The Legendary Man

Chapter 107 A Warning

If he hasn’t any value to be utilized, would the Smith family tolerate a deadbeat like him? Anyhow, he’s still a worthless piece of trash in my eyes, even if he now has connections to the King of War! When I’ve used him to build a relationship with the King of War, I’ll immediately give him the boot!

“What are you saying, Mom!” Josephine frowned deeply, finding her words all too reprehensible.

“I’m just speaking the truth!” Snorting, Margaret urged, “Think about it this way, Josephine. Even if the Smith family doesn’t use him, others will still utilize him, no? Don’t forget that he now has the King of War backing him up! Aren’t the four prominent families and Harrison using him as well? Don’t forget that nobody stepped forward to help him when he was at the end of his rope three years ago, not Harrison nor the four prominent families!”

Undeniably, she had an exceedingly glib tongue that could twist the truth around to justify her actions.

Before I accidentally barged into the military camp and became the almighty Asura three years ago, how was Harrison going to make my acquaintance even if he wanted to do so?

Nevertheless, Jonathan didn’t want to waste his breath with her since it would make no difference however much he explained things to someone like her. Instead, he turned to Josephine and inquired, “Do you want to be the general manager, Josephine?”

Do I? Or do I not?

Josephine wavered in her determination.

I would be lying if I said no. I’ve been working at Smith Group for nearly five years, yet I’m still an ordinary employee. And that was if it were nicely put. Bluntly speaking, I’m merely a glorified gofer. All the dirty and thankless tasks fall on me, but none of the merits belong to me! However, I majored in finance and economics! The other members of the Smith family who joined the company with me—Uncle Miguel and Uncle Ezra’s children—are either chief financial officers or department managers. I’m the only one who’s ostracized in the company. I perform the best, but I never get promoted or enjoy any pay raise!

But what can I do about that? Grandpa doesn’t favor Dad, so he also disdains me. If I were given a chance, I’d definitely let the facts prove that I’m on par with them all! However, if I can only obtain that opportunity by using Jonathan, then I’d rather not have it!
