The Legendary Man

Chapter 151 Pretending To Be Rich

Ten minutes later, their car stopped in front of a busy mall.

When Jonathan saw how lively it was, he was dazed by the sight. Four years ago, the building was dilapidated while its surroundings were deserted, not a soul to be seen anywhere nearby.

Back then, the place would be covered in darkness at night as it didn’t even have a street lamp.

However, the old building was now gone. In its place was a ten-story building and a plaza right smack in the center of the business district.

The plaza was brightly lit with crowds coming and going. Outside of it, there were many couples holding hands and hugging each other. Once in a while, one could even find some couples kissing unabashedly, as if they didn’t care about the looks passersby gave them.

“Isn’t it great to be young?” Looking at the couple, Jonathan couldn’t help but sigh. “Darling, why don’t we kiss too?”

Ignoring his question, Josephine shot him a glare. “Can’t you be a little more serious?”

“What’s wrong with kissing my own wife?” Jonathan pursed his lips. Looking in the plaza’s direction, he commented, “Back when this place was old and rundown, the street lamps would go off whenever it rained as the power would be cut. Furthermore, the monthly rental back then was only five hundred. But in the blink of an eye, it’s now transformed into a mall!”

Shaking his head, Jonathan subconsciously took Josephine’s hand and exclaimed, “Come on, Darling, let’s go in and take a look!”

However, the moment he touched her hand, Josephine retracted it instantly as if she had been jolted by an electrical shock. Ever since she was young, no man other than Connor had touched her hand before.

Even though she was no longer that resentful of Jonathan psychologically, her physical reflex was instinctual.

“What’s wrong? Did my hand electrocute you?” Jonathan lowered his gaze to look at her.

“No, I just—” Before she could finish, Jonathan interrupted her, “Then what are you avoiding me for?” Without another word, he took her hand and didn’t give her another chance to decline.

“You…”

Left without a choice, Josephine allowed him to lead her into the plaza.
