Chapter 83 Jonathan Is More Fearsome 

Jonathan, more fearsome than any demon, always prioritized the family’s honor and interests, even if it meant sacrificing a few individuals.

Maintaining connections with the Sanders Family meant the engagement couldn’t be called 

off. 

Upon hearing this, Zacharias‘ handsome face darkened. Joseph considered things more comprehensively and took the overall situation into account. 

Joseph reassured him, “Alright, don’t fret. Head to the office, and I’ll check on you later. Why have you been coughing so severely lately?” 

He recalled that although Zacharias had coughed before, it hadn’t been this severe. 

Joseph furrowed his brow. “How are the servants attending to you? If it’s not satisfactory, I’ll make a change and find someone more attentive.” 

Zacharias had always been frail, with a weak heart and a history of various illnesses since childhood. There were even times when he was on the verge of death, and it caused his parents countless sleepless nights. 

In recent years, his health had somewhat improved thanks to careful adjustments. 

Zacharias waved his hand dismissively. “It’s not because of the servants. Before, Angela took charge of my diet. She cooked medicinal meals every day. But after Angela left, the medicinal meals stopped. When I asked the kitchen staff, I found out Angela personally made them…” 

He paused, feeling a twinge of unease. 

Whenever Angela brought him those medicinal meals, he’d get annoyed. She not only insisted he eat them daily but also pestered him with reminders. Her demeanor was almost like an old lady. 

Often, it was only with Fanny’s reassurance that he managed to finish his meal. 

So, he warned Angela to stay out of his room, and Fanny began delivering the nightly medicinal meals instead. 

Gradually, he began to credit Fanny for the meals and forgot they were made by Angela. 

For a moment, a mix of emotions flickered in Zacharias‘ dark eyes.

On the first floor of the hospital, near the elevator, was Christopher holding Fanny’s hand. They stepped out of the elevator, only to be surprised by the sight of a man in a wheelchair waiting at the entrance. 

Jonathan’s cool gaze met Christopher’s, then shifted to Fanny beside him. 

In Jonathan’s presence, Christopher always felt a palpable tension, and his breaths became. 

harder. 

He immediately straightened his back, respectfully nodded, and took the initiative to greet, 

“Mr. Lawson.” 

Then he squeezed Fanny’s hand and nervously said, “This is Fanny. Fanny, meet Mr. Lawson.” 

For the first time, Christopher introduced Fanny as his fiancée to the Sanders Family. 

Fanny instinctively composed herself and offered a graceful smile as she greeted, “Mr. Lawson.” 

She couldn’t help but wonder why Christopher showed such deference to Jonathan, even more than to his father, Michael. 

Although Jonathan is in power now, he is crippled and sick. He’s dying, right? The future of the Sanders and Lawson Families rests with Christopher! Fanny mused. 

Nevertheless, gratitude was owed. Jonathan had tirelessly assisted Christopher in managing the company. 

Jonathan glanced away, his demeanor indifferent. “Once Miss Fanny becomes part of the Sander family, then you can call me ‘Mr. Lawson. Your father addresses me as Mr. Lawson, and you want to call me Lawson? Is that appropriate?” 

His voice, deep and resonant, carried a hint of disdain 

Fanny was taken aback, and her face paled. She was already engaged to Christopher, yet. Jonathan was showing such disrespect. 

Fanny nervously bit her lip, unsure how to address him. If her father called him Mr. Lawson, what should she call him? Jonathan was intentionally causing trouble for her. 

Meanwhile, Jonathan appeared oblivious as his black coat accentuated his cold and aloof demeanor.

“Mr. Lawson, Fanny is just shy. If you have any grievances, take them up with me. It was my decision to marry her, Christopher quickly interjected upon seeing, Fanny being harassed. “And I’ve already apologized to Angela 

Jonathan spoke again, “Alright, go home and kneel in front of the ancestral hall for three hours. Inform your Grandfather about what I said” 

Christopher’s expression tightened, and his jaw clenched as he reluctantly agreed, 

Fanny was stunned, and her eyes widened in disbelief. She retorted icily, “Who do you think you are, Jonathan, from another father? What gives you the right to punish Christopher? What did he do wrong?” 

Jonathan’s gaze remained unwavering, “Make it four hours” 

“Are you out of your mind?” 

“Fanny, enough!” Christopher’s voice was sharp as he scolded her sternly. “You’re not allowed to speak to him like that.” 

Fanny’s face turned pale again, and tears welled up in her eyes. 

Why was Christopher being so harsh on her? She was only trying to help him! 

Seeing her distressed state, Christopher softened a bit. He turned away from her and addressed Jonathan, “Mr. Lawson, Fanny is young and inexperienced. Please don’t blame her.” 

Jonathan’s voice was cold as he responded, “When have you seen me lose my temper over trivial matters? When I’m discussing matters with Christopher, it’s not your place, as an outsider, to interfere in the Sanders Family’s affairs.” 

Fanny clenched her fists. The earlier joy had evaporated from her face. 

Remembering past encounters, Christopher dared not speak and only offered a sympathetic glance to Fanny. 

Then, a single sentence from Jonathan drained all color from Fanny’s face, replacing it with fear.
