Jared fixed his gaze on Jessica. However, he could see the sincerity in her eyes and noticed that she wasn't lying to him.
“You said you can save my girlfriend and that you know a secret that I don't. What exactly is it?” he asked.
“Mr. Chance, forgive me, but I can't tell you right now. I'll only let you in on the secret when we are on the same page.” Jessica shook her head.
“You've said so much to convince me, yet it all seems like nonsense in the end. How do you expect me to believe Demon Sect is strong enough?” Jared goaded her when he saw that she would not reveal the secret.
Jessica grinned. Instead of getting mad, she exposed Jared's tactic to goad her into telling the secret by saying, “Mr. Chance, you don't need to try and goad me. I'll let you in on a different secret to show our sincerity. You're trying your best to save your girlfriend, but in reality, the image you see of her is but a projection. Even if you found a way to open the doors, she would never be able to leave the dungeon! The moment she leaves the arcane array, her body would immediately dissipate as her physical form is not in that dungeon.”
Jared was taken aback by her words.
“No. That's impossible. I've met Josephine several times. Her aura and everything else seemed so real. How can she be a projection? Don't take me for a fool. I believe in my instincts. It's definitely not fake... If it was fake, why didn't Josephine tell me? It can't be fake.” Jared shook his head, refusing to believe what Jessica had said.
Jessica smirked. “I've said what I need to say. It's up to you to believe me or not. As for the partnership with Demon Sect, I hope you can give it some thought, Mr. Chance.”
Upon finishing her sentence, she turned to leave the room. Just as she opened the door, she saw Flaxseed standing outside and almost bumped into him.
Immediately after Jessica exited the room, Flaxseed's gaze traveled down to her thighs as he greedily breathed in her delicious scent.
Jessica rolled her eyes at Flaxseed's lecherous behavior. If I weren't here to discuss a partnership with Jared, I would've given this pervert a beating!
Nonetheless, she was surprised by how Flaxseed escaped death during the previous incident. He might be a lustful pervert, but there's no denying how powerful he is.
Jared stepped out of the room when Jessica left with her companions.
