The Legendary Man novel Chapter 529

Chapter 529 The Goldstein Family No Longer Exists

After hearing Jonathan’s words, the elderly man was at a loss for words. “You…” he stammered as his body trembled violently. Someone quickly held him so he wouldn’t fall.

“Jonathan, this is your grandpa’s brother. How could you be rude to him? Where are your manners?” another man yelled at Jonathan. Alas, all he got was an icy glare from Jonathan.

“Manners? Who are you to talk about manners to me?” He snorted icily. “I asked you to come for a discussion as I didn’t want to humiliate you. Do you think you’re that important? You want to talk about rules, huh? Let’s talk about the Goldstein family’s rules.

According to the Goldstein family’s rules, those who aren’t direct descendants shouldn’t interfere with the direct descendants’ core decisions. My grandpa is the patriarch of the direct descendants. My father might be dead, but my Uncle Tommy is still in charge.

My Aunt Sophia shall be in charge if he isn’t in charge. As she’s currently in the hospital, I, Jonathan Goldstein, will take over the position. No matter what, the position won’t be left in your hands as you’re from one of the branches. Am I right?”

Hearing his words, the Goldstein family members slowly fell silent.

At their reaction, Jonathan chuckled. “Let’s talk about moving the entire family to Bonham Island. If I were to say it another way by announcing that I’m moving the family’s headquarters to the island, that would be part of the direct descendants’ core decisions. What right do you have to object to my decision?

I’m not lying when I say the Osborne family has just begun their revenge. Death would come knocking on your door soon if you were to stay in Yaleview. I shall give each family a mansion if you agree to move to Bonham Island. I won’t press you to give up the money you have now.

The Goldstein family is worth hundreds of billions. As core members, you are in possession of assets worth billions. That’s enough for you to lead a worry-free life. Of course, if you insist on staying and keeping watch over your assets, I can’t force you to leave.”

After a pause to let that sink in, he added, “After I leave Yaleview today, I shall announce that I have nothing to do with the Yaleview Goldsteins anymore. From now on, we shall go on separate ways. Whether you survive or die has nothing to do with me. Do as you see fit.”

Ignoring their outbursts, Jonathan got to his feet and strode out of the house. “Jonathan…” someone called out hesitantly behind him.

Jonathan turned over his shoulder and spotted his uncle, Tommy. “What is it?” he asked coolly as he wasn’t close to Tommy at all.

After all, Tommy had contributed to his getting kicked out of the Goldstein family. Tommy forced a smile when he realized how indifferent Jonathan was.

“Your grandma and I will head to Bonham Island as you say,” he revealed. “That’s great. You’ll be safer there,” Jonathan said with a nod.

“Er… How is your Aunt Sophia doing?” A flash of anguish appeared in Tommy’s eyes when he mentioned Sophia’s name. Tommy and his two siblings were the direct descendants of the Goldstein family.

Following Jonathan’s father’s death, Sophia was abducted and went missing. As the second sibling of the family, he was involved in the power struggle all his life but was still alive and well.

“Aunt Sophia got hurt, so I arranged for her to get treated.”

Jonathan felt terrible when he saw Tommy’s anguished expression. “I’ll send her your address on Bonham Island. However, it depends on her whether or not she wants to pay you a visit,” he added.

“All right. Thank you!” Tommy choked up. “I’m sorry, Jonathan. Back then, I—”

“Stop,” Jonathan cut in. “As I said, I won’t be who I am today without the past.” Half a day after martial law was lifted in Yaleview, the entire Yaleview descended into an uproar.
