The Legendary Man novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40 None Of Your Business

Josephine glared at her sister and barked, “Emmeline, shut up!”

She couldn’t help but flush when she recalled the intimate session in the man’s arms after she took her shower. It was the first time a man had ever touched her throughout the past two decades.

Emmeline started stomping her feet to express her frustration. “Josephine, have you lost your mind? How could you spend a night with this good-for-nothing?”

Jonathan launched a strike at his sister-in-law’s head and warned, “Where are your manners? When will you learn to show your brother-in-law some respect?”

“Stay the hell away from me! I will never acknowledge you as my brother-in-law!”

“Ugh! Give me a break! I’m off to the office!” Josephine sprinted toward the entrance after she got herself a few pieces of bread to eat along the way.

“I’ll drop you off!” Jonathan went after Josephine.

“Josephine—”

It took Emmeline a few minutes to regain her composure as the duo marched out of the house side by side. She muttered to herself, “I’ll come up with something else to teach you another lesson soon enough!”

 

Jonathan showed Josephine the way to the half a decade old electric scooter and urged, “Hop on, Darling! We’ll go for a ride together!”

Josephine was speechless because the man seemed to be proud of the scooter when there was nothing special about it.

It’s not like it’s a Lamborghini!

“Hold on tight! If not, you’re going to fall once I start accelerating!”

Once Jonathan zoomed off, Josephine grasped the hem of the man’s shirt to stop herself from falling as he warned.

“You need to stop being so shy! Go on and hold on to my waist tightly!”

“Shut up!”

Josephine glared at him and continued grasping the hem of his shirt to prevent any form of physical contact.

Jonathan maneuvered around the bustling streets easily with the electric scooter. The moment he thought things would get very nasty if there was a heavy downpour, he suggested, “Shall I get you a car for the ease of commuting to work?”

“No need! Are you sure you have enough to get me a car when it’s going to cost you a little more than fifty thousand to get even the cheapest car?”

Josephine turned him down the moment he brought up the suggestion. She thought he didn’t even have ten thousand with him, let alone fifty thousand.

“I do have enough money!” Jonathan wasn’t a huge fan of cash, but he had a debit card with him. He wasn’t certain of the amount available, but one thing was for sure—he had more than he would ever need.

In short, it wasn’t a big deal to purchase Josephine a car when he could easily get her a shopping mall.
