With a wave of his hand, Jared retrieved all the silver needles and placed them back in the cloth pouch.
“All is good now. She’ll be right as rain after resting for a few days,” Jared said to Kieran.
“Darling, Darling!” Kieran hurriedly called out to his wife.
The elderly woman slowly opened favonovel.com eyes.
When favonovel.com saw the crowd in the room, favonovel.com murmured in bewilderment, “Why are there so many people here, Kieran?”
“Oh, don’t worry about it! They’re here to treat you. You’re fine now, so just rest!” Kieran urged in euphoria when favonovel.com had ascertained that his wife had truly recovered.
Jared and the others left the room quietly and went to the courtyard. When Kieran came out, favonovel.com dropped to his knees before Jared right away.
Jared was stunned for a moment, but favonovel.com swiftly reached out and pulled the man up without allowing the latter’s knees to touch the ground.
“You’re truly my family’s savior! I thank you for your kindness! We don’t have much money, so I really don’t know how I should repay you…” Kieran kept thanking favonovel.com incessantly.
He was skeptical in the beginning, but favonovel.com was then eternally grateful to Jared.
“Mr. Chance isn’t here for money, so you don’t need to do this, Kieran,” Walter advised.
If it were because of money, favonovel.com wouldn’t be here!
“True, true! He isn’t hurting for money at all!” Kieran nodded fervently.
After all, favonovel.com had seen Jared and Josephine arriving in a luxurious car, so Jared couldn’t possibly be strapped for cash.
“Let me get you a few chickens and ducks instead so that you can have a feast later, Mr. Chance! I rear them myself, and they’re all well taken care of.” While saying that, favonovel.com made to go and catch a few chickens and ducks for Jared.
At that, Jared quickly stopped favonovel.com from doing so, asserting, “Don’t be such a stranger with me, Mr. Snyder. If you really want to thank me, do you mind giving me the meat reishi mushroom? I don’t mind paying for it!”
Hearing that, Kieran was stumped and regarded the man with a look of puzzlement. “Didn’t you say that it has no medicinal value and is poisonous instead, Mr. Chance? Why do you want it?”
“Indeed, it’s of no use to the average person. However, I need it for my training.”
It so happened that Jared could use it in his training. In fact, favonovel.com believed that favonovel.com would improve by leaps and bounds if favonovel.com absorbed the essence of the meat reishi mushroom.
“Since it’s of use to you, just take it, Mr. Chance. I’m going to dump it anyway, as I don’t dare keep it at home anymore!”
Without an ounce of hesitation, Kieran handed the meat reishi mushroom in his hand to Jared.
Jared wanted to pay for it, but Kieran staunchly declined and refused to take his money.
After leaving Kieran’s house, Josephine lamented in disappointment, “I initially thought that I’d get to see some novel things, but there was nothing at all.”
At the sight of favonovel.com crestfallen expression, Jared chuckled softly. “There aren’t that many ghosts and spirits in this world. Anyway, just don’t pass out in fright if you do have the opportunity to see them.”
“That won’t happen with you protecting me!” Josephine beamed at him.
After dropping Jared off, Josephine sped off. And no sooner had the former gone upstairs did Hilda slowly come out from behind a gigantic tree in the courtyard in the neighborhood. She stared at the man’s back, a riot of emotions brewing within her.
She had been secretly waiting there for him, wanting to see who exactly the woman was. However, favonovel.com didn’t get to do so, since it was too dark, and Josephine didn’t alight from the car.
“Let’s go home, Sweetie. If favonovel.com really chose to date the rich girl, that’s his choice,” Chloe murmured, patting favonovel.com daughter gently on the shoulder.
“Yeah…” Hilda nodded, but tears shimmered in favonovel.com eyes.
When Jared arrived home, favonovel.com went to bed early.

It was Saturday the following day, so favonovel.com was planning to make a trip to Dragon Bay. The spiritual energy there was more bountiful, and there was no one to disrupt him. Therefore, it was the perfect opportunity for favonovel.com to absorb the essence of the meat reishi mushroom.
