The Legendary Man novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 My Apologies

Has this good-for-nothing lost his mind? Isn’t he aware my husband is the secretary-general?

Shortly after she returned to her senses, Amanda reached for her phone to make a call.

Once the man on the other end picked up the call, she gasped out her complaint, “Darling, someone just slapped me in the face! I need you here with me! Bring along a few of your trusted aides with you!”

The middle-aged man asked with a hoarse voice, “What? Who’s this fool we’re talking about? What’s going on?”

Glaring at Jonathan in the eyes as she carried on with the conversation, she answered the man’s question, “He’s just a son-in-law of an inferior family! If I’m not mistaken, he’s called John or Jonathan!”

Just you wait until my husband’s here! I’ll make sure he tortures you instead of setting you free!

“C-Come again? Can you verify if it’s John or Jonathan?” Henry’s voice started quivering against his will as soon as he found out his wife might’ve offended a powerful figure.

“Why is that any of your business? Darling, aren’t you supposed to express concern over my condition when I’ve been slapped in the face? Does his name even matter?” Amanda queried because of Henry’s sudden change of attitude.

Out of nowhere, Henry raised his volume and repeated his question, “I’m not going to repeat myself anymore! Tell me his name!”

Amanda was slightly taken aback by Henry’s yell as it was evident her husband was enraged. She felt a chill running down her spine and answered in a low voice, “I-I think it’s Jonathan Goldstein.”

Henry, who was on the other end of the call, gasped in silence when he figured out the truth. He asked, “How have you offended him?”

“Are you trying to blame me when you’re supposed to defend me? Hello? I’m the victim of his brutality!”

“Cut the crap and tell me the reason he has slapped you! You’d better tell me the truth without making up any stories! Otherwise, I’m going to chuck you aside when something happens in the future!”

“D-Darling, you’re intimidating me!” Amanda was horrified by the things awaiting her. It turned out Henry had never engaged himself in such a serious conversation with her.

Unwilling to waste his time anymore, the infuriated Henry yelled, “Am I supposed to repeat myself?”

The startled Amanda hesitated no more and blurted out the truth, “Mrs. Harris and a few of us asked the man’s mother-in-law to join us for a game! In the end, we set her up and got our hands on the watch she brought along! It would cost a little more than ten million, but we managed to get it at fifty thousand because she wasn’t aware of the actual value!”

“You and the likes of you need to learn your lesson, but I’ll put that aside until we get home!”

Henry urged shortly after he warned Amanda to mind her behaviors, “I want you to get down your knees and beg for his mercy until he forgives you! Also, return him the watch at once! Otherwise, you are no longer my wife from now onwards!”

What? Is he seriously asking me to grovel myself at this loser’s mercy when he’s just a good-for-nothing piece of trash? I’m the freaking wife of the secretary-general!

Just as she was about to say something else, Henry interrupted her and instructed, “I want you to hand Mr. Goldstein the phone now!”
