The Legendary Man Chapter 381
I Want The Hansley Family
While the island was in complete turmoil, Jonathan brought Cecilia to a nearby mountain.
Atop the mountain, it was misty and clouded by drizzle.
From the mountain peak, one could vaguely overlook the entire island. When the sky darkened, the breathtaking night view of the island was in full view.
Jonathan casually lit up a cigarette as he sat on a rock with his legs dangling in the air.
He was thoroughly enjoying the scenery.
However, standing behind him, Cecilia was not so at ease. Her face was deathly pale as she stared at the man in horror. Although Jonathan did not do anything to her, Cecilia could not suppress the surging fear in her heart. “You’re just letting me be. Aren’t you worried that I will run off?”
Jonathan had his back faced towards Cecelia, not even bothering to keep an eye on her.
He did not even tie her up to restrict her movements.
It was as if he didn’t care if she escaped.
“What’s there to worry about?” Jonathan replied without even looking back. “If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn’t even have a fighting chance to escape.”
Not just the measly Cecilia, Jonathan could destroy the entire Hansley family with great ease.
Where could she run to anyway? All the land on earth belongs to Asura’s Office!
Even if she ran to the ends of the earth, she could not outrun his reach.
“What are you planning to do now? Are you going to just keep me hostage and demand money from my family?” A trace of remorse flashed in Cecilia’s heart as she looked at Jonathan’s back.
If she knew that this would happen, she would not have lied to Jonathan back then.
However, she had no way of knowing that Jonathan was such a maniac. The man actually turned the entire Gronga upside down and kidnapped her in front of everyone.
He even got rid of Wayde on the spot!
It was clear that he was a psychopath.
“Money?” Jonathan chuckled after he heard what Cecilia said. “Do you really think I’m short of money?”
There was at least ten billion in just that one bank card of his that could never be exhausted. Not to mention, he took over a few influential families in Jazona and Yaleview.
Jonathan had at least several hundred billions worth in just assets alone.
A few billion was like peanuts to him.
“Then… what do you want?” Cecilia asked nervously.
“I already said earlier that it’s not so easy to take my things. My debts are not settled so easily, either.” Jonathan tossed the cigarette butt in his hand, then turned to look at Cecilia. “The moment you decided to go back on your word, it became a matter that cannot be settled with money.”
“So, what are you going to do?” Cecilia bit her lip.
“It’s simple. You and your Hansley family have to pay the right price to make it up to me,” Jonathan said coolly.
“Jonathan, don’t take things too far!” Cecilia grew increasingly anxious as she listened to Jonathan.
“Don’t forget, this is Gronga. You took me away in front of so many people and even killed Wayde Larson. Do you think the Larson family will let you off so easily? Do you think the Department of Criminal Investigation of Gronga will let you off so easily?”
“Too far?” Jonathan chuckled coldly upon hearing Cecilia’s little speech. “If it weren’t for me, your grandfather would probably still be lying in his hospital bed, breathing his last breaths, and ready to go any minute. And you, Ms. Cecilia, you would probably still be ostracized by those siblings of yours and not even be able to be part of the core of the Hansley family!”
Jonathan took a breath and continued, “As of now, your grandfather’s sickness is cured, and your father has successfully taken over the Hansley family. And you, Cecilia, have become the hot topic of Gronga. Now, you’re saying I’m taking things too far? Back then, did I force you to buy the Phantom Grass from me?”
