Chapter 121
The Legendary Man
Chapter 121 A Beast The Special Forces?
Everyone blanched in horror at the mention of the Special Forces.
The Special Forces were under the jurisdiction of the Jazona Military District.
The aim of the Special Forces was not to arrest but to kill the criminal.
Oh, no! Weâre screwed!
That was Josephineâs first thought.
Iâm so doomed! I canât believe Jonathan dared to resist arrest and shoot the deputy police chief! Does he have a death wish?
âHave you gone mad, Jonathan? Do you know what youâre doing? After assaulting a police officer, are you resisting arrest? Youâre not a cat with nine lives!â Josephine snapped as anger stirred within her.
She didnât bother hiding the disappointment she had for Jonathan.
Heâs really a disappointment! I thought he would at least change a bit after three years, but heâs still the same. Evidently, old habits die hard. He never thinks twice and acts recklessly! This time, even my family has been dragged into his mess.
He was utterly confident of himself, for the Four Asura Guards were established by him. Even the Special Forces were under the jurisdiction of the Four Asura Guards.
If they dare to take action against me, they are doomed!
âYou are mad beyond saving!â Josephineâs face turned pale as she quivered with anger. It had never crossed her mind that Jonathan would kick up such a huge fuss at the class reunion.
Not only did he beat up the deputy police chiefâs son, he even assaulted the police officers and resisted arrest!
He also fired a shot in the deputy police chiefâs direction without any fear for his own life.
âJonathan, Iâm really sorry. It was all my fault. Iâm sorry for causing trouble!â Even a fool would realize the severity of the problem, let alone Tanya.
After all, the Special Forces were deployed, sealing Jonathanâs fate.
âThis has nothing to do with you. I just didnât like that he was bullying you!â Jonathan replied, casting an indifferent look at Nick, who was hiding behind his father.
Does he think he can do anything he wants just because his father is the deputy police chief?
âYou brat! Donât get ahead of yourself. Doomsday is coming for you!â Nick declared, clenching his jaw in anger.
Ha! The Special Forces have been summoned. Jonathan is going to die soon! So what if heâs good at fighting? Heâs no match for a dozen rifles!
âOh? I think doomsday is coming for you, though,â Jonathan retorted. He then ignored him and turned to Tanya. âIs he your ex-boyfriend?â he asked gently.
Tanya responded with a nod. She dared not glance in Nickâs direction.
Clearly, Nick had traumatized her so much that she didnât even dare to look at him.
âWhy are you so afraid of him?â Jonathan asked.
Instead of leaving, he struck up a casual conversation with Tanya.
âIâ¦â
A flash of anguish appeared on Tanyaâs face. Her entire being started trembling as though she was recalling a painful memory from the past.
âIf you donât feel like sharing, never mind!â Jonathan could tell what she was thinking. Perhaps itâs a painful past that she couldnât bring herself to reveal to everyone.
âItâs not a secret,â replied Tanya. She bit her lip and exhaled heavily. âHeâs a beast who doesnât deserve to be called a man. Back when we were dating, I discovered him cheating on me. Instead of repenting, he beat me up harshly, breaking three of my ribs. I even suffered from a serious concussion! After that, he didnât allow me to leave him. I had to report to him my whereabouts in detail every day. He also installed a surveillance camera in my house to monitor my every move. Even if I wanted to buy a drink outside, Iâd have to report it to him. If any of my actions made him upset, heâd go crazy and beat me up!
Once, he tied me up and tortured me for three days straight!â
Tanya grew extremely emotional as tears streamed down her cheeks. âIâm still suffering from chronic insomnia. Every time I fall asleep, Iâll be haunted by the past. I couldnât even take an afternoon nap for fear of him plaguing my dreams. I donât want to recall how he tortured me back then!â
Domestic violence!
Jonathan finally put two and two together after hearing Tanyaâs explanation.
No wonder Tanya was traumatized by the sight of Nick! Anyone would react the same if they were in her shoes.
âWhy didnât you call the police?â someone yelled in the crowd.
âCall the police? Will the police help me?â Tanya broke down in tears. âHis father is the deputy police chief. After I made a police report, I was detained for a week, but nothing happened to him. I was tortured and assaulted for the entire week. Thereâs no way Iâll ask for the policeâs help again! All I wanted was to stay away from him for the rest of my life. If I hadnât escaped from Jazona when he was away, he would have still tortured me until today!â
Suddenly, her legs went limp as though she had exhausted her energy from crying. In a small voice, she muttered, âAfter staying away from Jazona for a few years, I thought I wouldnât run into him that easily, but the fiendish beast appeared before me days after my return!â
âNonsense! Sheâs spouting rubbish! That isnât true!â Nick promptly defended himself. âDonât listen to her. Iâve never done that. Sheâs crazy! A madwoman! If you continue spouting nonsense and accusing me, Iâll tear your mouth apart!â
âStay away from her!â Jonathan uttered, casting Nick a warning glance. The latter instantly took a few steps back and hid behind his father like the coward he was.
He didnât even dare to point a finger in Jonathanâs direction!
âEnough, Tanya. Stop talking,â Josephine pulled the emotional Tanya into her arms to give her a comforting hug. âHeâs a b*stard who deserves to die!â
âJosephineâ¦â Tanya burst into tears in her arms.
At that sight, the crowd surrounding them couldnât help but shoot daggers at Nick.
Nick was quick to deny Tanyaâs accusations. âDonât listen to her! She mustâve gone mad to make everything up! None of her words are true!â
Nevertheless, no one believed him, for Tanya was sobbing her heart out in public.
Before he could say anything else, a loud rumble sounded from afar.
