The Legendary Man Chapter 377

Outlaw

Owe him a few billion?

The moment Jonathan said that, everyone fell silent.

At that moment, they couldn’t help but turn to look at Cecilia.

How could the reputable third daughter of the Hansley family owe someone a few billion? How could this be?

“Nonsense!”

Just then, a middle-aged man decked in a black suit stepped forward and pointed at Jonathan.

“Since you said that Ms. Hansley owes you a few billion, do you have any proof? Do you have a loan receipt? Do you have an IOU document? Do you have a lawyer to confirm it or an audio or video recording to prove it?”

The middle-aged man asked him about six questions at a go. Upon seeing that Jonathan couldn’t answer any one of his questions, he then sneered. “If you don’t have any proof, I can sue you for defamation for accusing Ms. Hansley of owing you a few billion without evidence. Based on what you said, doesn’t it mean that I can go to the Larson family tomorrow and say that they owe me ten billion as well?”

Everyone burst into laughter at his words.

At that moment, Jonathan just seemed like a clown to them.

Even Cecilia couldn’t help but cover her mouth and stifle a laugh.

“Mr. Lawson never disappoints. As expected of the number one lawyer in Gronga. His sharp words are enough to leave this young man speechless!”

“Of course. Mr. Lawson is someone who dares to point fingers and argue back at the judge in court after all. Won’t it just be a piece of cake for him to deal with a penniless bum?”

The man known as Mr. Lawson was none other than Howard Lawson, a renowned lawyer in Gronga.

Although he was quite young, he was very eloquent and was the number one lawyer in Gronga. Ever since he started working, he had never lost in court even once.

He had never lost a single case that he accepted.

Countless nobles and elites were defeated by him, let alone a penniless bum.

“Sir, do you know how much damage you brought to Ms. Hansley with your words just now?”

Howard casually took off his gold-rimmed glasses and huffed onto them before putting them back on. He then turned to Jonathan and said, “If she wants to sue you, she can sue you for defamation and extortion at any time. Did you know that these two charges alone will be enough to give you a sentence of at least three years?”

“Oh. Is that right?” Jonathan chuckled at Howard’s words.

“Do you think I’m joking with you?” Upon seeing the nonchalant expression on Jonathan’s face, Howard felt insulted.

“This is my last warning to you. If you don’t apologize to Ms. Hansley immediately, I will call the police and they can detain you instantly.”

“You talk too much.” Jonathan glanced at him. His gaze suddenly turned cold as he looked at Cecilia. “Cecilia, I remember telling you before that you shouldn’t make me wait too long. My patience will only wear thin. But it’s just a pity that you didn’t seem to have understood my words.”

Jonathan shook his head lightly as he continued, “Now, I have completely lost my patience!”

At that, Cecilia’s face instantly fell.

A huge wave of horror washed over her.

“Sir, are you even listening to me?” Howard’s face turned grim upon seeing how Jonathan didn’t even spare a glance at him. “First, you trespassed into private property, then you slandered and extorted Ms. Hansley. Not only that, you even threatened her. Did you know that with these few charges alone, I can send you to jail and imprison you for a hundred years?”

Howard had never feared anyone when it came to a court case.
