The Legendary Man novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76 I Never Boast

Thud!

Without another word, Fenrir fell to his knees before Jonathan unhesitatingly.

He didn’t even dare inquire about the reason.

In that instant, the entire room became as silent as the grave, not a peep was heard.

It was so still that one could hear the sounds of breathing loud and clear.

No one dared to ask a single question, let alone inquire about the reason.

Is Fenrir powerful? Yes! He has connections to government officials and their illegal counterparts, in addition to being Harrison’s top fighter. Countless people met their ends at his hands, and few people dare to go against him in Jadeborough. But now, he’s kneeling in front of Jonathan, not even daring to ask why!

And how about Harrison? He’s even more powerful, the most ruthless man in Jadeborough and the true king of the underground circles in the city. In front of him, Fenrir doesn’t even dare talk back. But still, he fell to his knees before Jonathan docilely and was even so stricken at a single glance from the man that he slapped himself. Then, he even asked him whether he was feeling better!

That scene truly shocked everyone present.

 

Emmeline, especially, gaped at everything that was unfolding before her eyes incredulously. She was so surprised that her hand flew up to her mouth.

I-Is this still the Jonathan whom I know, the worthless bum who depended on the Smith family to support him for a whole year?

“Is he your friend?” Jonathan pointed at Pablo on the couch.

“No!” Harrison denied it immediately without a second’s delay. “He’s a collaboration partner of mine on a particular project. Was it him who offended you?”

“Not exactly.” Jonathan shook his head.

From beginning to end, he has never done anything to offend me since whatever he did to Charles and Jory was no business of mine. I’ve never been a person who likes to poke my nose into other people’s affairs. However, he really shouldn’t have set his sights on Emmeline! While I detest her greatly, she’s still Josephine’s sister at the end of the day. Never mind if I’m averse toward her, but I’ll never allow someone else to pick on her!

“He just ruined my mood,” Jonathan replied airily.

“I know what to do, Mr. Goldstein!” When Harrison heard that, his expression grew chilly. Turning to Pablo, he declared, “I’m sorry, Mr. Hearnshaw!”

“What do you mean by that, Mr. Seymour?” Pablo’s face instantly darkened at the man’s steely expression.

The only reason I dared to be so reckless in Jadeborough is all thanks to his reputation. In this city, no one dares to offend him, much less disrespect him. But if he makes a move against me, who else in Jadeborough could protect me?

“Nothing much. It’s just that you naturally have to pay the price after ruining Mr. Goldstein’s mood!” Eyeing him coldly, Harrison ordered, “Men, chop off his limbs and throw him down from the third floor!”

“Understood, Mr. Seymour!”

As soon as that command from Harrison fell, the dozen of lackeys behind him moved forward to act right away.

Seeing that, the few lackeys behind Pablo were so frightened that they didn’t even dare make a peep.

Harrison tasked them with protecting Pablo, so now that the man himself had spoken, none of them dared to interfere.

“How could you simply turn on me, Harrison?” When Pablo heard that, his expression changed drastically. He frantically screeched, “Don’t forget that there’s a business collaboration worth several hundred million between us! If you dare make a move against me, the business will be off the table!”

“So be it!” Harrison wasn’t the least bit concerned.

What’s a mere few hundred million compared to Asura? Even if it were several billion, I wouldn’t dare go against him!
