    Chapter 347 Into The Den Of The Lion


    From Josephine’s question, it seemed that she had also heard of the Jantz family, and fear had taken


    her captive.


    s, Anthony shook his head. “It’s not that easy. Although Zachariah gave the Department of Justice


    three days, I know that he has long since sent men out to guard the various exits in Horington. He


    doesn’t believe in the Department of Justice!”


    “T-Then, what should we do?” Josephine started panicking.


    Both Walter and Glen wore grim expressions as well. After all, Jared once saved their lives, yet they


    were of no help then. Even the Whitaker family didn’t fear them, much less the Jantz family. Worse still,


    they didn’t even have the right to speak to the patriarch of the Jantz family.


    If Walter hadn’t retired, he might be able to talk to the Jantz family, but his influence was all but gone by


    then.


    “I’ll go to Summerbank with you!” Jared stated out of the blue.


    Everyone swung their gazes at him, and Josephine anxiously asserted, “You can’t go, and I’m not


    going to allow you to do so! You haven’t the slightest idea how powerful the Jantz family is!”


    “Mr. Chance, the power of the Jantz family is far beyond that of the Whitaker family. In fact, it was all


    because of the Jantz family’s backing that the Whitaker family could act high and mighty in


    Summerbank. At best, the Whitaker family was only involved in business, but the Jantz family is


    involved in martial arts. Zachariah Whitaker is even an internal energy Grandmaster, his capabilities


    immeasurable! Therefore, you can’t go!” Walter advised Jared, knowing quite a bit about the Jantz


    family.Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    In response, Jared merely smiled nonchntly. “The Whitaker family has been obliterated. I don’t mind


    wiping out the Jantz family as well.”


    “You’re too arrogant, kid. Haven’t you ever heard that there’s always truth to a rumor? The Jantz family


    has a foundation of over a hundred years and isn’t a family you can simply eliminate just because you


    said so.”


    A glimmer of disdain flittered across Anthony’s eyes.


    In the beginning, he had a good impression of Jared and admired him quite a bit after hearing that he


    saved Walter and Glen, but that remark had repulsion flooding him.


    He felt that the man was being too supercilious at such a tender age.


    “Time will prove whether I can wipe out the Jantz family!” Jared sneered.


    “Okay, let time prove it then. Since you’ve agreed to follow us back to Summerbank, let’s set out


    tomorrow. I can guarantee that no one will make a move against you during the trip there.”


    Anthony was initially caught between a rock and a hard ce since the man once saved Walter and


    Glen, but he no longer had to be conflicted when the man decided to y hero then.


    “Sure!” Jared nodded in acquiescence.


    Subsequently, Jared enjoyed the meal. On the contrary, Josephine had no appetite and couldn’t even


    stomach a single bite. Many a time, she wanted to dissuade him, but she swallowed the words on the


    tip of her tongue in the end. She knew his temperament, and no one could sway him when he had


    made his decision.


    After the meal, Anthony had Lizbeth follow Jared and Josephine home in order to prevent Jared from


    taking off during the night. Lizbeth was Josephine’s former ssmate and good friend, so it was no


    inconvenience for her to stay with them. Furthermore, it was only for a night.


    When they returned to the mansion at Dragon Summit, Josephine was down in the dumps. Lizbeth


    didn’t know how she shouldfort her either when her identity made things so awkward. Neither of


    them spoke, and the atmosphere turned oppressive.


    Jared made two cups of coffee and handed them to Josephine and Lizbeth, appearing wholly rxed.


    “Why are you so depressed? This isn’t some final farewell or something. I might be back from


    Summerbank in just a few days!” Jaredmented with a smile at the sight of Josephine all downcast.


    “Will you really not listen to me this once, Jared? Don’t go to Summerbank. If worsees to worst,


    we’ll just wait in Horington. If the Jantz familyes to pick trouble, we can still give it a go. If you go to


    Summerbank, aren’t you just walking into the lion’s den?” Josephine implored with a beseeching


    expression.


    “Do you think that’s still possible?”


    Jared shed her a smile and cast a nce at Lizbeth.
