The Legendary Man

Chapter 165 The Turner Family

When Jonathan said that, he wore a relaxed expression on his face.

Such scars were all too common to him, for the battlefield was a fight to the death.

Only by killing one’s opponent would one have the opportunity to live. And he had encountered near brushes with death countless times in the past few years.

“Didn’t you say you merely strategized for Zachary? Why would you be on the battlefield?” Josephine bit her lip hard.

She had always thought that he was far removed from the battlefield and had never even been to the frontlines, merely having followed Zachary around and devised battle plans for the man in the past few years.

But the second she caught sight of his back, she instantly understood why Zachary had given him a bank card with an unlimited credit line, lent him tens of millions, and even sent someone over to convey his felicitations during the Smith family’s annual party. In truth, Jonathan had exchanged all that with his life!

“No one can be far removed from the battlefield while in the midst of war.” Chuckling, Jonathan remarked, “During critical junctures, even the cooks in the kitchen have to go on the battlefield with guns and all, let alone me.”

“Is that the kind of life you’ve been living for the past few years?” Josephine sounded a tad morose.

She realized that she had misunderstood the man.

A few years ago, I’d always thought that he was a cowardly man who could never make anything of himself, having no sense of masculinity at all. Regardless of how the Smith family insulted him, he never once uttered a word of protest. Back then, I truly despised him. At times, I even regretted marrying him on a whim. Now, however, it seems that I have too many misconceptions about him. After all, how could a timid and cowardly person go on the battlefield, much less have a back covered in scars?

“I suppose so,” Jonathan replied indifferently.

In those years I’d been in the military camp, I was indeed living a life filled with bloodshed. It was either kill or be killed. My position as Asura was never earned through conspiracy or trickery. Instead, I secured it with my life, one slash at a time.

“Let’s not talk about that anymore. Nothing happened at the construction site this afternoon, right?” Noticing Josephine’s downcast mood, Jonathan surreptitiously changed the subject.
