Chapter 35 Making Use Of Him

“What are you talking about? Did I mention anything of that sort? Why don’t I remember saying that?” Margaret started playing dumb as she had said those words in fear of Jonathan dragging the family down. Since he was no longer the good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Smith family, there was no way she would allow him to sever ties with them.

“Mom—”

When Josephine was about to say something because she couldn’t take it anymore, Margaret yelled at her, “Shut up!”

A few seconds later, she carried on with the conversation and added, “Jonathan, weren’t you thinking of getting married to Josephine again? Just consider it done! You’re the son-in-law of the Smith family again from today onward!”

It was Jonathan’s turn to stop Margaret. He rebuked, “What sort of nonsense are you talking about when Josephine and I have never filed for divorce?”

Anyway, since you’re also a member of the Smith family, don’t you think it’s better to appoint someone from the family as the person in charge of the Blackwood family’s business?”

Instead of promising Margaret, Jonathan suggested, “Why don’t you approach Harrison and see if he’s willing to hand it over to you since he’s currently the person in charge of everything?”

Margaret wouldn’t stop cursing her son-in-law in her mind, but she did a great job keeping her emotions to herself. “Jonathan, stop joking around. It’s not like he would know who I am. Why don’t you approach him on our behalf since he’s your subordinate? He was kneeling in front of you earlier, wasn’t he?”
