A Man Like None Other Chapter 254

Chapter 254Chapter 254
Jared phoned Tommy and asked him to pick him up. He planned to give him the revitalizing pills he had
just crafted, then reserve a table at Meadow Restaurant.
It did not take long for the latter to arrive, and they headed for Meadow Restaurant at once. When they
were in Tommy’s office, Jared passed him the revitalizing pills and said, “There are twenty pills here.
The amount you spent on the herbs is the cost. I won’t interfere in how you choose to sell them and
their selling price. I’ll leave that up to you. If the response is good, we can proceed to increase the
scale of production.”
Tommy took the pills and answered, “Got it. By the way, I’ve reserved Majestic Hall for you. It’s the best
room here. Your guests will surely be impressed.”.
Upon hearing his words, Jared shook his head. “There’s no need for that. Just a basic private room will
do. We’re going to need money for many other things, so we should be more careful about our
spending in the future.”
Tommy nodded and replied, “Okay. Got it.”
There was no familial affection between Jared and his uncle’s family. In fact, he harbored some hatred
toward them.
Jared’s family used to live in the countryside. Following Gary’s gradual promotion at his workplace,
they moved to the city. From then on, Jared’s uncle, Benedict Chance, who was also Gary’s younger
brother, would visit them with his family whenever they needed help.
Later on, Gary helped Benedict and his family move to the city. He also found a job for Stella. However,
they began to look down on Jared’s family as Benedict climbed up the ladder at his workplace.Their contempt toward Gary’s family intensified after Jared was imprisoned and Gary lost his job.
Benedict and the others never once visited them, ignoring them as if they were not blood relatives.
Part of the reason Hannah had told them they were staying in a mansion was that she wanted to brag
and impress them.
At noon, Jared’s parents arrived with Benedict and his family.
After Jared led them into the private room, Stella scanned the surroundings and
pursexi her lips. “You’lr staying in such an impressive Mannion, yet you bring us to a place like this for
lunch? It’s clear that you don’t think of Un as your relatives”
novelbinJared’s cousin, Gianna Chance, shot a scornful look toward Jared before saying, “Mom, we were
talking about it earliert Have you forgotten it NO NOON! They’re only borrowing it for a little while. It’s
not like they own the place. A mansion like that easily costs one hundred million, so how could they
possibly afford to buy 11?”
Stella snickered, “Oh, dear I can’t believe I forgot that!”
Soon, everyone was seated at the table.
While Jared’s family was forced to sit in the corner, Benediet sat at the head of the table with an
impassive expression.
There was a hint of disdain in his eyes, probably stemming from his perceived self importance due to
his position as an oflice administrator in a government department
Seated to his left was Stella. She was dripping with jewels, and her heavy makeup was unsightly with
blood-red lipstickHer son, Javier Chance, sat next to her. He was only a few months younger than Jared. Jared’s and
Javier’s grandfather was the one who named them back then, and he came up with the idea of giving
both of them names beginning with the letter J.
Unlike Jared, Javier was an idle person and was still a bachelor. If Jared had not gone to jail, he would
have been happily married by now.
A young man dressed in a suit and exuding an arrogant air sat on Benedict’s right. He was Simon
Moore, Jared’s cousin-in-law. His father was the chief of some ministry and was Benedict’s immediate
superior.
As for Gianna, she sat on the other side of Simon. She looked like the epitome of a rich man’s wife with
her designer clothing and long, manicured nails.
“Jared, when did you get to know such a wealthy friend? She has such a big mansion on Dragon
Summit, and she’s so generous to lend it to you. A friend like that is definitely someone you should
introduce to me. I heard your mother mention that your friend is a girl. Which family is she from?
Perhaps we could set her up with Javier,” Benedict stated in a pompous tone once everyone had taken
their seats.
