Chapter 232 Gifts Of Sincerity

Leyton approached Jared and said courteously, “Mr. Chance, I rushed over as soon as I could after

knowing that you were looking for me.”

Except for Sandy, everyone’s jaw dropped at Leyton’s display.

Why is the Scott family heir talking to Jared like he’s some kind of VIP? Aren’t they love rivals?

Jared’s gaze roved over his stunned audience before he scoffed. He pointed at Leroy and said, “I heard

that the Scotts have some dealings with him.”

Leyton glanced at Leroy. His gaze fell on the latter’s swollen cheek, and he seemed to catch Jared’s

unspoken hint. He replied, “Mr. Chance, we have outsourced portions of two property development

projects to him. However, we will be ending our partnership with him soon, and I will conduct stringent

inspections on the quality of his work. Should we come across any unsatisfactory work, we will deduct

his project commission and sue him for damages!”

Jared nodded lightly, secretly impressed by Leyton’s quick wit.

Leroy was taken aback by his words. “Mr. Scott, w-what is the meaning of this? Our collaboration—”

“We will dissolve our collaboration and put your project commission on hold. You will be responsible for

any damages incurred due to our partnership termination, understood?” Leyton cut in coldly and glared

at Leroy.

He did not have any courtesy left to spare after waiting hand and foot on Jared.

“T-This,” Leroy stammered, unable to make head or tail of what had just happened.

Jared got to his feet and patted Leyton on the shoulder, declaring, “Your attitude today saved your life,

but it’s not enough to save the Scott family.”

I won’t let him or the Scotts off the hook that easily. Sparing his life is the most I can do for him. There will

be more horrors in store for them.

Jared’s casual threat had Leyton paling instantly, and the latter immediately knelt before Jared, begging,

“Mr. Chance, as long as you can spare the Scott family from utter ruin, we pledge to serve you and your

interests for life. As a show of our sincerity, we can transfer ownership of our two property development

companies under your name!”

He whipped out two sets of contracts.

Leyton had come prepared, proving that he was more than just a rich playboy. He wanted Jared to

believe in his deference and disregard him as a future threat.

Walter and Tommy’s presence had made it difficult for Leyton to execute his plans earlier. This reunion

was thus the perfect opportunity for Leyton to offer his gift.

Jared was surprised by Leyton’s offer. The Scott family earned their wealth and reputation from

developing real estate. Their influence in Horington would undoubtedly plunge after they offered both

their companies to Jared.

However, the Scotts were so wealthy that they could still live comfortably after gifting Jared their

companies. It was a far more pressing matter to gain Jared’s mercy and ensure their survival.

Jared received Leyton’s contracts, much to the latter’s delight. If he accepts this gesture of goodwill, our

family may have a way out of this mess!

“Well then, I will spare the Scott family over your sincere offer.”

Jared signed the contracts, sealing the Scotts’ safety.

He was in dire need of the ample funds offered by their companies. The herbs Josephine had procured

had cost him millions. It was a costly yet necessary expenditure, given the weak spiritual energy atop

Dragon Summit and the rapidly depleting resources in Starry Compass.

Jared had to rely on crafting elixirs out of the precious herbs to increase the pace of his cultivation. He

needed to achieve Foundation Phase before mid-July to earn a spot on Nameless Island.

Relying on the weak spiritual energy alone would take him eons to achieve Foundation Phase.
