Astounded, Rhino had no choice but to trudge forward as instructed.

"Get down on your f*cking knees and apologize to Mr. Chance!" Felix landed a kick on Rhino.

Thud!

With that, Rhino dropped to his knees in front of Jared.

"Enough, you can drop the act. Before Steven conies back with his master, I won't do anything to your gang. Unless, if you get on my nerves.

Jared was well aware that Felix was just pretending to be respectful.

After all, he had become the Crimson Dragon Gang's mortal enemy ever since he defeated Steven. Therefore, there was no way Felix would sincerely respect him.

Just as he finished, Jared got up to leave. A cold glint glistened in Felix's eye as he watch Jared's silhouette disappear.

"M-Mr. Lawson, who is he?" Rhino asked curiously as he got back to his feet after Jared left.

Slap!

Suddenly, Felix responded with a forceful slap.

"Let me warn you, the next time you see him, please stay as far as you can away from him. He was the one who defeated Steven. Hence, you should be counting your lucky stars for not losing your life today." With that, Felix left with his men, leaving Rhino behind trying to recover from the shock.

Meanwhile, back in their neighborhood, Hilda waited anxiously for Jared. As for Yolanda, she had left after sending Hilda home.

"Hilda, why aren't you going in? Who are you waiting for?" Chloe asked when she saw Hilda loitering outside.

"Mom, you should go in first. I'm waiting for Jared," Hilda replied with an anxious

expression.

"What happened to Jared? Why didn't both of you come home together?" Chloe asked when she saw how worried Hilda was.

"He..." Hilda was suddenly tongue-tied, as she didn't know how to explain to her mother.

"Hilda, where's Jared? Aren't you both supposed to come back together?"

At that moment, Hannah and Gary came out of the house.

When she saw Jared's parents, Hilda didn't want them to worry. Hence, she quickly made an excuse. "He's busy with work so he will be a little late."

"What is he doing? It's already past office hours. How can there be so much work to do?" Hannah grumbled.

"Mrs. Chance, you should go back in first. I can wait for him here."

Hilda urged them to go back in, as she didn't know when Jared would be back or if he could even make it home.

"We were planning to give both of you a surprise, but Jared still isn't back even though it is so late," Hannah commented with a sigh.

"Surprise?" Hilda was stunned.

Chloe quickly explained, "Since taking public transport to work is inconvenient for both of you, Mr. Chance has bought a car to make your lives easier. We planned to surprise Jared, but he is still not back." "Mrs. Wallace, you paid for the car too. Therefore, it's considered a gift from both families to the children," Hannah added right away.

"I only contributed a few thousand which isn't significant. You guys paid for all the rest," Chloe commented with a smile.

"This car is for both of them to start off.

Once they have settled into their jobs, they can buy their own. Now that we're old, this is all the help we can give," Gary explained.

"That's very true. Going forward, we will have to rely on both of them," Chloe agreed with a nod.

Having heard their conversation, Hilda blushed in response. It felt as if both parents were treating them as a couple which was something Hilda didn't object to.

After spending a lot of time with Jared recently, Hilda noticed that she had developed feelings for him.
