I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 281

Jonathan was bewildered and still fearful after the crisis at Void Domain. He nearly died without even figuring out what was going on.

Nevertheless, Jonathan was the kind to take things as they came. Since he could not decipher what had happened, he decided to put the matter aside for now.

Meanwhile, Monroe Linneman was on his way to Victory Enterprise's building.

Jonathan called Victor, and the call was soon picked up.

“Who is it?” came Victor's voice.

Jonathan uttered, “Mr. Yarbrough, it's me.”

Victor gasped, and he quickly asked, “Mr. Lawson, where have you been for the past two weeks? Also, why did my daughter disappear when you went missing? Don't forget that I hired you because of my daughter. If anything happens to her, you're not getting the prismatic crystal.”

Jonathan was thrilled to hear that, for that meant the prismatic crystal was still with Victor.

Instantly, Jonathan said, “Victor, there are two things we need to clarify. First of all, I have no obligation to protect your daughter according to the mission details. Therefore, you can keep dreaming if you're trying to hold me accountable for this. Second of all, I know where your daughter is, but I have to get the prismatic crystal first.”

Furious, Victor snarled, “You kidnapped my daughter, didn't you?”

Jonathan was speechless at that. “Have you lost your marbles? Why would I kidnap her?”

Victor froze for a second before realizing how foolish his guess was.

Jonathan would be able to get the prismatic crystal after completing his mission. There was no reason for him to kidnap his daughter.

“I have to see my daughter before I can give you the prismatic crystal,” Victor insisted.

“Victor, please open your eyes to the situation. I'm not bargaining with you. You can choose to give it to me or not, but if you don't, Divine Realm will be coming after you.”

Victor stiffened before bitterness became visible in his eyes. After a long while, he asked, “How is my daughter right now?”

“I only know where she previously was, and I don't know whether or not she has been moved. The more time you waste, the more danger your daughter will be in. I hope you know well what you're doing.”

Victor gritted his teeth and replied, “Fine. I'll give you the prismatic crystal.”

“Good. I'll come to Victory Enterprise to look for you right away. Wait for me downstairs.”

“Okay.”

Jonathan then ended the call.

Monroe, who was driving, was stupefied by the exchange. “Mr. Lawson, the Victor you were mentioning in the call isn't...”

Jonathan smiled. “We're on our way to Victory Enterprise right now. Who do you think Victor is?”

All colors drained from Monroe's face, and he squeezed out, “You couldn't have kidnapped his daughter, right?”

At that very moment, the one hundred and fifty thousand that Monroe had taken seemed a little too heavy for his wallet.

Jonathan rolled his eyes at him. “No.” Not wanting to waste any time explaining to Monroe, Jonathan continued, “If you don't believe me, I can get out of the car right now. However, you have to return all the money.”

Monroe inhaled sharply and blurted out, “I believe you! I do!”

A sly glint flashed past Jonathan's eyes.

Frankly, Jonathan could have told Victor where Briana was at.

However, he had been too kind previously, and all his kind acts ended up backfiring.

Hence, Jonathan decided to harden his heart and get what he wanted first.

Whether or not you can find Briana is none of my business.

All Jonathan was afraid of was how Victor might go mad if Briana was taken away. I should get the prismatic crystal first. He can do whatever he likes afterward.

One had to have a kind heart, but one could not be merciful.

A kind heart was not the same as being merciful, after all.

Not long after, Monroe brought Jonathan to Victory Enterprise.

Victor was anxiously waiting by the entrance of the building.

By then, it was four in the afternoon.

The sun in the afternoon was bright, but it was not hot for a March afternoon in a northern city.

In fact, Willowbank once had a snowstorm in May.

Once the cab stopped, Jonathan walked over to Victor.

The moment he saw Victor, his heart ached.

It was because Victor looked as if he had aged ten years in the blink of an eye.

Even though he was in his fifties, he had always given the impression of a strong, witty man to others.

However, with his back slightly hunched over, he just looked like a father who could not find his daughter.

When Jonathan walked over, Victor's eyes lit up. He hurried to the younger man and uttered, “Mr. Lawson, where is my daughter?”

At that, Jonathan felt a little embarrassed to mention the prismatic crystal. Nevertheless, before he said anything, Victor fished out a brocade box from his pocket.

“This is what you wanted, Mr. Lawson,” Victor said.

Jonathan took it. He had to open it to make sure he was getting the real deal.

Otherwise, if anything went wrong, he would not be able to hold Victor accountable.

Monroe quietly waited at the side.

A millionaire like Victor was someone Monroe could not imagine interacting with, after all.

When Jonathan opened the box, he saw a pebble inside.

There were five layers of colors in the pebble.

Jonathan picked up the pebble and mumbled under his breath, “Is this the prismatic crystal that Divine Realm is looking for? What use is it?” Unable to figure out anything by looking at it, he began carefully rubbing it.

Instantly, a warm wave traveled into Jonathan's body.

He could sense a pure positive energy within the prismatic crystal.

It looks like this really is the prismatic crystal.

According to the legend, the prismatic crystal was one of the materials used to fix the sky during the creation of the world, so Jonathan was certain that the prismatic crystal was going to be used in relation to alchemy.

After keeping the prismatic crystal, Jonathan said to Victor, “Briana and I were captured by the people from the organization behind Otto, but I've dealt with those people. Briana had fallen unconscious at that time, and I was weak. That was why I couldn't do anything to help her. Right now, she's at...”

Jonathan proceeded to tell Victor Briana's general location.

Victor's expression changed instantly, and he said, “That warehouse is one of the warehouses under my name. I never thought you'd be locked up there. No wonder the police couldn't find anything despite the long search.”

Right then, Victor's phone rang, and he quickly picked it up.

“What? My daughter has been found? This is wonderful news!” Victor exclaimed.

He then quickly added, “I'll be right there!”

Hearing that, Jonathan found himself relaxing as his uneasiness lessened.

After ending the call, Victor said to Jonathan, “Mr. Lawson, my daughter has called the cops. Indeed, she was in the warehouse the entire time. Now, she has been sent to the hospital. The cops said that she's mostly fine, just that she hasn't eaten for a while now.”

Jonathan smiled and said, “I'm glad to hear that. Hurry and go to her then.”

Victor nodded and hastily got into his car to speed to the hospital.

Having wrapped up that matter, Jonathan returned to Monroe's car.

“Mr. Lawson, where are we going now?” Monroe asked in an even more respectful tone than before.

“To your house. I want to rest for the night.”

“Of course.”

Jonathan was still unsure what in the world was Eonetara. Therefore, he was going to wait and see first.

An hour later, the cab stopped in front of an old building.

Monroe lived on the eight floor.

When they were on their way up, Jonathan asked Monroe, “How many people are in your house?”

Monroe replied, “I'm the only one here.”

Jonathan faltered in his steps for a moment before asking, “What about your family?”
