Another day passed.
With the help of the pills and herbs, Hailey was almost healed.
She went to Jared to thank him.
"Thank you so much for your help. I need to leave now as my parents must be worried about me," she told Jared.
"Do you need me to send you back home?" Jared asked.
He only said that as he wanted to know where Hailey came from and her identity.
Nevertheless, he was afraid that she would get upset and didn't ask the questions out loud directly.
Hailey shook her head. "No need. I know you're curious about my identity, but I can't reveal it to you. I can let you know my name, though. I'm Hailey Hargreaves. What is your name?"
"I'm Jared Chance," Jared introduced himself with a smile.
"Okay, I shall keep that in mind. If the chance arises, I'll repay your kindness one day."
With that, Hailey fished out a sparkling gem from her pocket and handed it to Jared.
"I've had this since I was a kid. Here, take this as a token of my gratitude!" she said and gave the gem to Jared.
Jared initially wanted to reject her gift, but the gem didn't look like it was unique or expensive, so he accepted it readily.
He had no idea that this gem would save his life in the near future.
"Come on. I'll walk you out of Jadeborough."
Jared was pretty sure by now that Hailey wasn't from Jadeborough.
Hailey nodded. She followed Jared out of the Deragon residence and strolled along the streets of Jadeborough.
An indescribable feeling rose in Hailey's heart when she observed the bustling city.
