Chapter 23 Caspian Was Never a Coward

Jonathan’s words caused the atmosphere in the room to go stale.

Naturally, Willow didn’t want the gathering to become so awkward. She picked up the glass and said to Jonathan, “Mr. Green, my husband is quite the straightforward man. Let me toast this drink to you.” (1)

Jonathan smiled when he saw Willow backing down. “Okay. Feel free to have as many as you like. Cheers!

After saying that, Jonathan picked up his glass and downed it.

Just when Willow planned to down the glass, Caspian grabbed her glass.

“Nob*dy can force you to do things you don’t want to!” he said:

Jonathan had been eyeing Willow up and down since just now. Caspian could no longer endure it.

The sudden turn of events caused Jonathan’s expression to freeze.

“Caspian, you shouldn’t butt in,” Willow quickly reprimanded. Jonathan’s murderous gaze caused her to

feel afraid.

“Ms. Stewart, I didn’t expect your husband to be so ignorant! Being so bold doesn’t do him any good,

though,” Jonathan said.

“I will definitely lecture him about this when we get back. Mr. Green, please don’t mind him.”

Fearing that Jonathan would resort to violence, Willow could only try to smooth things over with him.

“My boyfriend is quite influential in the east of Southlake City. Someb*dy tried to create trouble in the club some time ago. Now, he’s currently in the hospital!” Xenia flaunted.

“That’s not considered much. When I first got into this, everyone was fighting for territory …”

Jonathan started to boast about his experience happily. He even mentioned some illegal things that he

had done, such as killing people.

“Sweetheart, you’re amazing! You’re so capable,” Xenia praised in a dainty voice.

Everyone was a bit disgusted by Xenia and Jonathan’s back and forth. What was originally meant to be a casual gathering of ex-classmates had now turned into them showing off.
