I Am Unstoppable

The taxi driver stared at Jonathan in disbelief. He was afraid that he would get scammed by the latter. “Are you sure?”

Jonathan was at a loss for words. He then said, “I'm just borrowing your phone. I'm not asking you for money. I'll return your phone to you after I'm done with my call. What's there to be afraid of?”

The taxi driver appeared to be convinced by his words. Oh well, I'll just lend it to him. I have to take risks to get rich after all!

With that thought in mind, the taxi driver gritted his teeth before handing his phone over.

Jonathan took the phone and said, “If you don't unlock your phone, I can only access your emergency hotlines.

The taxi driver laughed sheepishly before unlocking his phone for Jonathan.

Jonathan held the phone in his hands and hesitated. Who should I call? I should probably call Mabel. However, if I implicate her in this case, there will be many risks and uncertainties.

Naturally, the next person he thought of was Jennifer.

There was a part of him that yearned to contact the woman.

In the end, he called Jennifer.

The call was connected shortly after.

A cold voice that Jonathan was familiar with sounded out. “Hello? Who's this?”

Jonathan took a deep breath before saying, “Hello, Jennifer. It's me.”

The person's voice on the other end changed and held a trace of agitation. However, she tried to suppress her emotions.

“Jonathan? You've changed your number? Why do you have the time to call me today? I had thought that you had forgotten about me and your friends in Horington.”

Jennifer tried her best to pretend that everything was normal. She tried to talk to him like she was chatting with a friend.

However, turbulent emotions still overtook her.

Jonathan lowered his voice and said, “Jennifer. Please listen to me. I've encountered some trouble and I can't contact anyone else. I borrowed this phone from a taxi driver. Please transfer a hundred thousand to a bank account. I'll message you the bank account number using this phone number. Is that all right?”

Jennifer was shocked. She replied, “Don't worry about the money. How are you doing?”

Jonathan said, “I'm fine now. After I have settled this matter, I'll contact you again, all right?”

Naturally, Jennifer agreed.

Thereafter, she hung up.

He did not call her “Jen,” anymore as he had already made up his mind.

After undergoing so many life-threatening situations, those values that constrained him slowly faded away.

After hanging up, Jonathan said to the taxi driver, “Send your bank account number to this number.”

The taxi driver tried to control his happiness and immediately sent the bank account number over. He then turned to Jonathan and asked, “Will I really receive the money?”

Jonathan smiled faintly. “Why are you always so suspicious?”

An embarrassed smile appeared on the taxi driver's face. “Well, a hundred thousand is not a small sum!”

Jonathan said, “You have to look at things from different perspectives. Perhaps that sum is not a small sum to you, but to me, it's merely enough to purchase a glass of wine.”

The taxi driver's gaze was instantly filled with admiration.

At that moment, the money was transferred into the taxi driver's bank account.

When the taxi driver saw the number, he was so excited that he did not know what to say. “Oh my goodness! It's two hundred thousand!”

The taxi driver was in his forties and was old enough to be Jonathan's uncle. Yet, when he saw the money, he was so elated that he yelped childishly with happiness written all over his face.

Jonathan did not know whether he should laugh or cry. He said, “Okay, I'm a little hungry now. You've got the money. So how about this? I'll give you a hundred and fifty thousand, and I will take fifty thousand. Please bring me somewhere to eat and buy a phone for me. Then, let me stay in your home for a night. What do you say?”

“No problem!” The taxi driver beamed happily.

The sudden windfall had made him forget about everything else. He did not consider if Jonathan would pose a threat to him or not.

Soon, he drove Jonathan to a place to eat.

“What do I call you?” Jonathan asked.

The taxi driver replied, “My name is Monroe Linneman. You can just call me Mon. How about you?”

Jonathan chuckled before saying, “My name is Jonathan Lawson.”

“That's a nice name!” Monroe tried to flatter Jonathan.

“Oh? Why's that?” Jonathan asked.

Monroe froze. He was only saying it on a whim, and he did not know how to answer Jonathan's question. A moment later, he said, “You have so much money! Naturally, your name is good because it brings you luck!”

Jonathan could not help but burst out laughing once more. What the hell? What kind of logic is this?

“By the way, what would you like to eat, Mr. Lawson?” Monroe asked awkwardly. He was not used to using such formal terms.

Jonathan felt awkward, too. “Monroe, you can just call me Jonathan.” After pondering for a moment, he said, “Let's eat beef stew.”

“Sure!” Monroe said.

He then brought Jonathan to a restaurant that sold beef stew. It was half past two in the afternoon, and there were not many people in the restaurant.

After Jonathan and Monroe went into the restaurant, the waiter immediately walked over to escort them in.

Jonathan asked, “Is there a private room available?”

“Yes,” the waiter replied.

Jonathan said, “Please lead us to a private room, then.”

“Of course, sir!” the waiter replied.

The two men trailed after the waiter and entered the private room. Jonathan immediately ordered, “Please get me some yogurt and a bottle of water. Also, please serve some food staples first. Kindly serve it to me within two minutes.”

The food that Jonathan requested was ready-made. As such, when the waiter heard his words, he simply nodded and went out.

Two minutes later, a cup of yogurt, a bottle of water, and some bread were laid spread out on the table.

Jonathan pried open the cup of yogurt and ate it in one gulp.

His body had been deprived of food and nutrients for too long. If it weren't for his high cultivation, he would have died, and he would not have been able to endure for so long.

The yogurt entered his body and the cells in his body as well as his organs absorbed the nutrients he needed immediately.

Jonathan then devoured the plate of bread in less than a minute before drinking the bottle of water.

After doing so, he felt much better.

When people starved, their digestive system would undergo a major change. It was easy for an accident to occur if a normal starving person ate too quickly.

However, Jonathan had strong organs and could adjust his body accordingly, so nothing bad happened to him.

Monroe and the waiter gawked at Jonathan in shock as the man wolfed down his food ravenously. How long he without food?

Soon, Jonathan felt much better. He could feel warmth and vitality start to circulate through his body.

He took a deep breath and smiled at Monroe before saying, “Monroe, I'll start ordering food now. You have been warned.”

Monroe laughed and replied, “Feel free to order as much as you wish!”

He did not think that Jonathan could eat much.

After all, compared to the one hundred and fifty thousand he earned, a meal cost a mere pittance.

Jonathan immediately ordered meatballs, eggs, beef stew, and many other dishes.

After listening to him, the waiter asked in confusion, “Sir, are you sure that the two of you can finish the food?”

Jonathan replied in all seriousness, “I'm sure.”

The waiter did not say anything more. He turned around and left.

Jonathan immediately turned to Monroe and said, “Monroe, please help me purchase a phone. I don't care about the brand, but it has to be of decent quality. You can deduct the money from my fifty thousand. And do get a SIM card for me as well. Is that okay?”

Monroe replied, “Sure!”

Jonathan gave an awkward chuckle and added, “By the way, I'm rather famished right now, so I'll start eating first without waiting for you.”

Monroe waved his hand and said, “No problem! Do as you wish!”

Thereafter, he went to settle the matters that Jonathan had requested of him.

Soon after, a piping hot beef stew was served.
