Heartstrings On Fire

Chapter 496

Jared wasn’t an ordinary person, he despised it when people tried to flatter him.

He’s got this deep, steady thing going on and his eyes, they look like they can see night through you.

A kid’s flattery wouldn’t do anything to him.

But then, when Leo turned his head by chance, he saw a genuine smile on Jared’s face.

Leo was gobsmacked

It’s been a long time since he’s seen Jared smile like that.

Four years, give or take.

Ever since Ms. Pritchard went missing, Jared’s been sporting a poker face.

Who’d have thought that a kid’s innocent flattery would get the big boss to crack a smile?

Leo could tell, the boss seemed to like this little kid a lot

Jared asked, “Why were those folks chasing you yesterday?”

The kid coolly replied, “Sorry, sir, but it’s best if you know less.”

Leo felt a weird vibe from the kid, he wasn’t just some ordinary kid, you could tell from the way he talked.
