The Legendary Man Chapter 384

Put An End To It

Jonathan sat motionless on a rock at the top of the mountain, looking down at the scenery. On the other hand, Cecilia was curled into a shivering ball under a tree.

She was only wearing a white, long dress that she had carefully picked out for the banquet.

Her original intention was to dress up looking elegant and dignified like a princess that evening. However, after a chilly night, she had been reduced to a white swan living amongst the common folk.

“Grandpa!”

Suddenly, Cecilia’s eyes lit up when she saw her grandfather.

Next to him stood the legend of the Larson family, Jamie Larson.

“Cecilia!”

On hearing Cecilia’s cries, the old man turned around.

It was indeed the head of the Hansley family, Wilson Hansley.

“Grandpa, are you here to save me?” Cecilia immediately cheered up as the once despondent look on her face faded as her eyes lit up. She was on the verge of giving up when she saw her grandfather. At that instant, she had a renewed hope of staying alive.

He was her last chance to survive.

“Yes!”

Wilson nodded and turned to look at Jonathan, whose back was facing him. “You must be Jonathan Goldstein.”

“Are you Cecilia’s grandfather?” Jonathan turned around coolly when he heard the man’s voice.

“That’s right,” Wilson replied without hesitation.

“Did you bring the money?” Jonathan asked.

“No.” Wilson shook his head. “Jonathan Goldstein, you’re mistaken. I didn’t come here to give you the money in exchange for Cecilia.”

“Huh? Don’t you want to save your granddaughter?” Jonathan looked at Wilson without a trace of emotion.

He did not seem to be offended by Wilson’s reply.

“Of course, I want to save her, but I won’t give you a single cent!” Wilson curled his lips in disdain.

“Grandpa!”

Cecilia’s face turned ashen when she heard what her grandfather said. Her scalp began to prickle.

She had never expected her grandfather to give such a reply at this time. His action made her wonder if he was ready to abandon her.

“Looks like your family has the habit of going back on your words. It must have started with you.” Jonathan showed no signs of displeasure, as though he had expected such a response from Wilson.

Since the day Jonathan arrived, he had never intended to get back those few billions.

The amount was only a number to him.

To him, there was no difference between a couple of billion and a few hundred.
