Chapter 219 Lest Things Change
Although Josephine had never agreed to marry Jared and was naturally not his wife, her emotions went all over the place after he uttered those words earlier. That very moment, he was Prince Charming in her eyes, tall and handsome.
If he were to propose to her then, she would say yes without the slightest hesitation.
“No! I can’t die! You can’t kill me! Dorieus is my grandmaster, and he’ll avenge me if you kill me!”
Abject panic was written all over Falcon’s face, and there was a puddle on the floor beneath him. It turned out that he had peed his pants.
“I’ll be waiting!”
With a detached smile on his face, Jared brought his leg down right away.
Pop!
Like a ripe watermelon, Falcon’s head exploded.
“Ahh!”
Horrified, Josephine jumped into Jared’s arms.
As William watched the scene unfolding before him, a riot of feelings brewed within him. At the side, Walter and Tommy cast him envious glances.
According to status and position, William was still some distance away from Walter and Tommy. While he was the wealthiest man in Horington, the standing of a family that only did business wasn’t all that high in this age of martial arts.
Only when the family had a martial artist or an ancient martial artist among its ranks would its status be elevated.
Since William suddenly had a son-in-law like Jared, the standing of the Sullivan family was indisputable. Even Walter and Tommy would have to be courteous to him when they met him in the future.
“Congratulations, Mr. Sullivan!” Walter whispered to William.
In response, William flashed him a modest smile. “It’s still too early, Mr. Grange. It’s uncertain yet with young people nowadays.”
