The Man's Decree novel Chapter 639

Chapter 639 A Challenge

Josephine shook her head. “I’m not afraid of hardships. I want to be someone useful so you won’t have to worry about me.”

Gently, Jared pulled Josephine into his arms. His gaze was affectionate, and Josephine leaned into his embrace to enjoy the moment.

Envy rose in Lizbeth’s heart as she gazed at the sweet couple. In the end, she joked, “All right. Obviously, you don’t think of me as an outsider with your PDA…”

Hearing that, Josephine hastily wiggled out of Jared’s arms.

“I don’t think of you as an outsider. If you’re jealous, you’re welcome to hug Jared and feel it for yourself,” Josephine answered cheerfully.

“I won’t do that!” Lizbeth retorted as a blush crept up her cheeks.

Although she wanted to feel what it was like to be in Jared’s arms, she knew it wasn’t right to do so.

Every time Lizbeth recalled how Jared had hugged her naked body back in Summerbank, she thought that his warm chest was the safest place in the world.

Jared glanced at both ladies as an evil thought popped up in his mind. If both ladies leaped into my arms, it would feel amazing to hug them both together, wouldn’t it?

It was normal for Jared to have that thought, for he was a man. Besides, Josephine had been joking that both ladies could take care of Jared together, so he suddenly got that idea.

However, that was merely a fleeting thought. He quickly sat back down on the couch to hide his embarrassment.

“Jared, Tessa has delivered the stones you need. They are piled up in the garden. Did you see them?” Josephine asked.
