The Legendary Man

Chapter 505 Commander In Chief
Hearing that, the middle-aged man put aside the folder in his hand. Jonathan’s photo and his biography were on the file, and
there was a sign that indicated this was a confidential file on the bottom right corner.
“Tell me, what did you find out?” the middle-aged man asked with a smile as he picked up his cup of coffee and took a sip.
The young man straightened himself and answered, “Commander, I’ve found out that Jonathan led the armies of Lumonburg to
destroy the Grand Forest Resort on Grand Forest Mountain five days ago. It seems that Broderick of the Osborne family was
wounded in the process. Other than that, the Office of Government Affairs has been interacting closely with Jay Osborne
recently. I’m sure that respectable families have allied with the Office of Government Affairs. The only family that is not involved
is the Xydias family.”
The young man continued, “The Goldstein family is the strongest now after Jonathan caused chaos in Yaleview last time.
Meanwhile, the Xydias family relied on the Department of Transportation in the Office of Government Affairs to build their
foundation. Now, they are one of the up-and-coming affluent families. With respectable families helping the Xydias family now,
I’m sure they will make something for themselves.”
The middle-aged man swirled the cup in his hand. “They are just an affluent family. We have nothing to be afraid of. Besides
keeping an eye on Kendrick Xydias, who works in the Department of Transportation, we don’t have to care about the rest. Now.
Tell me more about the Goldstein family.” He pointed at Jonathan’s file.
“Okay. Quinten from the Xydias family is interested in the head of the Goldstein family, Sophia Goldstein. Even though Quinten is
a smart and talented man, he is also a playboy who has been attracted to Sophia for a very long time. According to our
information, after Jonathan was chased out of the Goldstein family ten years ago, he was not close with anyone in the Goldstein
family. However, things were different between him and Sophia. Both of them are close. Regarding the Goldstein family’s
business, even though they have many businesses in different fields, they still can’t escape the Department of Transportation...”
The young man then went on to talk about the members of the Goldstein family, the current business model of the Goldstein
family, and more. He went on for half an hour without pausing as though he knew more about the Goldstein family than the
Goldsteins.
As he listened to the young man’s stories, the middle-aged man frowned. It wasn’t until the young man finished talking that he
opened his eyes after taking a deep breath.

The young man exhaled deeply and said, “Commander, this is all the information about the Goldstein family.”
The middle-aged man stood up slowly. “Get them prepared to help the Xydias family. We need to send the Goldstein family into
the depth of despair. Meanwhile, do anything you can, no matter what, to ensure Sophia’s life becomes a living hell!”
“Understood!” The young man turned around and left.
The middle-aged man looked at the sky in the direction of Jazona.
At this moment, both he and Jonathan were quiet as they stared at the sky. What they didn’t was that they were staring at each
other from miles apart.
Joshua Whitley’s eyes were calm as he looked at Jonathan’s file sitting there before him. There was a sense of assurance and
composure evident in his stance.
Joshua shouldn’t be worried about anything as the commander-in-chief of Chanaea. However, he was concerned about many
things currently.
I should be the most prominent leader in Chanaea as the commander-in-chief. However, most of Chanaea’s military power is in
the hands of Jonathan. The Office of Government Affairs should work closely with me as the lead. But in reality, respectable
families place the utmost importance on the commercial economy. That’s why they sent more people to the Office of Government
Affairs.
These people that respectable families implanted in the government offices are everywhere, from Yaleview to other small areas.
They have formed a perfect chain connection. The results would be dire if one were to remove all of them now. The entire Office
of Government affairs will be paralyzed.
These were the conclusions that Joshua had come to after becoming the commander-in-chief. There was nothing he could do to
achieve his dreams and goals. Like the king in a poker game, although his career looked terrific, he had no real power.
Respectable families controlled the Office of Government Affairs. Joshua’s title as the commander-in-chief was as good as
nothing.
The military and political powers should be combined to maximize their benefits for a country. Now that the military forces were
gone and others controlled the political power, Joshua’s position as commander-in-chief existed in name only.
“If I was the one who got into the army in the beginning, even though I might not be as good as you, I could also unite half of the
soldiers in five years. If that were the case, respectable families wouldn’t have a place to stand now. It’s you, Jonathan, who

cares about so many things,” Joshua remarked as he stared at Jonathan’s photo.
Even though both of them had never met before, Joshua had always treated Jonathan as the only person who could understand
his feelings.
One of them had used three years to create Asura’s Office and resolve the war. The other man had used ten years to climb from
the position of director of the Intelligence Bureau to the commander-in-chief of Yaleview. Both of them were legends, and their
experiences in life couldn’t be replicated. Perhaps that was the reason Joshua cherished Jonathan as his rival.
“Jonathan, because of you, I regretted not joining the army for three years. But now, I understand. Your rise to power is what I
need! You dared to bomb Grand Forest Mountain, which means you know we can’t let respectable families do anything they
want anymore. Even though Chanaea is now at the peak of its glory, it is slowly decaying on the inside because of parasites like
these respectable families.
“I’ve imagined how we would bump into each other with our military and political powers. But I’ve never expected us to meet
each other this way. I have to do this for the sake of Chanaea. I will ask you for forgiveness myself when I destroy these
respectable families. But then, before this... the Goldstein family has to be destroyed.”
Although his words were heavy, he sounded as if he was talking to an old friend.
In Jadeborough, Jonathan was staring in the direction of the east when a sudden tingling sensation rose in his heart. However,
the feeling disappeared so quickly that he couldn’t wrap his mind around it. Even so, the feeling left a sense of wariness in
Jonathan.
According to the cultivation method manual, as a cultivator slowly improved on his cultivation level, the cultivator would become
more and more sensitive to things that were about to happen in the future. They could sense the impending events.
In reality, not only a cultivator could sense that, but an average person could do the same too. However, a cultivator’s sense
would be more accurate.
“Are you okay, Mr. Goldstein?” Zachary asked softly when he realized that Jonathan didn’t look good.
“Of course,” Jonathan answered before walking into the mansion. He stopped after taking two steps and then turned around. “Let
Andy know that he needs to keep an eye on the recent news in Yaleview. If anything unusual happens, inform me right away!”
