Chapter 53 She Meant Well,A Man Like None Other
Meanwhile, at the mansion on top of Dragon Bay, Gary and Hannah were resting in the living room
after taking a stroll. They were still trying to digest the fact that they were living in such a luxurious
home. Even though this is just temporary, it’s more than enough to experience this! “It seems that luck
is on our side! Although Jared has just gotten out of prison, he has already made such a good friend in
Josephine. I wonder how did those two meet each other,” Hannah said, beaming.
“Me too. But Ms. Sullivan does seem like a kind soul.” As Gary used to be a civil servant, he had seen
all sorts of people. Hence, he was always a good judge of character. “Since she’s from such a wealthy
family, what do you think she sees in Jared?” Deep down, Hannah had always been worried about the

However, right at the moment when Gary wanted to answer Hannah, a man in a dashing suit showed
up out of nowhere, catching Gary by surprise. “Let me answer your question!” the man exclaimed.
“Josephine is actually fooling around with Jared. Do you guys really think the famous Ms. Sullivan
would be interested in Jared? Stop daydreaming! Jared is way out of her league! He’s just a university
graduate! Besides, he’s poor.
No parents of a lady from such a prominent family would accept Jared. Josephine is just showing her
gratitude to him for saving her father’s life. Do you really think that they’re ever going to get married?
I’m Josephine’s real boyfriend. We’re meant for each other. I’d suggest that you guys give up on your
ridiculous hopes and dreams. Don’t you know where your son stands?” With that, the man sneered at
them, his eyes filled with disdain.
Gary and Hannah blanched upon hearing that. Despite the rude intrusion, they knew that the man had
a point. Not only was Jared just a commoner, but he was also an ex-convict. No parents would accept
Jared as a son-in-law. The man was pleased with Gary’s and Hannah’s reactions. He took out a stack
of cash and threw them on the ground. “Take them and leave! Don’t give me a reason to force you out
of that door!”
Upon saying that, the man turned and left in a sports car parked at the main entrance. Gary and
Hannah were dumbfounded. It was as if the man had just dragged them back to reality. After a long
while of silence, Gary let out a long sigh and started packing up his belongings. People like us don’t
deserve to live in such luxury. Hannah was incredibly saddened as well. Tears were streaming down

He tapped on Hannah’s shoulder and said, “Let’s go. We’ll talk to Jared about it later and have him face
the reality. He’s just not meant to be with Ms. Sullivan.” Finally, they left the mansion and returned to
their previous house. “Hannah! I thought you guys have moved into a mansion with Jared.
What are you doing back here?” their neighbor, a middle-aged woman, asked curiously. “Hi, Chloe!
Well, we couldn’t get used to living there.” Hannah chuckled awkwardly. Chloe Wallace was their
neighbor, who had lived through tough times as well. Her husband had passed away when their
daughter was just a teenager. She had to raise their daughter all by herself. “That’s good! Now I have
someone to chitchat with again!
Since Jared has just gotten out of prison, I knew that the situation was a bit far-fetched. The person
who lent him the mansion must have an ulterior motive. It’s better to avoid such people; otherwise,
Jared might get in trouble and get thrown back into jail again,” Chloe said directly. Although her words
were unpleasant to the ears, she meant well. “I know.” Hannah nodded.
