    Chapter 304 The Same Name


    After regaining his senses, Zeke replied in a solemn tone, “Jared, I understand your ambition, but what


    you are asking for costs an arm and a leg. Despite how wealthy the Sullivan family is, even they might


    not be able to get you what you want. And if you don’t know how to judge the authenticity of the


    product, you might end up being cheated of everything you have!”

    “Zeke, I appreciate the advice, but I know what I’m doing,” Jared said.


    As Jared seemed to have made up his mind, Zeke didn’t try to dissuade him any further. Instead, he


    offered, “Jared, since you have just arrived in Yeringham, you should get some rest. Tomorrow,e to


    Goldenbirch Herbs and I’ll show you around. With me by your side, no one will try to swindle you.”


    “Why do you need to apany him? Aren’t you busy enough? He’s overambitious and ipetent.


    Does he even know how to recognize a hundred-year-old ginseng?”


    Yasmin’s disdain for Jared continued to grow.


    “All right, now. Since they have traveled so far, it’s only right that we show them around,” Zeke replied


    with a smile.


    “Go ahead if you insist, but I’m not free. I still need to work.” Yasmin frowned at Zeke. “Josephine,


    you’d better be careful and not just loosen your purse strings just because someone asked you to.”


    “I understand, Yasmin.” Josephine nodded.


    After the meal and bidding their farewells, Jared and Josephine nned to look for a ce to stay.


    Yasmin had invited Josephine to stay with her, but Josephine had turned her down on Jared’s ount.


    The moment they stepped out of the restaurant, Tommy drove over in his car after having it repaired.


    “This is my friend Tommy Lewis,” Jared introduced Tommy to Zeke.


    “Hello, I’m Zeke!” Zeke shook hands with Tommy.


    “Jared, I heard that the underground king of Horington is named Tommy Lewis and people call him Mr.


    Lewis. He is known to be extremely powerful in Horington and has hundreds of men under his


    command. Your friend here shares the exact same name as Mr. Lewis!” Zekemented in surprise.


    “There’re plenty of people who have the same name. Would someone like Mr. Lewis be a driver for a


    kept man? What are you even thinking?” Yasmin sneered.


    The moment she heard it, Josephine wanted to exin to her cousin that Tommy was indeed who they


    were talking about.


    However, Jared stopped her before she could say a word. With an awkward chuckle, he replied, “They


    just share the same name, that’s all.”


    He didn’t want Tommy’s identity to be revealed for fear of attracting unnecessary attention to their


    movements.


    After going their separate ways from the restaurant, Jared found a hotel and reserved three rooms, one


    for each of them. Truth be told, Jared had wanted to book only two rooms to save money, but


    Josephine had refused to allow him to do so.


    Having traveled the entire day and being hunted by the Whitaker family’s assassins, they quickly fell


    asleep out of exhaustion.


    Meanwhile, at the Whitaker residence, Kane was filled with anxiety.


    More than half a day had passed, and he hadn’t heard back from his men. Even when he tried to


    contact them, he couldn’t get through either.


    As his expression grew increasingly grim, the dread Kane felt intensified. He knew that something


    unfavorable must have happened to his men since they were unreachable.


    “Alfred!” Kane called out.


    “Mr. Whitaker.” A thin and hunchbacked old man entered.


    He was the Whitaker family’s former butler and was of the same generation as Kane’s father. After


    retiring from his butler duties due to his age, he continued to stay with the Whitaker family, as they


    treated him as their own.
