I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 35

Chapter 35 Brimming With Joy

Jonathan was overjoyed. Everything had fallen into place for him. However, in the next second, he began worrying about whether or not Jessica’s grandfather would be able to settle the matter.

“What’s the name of your granddad?” Jonathan asked.

“Morgan Hayes,” Jessica replied.

“Okay, I got it.” After taking a deep breath, Jonathan continued, “Wait here. I’ll deal with some things first.” With that said, he left the CEO’s office.

Naturally, Jonathan did not know who Morgan was, for he had just come back from abroad. He knew nothing about the martial arts world in the country.

After exiting the office, Jonathan went to the security guards’ break room. The first thing he did was to call Polly and asked about Morgan. Polly beamed after hearing about Jessica and Morgan’s relationship, and how Morgan would go to Jipsdale to resolve the matter.

As a matter of fact, she began laughing boisterously. “Jonathan, you really have great luck, don’t you? Fairlake is the sacred land of the martial arts. In Fairlake, Morgan Hayes is known as Martial King of Fairlake. He’s a well-respected man, and since he’s speaking on your behalf, I’m sure Leonardo won’t make it hard for you.”

At that, Jonathan rubbed his nose awkwardly. He did not like the way he had to rely on others. Nevertheless, he was glad that the grave trouble was resolved. After letting out a long sigh, he mumbled under his breath, “Well, at least that’s done.”

Ending the call, Jonathan then lay down on the recliner. The comfortable recliner and the gentle breeze from the fan made him feel cozy and sleepy.

That day passed without a hitch.

Feeling relaxed, Jonathan then went shopping. Once in a while, he would look for Jossie to tease her or go annoy Jessica. The days that went by were peaceful and fun.

One evening, when it was almost time for work to be over, Jonathan was lying on the recliner. The security guards by his side were fanning him and listening to his boastful tales.

Right then, Jossie appeared.

The seductive woman was wearing a black mini-skirt, and her fair legs were plump and alluring. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Her upper body was even more attractive. The woman’s figure was downright captivating. The moment she appeared, the security guards tensed up. Although Jossie was a sensuous woman, she was also a woman who had an imposing aura. Any ordinary person would feel pressured to be in the same room as her.

Jonathan was the only one unaffected by her presence even back when he was just a trivial security guard. That was why Jossie started to feel exceptionally annoyed with Jonathan.

After she entered the room, she said to the security guards, “Please go out for a while. I have some things to talk to Jonathan about.”

Almost immediately, the security guards fled the room. Jossie then closed the door.

As the lights in the break room were not turned on, the moment the door closed, the place turned dim.

Right away, the atmosphere in the room seemed racy.

Jonathan tensed up as his heart began beating quicker and quicker. Darn, Jossie isn’t going to let me have her, right? It’s not like I mind though. Still, isn’t this too thrilling!

The moment Jossie got closer to him, Jonathan could smell the tempting fragrance coming from her.

Instantly, Jonathan sat upright, thinking, I really have no control over myself, do I? As it turned out, Jonathan’s body was reacting to her, and that was why he had to sit upright to conceal his embarrassment. “Jossie, is there anything I can help you with? Is there something you need help with? Why don’t you tell me about it, and I’ll work on it right away.”

At that point, Jonathan did not dare to spout out anything ridiculous.

A laugh escaped Jossie. She walked over to his side and suddenly sat on his lap.

What the heck?

Jonathan could barely keep his cool. He could feel the softness and bouncy feeling of Jossie’s bottom. “Jossie…” Jonathan’s throat turned dry.

Jossie chuckled. All of a sudden, she grabbed Jonathan’s neck and said “Brat, I thought you were a gutsy one. Where’s your courage now?”

Jonathan chuckled awkwardly. He did not quite understand what Jossie meant.

Jossie continued, “Are you free tonight? Why don’t you come to my house for a meal?”

Jonathan was delighted. However, he quickly said, “Um, I’m not free.”

Pah! I won’t go after someone so close to me. Moreover, even if I’m a pervert, I shouldn’t get anything by taking shortcuts.

Jossie froze. She never thought that Jonathan would reject her. Instantly, the light in her eyes dimmed and she asked, “Why?”

Unable to stand crossing a beautiful woman, Jonathan instantly put on a bitter look and said, “I want to come to your place for a meal too, but Ms. Smith and Ms. Theron have asked me to keep them company at night.”

Promptly, the dark look on Jossie’s face lightened up a little. She then said, “Why don’t you come to my place for supper instead?”

Jonathan was taken aback by that. She really wants it so badly, huh?

Hence, he said, “Oh, okay.”

There was no way Jonathan was going. He knew what kind of person he was. If he really went to her place, he would certainly end up getting in bed with her. Nevertheless, he could only accept her invitation for now before coming up with an excuse not to go later at night.

When Jossie realized Jonathan had said yes, she smiled. “That’ll be that, then.” After giving a peck on Jonathan’s cheek, she left. Of course, her fragrance wafted across his nose when she left.

Jonathan’s first response was to wipe away the lipstick mark on his cheek. Since he was a playboy, there was no way he would leave it there for others to see.

