Chapter 339

Lyana turned around stiffly with a gentle smile on her face. However, it did not match what she had just said.

"Jared, you and I are a match. We're of the same social ranks. I know you have some good friends outside, but there is no reason to get angry over her."

In Lyana's eyes, Nicole is just Jared's plaything. That is why she dared call her out in front of him.

Nicole found Lyana funny. 'A match? Same social ranks?'

Jared smiled at the sound of that. For a moment, it seemed like thousands of flowers were blooming in front of Lyana's eyes. However, his pupils darkened the next second. His voice was cold and sharp," Lyana, if you're too comfortable in your position, I don't mind letting you step down and take a rest."

Lyana stared at him as he said that. His words cut through her like a blade. Although his tone was not harsh, she knew that he was serious.

She could not help but shudder at the thought of what the third household of the Rogers family had gone through after offending the Johnston family.

Jared noticed Nicole's eyes upon him. He turned to look at her, and the coldness from his face dissipated. "GO," he said softly. Nicole nodded, turned away, and continued walking into the family home. She was relieved that she did not have to deal with Lyana's nonsense.

Lyana's eyes redden with anger when she saw how protective Jared was of Nicole. She glared at her back angrily. It was as if she wanted to burn a hole in her back with her glare.

Though, when Jared turned to face her, she slowly lowered her head in fear. His eyes were dull, but there was something unmistakable in his gaze.

"Do some self-reflection when you go home. Don't let me hear those words again."

"Otherwise, you know the consequences."

He walked towards his car after he said that. Claus stood there and looked at Lyana's pale face with a mocking yet pitiful gaze. 'Master Jared is a devil to everyone other than Miss Riddle. How idiotic of Lyana to speak of her like that.'

At the same time, Claus' eyes darkened at the thought of Lyana's words. 'Master Jared couldn't bear hearing someone speak ill of Miss Riddle. But what Lyana had said to him had a clear meaning. Only someone of the same social rank as him can be his wife.'

Claus was reminded that no matter how exceptional Nicole was, her family background would not allow her to be married to Jared.

He sighed as he thought of his master's attitude. 'Life's hard for someone who must worry about everything his master does!'

Lyana stood there embarrassed. It was as if she was naked in front of everyone. She was humiliated by someone she loved in front of people that she treated like ants.

She made a mental note to get back at Nicole for all this. 'That b*tch! First, she stole Jared away. Now, she's instigated him to treat me this way?!'

'It's just a phase. When Jared gets tired of this woman, he'll definitely stay by my side!'
