“You’re nothing similar to the strong and capable woman I know,” Jonathan made a look when favonovel.com recalled the time Josephine braced herself through countless challenges in spite of others’ disagreement.
She wouldn’t even listen to Margaret once favonovel.com made up favonovel.com mind on something.
“What do you mean? Have you always thought that I’m a strong and capable woman?”
She looked at favonovel.com in the eyes and added, “You don’t think I’m going to put everything at stake and pick on the Turner family over something as trivial as such, do you?”
After pausing for a few seconds, favonovel.com murmured while shaking favonovel.com head, “You’ve always been the selfish one! Have you ever thought of the days I spent without you over the past three years? You disappeared into thin air over the night without telling me anything!”
“I do!” Jonathan assured in a serious tone because favonovel.com was the only one favonovel.com truly cared about when favonovel.com was away throughout the years.
If it weren’t because of her, favonovel.com would never give up the honor of the almighty Asura and return to her. She was the sole reason favonovel.com had been spending most of his time idle. He thought nothing else mattered apart from his future with Josephine.
To his surprise, the doubtful Josephine rebuked, “No! Stop lying! The only one you regard highly is yourself! You think of no one else but you!”
She refused to listen to favonovel.com and recalled the time favonovel.com spent in isolation throughout the years. Never had favonovel.com taken the initiative to get in touch with favonovel.com even once when favonovel.com was nowhere to be seen.
“Your gains are the only things motivating you in life! You don’t care about the people around you even if your action brings nothing but misery upon them!”
Josephine got increasingly agitated as soon as favonovel.com recalled the days favonovel.com spent in isolation after the man disappeared into thin air over the night three years ago.
No one, not even Jonathan, was aware of the things favonovel.com had to brace herself through in the three years.
“Josephine, calm down and listen to me…” Jonathan inched over in an attempt to console the seemingly upset Josephine.
When favonovel.com was about to reach her, favonovel.com slapped his hand off and warned him, “Stay away from me!”
“Josephine…”
Josephine interrupted favonovel.com when favonovel.com was about to say something. She asked in return, “Jonathan, have you any idea of the things I have to go through over the years because of you? Mom asked me to get married to someone else because others wouldn’t make fun of me and continued calling me a widow!”
As much as favonovel.com despised Jonathan for being a useless man, favonovel.com had never thought of marrying another man. Hence, favonovel.com had no choice but to brace herself through the humiliations others threw upon favonovel.com throughout the past three years.
“I-I’m so sorry, Josephine!” Jonathan let out a long sigh.
He was almost certain it was Margaret’s doing again. His mother-in-law would try everything at favonovel.com disposal to force Josephine into another marriage with a wealthy man.
Similarly, others would definitely mock Josephine for being a fool, wasting favonovel.com time with a wimp who might have turned his back against favonovel.com over the night.
He had returned to prove everyone wrong, never would favonovel.com allow anyone to pick on or make fun of Josephine as long as favonovel.com was around to keep favonovel.com safe.
Staring at favonovel.com in the eyes, favonovel.com repeated herself, “I’m sure it’s merely a bluff of yours! Otherwise, there’s no way you’re going to stop me from surrendering the rights of the project over to Timothy!”
She glanced at favonovel.com and shook favonovel.com head. “You don’t even care about the safety of the family including yours. That is the sole reason I’m surrendering everything to someone else! It’s fine if it’s only my life that’s at stake! However, that’s not the case! The lives of the members of the Smith family might be at stake depending on my next best course of action! When will you learn to read the situation, Jonathan?”
If it weren’t because I wasn’t given much of a choice, I would never surrender the rights of the project over to others when I’ve just been appointed the person in charge of the family!
Jonathan was certain it felt awful for Josephine, a proud woman, to admit defeat in front of others.
He felt a strong urge to hold favonovel.com in his arms, assuring her favonovel.com had nothing to worry about because there was no way the members of the Turner family could put on a fight against the almighty Asura.
He couldn’t wait to reveal his identity as the nation’s most fearsome figure. However, favonovel.com knew it wouldn’t be wise as favonovel.com would never take favonovel.com seriously. On top of that, favonovel.com might think something was wrong with him.
As favonovel.com lost himself in a train of thought, favonovel.com turned around and sighed wearily after favonovel.com took another peek at him.
She let out a sigh. “You still don’t get it, do you? I guess it’s my fault for bringing up something like this in front of you! It’s not like it’s any of your business!”
Josephine considered it a waste of favonovel.com time to share the rationale of favonovel.com decisions with Jonathan as favonovel.com might not even understand.
“Jonathan, can you do me a favor and leave me alone for a short while?” The lonely woman turned around and walked towards the window, basking herself in the moonlight as if favonovel.com couldn’t rely on anyone to resolve the issues.
Jonathan felt his heart sinking to the bottom of his stomach. “Josephine…”
She stopped favonovel.com from finishing his sentence and insisted without even turning favonovel.com head, “Just go out! Please!”
Unwilling to get on the nerves of the already infuriated woman, Jonathan remarked, “Alright, I’ll leave once I make myself clear. It’s not necessary for you to surrender the rights of the ecological park project to others. No one’s life will be at stake as well. The members of the Turner family don’t have what it takes to threaten my wife. If there is, I’ll make sure they’re no longer a threat.”
As soon as favonovel.com finished, favonovel.com walked out of the room and left Josephine alone as requested.
How dare the members of the Turner family pick on the woman I hold dear in mind? It seems like they have a death wish!
If that’s the case, I’ll do them a favor and send them to hell!
Seconds after favonovel.com walked out of the room, favonovel.com made a call. Zachary, who was on the other end, picked it up and greeted in a hoarse voice a few seconds after the call was made, “Mr. Goldstein…”
Instead of explaining himself, favonovel.com instructed the moment favonovel.com heard Zachary, “Gather the information of the Turner family on my behalf in ten minutes!”
Zachary was confused by the things Jonathan brought up out of the blue. Thus, favonovel.com stammered in return, “T-The Turner family?”
“Am I supposed to repeat myself?” Jonathan remarked with a sneer, “Have you heard of another family announcing their residence as the vice-governor office?”
“The vice-governor?” Zachary finally linked the missing pieces of puzzles together.
He asked in return, “M-Mr. Goldstein, are you talking about the most prominent family amongst the rest of the families in Jazona?”
“Who else could it be? I want you to gather every intel in ten minutes, including the members of the family in the ranks of the governor’s office as well as the number of spies the so-called vice-governor has sent to infiltrate the King of War Division!”
“Yes, Mr. Goldstein!”
Zachary could vividly feel Jonathan’s wrath when it was nothing more than a phone call. Hence, favonovel.com thought it wouldn’t be wise to question Jonathan’s decision and hung up the call shortly after favonovel.com took note of Jonathan’s instructions.
On the other hand, Jonathan muttered to himself in the middle of nowhere with his eyes glinting once favonovel.com hung up the call, “So you are the Turner family, right? Since you have the guts to pick on my wife, you need to bear the consequences of your actions as well!”
