Chapter 237: They Are Well Matched

Jared immediately straightened up, shedding his earlier weak demeanor. He took Tina's hand and followed Jasper Reed into the Reed family car. Before leaving, he didn't forget to instruct Hayden, who was left behind, "Make sure Courtney is settled in, and be careful of GTO coming back."

Hayden glanced at Courtney and nodded. Courtney exchanged a look with Tina but said nothing more.

Once Tina and Jared were in Jasper Reed's car, she asked Jared with amusement, "Your back doesn't hurt anymore?"

Jared immediately hunched over slightly, clutching his left side with a fragile expression. Leaning against the seat, he looked at Tina with a pitiful gaze that seemed almost tearful.

Tina felt a shiver run down her spine. She thought that if Jasper Reed weren't sitting nearby watching them like a hawk, Jared might have leaned into her arms to act spoiled. Imagining such an unbearable scene made Tina shudder uncontrollably.

Jasper Reed, sitting next to Tina, had been observing the interaction between the couple. Watching Jared use his eyes to act spoiled toward Tina, he inwardly scoffed with disdain. Such affectation was just a tactic to deceive his daughter. Although Natalie had chosen him, it had been ten years since her passing. Ten years ago, Jared had been a gentle and refined young man. Back then, Jasper Reed had thought highly of him.

He had even thought that if he ever had a daughter, she would marry Jared in the future.

Now, many years had passed, and people change. Just by looking at Jared's demeanor, he was no longer the same young man from back then. For Tina's future happiness, Jasper Reed felt he needed to scrutinize Jared carefully. This was why he had so readily agreed to let Jared accompany Tina back to the Reed family; it was easiest to observe him up close.
