Chapter 119 Bring Them Back
“But—”
Before Tanya could say another word, Jonathan interrupted her. “Don’t worry about it. I guarantee that after today, he will avoid you the next time he sees you.”
“Josephine, please talk him out of it.” Tanya felt so distressed that she was about to cry.
Nick isn’t like Kyson, who is nothing more than a hooligan. His dad is the deputy police chief, for goodness sake. Given how badly beaten up Nick is, his dad is definitely not going to forgive Jonathan.
“Jonathan, when will you ever be more mature and less impulsive?” In response to Tanya’s words, Josephine couldn’t help but furrow her eyebrows.
Even though I, too, feel the urge to slap Nick, what comes after that? Did Jonathan ever consider the consequences of his actions?
“Do you think you can exact revenge on Tanya’s behalf that way? Do you always believe that violence is the solution to every problem?” When she saw the nonchalant look on Jonathan’s face, Josephine was further infuriated. “Yes, you might feel a sense of satisfaction after hitting him. But what happens after the dust has settled? You will be detained at the police station. Have you ever thought about how they are going to teach you a lesson in there?”
“Don’t worry. No one can force me to go to the police station against my will.” Jonathan’s expression was a sea of calm as if he wasn’t bothered at all.
Even the police chief wouldn’t dare arrest me, let alone his deputy. To do so would be to seal their own doom.
“Jonathan, I really don’t understand where you get your courage from.” Josephine was outraged by Jonathan’s words. “Do you think you own the police station? Where you can come and go at your own pleasure?”
“You can put it that way,” Jonathan replied with a slight smile.
If he hadn’t led the Four Asura Guards to bring peace to the nation, Chanaea would still be mired in war, and there would be no police station to speak of.
“What? Who do you think you are?” Josephine was further incensed by Jonathan’s answer. “Asura?”
After all, the only person qualified to talk that way was Asura.
Even the most powerful man in Jazona, Zachary, isn’t qualified to say such things. What makes Jonathan think that he is worthy?
“Josephine, stop quarreling.” When she saw Josephine and Jonathan beginning to argue, Tanya quickly tugged at Josephine’s sleeve. “It’s all my fault. I am the one who brought this upon you.”
“Tanya, I’m not blaming you.”
Josephine couldn’t help but sigh when she saw the guilt on Tanya’s face. “I just don’t like it when he tries to solve everything with his fists.”
After all, she hated those that always saw violence as the solution.
“Josephine, I’m sorry. Jonathan raised his hand because of me. So please, don’t blame him,” Tanya pleaded softly. When Josephine saw the tears in her eyes, she frowned. “Forget it. He has already been beaten. Hence, there’s no point crying over spilled milk. Instead, we should discuss what we should be doing next.”
With that thought in mind, Josephine was in a fix.
How are we going to solve this? Jonathan has beaten up the deputy police chief’s son! If it was just some street thug, we could have easily compensated them. But now, the deputy police chief isn’t going to let this matter slide easily.
“Josephine, both of you should leave quickly. Or else, it’s going to be too late!” When she saw that time was running out, Tanya urged them to escape.
“It is already too late!”
Jonathan saw the whirling red lights from afar. The next moment, a couple of police cars with wailing sirens screeched to a halt in front of them.
The next moment, more than ten members of the Police Tactical Unit surrounded the restaurant with their dogs.
