Chapter 36 Get Going Already
Members of the Blackwood family were nowhere to be seen in Jadeborough a few hours after the cancellation of the birthday banquet.
Most of the citizens couldn’t be bothered by the disappearance of the Blackwood family. Nonetheless, they would talk about it every now and then.
Meanwhile, the guests of the banquet were conscious of the fact they couldn’t afford to mess with Jonathan. After all, he was powerful enough to force Anderson into submission.
“Dad, what’s going on?” Alvin asked when he was on the way home with his father. He was astonished by the drastic turn of events as he thought Jonathan would be killed. Not only had that not happened, but the Blackwood family had been chased out of Jadeborough as well!
How is that possible?
Sebastian reprimanded, “You need to stop being such a busybody! Never pick on the Smith family and Jonathan Goldstein again! You’re as good as gone if you get on the nerves of the one behind Jonathan!”
I’m sure Jonathan’s acquainted with the most influential figure in Jazona because no one apart from Zachary would have been capable of stopping Kingstone from protecting the Blackwood family!
“Dad, are you telling me to stop going after Jonathan?” Alvin cried out in frustration.
“If you don’t stop this foolishness of yours, I’ll sever ties with you! I can’t afford to have you drag down the Langford family!”
Within one night, Jonathan’s name spread far and wide among the families in Jadeborough.
On the other hand, Jonathan was on his way to the residence of the family on the outskirts of the city with the rest of the Smith family.
Connor had never been considered an important member of the Smith family. The ones in charge didn’t even bother to grant him a mansion when he left.
A unit at a second-rate residential area was the only thing they offered him when the most inferior members would be given a mansion along with an Audi when they were about to start a family.
On the contrary, Connor wasn’t even given a car when he made up his mind to start a family with Margaret.
“Come on in!” Margaret turned around and urged once she unlocked the door. She would have never allowed Jonathan to return home with them if it weren’t because of his connection.
Things were still the same as they were three years ago. Ironically, the only difference was Jonathan’s belongings were nowhere to be seen anymore. It was almost as if he had never been a part of the family at all.
“You’re spending the night here!” Margaret pointed at the seat next to her after she took a seat. She looked at Jonathan in the eyes and commanded, “Now, go get me a basin of water to wash my feet!”
Much like she did years ago whenever she was exhausted, she ordered Jonathan around as if he was the housekeeper of the family.
“What? You’re not the only one who’s exhausted!” Jonathan took a seat on the couch instead of getting her the basin of water she wanted.
