Chapter 129 I Was The Villain
“If I’m not mistaken, he’s in Jazona.” Willow again studied Jonathan warily. “Boss, is there some conflict between you and
Tavion?”
From the look in Jonathan’s eyes, she could distinctly sense that the man was livid.
“No. I just want to know the truth about the incident back then!” Jonathan replied coldly.
I don’t care about the hundred million loss suffered by the company back when it went bankrupt. Even a billion is just a number
to me today, much less a hundred million. I only want to know whether the incident back then was a trap he’d laid for me by
colluding with someone else! The thing I detest most in my life is betrayal, especially when the person who betrayed me was
someone I once trusted most!
“Should I have someone investigate his address, Mr. Goldstein?” Graham seemed to have perceived something from his words.
It wasn’t just Willow, for even he felt a shiver running down his spine at the man’s frosty gaze.
“Yeah.” Jonathan nodded. “I want the answer as soon as possible.”
“Okay. I’ll have someone investigate it right away!” When Graham had said that, he picked up his phone and made a call without
a second’s delay. “Luke, please investigate someone for me. His name is Tavion Callahan, and he’s the chairman of Tavion
Group. Investigate his company and also his address. You only have ten minutes. Is that clear?”
While he hadn’t been in Chanaea much in recent years, his influence in Jazona wasn’t to be underestimated.
After all, Graham Group had mushroomed all over Jazona a few years ago.
Although he had been abroad in the past few years, and his influence was no longer as substantial as before, it was still a piece
of cake for him to investigate someone.
“There’ll be news very soon, Mr. Goldstein.” Graham looked at Jonathan after hanging up the phone.
“Great,” Jonathan said. “By the way, where were we earlier?”
He initially wanted to talk to Graham about the collaboration with the Smith family but was unexpectedly interrupted by Willow.

“We were talking about the ecological park project,” Graham replied.
“Ah, yes!” In an even voice, Jonathan continued, “I’ve already told Harrison to hand the ecological park project to the Smith
family and have them handle it. However, the Smith family doesn’t have a real estate firm or a construction team. When the time
comes, send someone over to discuss the details with them. In other words, Graham Group will be collaborating with the Smith
family on the ecological park project. They’ll be responsible for the specific plan and design, while you’ll be supplying the
manpower and advancing the funds.”
“Sure! Whatever you say, Mr. Goldstein!” Graham hastily nodded, having no objections at all.
Ultimately, Graham Group belonged to Jonathan, and he was merely managing it on his behalf.
As such, he naturally had to go along with Jonathan’s orders.
“Send someone experienced to work with the Smith family. They have no experience in real estate, so you’ve got to keep a close
eye on things,” Jonathan reminded once more.
He was worried that something might go wrong since Josephine had never been a general manager or had any experience in
real estate.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Goldstein! If anything happens, I’ll personally seek you out and apologize!” Graham reassured with a chuckle.
Jonathan nodded in response. No sooner had Graham’s words fallen than his phone rang.

“Hello?”
“You’ve gotten his information?”
“Okay, got it.”
After a few brief utterances, Graham hung up the phone and turned his gaze to Jonathan. “Mr. Goldstein, it’s confirmed that
Tavion Callahan is currently living in No. 10 Villa, Ataraxy Heights. His company is located in Tavion Tower. Rumor has it that he
spent more than a billion to construct the building.”
“Tavion Tower, huh?” Hearing the location, Jonathan casually lit a cigarette. “That’s quite a nice name. I just wonder how his
building that cost over a billion looks like.”

Four years ago, he went bankrupt with me and owed a ton of debts. That aside, he was even hunted down by his debtors! But in
the blink of an eye, he has now become a billionaire after four years and has spent more than a billion to construct Tavion Tower!
Recalling how I foolishly gave his family the tens of thousands I had left during his funeral back then, even I find myself pathetic!
“Should I handle this matter for you, Mr. Goldstein?” There was no way Graham couldn’t tell that the person named Tavion had
angered the man.
“No, thanks. I’ll handle it myself!” Getting to his feet, Jonathan reminded, “Don’t forget about everything I told you just now.”
Having said that, he strode away.
“I’ll drive you, Mr. Goldstein!” Graham hurriedly followed him out.
“No, it’s okay,” Jonathan declined placidly.
The moment he stepped out of the café, a chill entered his eyes without warning.
A few minutes later, he hailed a taxi and headed to Jazona.
When the taxi driver heard that he was going to Tavion Tower, he couldn’t help glancing at Jonathan and inquiring, “Are you
working at Tavion Tower, lad?”
“No.”
Jonathan shook his head.
“Ah, my mistake, then!” Flashing him a smile, the taxi driver gushed, “Let me tell you something. The owner of Tavion Tower is
incredible! I heard that he’s only in his twenties, but he already has a net worth of several billion. Also, I heard that the
construction of Tavion Tower alone cost over a billion! Say, how could he be so capable when he’s so young?”
Several billion was an astronomical sum to a taxi driver, and he didn’t even dare imagine having that much money.
“You’re quite well-informed,” Jonathan commented in a detached voice.
“Of course!” Chortling, the taxi driver continued, “I even heard that he used to have a business in Jadeborough. Sometime later,
his business partner was tricked into signing a bad contract, leading to the company’s bankruptcy. It was also rumored that it was
because of his business partner that he became riddled with debts! If it weren’t for his resilience that he pulled through, that

business partner of his would’ve doomed him long ago! To my way of thinking, he’s really something else! Not only did he pay off
all his debts, but he even started from scratch and created Tavion Group with a market value of several billion! If my son is half
as capable as him, I wouldn’t be still driving a taxi on the streets at this age!”
As he spoke of Tavion, the envy on his face was plainly visible.
Conversely, Jonathan’s expression turned all the colder when he heard the taxi driver’s effusive spiel. “Where did you hear that?”
Tavion’s business partner sabotaged him and even got him riddled with debts? Later, he even paid off the debts resiliently? In
other words, I was the villain who caused the company to go bankrupt back then and even left a pile of debts in my wake?
