The Legendary Man

Chapter 128 A Trap
Subsequently, a woman in a long, white dress walked in.
She appeared rather young, seemingly in her twenties.
Her long hair was casually draped over her shoulders, rendering her very much elegant.
“Can I get your friend a drink, Mr. Cabot?” The woman merely stood by the door tactfully without disrupting them. Hearing that,
Graham turned to Jonathan. “What drink would you like to have, Mr. Goldstein?”
“Just plain water will do,” Jonathan answered casually.
He didn’t really like stimulating beverages such as coffee and the like.
“Sure.” The woman nodded in acknowledgment. Just when she was about to push open the door, she inadvertently caught a
glimpse of Jonathan’s countenance. For a moment, she fell into a trance and reflexively called out to him, “Boss?”
Boss?
That address brought Jonathan back to four years ago in a flash.
It’s been years since I’ve last heard anyone addressing me thus.
When he glanced over his shoulder to look at the woman, a glimmer of surprise flashed across his eyes. “Willow? Why are you
here?”
“It’s really you, Boss.” The woman, Willow Yandall, was finally convinced that she hadn’t gotten the wrong person after Jonathan
recognized her.
“The two of you are acquainted?” Graham was surprised when he saw that Jonathan turned out to be acquainted with the owner
of the café.
Considering his identity, why would he be acquainted with the owner of a modest café?

“Yeah.” Jonathan nodded in affirmation. “She used to be an employee of mine, but my company later went bankrupt and even
owed a ton of debts. After issuing them their last paycheck, I’ve never seen any of them anymore.”
Willow was an employee of the company he had started during his business venture four years ago, but he had lost contact with
her after going bankrupt.
I never expected to bump into her here!
“You had a company?” Shock was written all over Graham’s face.
He even had a company, and it even went bankrupt? This sounds just like a fantasy!
“Yup.” Jonathan nodded nonchalantly before shifting his gaze back to Willow. “Oh yes, I remember that you went back to your
hometown then, didn’t you? How did you come to open a café instead?”
“Well, I wanted to go back to my hometown back then, but my parents pressured me to get married as soon as I returned. In a fit
of pique, I left and started a business with tens of thousands.” Recalling the past, Willow couldn’t help sighing. “Alas, I’m not
suited to business. It’s been four years, yet I can’t even get my café off the ground. After so many years, it’s still half-dead. If it
weren’t for Mr. Cabot patronizing this café every so often, I’m afraid that it would’ve gone bankrupt a long time ago!”
As she said that, she cast Graham a grateful look.
“I just like the environment here.” Slight embarrassment crept up Graham’s features.
“Ah, let’s not talk about this anymore. After having not seen you for such a long time, Boss, I thought you’d left Jadeborough.”
Willow couldn’t help pinning her gaze on Jonathan.
Back then, he was exceedingly successful. He was just in his twenties, but he helmed a company with a few hundred employees
and managed to propel the company’s market value to a hundred million in just a year! If it weren’t for that incident back then, his
company wouldn’t have gone bankrupt and owed a shedload of debts, forcing him to leave Jadeborough in a cloud of disgrace!
“I did leave Jadeborough, but I came back.” Jonathan gazed out the window in melancholy as his thoughts drifted.

If it weren’t for my company going bankrupt back then and people hunting me down, I wouldn’t have broken into the military
camp by accident. And in turn, I wouldn’t have obtained the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique by coincidence and became

Asura who dominated the world!
“T-Then, did you meet Tavion when you came back this time?” Willow inquired in a mere whisper.
“Tavion?” Upon hearing that name, Jonathan’s expression changed drastically. “Isn’t Tavion gone?”
Tavion Callahan was none other than Jonathan’s business partner when he started his company.
Back then, it was because he was duped into signing a bad contract that the company went bankrupt and owed a slew of debts.
After the company went under, he disappeared mysteriously without any news. One day, his family told me that he had
committed suicide and even left me a suicide note! In it, he apologized to me and promised to repay me a hundredfold in the
next life. Later, I even attended his funeral, giving his family the few tens of thousands that were my entire fortune. After doing
so, I only had a little over a hundred left! But from the sound of her remark, it seems that Tavion is still alive?
“Didn’t you know?” Willow gaped at him with astonishment etched on her face when she heard that. “Back then, I thought he had
passed on as well. Later, however, I heard that not only is he alive, but his business is also flourishing! Rumor has it that his net
worth has long since gone beyond billions!”
“Who did you hear that from?” Jonathan’s gaze abruptly went cold.
Tavion is still alive? How is that possible? I saw his casket lowered into the ground with my own eyes during the funeral back
then!
“A lot of people said that...” Willow cautiously stole a glance at him. “Besides, I even saw his interview in the newspaper some
time ago. Wait a moment, Boss! I’ll go and find it for you.”
After saying that, she hurriedly left the private room.
Soon, she came back with a newspaper and handed it to Jonathan. “Look, Boss, isn’t this Tavion Callahan?”
Sure enough, it was Tavion.
Although he had changed quite a bit compared to four years ago, Jonathan still recognized him at a single glance, no matter the
changes.
“It’s really him!”

A layer of frost blanketed Jonathan’s gaze.
On the newspaper were the words: The newest billionaire in the province with a net worth of three billion, one of the ten most
outstanding men in Jazona, the trailblazer of the times!
His gaze was chilly as he stared at the introduction of Tavion as well as the photo of him in a suit and tie in the newspaper, so
much so that he seemed moments away from committing murder.
So he faked his death! I never expected someone to actually imitate the plot of those lousy and ridiculous television dramas and
act it out for me in real life! All these years, I never once suspected him even though it was because of him that the company
went bankrupt then!
At the sight of the man who was supposed to have committed suicide four years ago alive and kicking, he couldn’t control the
murderous fury that surged within him that very moment despite having gone to battle everywhere and was no stranger to
bloodshed. After all, not only was the man accepting interviews from various media outlets, but he was doing so well that his net
worth had exceeded three billion.
From the look of things, the bad contract back then wasn’t a trap dug for him but especially for me!
“A-Are you okay, Boss?” Fear instantly struck Willow at the wintry look in his eyes.
Good Lord! It’s really terrifying! In all my years, I’ve never seen such a petrifying gaze! It’s as though he’s looking at a person
whose death is inevitable instead of a living human!
“I’m fine.” Blithely tossing the newspaper onto the table, Jonathan turned his gaze to her. “Do you know where he is? I’d like to
pay him a visit.”
