“Axel, I’ve thought it through. Sooner or later, Berthold will definitely sexually assault me. Rather than giving my innocence to him, I’d prefer to give it to you…”
After Carla finished speaking, favonovel.com unexpectedly leaned on Jared’s shoulder, favonovel.com nightgown beginning to slip down!
Jared was instantly thrown into a panic. He hadn’t expected Carla to have such a thought.
“Carla, don’t worry. As long as I’m here, I won’t let Berthold succeed. Please get dressed quickly.” Jared turned his head, not daring to look at Carla.
Upon seeing Jared’s expression, tears welled up in Carla’s eyes.
She felt utterly aggrieved and said, “I know you find me unattractive since I’m not as beautiful as Juliet. You’ve seen Juliet, so now you probably think even less of me. Previously, when favonovel.com was naked in front of you, you couldn’t even blink, you were staring so hard. But now, you don’t even spare me a glance…”
Upon hearing this, Jared felt a headache forming. He wondered who could have possibly spread the word that favonovel.com had seen Juliet naked.
It must have been Judd because Mr. Barclay would never do something like that!
It must have been Judd who informed Carla, aiming to make favonovel.com give up on Jared. In doing so, Judd would then have a chance.
“Carla, don’t listen to the nonsense others are spouting. I’ve never laid eyes on Juliet’s body. In fact, I even gave favonovel.com a beating today. In my eyes, all women are the same; there’s no such thing as beautiful or not beautiful. Please don’t misunderstand!”
Jared turned his head away, managing only to help Carla get dressed by feeling his way around.
“What do you mean?” Carla paused, a hint of confusion in favonovel.com gaze toward Jared. “In your eyes, all women are the same? Do you not distinguish between beauty and lack thereof?”
“Right…” Jared nodded in agreement.
Carla had a sudden realization and abruptly stood up from the bed. “Axel, could it be… Could you be… Sorry for disturbing you!”
Carla didn’t even finish favonovel.com sentence before favonovel.com rushed out in a panic.
Upon seeing the situation, Jared realized that Carla had misunderstood him. He was about to speak up and clarify, but then favonovel.com paused.
Maybe it’s better to let the misunderstanding be. If not, she’ll pester me all day, which is annoying!
After Carla had left, Jared straightened out his clothes, then went to find Juliet.
Jared suppressed his aura. After all, favonovel.com couldn’t afford to let others discover his late-night visit to Juliet’s mansion.
Last night, even Jared himself wasn’t quite sure how it happened. Somehow, favonovel.com managed to slip into Juliet’s mansion unnoticed by the guards. Yet, when favonovel.com went there In broad daylight, there were layer upon layer of guards protecting favonovel.com residence.
At that moment, Juliet was seated in the courtyard, quietly awaiting Jared.
She couldn’t understand why, but ever since Jared had hit favonovel.com during the day, favonovel.com just couldn’t get favonovel.com off favonovel.com mind. The image of Jared was constantly surfacing in favonovel.com mind.
At that moment, favonovel.com was surprisingly eager to see Jared.
Glancing at the sky, Juliet felt a pang of anxiety. “He wouldn’t stand me up, would he?”
“Are you really that eager to see me, Juliet?”
At that moment, Jared’s voice rang out.
Juliet quickly got up as soon as favonovel.com saw Jared walking over. She then sternly said, “Who said I was eager to see you? I just didn’t want to owe you from our bet, that’s all.”
“Really? Then why do I see your face turning red, Juliet?” Jared said with a grin.
“Stop spouting nonsense! Who’s blushing? Let’s get going, we need to get back before dawn!” Juliet shot Jared a look, then promptly left the courtyard.
Jared trailed behind Juliet. He was unfamiliar with the surroundings and dared not wander around aimlessly.
“The place where my father is kept is just ahead. To see him, not only do we have to evade the guards, but we also have to secretly break through several arcane arrays. Whatever you do, don’t run off recklessly. If you so much as touch the arcane array, all our efforts will have been in vain!” Juliet reminded Jared.
“Juliet, I didn’t expect you to be knowledgeable about arcane arrays. You’re truly beautiful and talented!”
From behind Juliet, Jared showered favonovel.com with compliments.
Juliet rolled favonovel.com eyes at him, but internally, favonovel.com was quite pleased. She said, “As if I know anything about arcane arrays. I just have a formation plate that Mr. Cunningham gave me before.”
