The Legendary Man novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49 Sense Of Superiority

Jonathan didn’t even need to look, for he could recognize the person by her voice.

Sure enough, a young lady strutted out on her high heels before giving Jonathan a disdainful look. “Where is your electric scooter? Did you lose it?” she inquired.

“It’s none of your business!” Jonathan wasn’t in the mood to yak with her.

“How dare you talk to me that way?” the young lady demanded with a scowl. “Josephine, won’t you discipline your dirt poor boyfriend? Look how rude he is!”

“What do you want?” Josephine finally lost it after having to endure the lady’s insults for the entire day.

“What do you mean?” The young lady put on a well-practiced pout. “I’m doing this for your sake, Josephine. You shouldn’t fall for the same trick twice. Haven’t you suffered enough after marrying a penniless loser back then? Now that he’s missing, you got yourself another penniless loser? What else is he good at, except for boasting about himself? I don’t understand why you fell for them!”

It was obvious that the lady had a sense of superiority before Josephine, for she owned a BMW 3 series sedan.

Josephine, on the other hand, had to go home on an old electric scooter.

“No matter what kind of men I choose, it’s none of your business,” Josephine answered in an icy tone. “If you don’t have anything else to say, please get out of my way!”

 

With that, Josephine swung her head around and stalked away.

“Josephine, why are you in such a hurry?” Her colleague immediately ran after her. “I’m merely commenting on that penniless loser. Why are you upset? My boyfriend is coming to pick me up. Do you need a ride home? He just bought the latest Lamborghini that cost around two million.”

A smug smile played on her lips.

So what if Josephine’s prettier than me? She has to ride a stupid electric scooter!

“No need!” Josephine rejected her offer without hesitation. “I’m going in the other direction!”

“Josephine…”

The colleague was about to say something when she spotted a crowd around a fiery red Lamborghini.

The smooth curves of the car promptly attracted her attention.

“This should be the car my boyfriend bought this afternoon,” the lady blurted out excitedly, assuming that the red Lamborghini belonged to her boyfriend. “Look, Josephine. Isn’t it gorgeous?”

“Yes, it is,” answered Josephine without looking up.

“It cost over two million. No wonder it’s gorgeous,” her colleague announced smugly. Taking Josephine’s arm, she invited, “Come on, Josephine. Let’s go take a look at my boyfriend’s new car. I bet you’ve never taken a ride in such an expensive sports car. Do you want to experience it later?”

Jonathan shook his head and chuckled, for she didn’t bother hiding her sense of superiority

“No need!” Josephine rejected her offer and turned to leave. Suddenly, Jonathan blocked her way and said, “Yes, Darling. She’s right. Let’s try it out. If you like it, I’ll buy one for you!”

He’ll buy one for her?