Once Jossie was gone, the few busybody security guards quickly entered the room and bombarded Jonathan with questions.

Jonathan would never give them any gossip-worthy news, so he solemnly said, “Ms. Perez said that there might be some ruckus in our building recently. She also said that someone in our team might have been bribed by an outsider, so she told me to be extra careful.”

Hearing that, the security guards turned pale and quickly declared their loyalty.

With the solemn expression still on his face, Jonathan said, “Of course, I believe in you guys. Nevertheless, don’t tell anyone about this.”

They instantly agreed to it.

That made Jonathan laugh inwardly.

Jossie looked for Jonathan not because she had fallen for him or because she wanted to marry him. Instead, it was because Jossie was also a flirtatious woman. Most of the time, she would appease her clients with her beauty. When she realized Jonathan was rather masculine, she became interested to have a one-night stand with him.

If it were in the past, Jonathan would be absolutely enamored with a beauty like Jossie. Unfortunately, Jonathan now knew Jennifer. In other words, he had turned over a new leaf.

After work, Jonathan called Jennifer. “Jennifer, let me treat you to a meal.”

“What are you trying to do?” Jennifer questioned, a little angry.

Jonathan froze for a second before a bitter laugh escaped him. “Jennifer, can’t you give me some time? My feelings for you are genuine. It’s just that I can’t change my mindset so quickly.”

Jennifer tensed up at his words. She bit her lip lightly as delight danced across her heart. She did like Jonathan after all. Therefore, she softened her tone and said, “The food outside isn’t as hygienic. Buy some groceries and cook at home instead.”

Jonathan promptly said, “All right!”

He had to admit that he was filled with nothing but conflicted feelings for Jennifer. He did not want to hurt her, but he could not stop thinking about her. Yet, at the same time, he did not want to marry and settle down.

Nevertheless, he was already forcing himself to adapt to the new situation. Maybe I’ll be used to Jennifer’s gentleness. Once I’m used to it, maybe I won’t be scared of being constrained by marriage.

After Jonathan met up with Jennifer, the two went to the supermarket to shop for groceries. Once they were done with that, they went home.

While cooking, Jonathan quietly stayed by the side and helped her wash the vegetables.

The scene in the brightly lit kitchen was a sweet one.

Right then, Jennifer said, “Jonathan, why don’t you move to my place? There are lots of rooms here.”

Jonathan stiffened, but he was soon grinning inwardly. “Huh?”

“Do you not want to? Just pretend that you’ve heard nothing then,” Jennifer quickly said, her cheeks turning red.

“Of course I want to!” Jonathan blurted out.

There was a reason Jennifer asked Jonathan to move in. She understood his worries and thoughts, so she wanted to do this to let Jonathan know that staying together was not that terrifying.

Jennifer wanted to give Jonathan more time to change his ways.

On the other hand, while Jonathan was filled with nothing but love for Jennifer, he was feeling unsure as well. He did not know if he would be able to stay the same after getting her body. He did not have confidence in himself, and that was why he never dared to make a move on Jennifer.

After the meal, Jonathan and Jennifer went to the rental house to pack up the things. Jonathan did not have much, so they soon moved everything over. After that, Jennifer even bought a cartful of daily necessities for Jonathan in the supermarket.

That night, they were both busy with the moving until it was eleven at night. Once they were done with everything, they said their goodnights. Jonathan returned to his room while Jennifer went to take a shower.

When the sounds of running water traveled into his ears, Jonathan could not stop his heart from racing. He could imagine the wonderful scene happening inside.

Just then, Jonathan’s phone suddenly rang. Jumping in fright, Jonathan then picked up the call.

The next moment, he realized it was from Jossie.

When the call went through, Jossie’s coquettish voice traveled into his ears. “Jonathan, are you free now?”

“No!” He then quickly ended the call as if it was giving him electric shocks. How can I make a mistake like this now? Since he could not explain everything to Jossie on the phone, he decided to hang up on her instead. He was a lousy man, anyway.

The next day, Jonathan and Jennifer went to work together. Jonathan was the one driving. When they were about to reach the office, Jennifer went down from the car first.

As the two of them had not officially started their relationship yet, neither wanted others to find out about their relationship. Still, the two were in a good mood after what happened the day before.

Jonathan reached the office half an hour later. Almost instantly, he encountered Jossie. Jossie was resentful, but Jonathan only chuckled in silence. Thus, Jossie ignored him and strode off.

Jonathan was not disappointed by her reaction. Although Jossie was alluring, Jonathan knew that she was a woman in contact with many men. Hence, he did not really want to be too close to her. After all, Rose Couture was not a bar; they could not completely cut ties after a one-night stand.

In the afternoon, something happened at the peaceful Rose Couture’s office.

Two police cars rushed toward Rose Couture’s office and stopped right in front of the building.

Jonathan had been playing card games with the others in the security guards’ break room when the police cars came. The moment he heard the sirens, his heart lurched. Holy sh*t, they’re not here for me, right?

Nevertheless, regardless of what actually happened, Jonathan was not planning to retreat. He threw the cards aside and said, “Let’s go out and take a look at what’s going on.”

As the other security guards saw Jonathan as their leader, they went out of the break room with him.
