The Legendary Man novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7 As Usual

Sebastian Langford? If he’s standing right here, he would’ve thrown Jonathan into the Goda River to feed the fishes!

Several people among the crowd regarded Jonathan as though they were looking at an idiot.

Who in Jadeborough doesn’t know how Langford Group made it big? Back then, it was with Sebastian’s ruthless methods did he climb to the top, sacrificing countless people as stepping stones. As such, half of his wealth is stained with blood! Even those with a net worth of over a hundred million avoid him like the plague, so an insignificant live-in son-in-law like Jonathan isn’t even worthy of note!

Alvin’s expression turned wintry after he heard Jonathan’s words. “Did you hear that, Josephine? He’s the one digging his own grave, so I can’t do anything about that!”

Having said that, he picked up his phone and dialed a number without chattering further. “Hello, Greg! I’ve run into a problem here, so come with a few men to handle it! As usual, remember to bring some weapons!”

The Greg he was referring to was none other than the captain of the Vice Enforcement Division in Jadeborough, Greg Jawson.

Greg usually accepted a lot of benefits from the Langford family, so he was basically the one who helped to handle things whenever Alvin caused any trouble outside or ran into a tricky situation.

“I’m at Room No. 1 at Phoenix International Hotel!”

When Alvin had finished speaking, he hung up and stared at Jonathan as though the man’s death was near at hand. “You’re very skilled at fighting, huh? Fine. I’ll see how good you are later, whether you’re any match for guns and bullets!”

 

The threat in his declaration was abundantly clear.

Everyone there looked at Jonathan in anticipation of watching a show upon hearing that threat.

The look in their eyes was plainly condemning him for inviting disaster.

Ysobel, especially, couldn’t resist sneering after perceiving Alvin’s words, “Some people truly don’t know their place. Do you think you’re really a big shot just because you stumbled upon a worthless stone by the roadside and met a big shot from Baykeep? Alas, a clump of mud is always a clump of mud, never amounting to anything!”

Her remark seemingly echoed the sentiments of everyone there.

Exactly! Jonathan is just a useless live-in son-in-law, so what if he was lucky and stumbled upon a worthless stone by the roadside? Alvin didn’t dare do anything to him when that big shot from Baykeep was here, but now that the big shot has left, Jonathan’s nothing but a clump of mud! What a fool!

“Why are you keeping mum now, Jonathan? Weren’t you all arrogant earlier, not even having the slightest modicum of respect for my father?” Alvin couldn’t help mocking when he noticed that Jonathan was so frightened by his threat that he couldn’t even utter a single word.

Sure enough, he’s a coward! He hasn’t even seen a gun, yet he’s already petrified to the point that he doesn’t dare make a peep!

“What’s there to say?” Jonathan glanced at him blandly, not in the mood to bother about him. “Don’t you think you’re courting death to threaten me with a gun?”

In this world, there are only two types of people who dare point a gun at me. One is a dead man, and the other is a man who’s moments away from death!

“Did you guys hear that? He said that I’m courting death!” Hearing his comment, Alvin acted as though it was the world’s biggest joke.
