    Chapter 455 Women In The Vige


    “Something caught up, and I have to put the trip on hold. But I want you to buy more stones from Mount


    Hickoria!” Jared said to Dominic.


    “Sure. I’ll go to Mount Hickoria myself and check out the stones!”


    After Dominic left, Jared told Josephine about Ingrid’s wedding. She knew a trip to the vige might not


    be pleasant, but as someone who understood Jared, she agreed right away.


    They then started their journey and drove back to Jared’s hometown.


    His hometown is a vige in Horington that used to be a small settlement, but itsndscape had


    drastically changed due to the development in thest few years.


    Jared saw many houses were pped with a demolition notice to make way for development projects.


    That was why Benedict insisted on getting his hands on the family residence!


    Children were running around in the vige. Jared did not know anyone of them since he had not


    returned for many years.


    “Hey, taking a break from work?” He rolled down the car’s window and greeted the seniors who were


    sitting by the curb.

    Jared knew who they were. After all, he grew up in the vige and stayed here until middle school. He


    only moved out when his father was transferred to work in the city.


    The elderly folks walked over to take a closer look. One of the middle-aged women instantly recognized


    Jared. “Aren’t you Jared? I thought you were still in jail? Since when were you released? And now you’re


    driving a Mercedes-Benz?”


    She studied Jared from head to toe.


    Jared responded with a wry smile. “I came out of jail not long ago.”


    “Oh. Did youe back to attend the wedding? Ingrid’s husband is super rich, and he’s the boss of a big


    company! Maybe he can help you find a job. All right, all right. I’m not gonna disturb you anymore.” The


    woman waved her hand in the air.


    Jared nodded and rolled up the window. He then looked at Josephine and said awkwardly, “That’s how


    blunt women in the vige speak, but they don’t have any bad intentions. She used to boil eggs for me


    when I was a child!”


    Josephine responded with a grin but kept mum. Perhaps, she was not used to the way vigers spoke.


    Soon, Jared arrived at his family’s house. After parking his car in the courtyard, he took a nce at the


    residence that was made up of five individual buildings. My parents must have given the house a fresh


    coat of paint.


    “Dad! Mom!” he shouted from the courtyard.


    Standing in front of the house and calling his parents brought back childhood memories.


    As a child, Jared used to call out to his parents when he returned from school. He would then dump his


    bag in the corner of the courtyard and run out to y.


    “You’re back!” Hannah came out of the room and greeted her son.


    “Hello, Mrs. Chance.” Josephine greeted her with a grin.


    “Josephine! d to see you. Come on in!” Hannah nearly jumped with joy.


    She initially thought someone as rich as Josephine would not want to step into their lowly vige. Even


    though Jared promised to talk to her about it, Hannah did not expect her toe. That was why Hannah


    was overjoyed when she saw Josephine standing in front of her.


    “Where’s Dad?” Jared asked.


    “He has gone to Sarah’s to help with the wedding!”


    That was how life in the vige was. Vigers would always do their part to support a wedding. Family


    members living in the same vige would contribute even more to make the event a sess.
