The Mans Decree
Chapter 3979

“Since you don’t know it, forget it!” Seeing that Juliet wasn’t aware of the technique, Jared could only hope for a chance to meet with Gael.

“Don’t you have any other requests?”

Seeing that Jared seemed quite dejected, Juliet thus asked.

She was a rare beauty, yet when she allowed Jared to name his terms, he astonishingly only requested the fire fusion technique, seemingly disregarding all else.

Could it be that my charm isn’t enough?

“No. What else could I possibly ask for?”

Jared shook his head.

At that, Juliet’s expression darkened slightly. If Jared were to admire her beauty and make certain requests pertaining to her physique, Juliet wouldn’t be upset. On the contrary, she would be pleased because it would mean she was attractive.

Yet now, Jared didn’t even mention it, which led Juliet to start doubting her own charm. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Seeing Jared not making any other demands, Judd was almost driven to desperation. If it were him, he would have boldly asked Juliet to undress!

“Ms. Ortiz, there’s something else I need to discuss with you…”

Seeing the situation, Dario quickly changed the subject.

“Mr. Barclay, has something else happened?” Juliet asked.

Dario nodded. “Mr. Moreau was locked up for contradicting Harlan and is set to be imprisoned for thirty years.”

“What? Imprisoned for thirty years?” Juliet was taken aback. “Harlan is going too far. He’s merely the acting sect leader, yet he’s behaving so outrageously!”

“Also, Berthold has returned. Ms. Ortiz, you need to be careful!” Dario urged.

Juliet’s brows furrowed. “I can’t believe that guy had the audacity to return. If I see him, I’ll definitely kill him…”

“Ms. Ortiz, you must endure. Otherwise, there will be no hope left for our Violet Flame Sect. Right now, what’s most important is that you need to intensify your training. Once you break through Ultimate Realm, we can ask Mr. Cunningham to open Divine Flame Mountain. Once we obtain the Divine Flame Seal, you’ll be able to become the sect leader. Harlan has been wanting to open Divine Flame Mountain as well. He has approached Mr. Cunningham several times, but Mr. Cunningham has consistently declined. Now that Mr. Ortiz is ill, he’s constantly not in his right mind. The only way Mr. Cunningham will be permitted to activate Divine Flame Mountain is if the proposal was unanimously approved by all the elders. But don’t worry, Ms. Ortiz. Until you reach Ultimate Realm, we won’t agree to open Divine Flame Mountain,” Dario said.

“Mr. Barclay, you all have worked hard, especially Mr. Moreau. Please think of a way and see if you can manage to rescue him. If he were really locked up for thirty years, Mr. Moreau would be completely ruined,” Juliet expressed her concerns with a worried expression.

“We’ll give it our best shot, though it’s likely to be quite challenging!” Dario sighed, then asked, “Ms. Ortiz, have you seen Mr. Ortiz recently? Has his condition improved at all?”

Juliet shook her head. “Harlan has people guarding him closely, and I can only visit my father at set times. But every time I went, he was in a state of madness.”

Upon hearing this, Dario fell silent. This was because every time they visited Gael, it was the same.

He even suspected that Harlan did it on purpose, deliberately arranging their meetings only when Gael was having a relapse.

“Ms. Ortiz, please take good care of yourself. As long as Harlan doesn’t get his hands on the Divine Flame Seal, we still have a fighting chance,” Dario said.

Juliet nodded emphatically, realizing that at this point, their only hope was the Divine Flame Seal.

Dario led Jared and the others away, but Juliet called out to Jared, “Axel, wait a moment. Since I’ve lost, I have to show some form of acknowledgment.”

Jared was left utterly bewildered, unsure of what Juliet intended to do.

Judd wore an expression of envy, yet he was pulled away by Dario.

After Dario and Judd had left, Jared turned to Juliet and asked, “Juliet, what do you intend to do? If you’re thinking of offering yourself, you can forget it. I’m not the type to kick someone when they are down.”
