The Legendary Man novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27 Kneel And Apologize

After all, Harrison was the most ruthless man in Jadeborough.

Although he wasn’t as powerful as the four prominent families, he was still someone who commanded respect within the legal and underground circles.

Why is he treating the young man with such deference?

It might not be obvious to ordinary folks, but Anderson was a cunning old fox who sensed something about their relationship.

Just a while ago, he had assumed Jonathan was the brazen man’s subordinate. But from the way events unfolded, it seemed to him that it was the other way around.

Can the young man be from one of the prominent families of the state? Or perhaps, he is from Yaleview? Since there are no prominent families with the surname Goldstein in the state, could he be one of the prominent families in Yaleview?

Just when Anderson was still making wild guesses, Jonathan looked toward him all of a sudden. “My advice to you is to order your men to back off before I’m pissed. Or else, the Blackwood family will be wiped out!”

All Jonathan wanted to do that day was to resolve the enmity between the Blackwoods and the Smiths. Other than that, he had no interest in the Blackwood family at all.

However, if the Blackwoods didn’t know better and insisted on provoking him, he would not mind destroying them along the way.

 

To him, annihilating the Blackwood family was as easy as squashing an insect.

And that would be the end of the Blackwoods.

Before Anderson could respond, everyone else was already in stitches. The more they looked at Jonathan, the more they thought of him as a fool!

Does he know who the Blackwood family is in Jadeborough? Even the mayor of Jadeborough wouldn’t dare say something like that, let alone someone lesser like Harrison.

“Hmph, even if you are from the Goldstein family of Yaleview, I’m afraid it’s not going to be easy for you to destroy the Blackwood family,” Anderson scoffed with a grim expression. Even though he was concerned about Jonathan’s identity, he wasn’t afraid of him. “Don’t forget that this is Jadeborough and not Yaleview. Your family might be powerful there, but you have no influence here.”

The Goldsteins of Yaleview?

Jonathan smirked to himself. Evidently, Anderson had assumed he was part of them. Not bothering to explain, he simply replied, “To me, the Goldsteins of Yaleview are nothing but insects too.”

What? The Goldsteins of Yaleview are nothing to him too?

With his eyelids twitching, Anderson couldn’t help but wonder if this was just a charade put on by Jonathan and Harrison.

The Goldsteins are one of the four prominent families of Yaleview and were infinitely more powerful than the Blackwoods. And yet, Jonathan simply sees them as insects?

“I am here today on account of the Smith family!” Jonathan declared the purpose of his visit. Anderson furrowed his eyebrows in response. “Do you mean the Smiths of Jadeborough?”

“Yes!” Jonathan casually nodded.

The Smiths of Jadeborough? How is he related to them? Anderson knitted his brows in thought. Knowing the Smith family very well, he was aware that they were a lesser-known family. If it weren’t for the ecological park project, he would never have anything to do with them at all.

So, how is the insignificant Smith family related to the Goldstein family of Yaleview?

“What’s your relationship with the Smiths?” Anderson couldn’t resist asking.

“I am their son-in-law!”
