Chapter 503 I Am A Killer

 

“Why should I? He obviously—” Suddenly, Margaret’s expression changed, and she stopped talking mid-sentence. A thought had occurred to her.

 

That night, without any rhyme or reason, more than a hundred members of the Smith family had been kidnapped by Timothy and taken to the warehouse. That night would have been the end of the Smith family if Jonathan had not shown up. The entire Smith family had almost been wiped out of Jazona that night.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Margaret shivered in horror at that thought.

“Mom…” Josephine tugged at Margaret’s sleeve pleadingly. The atmosphere had turned sour. Margaret softened her tone and said, “I’m doing this for your own good. You’re pregnant. You’re in a very delicate state, and he’s your husband. Shouldn’t he be taking better care of you?”

“Mom—”

Josephine’s head was pounding. However, just as she was about to speak, the doorbell sounded, interrupting her.

Ding-dong!

Everyone turned to look at the door.

The door flew open, and a young woman walked in, smiling brightly. She had her hair in a bun and a lollipop in her mouth.

“Hello! I’m looking for Jonathan!”

The entire Smith family turned to look at Jonathan.

Josephine’s eyes, in particular, were almost burning right through Jonathan’s head. She looked as if she were ready to swallow him whole.

“Xiara?” Jonathan called out in surprise, staring at the petite young lady standing at the door.

It was none other than Xiara, one of the top ten killers on the Dark Web. He had just seen her the day before.

“Jonathan, what are you guys eating? I’m hungry!”

Xiara strutted casually into the room, ignoring all the eyes staring at her. She sat down at the table, picked up a fork, and began helping herself to the food.

“Wait a minute. How did you get in? I have a lot of guards posted outside,” Jonathan asked, staring at Xiara in shock.

“Huh?” Xiara was sucking on her lollipop. She looked at Jonathan with big eyes and said, “Well, I brought down all those guards, but don’t worry! I would never dream of killing anyone on your territory!”

As she spoke, she picked up an empty plate and handed it to Jonathan.

“Get me some pasta, would you? I haven’t eaten all day. I’m starving!”

Jonathan was still lost in his daze. Before he could react, Josephine snatched the plate out of Xiara’s hand.

“Jonathan, who exactly is this?” Josephine asked in a low voice, stepping on Jonathan’s toes angrily.

“She is someone I met in Lumonburg,” Jonathan replied, trying not to wince from the pain in his toes.

Xiara flashed a cat-like smile at Josephine.

“You must be Mrs. Goldstein. When we were in Lumonburg, Jonathan was always talking about you. Your beauty blew me away when I first laid eyes on you earlier. If I were Jonathan, I would miss home all the time too.”

“Stop talking nonsense! I have never spoken about Josephine to you. What do you want?” Jonathan glared at Xiara.
