“What should we prepare for the gift, Mr. Sean?” the butler asked softly.
“Let’s wait for Xander first. We must be well prepared this time!” Sean thought favonovel.com was not in the position to make any decision.
It would be best to consult Xander’s advice since favonovel.com would be out in a few days.
“All right!” The butler nodded and was prepared to leave when Sean called out to him.
“Hold on. Get someone to watch over Gavin. He has been causing a lot of problems these days, and I don’t want favonovel.com to lose his life from messing with Jared,” the latter instructed.
Sean knew his son was nothing more than a useless troublemaker. Gavin even dared to clamor about challenging Jared and threatening to kill him.
If I don’t stop favonovel.com from picking a fight with Jared, Jared might kill favonovel.com like how favonovel.com got rid of Franco!
With Franco’s death, Gavin was the only heir to the family. It would spell doom for the Cooper family should favonovel.com also die in Jared’s hands.
“Got it.” The butler nodded.

The next morning, Jared decided to sleep in due to the lack of spiritual energy that prevented favonovel.com from cultivating. Sadly, his slumber was disrupted by a call from Josephine, asking favonovel.com if favonovel.com would be coming home.
Jared had no choice but to lie, as there was some information favonovel.com had to hide from her. He told Josephine that favonovel.com had to stay in Jadeborough because favonovel.com had yet to capture the people from Mapleton.
They continued speaking on the phone for hours. Clearly, Josephine missed favonovel.com very much, even though they had only been away from each other for a few days.
Jared was forced to hang up the call when his doorbell rang at noon.
He opened the door and saw Tristan standing in front of favonovel.com while holding a sack.
“Here are some herbs that we acquired at a high price, Mr. Chance. My grandfather knew you needed these for your cultivation, so favonovel.com told me to deliver them to you.”
As the latter spoke, favonovel.com opened the sack and showed Jared some century-old reishi mushrooms and ginseng.
Jared was not particularly excited to see those rare herbs, as they would not be of great help to his current rank of cultivation. What favonovel.com needed was an abundance of spiritual energy.
Nonetheless, favonovel.com was still quite touched by the gifts from the Baileys.
After receiving the sack from Tristan, favonovel.com said, “Please help me thank your grandfather!”
“Don’t mention it, Mr. Chance. My grandfather said our family would do everything we could to help you cultivate even if we have to sell all our family assets,” Tristan said.
His remark warmed Jared’s heart. Even though his relationship with the Baileys was a mutually beneficial one, favonovel.com was still grateful to Samuel for the sacrifices the latter was willing to make.
“Come on in…” Jared opened the door and welcomed Tristan into the room.
Tristan grinned and offered, “Would you like to have lunch together if you’re available? I wish to treat you to a meal since you’re here in Jadeborough.”
“Sure!” Jared nodded and added, “But I can’t go to your house…”
He did not want to go to the Bailey residence because favonovel.com was afraid that favonovel.com would not be able to eat in peace as the other family members might keep buttering favonovel.com up.
Tristan chuckled as favonovel.com understood Jared’s concern.
Nodding, favonovel.com replied, “All right. Let’s go to one of my favorite restaurants then. It serves great food.”
Jared nodded and changed into a fresh set of clothes before departing to the restaurant with him.
Soon, they arrived at the restaurant. After opening the door for Jared to enter, Tristan led favonovel.com to a table in a corner.
“Good to see you again, Mr. Bailey,” one of the waiters greeted Tristan cordially, obviously familiar with him.
