Chapter 430 Fleeting Feelings
After wiping away her tears, Lizbeth began to relate her story.
When Walter was still an official in Summerbank, he was on good terms with the Coopers of Jadeborough. Back
then, the Coopers were still an ordinary family. Their influence began to grow only after leveraging Walter’s
network.
When Lizbeth had just graduated from university, she was engaged to Franco under Walter’s auspices. Back then,
she liked Franco for his distinguished looks and capabilities.
However, the good times didn’t last. After Walter retired, Franco not only called off the engagement but also
proposed to Mandy Bailey of the prominent Jadeborough family in front of everyone. Consequently, the matter
dealt a severe blow to both Lizbeth and her family. From then on, the two families fell out with each other.
Gritting her teeth, Josephine cursed, “Franco is worse than an animal!”

Coopers have been extremely ruthless in this matter. Unfortunately, many in this day and age behave the same
way too.
After having a simple dinner outside, Jared went back, while Josephine spent the night with Lizbeth to comfort her.
Subsequently, Jared used the time he had to make more revitalizing pills.
The next morning, Jesse came to see him.
“Mr. Chance, if you want to attend the Martial Arts Gathering, we will have to travel there today. Or else, we might
not be able to find any accommodation if we’re late,” Jesse informed him respectfully.
“All right then. Please wait for a moment. Let me leave some instructions with my men.”
After nodding in acknowledgment, Jared ordered Tommy and Phoenix to keep an eye on Josephine. With that, he
traveled to Tayhaven Town together with Jesse.
A long time ago, Tayhaven was a poor town. It wasn’t until Herb Palace developed it and held the annual Martial
Arts Gathering did it become a thriving place.
In every corner of the town, one could see medical institutions, hotels, and heavy traffic. Compared to many third
or fourth-tier cities, it bustled with a lot more activities.
“Mr. Chance, I have already made reservations for our accommodation. However, the hotels here are a lot simpler
than those in Summerbank. Therefore, you will have to lower your expectations.”
Jesse led Jared to a small hotel and stopped at its entrance.
“It’s okay.” It didn’t matter to Jared where he stayed.
When Jared followed Jesse into the hotel, he swept his gaze across the lobby and noticed the presence of many
warriors with strong internal energy. Among them were a few Internal Energy Grandmasters.
As Jesse walked across the lobby, many of them greeted him. Evidently, he was well known in that area.
It wasn’t until they arrived at the last room along the third-floor corridor that Jesse remarked, “Mr. Chance, this is
already the hotel’s best room. You’ll have to bear with it for the trip.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Jared entered the room, he noticed that it was only slightly bigger than ten square meters. There was also a
bed and a washroom. Even though the facilities were rudimentary, the entire place was very clean and had
cheerful surroundings. When Jared opened the window, he was greeted by the sight of the largest street in
Tayhaven Town.
“Jesse, did you make reservations for the room?”
At that moment, a group of men approached both of them.
In their lead was an elderly man who looked to be in his seventies. He was thin and frail with veins bulging all over
his body. In fact, he looked no different from a shriveled corpse. Nonetheless, his eyes sparkled brightly while he
walked with a spring in his step.
Behind the old man were two young men. One of them was massively built and had a brawny air to him. As for the
other, he looked a lot scrawnier. In spite of that, he had a set of mesmerizing eyes and emitted a smoldering aura,
just like a proud fighting cock ready to strike at any moment.
The one who had just spoken to Jesse was the burly man, who happened to be smiling at Jesse at that very
moment.
