The Legendary Man novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Join Me

“Go on! I’ll give you twenty minutes just in case ten minutes isn’t enough! Show me how you’re going to get your hand on the most extravagant mansion!”

Margaret continued provoking Jonathan. She was certain it was another bluff as her son-in-law was stone broke.

It takes more than a fortune for members of the upper echelon to become residents of the most premium residential area in Jadeborough. The cheapest mansion already costs more than ten million.

Not even ordinary millionaires can get their hands on the mansions there because only influential figures are allowed to join the neighborhood.

Most of them are the persons in charge of renowned organizations or political figures of the city. I heard it was the favorite hang-out spot of socialites from Jazona as well.

Three years ago, someone told me it would cost them more than a hundred million to acquire the most extravagant mansion there. I’m afraid it’s going to cost about three hundred million due to inflation over the past three years.

There’s no way Jonathan can afford such an exclusive mansion even with the aid of the mysterious figure. No one in their right mind would purchase a wimp something as extravagant as that.

“We shall see!” Jonathan thought it was a waste of time to bicker with his mother-in-law. If Josephine wasn’t against the idea of moving out with him, he would definitely take her to the most lavish mansion in Jadeborough.

No matter who the inhabitant might be, he was confident he could get rid of them since not even Zachary had the guts to defy him.

Josephine couldn’t stand the bickering duo anymore. “Just give me a break! Mom, when will you stop making a fuss and learn to appreciate the favor Jonathan has done us? Are you seriously asking him to wash your feet when he has resolved the conflict between our family and the Blackwoods?”

Her mother shot daggers at her. “Why are you taking his side again?”

Unable to stand her mother anymore, Josephine stomped her way to her room. “If you want someone to wash your feet, why don’t you go ahead and do it yourself?” Then, she called back to Jonathan, “I want you to come with me! You don’t have to spend the night on the couch!”

Did she just ask me to join her in her room?

It took Jonathan a few seconds to snap out of his confusion as he had never been allowed to join Josephine in her room, even when they got married a few years ago.

He had spent most of his time on the couch or the storeroom. To his surprise, she had asked him to join her today.

“Josephine, have you lost your mind?” Margaret jolted up from the couch when she heard her daughter. She blurted out her concerns, “What if he takes advantage of you when you’re sleeping?”

“What do you mean I’m going to take advantage of her? I’m her lawfully wedded husband, so it’s not much of a big deal even if we do sleep together or something, isn’t it?” Jonathan interrupted with his brows furrowed.

Truth be told, Jonathan had never consummated his marriage with Josephine despite being married for four years. Heck, he hadn’t even held her hand before!

He was a perfectly healthy man. However, he was against the idea of forcing her into submission.

“No! I don’t care if you’re her husband or not! I’m not allowing you to sleep with her!” Margaret raised her volume since she knew it was over if her daughter consummated her marriage with Jonathan.

After all, how could Josephine get her another wealthy son-in-law if she was no longer pure?
