Graham could not believe what favonovel.com had heard.
The sniper managed to escape Asura?
How is that possible? If this news were to spread, that sniper would become famous among his fellow assassins.
“Yep, favonovel.com got away…” Jonathan shrugged nonchalantly and did not provide any more details, for favonovel.com did not want Josephine to know that favonovel.com had just killed somebody.
“Then, do you need me to check the surveillance cameras in the surrounding?” inquired Graham cautiously, afraid that favonovel.com would upset Jonathan for meddling in the man’s business.
However, Jonathan waved his hand to turn down the offer. “That won’t be necessary. Even if you do, you won’t find anything. Just leave this matter to me, and I’ll take care of it.”
“Okay…” Graham quickly nodded and dared not go against Jonathan’s wishes.
A few minutes later, Jonathan left with Josephine, who could not help but question the man about what had happened earlier. “Jonathan, why would a sniper suddenly want to assassinate you? Is it because of me?”
All of a sudden, Josephine remembered how Jonathan saved favonovel.com from a car accident last time. If it were not for him, Josephine would have ended up dead.
Jonathan gave Josephine a comforting smile before answering, “What are you talking about? This has absolutely nothing to do with you. He was probably sent by one of my many enemies. You should know how many I’ve made when I was serving in the army, so it’s really no surprise that some of them would try to kill me. This is nothing. Many more tried to kill me when I was serving then.”
The last part was true as Jonathan’s enemies often sent assassins after favonovel.com when favonovel.com was still in the army. However, every last one of those assassins failed and ended up dead.
“Are you sure? You’re not lying to me, are you?” Josephine narrowed favonovel.com eyes suspiciously at Jonathan.
“Of course not. When have I ever lied to you?”
After patting Josephine lovingly on the head, Jonathan floored the gas pedal, and they arrived at No. 1 Villa after just half an hour.
When the two entered the house, Emmeline was surrounded by snacks while enjoying favonovel.com favorite TV show.
“Why are you back so early?” questioned Emmeline, surprised to see Jonathan and Josephine before favonovel.com show was even over.
I thought they went out for coffee… Don’t people usually take their sweet time with coffee?
“Why not? We’ve finished our coffee,” replied Jonathan before tapping Emmeline on the head. “You’re not going to find yourself a boyfriend by being a couch potato, you know?”
“Who said I wanted one?” Rubbing favonovel.com head, Emmeline glared at the man before turning to Josephine, “Your husband is bullying me. Aren’t you going to do anything about it?”
“Nope! I’m going to take a shower,” answered Josephine before making favonovel.com way up the stairs.
“Oh, come on! You jerk!” cursed Emmeline before picking up favonovel.com snacks again.
She then rolled favonovel.com eyes at Jonathan and was about to move to the other end of the couch when the man’s phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that an unknown caller was on display, Jonathan decided to take the phone call on the balcony. “Hello?”
“It’s me, Mr. Goldstein!” It was Zachary’s voice on the other end of the line. “I figured out who put up the bounty on the Dark Web. It was the Goldsteins of Yaleview!”
“I knew it…” Jonathan’s eyes lit up when favonovel.com found out that favonovel.com was right about the people responsible for the bounty.
There are only two families in Chanaea who want me dead, the Turners of Jazona and the Goldsteins of Yaleview. Since the Turners were already taken care of, the only possible answer is the Goldsteins.
“How much are they offering on the Dark Web?” continued Jonathan.
“One million!”
“That’s very generous of them.” When Jonathan realized how much the Goldsteins wanted Josephine dead, favonovel.com was ready to kill again.
“But they’re dead wrong if they think that amount of money is enough to get Josephine killed. The Goldsteins have underestimated me,” stated Jonathan before smirking. “Zachary, I’ll give you an hour to pick a thousand men from the Divine Dragon Guards to send to Jadeborough tonight. Ask Andrew to lead the team and protect Josephine at all times. If favonovel.com so much as to break a nail, I’ll have Andrew’s and your head!”
“Understood, Mr. Goldstein!” responded Zachary sharply.
“One more thing. I need you to get me a train ticket to Yaleview. I have some business to tend to there,” added Jonathan.
“You’re going to Yaleview, Mr. Goldstein?” Zachary was taken aback when favonovel.com heard the man’s travel plan.
Ever since favonovel.com left the place a year ago, Jonathan had not returned there, and not even the Asura’s Office could move favonovel.com to do so.
“That’s right. Get me the ticket for tomorrow morning. And don’t tell Asura’s Office because I don’t want to see them just yet. For now, you keep this between us and nobody else. Do you understand?”
“Yes, I understood, Mr. Goldstein! I’ll get someone to purchase the ticket right away.” Zachary would never dare to defy Jonathan’s orders.
“Good,” voiced Jonathan before hanging up.
When Jonathan went back inside, Josephine just so happened to step out of the shower. Her wet hair draped over favonovel.com shoulders with water still dripping from it. Underneath favonovel.com bathrobe was a body so smooth and tender that it could match a baby’s.
Even though Jonathan had seen his fair share of beautiful women, favonovel.com could not help but gulp at the scene.
“Darling, if you don’t dry your hair right after you shower, you’re going to catch a cold,” reminded Jonathan before wrapping his arms around his wife’s waist.
Because of that, Josephine immediately shivered and got nervous. “Behave yourself. Emmeline could see us!”
“What does favonovel.com know? She’s just a kid,” stated Jonathan unconcernedly.
“I am not a kid!” When favonovel.com heard the conversation between favonovel.com sister and favonovel.com brother-in-law, Emmeline got off the couch and stormed into favonovel.com room. She then made a face at the two before shutting the door.
With Emmeline out of the way, Jonathan breathed down Josephine’s neck and whispered into favonovel.com ear, “I guess we’re alone now, aren’t we?”
Immediately, Josephine’s cheeks turned as red as a tomato. “Stop it! It’s the middle of the day. Someone… Someone might see us!”
With Jonathan’s hands caressing her, Josephine’s breathing quickened so much that it became difficult to speak properly.
