Alvin stared intently at Jonathan, his eyes flashing with deep hatred.

This can't be possible! No way! Jonathan's nothing but a loser!

When Alvin first set his eyes on Josephine, he had sent someone to investigate her ex-husband and realized the latter was merely a live-in son-in-law who married into the Smith family because he was hunted down. If Josephine had not saved his life, Jonathan would have been killed by his enemy ages ago.

There's no way this loser is a commander! Even if all the men in this world are dead, Jonathan would still be too useless to be one.

“Who the hell are you, Jonathan Goldstein?” Alvin demanded, his jaw tightly clenched.

As the only son of the chairman of Langford Group, it was humiliating for him to be forced to a corner by a useless live-in son-in-law. What will others think of me if this gets out?

“I'm someone you can't afford to trifle with!” Jonathan scoffed. “Remember, if I ever find you pester Josephine again, Langford Group shall cease to exist!”

It was an explicit threat.

Infuriated by his blatant intimidation, Alvin glared at him viciously. If looks could kill, Jonathan would have been ripped into pieces by then.

Alas, his glare did not even faze Jonathan, who turned to Josephine and said, “Josephine, I don't know what trouble your family has gotten into, but no matter what it is, I can deal with it. You don't have to marry someone you have no feelings for just because of a trivial matter!”

A trivial matter?

Upon hearing his words, those around him raised their brows skeptically.

It was common knowledge that the Smith family had offended the most influential family in Jadeborough—the Blackwood family. In fact, when the Blackwood family sneezed, Jadeborough would catch a cold.
