Chapter 864 Follow You Home
Suddenly, a petnt voice rang out. “Jared, you’ve been hiding here all this time! Have you been
avoiding me for the past month?”
Lyanna huffily stormed over to where Jared was conversing with the elders.
Axton and the elders tactfully took their leave. They did not need to prolong their stay if Jared was fine.
Meanwhile, Jared hastily exined, “I’ve been in istion the whole time, and I just came out. I was
about to visit you.”
“Visit me? Please. Since when were you so kind?” Lyanna rolled her eyes in response.
Jared pretended to be angry as he retorted, “If I weren’t kind, you’d be dead by now. I almost sacrificed
myself to save you.”
His words immediately caused Lyanna to apologize profusely, “Okay, okay, I know. Mr. Knox and the
others told me all about it. You saved my precious life, so you can do anything you want.”
As she spoke, Lyanna surprisingly flung herself at Jared. Thankfully, he nimbly dodged her by taking a
few steps backward.
When she saw him avoiding her, her face turned dark instantly. She wailed, “Jared, am I not pretty or
something? What about my figure? Why are you so disgusted by me?”
“I’m not. You’re pretty, and you have a good figure. You don’t disgust me,” Jared sputtered while
shaking his head.
Lyanna pouted and demanded huffily, “I’m practically flinging myself at you. Why are you avoiding me?
Are you a man?”
Out of options, Jared decided to use Josephine as a shield. He exined, “I have a girlfriend.”
To his surprise, Lyanna did not seem to mind his rtionship status at all. Instead, she replied, “I know,
but she’s just a girlfriend, not your wife. And what if you’re married? I don’t mind being your mistress or
a friend with benefits. I don’t need abel on our rtionship as long as you’re nice to me.”
Jared’s head throbbed painfully from Lyanna’s bold offer.
He eventually changed the topic and dered, “All right, let’s not talk about that for now. I need to go
home for a couple of days. It’s Thanksgiving, and I want to visit my parents. You can stay in Medicine
God Sect and celebrate the festival with Mr. Knox and the others.”
Jared did not n on celebrating Thanksgiving in the sect. He wanted to travel to Horington to visit his
parents and check in on William.
Once Lyanna heard that Jared nned to leave her alone in Medicine God Sect, she whined, “I want to
go with you. I don’t know anyone here, and I refuse to celebrate Thanksgiving alone. Bring me back to
Horington with you.”
“You need to behave yourself if you’re traveling with me. I’m just an ordinary man, and you can’t, you
know…” he trailed off awkwardly, uncertain of how to continue his sentence.
“I can’t what? Seduce you?” Lyanna could not help but cackle at Jared’s awkward behavior.
“In any case, behave yourself! Don’t try to do anything funny to me.”
Jared worried that he would not be able to hold himself back if Lyanna was too forting with her
seduction.
Lyanna shot him a teasing stare and replied, “Don’t worry. It’s not like I can drag you into bed if you
refuse my advances.”
Jared opted to remain silent. If we continue talking, who knows what filthy words wille out of
Lyanna’s mouth next!
After bidding Axton and the elders farewell, Jared and Lyanna took a flight back to Horington.
Before they boarded the ne, Jared texted Tommy, instructing thetter to pick him up at Horington
Airport.
When theynded, Tommy and his car were nowhere to be seen.

Jared muttered under his breath, “Is he hanging out with Phoenix again?”
He whipped out his phone and called Tommy. The line rang on and on, yet no one answered the call.
Jared frowned in concern. Although Tommy was gaudy, he was a responsible and meticulous man.
Jared almost always got through to him whenever he needed thetter’s help. This time, however,
Tommy appeared to be uncontactable.
Since Tommy was not answering his phone, Jared called Phoenix instead. s, no one answered the
phone.
Jared’s expression immediately darkened. He had a bad feeling about the situation.
