Chapter 24 Chef Of The Day

 

Polly smiled slightly and said, “There is a reason as to why I’m telling you this. It is to remind you not to look down on the Strikezone Martial Arts. You won’t be able to win them with just your strength. Randy invited a lot of witnesses for the final match that is happening in three days. All those witnesses are reputable masters in the martial arts world. You can talk it out with him before the match. The results of the match will not matter. In the future, you will never accept any challenges from Strikezone Martial Arts anymore, and they can’t take revenge on you as well.”

 

Jonathan’s eyes brightened. Randy is a disciple of Strikezone Martial Arts. With that title around his neck, he would need to maintain that reputation. If that is the case, it seems possible to do that.

“Why?” Jonathan looked at Polly and continued to ask, “Why are you helping me?”

Polly chuckled lightly and replied, “I am a businesswoman. Isn’t it normal for people who do business to be extremely sociable and look for better opportunities?”

 

Jonathan was a little skeptical. “Then wouldn’t it be a high-cost business for you? As soon as I defeat Randy, the disciples of Strikezone Martial Arts would start holding a grudge. Everyone would hate me. If they see you getting along with me, wouldn’t they hate you as well?”

 

Polly replied solemnly, “There’s no specific reason, actually. Money is not that important to me. However, you are very interesting, and I’ve taken a special interest. It’s just that simple.”

Jonathan raised his cup and exclaimed, “Cheers, then!”

 

After they were done drinking the wine, Jonathan bid Polly farewell and left. Before he left, though, Jonathan did something that made Polly speechless. He said, “Since you’re the one who asked me out to drink, you’re footing the bill!”

Polly laughed bitterly at that.

On the other hand, Jonathan took a taxi home after leaving the bar.

 

The next morning, he realized that it was rather inconvenient for him without a car. He was so used to having one. Now that it was gone, he felt a little empty.

However, Jonathan was not that shameless to go to Rose Couture in order to get the car. As long as the final match was not over yet, he would never step foot into Rose Couture.

Without hesitation, Jonathan went to a second-hand shop and used eighty thousand to buy a seemingly new AMC Gremlin. Even though the AMC Gremlin was not comparable to a BMW, Jonathan still felt better driving his own car.

At noon, Jonathan called Jennifer on the phone. His relationship with Jennifer right now was a little ambiguous. Nonetheless, it was also the best part in a relationship.

After she picked up the call, Jonathan told her about the car he had bought. He also told her where that sum of money came from. Jonathan then stated, “Jen, why don’t I pick you up from work tonight? I’ll buy some groceries first. We can cook together when we get back home.”

Upon hearing that, Jennifer’s face flushed as she felt her heart beat faster. The whole situation made it seem like they were already married. Nevertheless, Jennifer didn’t dislike it at all. With a shy voice, she replied, “Up to you.”
