The Legendary Man Chapter 1003-Jonathan was frozen in shock after hearing that.
He had always assumed that Jay hurt Sophia because he was a pervert.
He was also worried that Jay might have violated Sophia, but he didn’t dare ask about it as he was scared of getting an unpleasant answer.
It wasn’t until he heard Jay’s confession that he realized Jay only hurt Sophia because he was angry with her.
Jay let out a wry chuckle as he leaned against the couch.
“My grandpa had that same exact look on his face when he found out about my sexuality. I know you guys will probably never understand me, so I had never expected anyone to understand me either. Even so, I don’t understand this at all! I agreed to marry Lauryn even though I have no interest in women, so why did he take away my position as heir? I absolutely refuse to accept this! It’s about time the Osborne family had a new leader. These old people should just take a break and let the young ones run things!”
Jonathan had an amused look on his face after hearing Jay’s rant.
Lauryn had told Jonathan that she was trying to avoid the arranged marriage when she willingly got herself into Edenic Heights as a hostage. She even expressed her dissatisfaction with the marriage arrangement.
At first, Jonathan assumed that Lauryn only said that to get close to him.
However, as it turned out, Lauryn actually did it to save herself from marrying into Jay’s terrifying family.
While she would be able to live a life of luxury, she would surely suffer a lot at their hands as well.
Jonathan had wanted to say something to comfort Jay, but he couldn’t seem to find the right words.
Eventually, he simply turned around and sat down in front of Jay without saying anything.
As Jay removed the dagger from his arm and jammed it into the table, his wound bled even more profusely.
“Jonathan, what do you need me to do in order to have you believe me?”
“Oh, I believe you now!” Jonathan replied with a wave.
Even if Jay has lost his position as heir, he is still the eldest grandson of the Osborne family. I may not have come from a respectable family, but I take great pride in my family background as well. A man’s honor matters more to him than anything. Jay would never humiliate himself just to make me help him, so I’ll believe his story.
With that in mind, he added, “I promise to keep your secret, Jay. After all, it has nothing to do with our identities. If I were to kill you, I would definitely do so in an honorable fashion. I will never resort to underhanded methods.”
Jay nodded in response. “Thanks.”
