I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 248

“Lailah wasn't in a good mood, so I went to drink with her on the beach,” Jonathan said.

Yuna was as innocent as ever, so she didn't think too much about it. Instead, she merely grumbled, “How could you not bring me along?”

Jonathan chuckled. “I wanted to, but I heard you snoring loudly when I walked past your room. I couldn't bring myself to wake you up!”

Yuna got pissed all of a sudden and pulled Jonathan's ear. “What did you say? I don't snore! You snore!”

Jonathan yelped in pain.

Hearing that, Yuna let go of him.

Jonathan then sprinted away from Yuna and said, “I even recorded you snoring on my phone! I'll play the recording now.”

As he was saying that, he acted as though he was about to whip out his phone. Seeing that, Yuna covered her ears and ran toward her room, shouting, “I don't want to listen to it! I don't want to listen to it!”

Jonathan chuckled and went back to his room. It's so easy to trick her!

Since he was feeling fantastic, he took a shower first before giving Divine Realm's Alice a call.

When the call got through, Alice smiled and uttered, “Mr. Lawson, I'm still waiting for you to bring me to dinner!”

Jonathan felt nervous instantly. I wasn't serious when I said that. Didn't she say I should ask her again when the idea pops up in my mind again? However, something happened that day, so I forgot about it entirely.

“In fact, that's why I called you!” Jonathan answered. “Initially, I wanted to bring you out for dinner today. However, something unexpected happened. Don't worry, Ms. Alice. When I return, I'll definitely bring you out for dinner.”

“All right, Mr. Lawson. I was just joking with you.” Alice chuckled.

She knew Jonathan didn't mean it, but she was still overjoyed when she heard those words.

Jonathan chuckled in response. “I meant it, though.”

“Mr. Lawson, just tell me what you need, okay?” Alice replied sternly.

“Who said I needed anything? I can't possibly call you only when I need something, right? I'm just happy to be able to talk to someone as beautiful as you. I bet there are a lot of guys out there eager to talk to you, aren't there?” As was his habit, Jonathan was a sweet-talker whenever he talked to pretty girls.

With a chuckle, Alice responded, “You're so funny, Mr. Lawson.”

“That's so sad to hear. I meant it, you know? How could you say I'm funny?”

Alice was a smart woman and wasn't someone Jonathan could fool with a few sweet words. “Mr. Lawson, I'm going to hang up if you don't get serious.”

“Hey! Don't hang up. Help me book a flight back to Yaleview, okay? The earlier, the better.”

“Sure!” Alice smiled and added, “See? I knew you needed something from me.”

With that, she hung up the phone.

Jonathan's lips curled into a smile. It's so fun to tease pretty girls whenever I'm free.

After that, he rang Catherine up.

At that moment, Catherine was in the Harrington mansion in Yaleview. Jonathan didn't tell her he was going back. Instead, he merely exchanged a few pleasantries with her before ending the call.

He then called Simon.

In no time, he got through to him.

“What's the situation like, Simon?” Jonathan asked.

“I'm still hunting down snow foxes on the mountain. However, I'm almost done now. I guess I'll be back in Lostaria in ten days' time.” After a pause, Simon asked, “What is it? Did something happen to you?”

Jonathan answered in a deep voice, “I did something without getting your approval first.”

“What is it?”

There and then, Jonathan told Simon about the raw stone, Gideon's plot, and what had happened between Oswald and him. He also did not forget to mention how Lance had shown up to help him.

Hearing that, Simon cursed, “F*ck! How dare Oswald and Gideon treat you that way?”

“I'll remember what they did to me. In the future, I'll hit them back twice as hard,” Jonathan uttered flatly.

Simon also knew they weren't as strong as Gideon and Oswald yet. Hence, he didn't say much after that.

“By the way, Master Richard has agreed to take all of us in as his disciples,” Jonathan uttered.

“That sounds good.”

“Yes.” Jonathan paused before saying, “I need to go back to Yaleview first. Once you guys are done with your tasks, we'll meet up in Lostaria.”

“Sure!” Simon replied.

With that, they ended the call.

After hanging up the phone, Jonathan called Amber.

The woman was elated when she received the call from Jonathan.

“It's about time I popped into your mind, Mr. Lawson!” Amber uttered.

Jonathan smiled and replied, “I'm in Lostaria, but I'm going back soon. Do you want any gifts? I can buy one for you.”

“What's the point if I have to pick something as a present? You have to figure it out yourself.” Amber smiled. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

“All right then!” Jonathan chuckled.

With that, they hung up the phone.

Amber and Jonathan both had feelings for each other, but they were holding themselves back.

Despite so, Jonathan couldn't bring himself to distance himself from Amber.

