Chapter 1820
Bang!
Behind Garrett, a car door was slammed shut, prompting him to jump in fright. He turned around and saw a tall, strapping male
with a thunderous look striding toward him under the streetlight. Instantly, he recognized
the man.
“It's you.” Garrett was still in a drunken state. If he was sober, he would not dare to go against this young man.
However, as he recalled being thrown out of the place this morning, he was filled with anger. He pointed at Jared and yelled, “W-
Why are you here? I'm warning you, this is our family matter. You're an outsider, so it's none of your business!”
“Do you want to get lost now or wait for the police to get here?” Jared asked coldly.
“Y-You brat! Do you know who | am? I'm Ellen’s uncle, so how dare you behave so impudently toward me!” Not only did Garrett
show his drunken ways, but he also attempted to take advantage of his seniority.
Jared knocked on the door and shouted, “Open the door, Ellen.”

As soon as she heard his voice, she instantly flung the door open, for she was worried that Garrett would hit Jared. At that instance,
Garrett rushed over and attempted to drag her as she unlocked the door. Instantly, Jared tugged Ellen behind him and stood
protectively in front of her. Subsequently, he grabbed hold of Garrett's arms and shoved him aside.
Garrett stumbled backward as his expression turned ugly out of anger. “Huh. How dare you guys lay hands on me! Do you seriously
think | wouldn't be able to do anything to you?”
After saying that, he found a rock on the ground and grabbed it to hit them with it. Ellen’s face turned pale as a sheet upon
noticing his action. “Stop, Garrett!”
Yet, it was a second too late as he had already hit Jared's body. Worried that Garrett would injure Ellen, Jared turned to her and
instructed, “Gather your belongings and get into my car.”
As a result, she hurriedly rushed out of the house with her bag in her hand and noticed that Garrett was in a frenzy under the
streetlight. He grabbed the rock and attempted to hit Jared with it, but Jared easily dodged the attack.
The next second, Garrett shifted his target to Ellen and attempted to strike her with the rock. As soon as Jared caught sight of that,
he lifted his hand to shield her. The rock landed hard on the back of his hand, and she saw the sharp, jagged edges piercing
through him as a streak of blood dripped across his hand under the faint light.
At that point, Jared flared up and kicked Garrett aside before dragging Ellen to head over to the car.
Scrambling up from the ground, Garrett raced after them with the rock in his hand. Indeed, he was out of his mind in a frenzied
state as he raced toward Jared's sports car and smashed it repeatedly. Seeing that, Ellen cowered behind the car door and shielded
her eyes in fear, struggling to even look at him.
Soon, Jared entered the driver's seat and started the ignition before stepping on the accelerator to leave. Behind them, Garrett
cursed at them, “Don’t go, you brats!”
At that moment, Ellen's face was as pale as a sheet. She looked at Jared's injured hand, and tears began streaming down her face.
It pained her to see him wounded. “Your hand... I'm sorry. You got injured all because of me.”
“I'm fine. It's nothing major.” He was thankful that he arrived in time. Had he not turned up, the outcwould have been horrible
once Garrett smashed the door open.
Still, Ellen felt extremely guilty about it. At that moment, she remained frightened due to the shock, and her body trembled
uncontrollably.
“Do you have anywhere you can go?” asked Jared.
She shook her head as tears welled up in her eyes. “No.”

“You can cover to my place.” He offered without hesitation.
Surprised, Ellen looked at him in disbelief, “Your place?”
“I've got plenty of spare rooms, so feel free to stay a night.” He was genuinely worried about her. If her impoverished, nasty
relatives found her, she would not be able to get away from being sought revenge.
“Would that be appropriate?” She was worried she would disrupt his life.
Jared glanced at her. “I live alone. It's all good.”
At that point, Ellen blushed before adding, “Do you have a girlfriend? That wouldn't be appropriate, would it?”
He instantly replied, “I'm single.”
To that, she was momentarily silent. | can’t believe I've discovered our big boss’ relationship status! He's so handsome, yet he's
still single? That is too shocking. A man with his looks and figure should not be single. | wouldn't be surprised at all if he had ten
girlfriends.
“Okay. I'll stay the night. Tomorrow, I'll start looking for a place.” She had no other option but to stay at his place for the night
unabashedly.
