The Legendary Man novel Chapter 136

Chapter 136 Buzz Off

“What’s this about people hunting you down in the middle of the night? I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Cowering on the ground, Tavion desperately crawled toward the door.

All he wanted to do right then was to make a run for it, not at all interested in risking his life with a nutcase like Jonathan.

He’s just a pauper whose life isn’t even worth a dime, so it doesn’t matter even if he dies. But it’s different with me! With a fortune of a few billion, I’ve got money I can’t ever finish spending in this lifetime and countless women waiting to warm my bed! How could I die?

“You won’t be able to escape, so just save your energy!” Pinning an indifferent gaze on the man crawling on the ground, Jonathan slowly stalked toward him.

From the moment I found out that he conspired with someone else to set me up and bring about my bankruptcy, he was destined to die!

“Stay away from me!” At the sight of the man’s approaching footsteps, a glimmer of panic flashed across Tavion’s eyes. But at just that precise moment, the private room door was suddenly pushed open.

Subsequently, a middle-aged man in a black suit strode in.

“What’s happening here?”

Upon glimpsing Tavion, who was huddled on the ground and crawling toward the door frantically, he recognized him at a single glance. “Mr. Callahan?”

 

“Q-Quick, have someone restrain this lunatic! He wants to kill me!” The moment Tavion caught sight of him, he clutched at his shirt as though he had seen a ray of light at the end of the tunnel.

“A lunatic?” The middle-aged man instinctively lifted his eyes and cast his gaze over. The instant he spotted Jonathan, a flash of surprise flickered in his eyes. “Mr. Goldstein?”

“Get out of my way!” Jonathan threw him a blasé look, scaring him so greatly that he hastily backed up several steps.

“What happened, Mr. Goldstein?” The middle-aged man looked at Jonathan cautiously.

After all, he had personally witnessed how humble the owner of Empyrean Palace, Luna, was in front of the man the last time.

“Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t be asking. Get out!” Jonathan wore a cold expression on his face.

“Understood, Mr. Goldstein!”

Without further ado, the middle-aged man spun on his heels and left as though he had never been there.

Bang!

The private room door was slammed shut once more, causing Tavion’s heart to abruptly sink to rock bottom.

What’s going on here? Why would an employee of Empyrean Palace fear Jonathan? Isn’t he just an impoverished man who went bankrupt and owed a slew of debts a few years ago?

“There’s no need for you to stare at the door. No one in this world can save you!” Jonathan’s remark doused the man’s final spark of hope. As Jonathan drew ever close, Tavion gritted his teeth and fell to his knees before him without another word.

“I’m sorry, Jonathan! I was momentarily blinded by greed back then. I’ve seen the errors of my way, so please give me another chance! You want money, right? I’ll give it to you! If a hundred million isn’t enough, I’ll give you a billion! If even that isn’t sufficient for you, I’ll give you half of Tavion Group, okay?”

Tavion Group has a market value of a few billion, so even if it’s only three billion, that’s at least one and a half billion right there. I only cheated him out of a hundred million back then, so it’s more than enough that I’m returning him one and a half billion now, isn’t it?
