Chapter 87 The Wife Behaves Strangely Around Us

• Jared was walking with Mr. Ellison, face expressionless. A hazy fog seemed to cloud his upturned eyes, making it impossible for people to guess what he was thinking. Unlike Harvey’s bright personality, Jared was like the spring snow of March, ultimately cold and forbiddingly charming. The surrounding students looked at him and became quiet involuntarily as if any extra would be blasphemy. Mr. Ellison also noticed the changes in the students and glanced at Jared, who seemed to dislike being watched like a monkey, and whose faint smile had disappeared from his face. Mr. Ellison frowned and said, “Let us go to Zone B.” Jared narrowed his eyes as he noticed that there was no one on the sports ground anymore. There was no point in staying here to listen to these annoying noises. His black eyelashes flicked. When he looked up again, he let out a faint smile. “I think that is all for today. Max will follow up with you.” Mr. Ellison still wanted to say something, but when he saw Jared’s face, he had no choice but to nod his head. “Okay, let me see you out, Mr. Johnston.” Jared nodded gently. His gaze fell on Harvey, and the two of them looked at each other silently for a few seconds before Jared turned around and left.
• Harvey clenched his fists as he watched Jared leaving. Jared’s eyes looked frosty and elitist just now. This guy knew him, but he disregarded him. When thinking of this, a dark and displeased look flashed in his eyes. Edwin Bradford, Harvey’s buddy, saw that he was not happy, came to his side, and whispered, “That guy was looking at you when he left. Do you know him?” Harvey glanced back at Edwin, his tone as gentle as ever as he said, “Yeah, he is the heir to the Johnston Group. You had better not mess with him.” Edwin looked at him in puzzlement. “Johnston Group?” Harvey looked at him and smiled without saying a word. Edwin’s face changed. Just as he wanted to say something aloud, he came to his senses and lowered his voice. “The all-powerful Johnston Group?” The Johnston family owned the Johnston Group. They were involved in the military, political, and business circles and could be said to be the most connected family in San Joto. If it was he who had returned, there would be a major storm coming to San Joto. Harvey said not a word but just nodded gently.
• Edwin was stunned. “Hasn’t he been abroad all the time? Why is he back?” Everyone knew that San Joto’s top magnate, the Johnston family, had a rebellious heir five years ago. He gave up the helm at the Johnson Group that his grandfather left for him, went abroad to carve his own path, and even eventually established his own business empire. His company, JJ Johnston Group, was now one of the largest in the world, no smaller than Johnston Group of San Joto. Edwin could not think of why Jared wanted to return when he was doing so well abroad. He would not be as free working in Johnston Group as he was abroad. “I don’t understand either.” Harvey’s eyes darkened. Edwin scratched his head. He would have to ask his father back home then. Just as Edwin froze in place in a daze, Harvey had already left. When he snapped back from his thoughts, he called out, “Hey, wait for me. I have something more to say!” But Harvey had gone far. Edwin did not need to be a rocket scientist to know that Harvey was going to look for Snow.
