, attempting to clear the air, frantically explained, “Ms. Tall, the girls that you mentioned are all Jared's girlfriends. They have been lost a long time, and Jared has been searching for them all this while.”
When it dawned upon Quinley what had triggered Jared's fury, she explained, “Jared, you have gotten the wrong idea. Kaison didn't lay a finger on them as I brought them back to my residence. On top of that, he has already been punished for it.”
Only after hearing Quinley's explanation did Jared's murderous intent gradually dissipate.