Amber stayed in Yaleview because of Jonathan. She didn't expect much in return. She just wanted to be friends with him because she thought her background would come in handy just in case he needed it.

If it were before, Jonathan would suppress his feelings for Amber.

However, he decided not to do so after the conversation he had with Lance. I'm not a commoner, and I don't get to marry, settle down, and have a family like commoners do. Why should I maintain the

mindset of a commoner, then? Let's just let nature take its course. If I'm happy, I'll be able to cultivate well and be on top of the world.

After the phone call with Amber, Jonathan went shopping for gifts for Catherine, Amber, and Mabel.

He was having trouble thinking about what to buy for them as gifts, though. What should I get for Mabel? I can't possibly buy her beauty products. Should I get her a doll? I don't want to get a beating, though. What would Mabel look like with a doll in her hands? I can't imagine that!

As he continued wracking his brain about what to buy for them, he could feel a headache coming. It's easier to buy Catherine a gift because I think she'll be happy with a doll. Although she's always so reserved, she's actually still an innocent little girl deep down. I also need to get Alicia a present!

Jonathan was at his wits' end. Eventually, he decided to just stroll around and buy whatever he saw.

When Jonathan was shopping, Alice called him and told him that she had already booked him a ticket. His flight was at eight that night.

Therefore, that gave him enough time to keep shopping.

Jonathan was only done shopping by five in the afternoon.

When he returned to Sunny Condo, he saw Yuna walking toward him angrily. She had been in a dilemma ever since earlier that day. Finally, she steeled herself and asked with a reddened face, “Do I really snore when I sleep?”

In a serious manner, Jonathan looked at her and said, “You do.” After a slight pause, he added, “Luckily

for you, I know how to treat it.”

“How?” Yuna asked anxiously.

“I can treat your snoring with a kiss! Do you want to give it a try, Ms. Yuna?” Jonathan chuckled.

Yuna blushed and roared, “You're lying to me, aren't you?”

With another chuckle, Jonathan suddenly whipped out something and said, “This is for you.”

It was a projector that could project sceneries such as oceans and night skies in a dark room. It even had speakers for music.

Jonathan immediately fell in love with it when he saw one of those projectors while shopping. He ended up buying ten of them in one go.

Seeing that Yuna was getting pissed off, he quickly took one out to please her.

Puzzled, Yuna asked, “What is this?”

“Bring it to your room, close your curtains, and try it out.”

Intrigued, Yuna immediately brought it back to her room.

Jonathan then went to look for Lailah.

Lailah was in her room, so Jonathan knocked on her door. Hearing that, she invited him in.

Opening the door, he saw Lailah sitting cross-legged and cultivating.

However, she stopped and turned toward Jonathan. “What's the matter?”

Jonathan was holding a projector in his hands, and he initially wanted to give one to Lailah. Yet, he suddenly felt awkward. Isn't it a tad childish to give her this? I can't come in here and tell her nothing's the matter, though. If I say that, she's going to think I'm crazy.

“Um... I'm going back to Yaleview at eight tonight,” Jonathan said.

“Have a safe flight.” Lailah's response was short and succinct.

Jonathan then whipped out the light projector and said, “Here. This is for you. It's quite fun to play with.” With that, he left it on a table nearby.

“Thanks!” Lailah replied.

Jonathan didn't know what else to say but, “Carry on with whatever you were doing.” With that, he left the room and closed the door behind him. Why is it so awkward to talk to Lailah?

With that in his mind, Jonathan went back to his room and packed up the gifts before going over to Richard to say goodbye.

Richard wasn't bothered by his plans and merely told Jonathan to do whatever he needed to do. He also told Jonathan to look for him and Beatrix if the younger man ever needed help.

After saying goodbye to Richard, Jonathan went to see Alice with one of the light projectors.

Upon receiving the gift, Alice was so happy that she ended up giving Jonathan a kiss.

Apparently, girls from Anglandur were all rather passionate and open-minded that way.

After that, Jonathan packed up, took his flight ticket, and had Yuna send him to the airport.

As they were leaving Sunny Condo, Jonathan turned back and glanced at it once more. When is Lailah going to Eonetara Gate? How is she going to get there? When will I see her again? Will we not see each other for a long time? Well, let's just see what fate has in store for us.

Jonathan was slightly saddened because Lailah didn't come out to send him off.

Little did he know, Lailah was watching him leave behind the curtain in her room.

Although Lailah thought it was a blessing to have met Jonathan, she didn't want to get too involved with him. Let's just leave things as they are. This is for our own good.

At eight that night, the flight from Lostaria to Yaleview took off, and Jonathan was on his way back.
