The Legendary Man novel Chapter 232

Chapter 232 VIP

“Hello?” A burly man’s voice came from the other end of the line.

“It’s me, Jonathan Goldstein,” said Jonathan calmly.

“Mr. Goldstein!”

The tone from the other end of the line changed drastically after Jonathan introduced himself.

“Hey Randall, is Cranur under your jurisdiction?” asked Jonathan nonchalantly.

“Yes, it is. Are you there now?” asked Randall nervously.

“Yes, I am, and the police officers here are trying to arrest me,” shared Jonathan calmly.

“What?” shouted Randall. He was on the other end of the line, but when he learned about what was happening, he got so shaken that his legs trembled.

The police officers in Cranur almost took Jonathan away? What the hell? Who would dare to do something like that?

 

“W-Where are you now, Mr. Goldstein?” asked Randall immediately. He was quick to strategize and deal with the matter. “I will call their mayor now and have him go to you right away.”

“I am in Heart’s Hospital. He has ten minutes to travel over. If he’s late… Well, tell him not to bother to clock in tomorrow,” replied Jonathan.

 

“Understood, Mr. Goldstein.”

Randall didn’t dare to waste any time after receiving Jonathan’s orders.

Click! The call ended, and Jonathan turned around to stroke Alice’s head. He promised, “Don’t worry, the mayor will be here soon to apologize to you.”

“Really?” asked Alice as her big, round eyes stared at Jonathan. She would believe in Jonathan, even if no one else did.

She thought that it was ridiculous as well, but that didn’t stop her from having faith in Jonathan.

He’s talking about the mayor, who is a very powerful political figure. In fact, the mayor is the most powerful being here, so getting him over to apologize to me… It’s borderline impossible. Actually, it’d be a miracle if the mayor simply helps by stopping the police from arresting us.

“Of course. When have I ever lied to you?” said Jonathan. He was still stroking her head at the time and looked as though he was cooing a kid. To everyone else, however, those words and that gesture were all lies.

He is such a terrible actor.

“You may be young, and you may be worthless, but you can definitely put on an act,” commented Jared. He couldn’t help sneering at that point. “Getting the mayor over so he can apologize to the two of you? Who do you think you are?

“You know, I’d like to see that for myself. How, oh, how will you get the mayor to do that?”

Jared waved his hands after he finished speaking. He ordered, “You boys can hold off for a minute. Let him keep his charade on. I’d like to see how long he can keep it up.”

The police officers turned to their leader after hearing Jared’s request. Their inquiring gaze prompted the leader to scold, “What the hell are you looking at me for? Didn’t you hear what the good doctor said? Why are you so eager to take them away? Move aside already!”

“Understood.”

The police officers were about to make their moves, but their leader’s commands made it so that they had to back away.

Time tickled by.

Everyone was mocking Jonathan with their blatant stares. The worst among them was Jared, who did not bother to hide his sneers.

He looked at Jonathan as though the latter was a clown.

Alice, who had been hiding behind Jonathan, was starting to worry as well. She wasn’t worried about their safety, though. Instead, she wondered what would happen if the mayor never showed up.

Would those people let Jonathan off the hook easily?
