Chapter 293: Should She Pounce on Him?
Dexter and his seven brothers stood at the door, almost furious enough to explode! That despicable man! How dare he take liberties with Serena! Did he really think they were pushovers?
Jared Farrell lazily leaned back in his chair, his long fingers still resting on Tina’s shoulder, and said nonchalantly, “Didn’t your family teach you to knock before entering someone else’s house?” His cold eyes lifted slightly. “Or did they not teach you not to disturb a resting patient?”
He was very tired and sleeping soundly. If these people disturbed his rest, he would definitely teach them a lesson.
The eight men stiffened. They had rushed in and, upon seeing Jared Farrell kissing Serena, couldn’t control their anger and raised their voices. Although they felt a bit guilty for disturbing Logan’s rest, their remaining guilt vanished when they saw Jared Farrell’s hand still on Tina.
“Take your hand off Serena,” Wesley Soames said, clenching his fists until his knuckles cracked. He exuded a dangerous aura. He hadn’t fought in years but didn’t mind trying it out on Jared Farrell.
The others were also ready to fight, angrily shouting, “Let go! Are you looking for death?” Despite their anger, they kept their voices low to avoid disturbing Logan.
Jared Farrell tightened his grip on Tina slightly and raised his chin. “What? Didn’t your fathers teach you enough of a lesson last time?”
The eight men’s faces changed simultaneously. Before they could react, Jared Farrell pulled out his phone, ready to make a call.
Wesley Soames roared in frustration, “Jared Farrell! Are you even a man? Always tattling when there’s trouble? If you have guts, fight me one-on-one! I’ll knock your teeth out!”
He despised men who touched his Serena and those who tattled. Jared Farrell was both!
Jared Farrell’s lips curled up slightly as he said slowly, “Tina taught me to be civilized. I prefer solving problems in a civilized manner.” With that, he pressed the call button.
The eight brothers were speechless. What a dog!
“Wait,” Tina suddenly spoke up after watching quietly.
The eight brothers raised their chins challengingly at Jared Farrell. No matter how close he was to Serena, they were still more important to her.
“Tina…” Jared Farrell looked aggrieved.
“I have a question,” Tina said.
“Philip,” Tina looked up and asked, “I remember you have tools for opening special safes?”
Philip patted his chest and laughed, “Of course I do. Do you need them, Serena?”
Tina nodded.
“I’ll have someone send them over right away,” he said as he pulled out his phone to contact his subordinates. “I need a set of tools for opening safes delivered immediately-no delays!”
After making the call, Tina nodded in satisfaction and turned to Jared Farrell. “You can kick them out now.”
Jared Farrell was speechless. Using him and then discarding him without hesitation-that was so Tina! But he liked it!
The eight brothers were dumbfounded. Serena, how could you do this? We are on the same side! Those other men are all liars!NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Jared Farrell’s smile returned as he looked at the groaning brothers. “Not leaving?”
“Serena, you’ve changed,” Tristan said indignantly but couldn’t bring himself to be angry at Tina. “How can you help an outsider deceive us!”
Gavin pounded his chest in frustration, wanting to grab Jared Farrell-the culprit behind all this. “What did Jared Farrell do to brainwash you? Don’t fall for his tricks!”
“We are the ones who truly care about you; that man is just after your beauty!” The brothers complained bitterly as Tina ignored them and let Jared Farrell have them thrown out.
Logan was still sleeping. After checking on him and finding everything fine, Tina left the hospital with Jared Farrell.
Since Nathan Lehman was hospitalized, Hayden Cohen took over driving duties. However, because Jared Farrell and Tina needed some time in the ward, Hayden Cohen had some errands to run.
When Tina saw the car in the parking lot, she opened the door directly. Jared Farrell, who was about to go to the driver’s seat, changed direction and followed her into the car.
He held her hand and asked softly, “Tina, did you like the photos?” He hadn’t forgotten about her looking at pictures of muscular men late into the night yesterday and stared intently at her.
Tina looked him up and down slowly before answering calmly, “Yes. They were more impressive than you.”
Jared Farrell was momentarily speechless but then placed her hand on his chest. “I’m not impressive?”
As Tina’s hand brushed over Jared’s body through his shirt, she felt the firm muscles underneath. The saying “clothes make the man” seemed true; her wolfish uncle was no less impressive than those men in the photos.
With well-defined chest muscles and solid abs… As she touched him more, her heartbeat quickened. Meeting Jared’s intense gaze made her blush even more.
Cough! Should she pounce on her uncle or not? To pounce or not?
The temperature inside the car rose gradually as their distance closed.
“Mr. Farrell!” At that moment when they were about to kiss, Hayden Cohen suddenly opened the car door. “You should’ve told me you left the ward…”
He stopped mid-sentence upon seeing what was happening inside the car and froze in place.
What had he just seen?! Serena’s hand was on Jared Farrell’s chest!
Jared Farrell’s expression turned icy as he glared at Hayden Cohen. “What is it?”
Hayden Cohen snapped back to reality quickly and stammered, “Nothing! Nothing! Continue!”
He had just finished handling some matters and called Mr. Farrell to ask if they were leaving. When Mr. Farrell didn’t answer, he went to Logan’s ward only to find out they had already left. So he came to the parking lot and saw people inside the car but couldn’t see clearly what they were doing from outside-so he opened the door without thinking.
Who would’ve thought Mr. Farrell and Serena would be doing such things in broad daylight?! Mr. Farrell really didn’t consider him an outsider-didn’t he know that Hayden Cohen was one of Serena’s nine protective brothers too?
He wanted so badly to fulfill his promise of taking down any man who dared touch Serena-but damn it-he didn’t dare!
