The Legendary Man novel Chapter 535

Chapter 535 Agent 65

“Deal!” Jonathan stretched out his hand toward Xiara. The latter hesitated for a moment before accepting the handshake. “Why do I have a feeling that I’ve been tricked?” Xiara muttered as she withdrew her hand.

Jonathan chuckled and said, “I doubt there’s anyone capable of tricking you.” “That’s true.” Xiara smiled smugly. “All right. Since I’ve taken your money, I’ll take care of your problem. Starting from today, I’ll guarantee your family’s safety for the next ten days.”

As Xiara spoke, she leaped hastily to the roof and disappeared into the night. Jonathan looked in the direction where she had left and shook his head lightly.

He had prepared a room for her since the first day of her arrival. However, she had never put up a night there. As an assassin, Xiara insisted on finding a relatively safe place for herself. Otherwise, she could not fall asleep.

Snapping out of his reverie, Jonathan concealed his thoughts and attempted to cleanse his spirit through meditation. Then, he put away the bronze handbell and continued cultivating the Heaven Sword.

Previously, he saw a vision when the sword gleamed with a green light. Something similar happened again yesterday, only the green light illuminated longer than before. Jonathan suddenly recalled Xiara’s words and thought that the particular scene might signify something important.

Last time, the vision flashed across his eyes too quickly. He was not able to identify if the light was merely an illusion or a reflection from somewhere across the earth.

Jonathan thought about illustrating what he saw from the vision so that Hades and the rest could investigate further.

However, apart from dense foliage and lush greenery, there was nothing iconic that appeared in the vision. With that, it was undoubtedly challenging to look into it. Hence, he dismissed the idea.

“What time is it, Jonathan? Are you going to sleep?”

Right when Jonathan was about to hold the Heaven Sword in the hope of gaining some insights, he heard Josephine’s voice from the third floor.

He lifted his head and saw Josephine in her loose pajamas. Despite donning a loose outfit, her voluptuous body could not go unnoticed.

Josephine’s naivety seemed to have been replaced by her growing maturity. Jonathan wondered if it was due to her pregnancy or the tremendous development happening in the Smith family.

“Yes! I’m heading to bed now.”

Jonathan hurried into the bedroom and hugged Josephine by the waist.

“Your wish is my command, Darling.”

He then planted a kiss on her forehead.

“Jeez!” she hummed coquettishly in his arms.

“You’ve been away a lot lately. Do you know how worried I am about you?”

“Yes, I do,” Jonathan replied, feeling guilty.

Previously, Margaret had brought up the same issue over meals. Although Jonathan was not a huge fan of Margaret, he undeniably spent very little time with Josephine.

After venturing for three long years, he returned to live a peaceful life with Josephine.

However, he did not expect to become entangled in multiple quandaries, one after another.

He was misunderstood by the Smiths and was at the receiving end of their sarcastic remarks and heartless insults.

As Jonathan reflected on the past, he realized that it was then he accompanied Josephine the most.

Sadly, he had to leave the following day.

At that thought, he felt so bad and hugged Josephine.

“Thanks for all that you do, Josephine.”

“Why are you so cheesy all of a sudden?”

Josephine blushed slightly and turned away.

“Ouch! Jonathan, your thing hit me.”

Instantly, he chucked his sword aside.
