A Man Like None Other

Chapter 1354 Lie

At that moment, Desmond hated himself for losing his rationality and betraying Cecilia. If he could still ally himself with Crimson Palace, there was no way Divine Beast Sect wouldn’t develop substantially with how powerful Jared currently was.

However, it was too late for that. Jared approached Desmond and stared at the latter coldly. In response to Jared’s icy gaze, Desmond trembled even more violently.

Then, the latter began to grovel at Jared’s feet. “I’m sorry, Mr. Chance. I was wrong. I was really wrong. It’s my fault for losing my rationality. I was forced by Colton, too. Please don’t kill me, Mr. Chance. I’m willing to do anything you want. Anything you want at all…”

He continued groveling and begging for mercy as Cecilia lifted her head from Jared’s embrace. After asking Jared to put her down, she stood and glared at Desmond viciously.

“Slimy little men like you who rely on more powerful people are the most despicable, Desmond. Here I thought you were a good man…” She hated him more than Colton. If it weren’t for Desmond, who abused her trust in him, Colton wouldn’t have gotten what he wanted.

“I was wrong, Lady Jingle. I know that now. Please, forgive me. I won’t do it again…” Desmond started crying.

The disdain in Jared’s eyes increased as he stared at the pathetic man coldly.
