The Legendary Man

Chapter 80 Graham Group
After leaving, Jonathan didn’t return to No. 1 Villa. Instead, he gave Harrison a call.
The moment the call got through, Harrison’s voice rang out. “Mr. Goldstein, how can I help you?”
“Are there any antique shops in Jadeborough? I would like to buy a painting,” Jonathan casually remarked. Actually, there were
many paintings in his official residence, and all of them were worth hundreds of millions.
However, the Smith Group’s annual party was tomorrow. Hence, it was too much to ask for those paintings to be airlifted over.
“Of course there are. But, the paintings there aren’t really compatible with your status.” After a slight hesitation, Harrison added,
“Coincidentally, there’s an auction tonight at Jadeborough, and I heard there will be some paintings on the block. Would you be
interested in taking a look?”
“An auction?” Jonathan was surprised. He didn’t expect a third-tier city like Jadeborough to actually organize an auction.
“That’s right. Not only are there paintings on sale, but there are also meteorites, elixirs, and whatnot. However, no one is sure if
they’re real or fake.”
Harrison was obviously not interested in them. However, Jonathan raised his eyebrow when his interest was piqued by the
meteorites and elixirs. Unexpectedly, he asked, “What time is the auction?”
“Eight in the evening. Are you going?”
“Mmm-hmm, pick me up from Edenic Heights later.”
Jonathan wasn’t really keen on the paintings. Instead, he was intrigued by the meteorites and elixirs. To others, such items might
be nothing but scams.
But to him, it was not necessarily the case.
Back then, if he hadn’t trespassed the army camp by accident and chance upon the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique, there
was no way he could conquer and unite the nation within three years.
Consequently, he became Asura because of that.

......
Time flew by in a blink of an eye.
When it was one in the afternoon, Josephine came home on purpose from the Smith Group. She had wanted to accompany
Jonathan to report for duty at the real estate firm.
In truth, she was checking on him to see if he was lying to her and whether he actually found a job.
“Darling, do you really intend on going to the office with me?” Jonathan began to worry. It was almost two, and yet, there was no
news from Andrew still.
Therefore, he wasn’t sure if Andrew had managed to acquire the real estate firm yet.
“Or else?” Jonathan stared earnestly at him. “Jonathan, tell me the truth. Is all of what you told me earlier nothing but lies?”
“Of course not!” Jonathan denied it at once. There was no way he would admit it at such a crucial juncture.
“Where is your office? I’ll drive you there!” Josephine didn’t want to waste any time. Taking out the car key, she turned on the
engine of the Lamborghini.
After all, she didn’t have much time. After sending Jonathan to this office, the still needed to go back to hers to decorate the
place for the annual party.
“For the life of me, I can’t remember!” Jonathan pinched his forehead in frustration. “Why don’t I make a call to ask?”
“Go ahead.”
Josephine looked earnestly at him.
“I’m going outside to make the call.” Picking up his phone, Jonathan walked out as if he was going to. The moment he stepped
out of the house, he ran into one of the soldiers who was disguised as a civilian.
When the soldier saw Jonathan, he almost saluted by reflex. However, Jonathan interrupted him, “Enough, stop wasting time. Is
it done?”
“Yes, Commander!” the soldier replied in a quavering voice. He was so nervous that he was already drenched in sweat.

It was understandable that he felt that way. After all, he was standing in front of the great Asura who had defeated all the nation’s
enemies.
“Which company?”
“Graham Group,” the soldier answered anxiously.
“Graham Group, right?” Jonathan returned to the mansion without turning back. The moment he entered, he looked in
Josephine’s direction. “Darling, I finally remembered. It’s Graham Group!”
“Graham Group?” Josephine was shocked by the name. “Are you sure it’s Graham Group?”
“What about it?” Jonathan asked in surprise.
Josephine sounded as if there was something wrong with Graham Group.
“The Graham Group is Jadeborough’s top real estate firm, and the company is worth billions. In fact, half of the buildings here
were developed by them. Also, I heard that they are very demanding in terms of academic qualifications. One has to be a
graduate from a top-tier university in order to get an interview, and that also applies to their lowest positions. If I recall correctly,
aren’t you a graduate from a second-tier university?” Josephine gave Jonathan a curious look.
“Is that so? I never heard anything about their requirements for academic qualifications.” Jonathan sneakily tried to change the
subject. “It might be because I went through the backdoor?”
After shooting Jonathan another unconvinced look, Josephine didn’t pursue the matter further.
While they were driving out of Edenic Heights, Josephine remarked, “No matter how you got into the company, you cannot be as
nonchalant as you have previously been. I heard that the company is very competitive and strict. If you fail to do your work, they
might sack you anytime. So, don’t get yourself fired in your first week there.”
“There’s no way they’re going to fire me,” Jonathan quipped with a grin. “Who knows, they might be begging me to stay after a
few months.”
Fire me? You have got to be kidding! I’m going to take over their company and be their new chairman. I’m not going there to be
an ordinary employee. Have you ever seen a company fire its chairman before?

“Also, you had better stop your affinity for boasting when you’re at work. No one is going to tolerate it there.” Josephine glared at
him before flooring the accelerator.
However, when they were near Graham Group, Josephine didn’t drive straight in. Instead, she stopped at a supermarket nearby.
After a while, Josephine returned with a red plastic bag in hand.
“What did you buy?” Jonathan was surprised when Josephine handed him the bag.
“Cigarettes and some drinks.” Josephine casually replied. “When you arrive at the office, you had better be humble and keep
your bad habits in check so that others won’t resent you. Also, if someone asks for a cigarette, don’t be stingy and give it out
generously. Once you run out, I’ll buy you some more. Also, it’s different working in an office. You will be faced with many
competitors. If you don’t know these unspoken rules, others will quickly ostracize you.”
When Josephine educated Jonathan on the politics of an office, Jonathan listened helplessly with a wry smile on his face.
Why is she treating me like a naive newbie, to the extent of reminding me to treat others to a cigarette?
“I understand.” Jonathan didn’t protest even though he didn’t care about such methods. Nevertheless, he was appreciative of the
thought that Josephine had put into it. “Darling, in order to thank you, I’ll reward you with a kiss!”
“Stop fooling around. We have arrived at your office. Now, get down!” Josephine shoved him aside the moment the car stopped
at the ground floor of Graham Group.
