The Legendary Man Chapter 260

Her Name Is Josephine Smith

“Yeah, you heard it right,” replied Jonathan calmly as he nodded.

“Really? That’s wonderful,” said Sophia. Her eyes glowed with warmth and happiness as soon as she got an affirmative answer.

The last time she saw Jonathan was over ten years ago, and at the time, he was still a puny tween.

Who would’ve thought that the tween will grow up and get married in a blink of an eye?

“Where is she from? What’s her name? Can I look at her photo?” asked Sophia excitedly.

“Her name is Josephine Smith,” answered Jonathan. He couldn’t help smiling when he said that name, and he was still smiling when he fished out his phone and showed his aunt their wedding photos. “We took these photos when we got married.”

“Let me see.”

Sophia zoomed in on the photo after she got the phone from Jonathan. She scanned every inch and even scrutinized every strand of hair on Josephine.

“Oh, this young lady is so stunning,” complimented Josephine. She was the kind of woman who held high standards when it came to beauty.

However, it didn’t matter because Josephine was more beautiful than any blue-eyed blondes on the TV or any Asian model with warm brown eyes.

Her icy aura, which came naturally, also created a sense of distance that only made her more dazzling.

“Where is she from?” asked Sophia as she handed the phone back to Jonathan.

“Jazona,” replied Jonathan nonchalantly.

“Jazona?” repeated Sophia in surprise. “Have you been there this whole time?”

“Not really,” answered Jonathan as he shook his head. “I’ve been everywhere, but I have stayed in Jazona for a while.”

“It must’ve been tough for you,” said Sophia as she stared at that strangely familiar face in front of her. She couldn’t help but sigh. “I was studying overseas when I first heard about your parents’ passing. I took the first flight home right away, but when I returned, I heard that you had already run away from home in a fit of anger. It was so disheartening that I didn’t even get to say goodbye to you.

“Seriously, how is your temper so terrible despite being so young?”

“Run away from home?” repeated Jonathan. He couldn’t resist scoffing and asking, “Who told you that I run away from home?”

“Everyone in the family said so,” replied Sophia. The sneer Jonathan let out signaled that something was off, and Sophia sensed it instantly. “Was that not the case? I thought you couldn’t accept the fact that your parents passed away and that was why you ran away from home.”

“Of course, that’s not true,” said Jonathan. He shook his head.

I was only a kid back then, and I had never left Yaleview before. On top of that, I was penniless, so how could I have run away from home?

“What happened? D-Did everyone gang up and lie to me?” asked Sophia. She looked horrified at the time.

That was what I heard after I returned to the country. Even my parents, Jonathan’s very own biological grandparents, said that was the case!
