The Legendary Man

Chapter 127 Trust

“Jonathan, be serious!” Josephine couldn’t resist giving him the side-eye.

“Look, I knew you wouldn’t believe me!” Jonathan chuckled at the sight of Josephine’s furrowed brows. “I told you before, right? Three years ago, Zachary and I went on a conquest. That was when I met Thierry. Back then, he was just an ordinary soldier. Later, I suggested to Zachary that he was capable of taking charge of the Divine Dragon Guards, and Zachary took in my suggestion. Thus, he owed me a favor.”

What Jonathan said was true, to some extent.

When he first got to know Thierry, the latter was indeed an ordinary soldier. However, it wasn’t he who made that suggestion; it was Zachary who suggested for Thierry to lead the Divine Dragon Guards.

Jonathan was the one who established Four Asura Guards, so without his approval, Thierry wouldn’t get to lead the Divine Dragon Guards.

“Really?” Josephine cast him a doubtful look.

If Thierry Cloutier owed Jonathan a favor, why would he get down on his knees before Jonathan?

“Why would I lie to you?” Jonathan chuckled and ran a finger over Josephine’s nose affectionately. “Darling, it’ll be midnight when we get home. Why don’t we stay out for tonight?”

“Where should we go, then?” Josephine’s brow furrowed as she gave him a surveying look.

“The hotel, of course!” Jonathan cleared his throat in embarrassment. “It’ll be late when we get back home. Everyone else must be asleep. What if we wake them up? We can get a room at the hotel and share the same bed.”

“Are you sure you don’t want to disturb them?” Josephine rolled her eyes in exasperation.

It was clear what Jonathan had in mind.

“Of course,” Jonathan answered. “If you don’t trust me, we can have separate blankets. How does that sound?”

“It’s a bad idea!” Josephine retorted, glowering at him. “Let’s head back home. I need to head to Graham Group tomorrow to take over the ecological park development project!”

“Nope!” Josephine answered.
