The Legendary Man novel Chapter 181

Chapter 181 Banished From The Smith Family

An agonizing scream echoed throughout the living hall.

As for the subordinate who was on his knees, his face had gone pale white. Before he could cry out a second time, he was knocked out by Jonathan with another kick.

“I will take the lives of whoever dares to touch a hair on her head.” Taking a step forward, Jonathan stood in front of Josephine. Despite being just one man, he managed to intimidate the rest of the men into keeping their distance.

At that moment, he was like a guardian angel protecting Josephine.

Whoever dared to stand in his way would be annihilated.

“Jonathan, this is a matter of the Smith family!” Hugo was outraged when he saw Jonathan break his subordinate’s leg. “If you continue to stick your nose in, you will suffer the consequences!”

“Suffer the consequences?”

Jonathan let out a smug smile. “I’m keen to see what sort of consequences are you talking about.”

How dare the inconsequential Smith family disrespect me?

If it weren’t for Josephine, he would have destroyed them a long time ago.

“Dad, stop wasting time and just call the police!” Ezra couldn’t tolerate Jonathan’s incessant attempts at interfering with their family’s business anymore.

“There’s no need!”

Snorting, Hugo waved his hand. “Josephine, let me ask you one last time. Are you sure you don’t want to apologize to the Turner family?”

“I am!” Josephine resolved.

“Fine. Since you refuse to do so, I will now banish you from the Smith family!” Hugo’s face grew frosty. “From today onward, you are no longer related to the Smith family in any way. Your fate is no longer tied to us anymore!”

Banish?

Josephine’s entire body trembled when she heard that word. She looked at Hugo in disbelief. “Grandpa, what did you just say? Are you banishing me from the Smith family?”

She couldn’t believe her ears.

In fact, she even thought she had heard wrongly.

Are they banishing me from the family over a threat from the Turners?

“Don’t call me Grandpa! I’m not your grandpa!” Hugo scoffed while giving Josephine the side-eye. “Also, I wouldn’t want a granddaughter that is willing to ruin the family. Josephine, you have two choices. Either come along with me to plead for forgiveness from the Turner family or be banished from the Smith family. From then on, you will be in no way related to us anymore! The choice is yours!”

“I refuse to apologize!” Josephine retorted with a quavering voice and reddened eyes. “I have done no wrong. Hence, they have no right to demand that I admit my mistake. Since you’re forcing me to choose, I will let you know my decision now!”

Raising her head forcefully, Josephine hissed in tears, “I would rather be banished from the Smith family than plead for forgiveness from the Turner family!”

That was how strong Josephine’s resolve was.

She preferred to be thrown out of the family than submit to the Turners.

“Fine. You have made your choice!” Josephine’s decision caused Hugo’s expression to turn grim. “I hereby declare that from now on, Josephine is no longer the chairman of Smith Group, and neither is she a member of the Smith family! From today onward, regardless of whether she lives or dies, it has no bearing on us whatsoever. Josephine Smith, from this moment on, you are banished from the Smith family!”

At that moment, a deathly silence enveloped the room.

When she heard the words “you are banished,” Josephine trembled violently. Suddenly, her vision grew dark as her body began to swoon.
