    Chapter 83 Jonathan Is More Fearsome


    Jonathan, more fearsome than any demon, always prioritized the family’s honor and interests, even if it


    meant sacrificing a few individuals.

    Maintaining connections with the Sanders Family meant the engagement couldn’t be called


    off.


    Upon hearing this, Zacharias‘ handsome face darkened. Joseph considered things more


    comprehensively and took the overall situation into ount.


    Joseph reassured him, “Alright, don’t fret. Head to the office, and I’ll check on youter. Why have you


    been coughing so severelytely?”


    He recalled that although Zacharias had coughed before, it hadn’t been this severe.


    Joseph furrowed his brow. “How are the servants attending to you? If it’s not satisfactory, I’ll make a


    change and find someone more attentive.”


    Zacharias had always been frail, with a weak heart and a history of various illnesses since childhood.


    There were even times when he was on the verge of death, and it caused his parents countless


    sleepless nights.


    In recent years, his health had somewhat improved thanks to careful adjustments.


    Zacharias waved his hand dismissively. “It’s not because of the servants. Before, Ang took charge of


    my diet. She cooked medicinal meals every day. But after Ang left, the medicinal meals stopped.


    When I asked the kitchen staff, I found out Ang personally made them…”


    He paused, feeling a twinge of unease.


    Whenever Ang brought him those medicinal meals, he’d get annoyed. She not only insisted he eat


    them daily but also pestered him with reminders. Her demeanor was almost like an olddy.


    Often, it was only with Fanny’s reassurance that he managed to finish his meal.


    So, he warned Ang to stay out of his room, and Fanny began delivering the nightly medicinal meals


    instead.


    Gradually, he began to credit Fanny for the meals and forgot they were made by Ang.


    For a moment, a mix of emotions flickered in Zacharias‘ dark eyes.

    On the first floor of the hospital, near the elevator, was Christopher holding Fanny’s hand. They


    stepped out of the elevator, only to be surprised by the sight of a man in a wheelchair waiting at the


    entrance.


    Jonathan’s cool gaze met Christopher’s, then shifted to Fanny beside him.


    In Jonathan’s presence, Christopher always felt a palpable tension, and his breaths became.


    harder.


    He immediately straightened his back, respectfully nodded, and took the initiative to greet,


    “Mr. Lawson.”


    Then he squeezed Fanny’s hand and nervously said, “This is Fanny. Fanny, meet Mr. Lawson.”


    For the first time, Christopher introduced Fanny as his fiancée to the Sanders Family.


    Fanny instinctivelyposed herself and offered a graceful smile as she greeted, “Mr. Lawson.”


    She couldn’t help but wonder why Christopher showed such deference to Jonathan, even more than to


    his father, Michael.


    Although Jonathan is in power now, he is crippled and sick. He’s dying, right? The future of the


    Sanders and Lawson Families rests with Christopher! Fanny mused.


    Nevertheless, gratitude was owed. Jonathan had tirelessly assisted Christopher in managing the


    company.


    Jonathan nced away, his demeanor indifferent. “Once Miss Fanny bes part of the Sander


    family, then you can call me ‘Mr. Lawson. Your father addresses me as Mr. Lawson, and you want to


    call me Lawson? Is that appropriate?”


    His voice, deep and resonant, carried a hint of disdain


    Fanny was taken aback, and her face paled. She was already engaged to Christopher, yet. Jonathan


    was showing such disrespect.


    Fanny nervously bit her lip, unsure how to address him. If her father called him Mr. Lawson, what


    should she call him? Jonathan was intentionally causing trouble for her.


    Meanwhile, Jonathan appeared oblivious as his ck coat entuated his cold and aloof demeanor.

    “Mr. Lawson, Fanny is just shy. If you have any grievances, take them up with me. It was my decision


    to marry her, Christopher quickly interjected upon seeing, Fanny being harassed. “And I’ve already


    apologized to Ang


    Jonathan spoke again, “Alright, go home and kneel in front of the ancestral hall for three hours. Inform


    your Grandfather about what I said”


    Christopher’s expression tightened, and his jaw clenched as he reluctantly agreed,


    Fanny was stunned, and her eyes widened in disbelief. She retorted icily, “Who do you think you are,


    Jonathan, from another father? What gives you the right to punish Christopher? What did he do


    wrong?”


    Jonathan’s gaze remained unwavering, “Make it four hours”


    “Are you out of your mind?”


    “Fanny, enough!” Christopher’s voice was sharp as he scolded her sternly. “You’re not allowed to speak


    to him like that.”


    Fanny’s face turned pale again, and tears welled up in her eyes.


    Why was Christopher being so harsh on her? She was only trying to help him!


    Seeing her distressed state, Christopher softened a bit. He turned away from her and addressed


    Jonathan, “Mr. Lawson, Fanny is young and inexperienced. Please don’t me her.”Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    Jonathan’s voice was cold as he responded, “When have you seen me lose my temper over trivial


    matters? When I’m discussing matters with Christopher, it’s not your ce, as an outsider, to interfere


    in the Sanders Family’s affairs.”


    Fanny clenched her fists. The earlier joy had evaporated from her face.


    Remembering past encounters, Christopher dared not speak and only offered a sympathetic nce to


    Fanny.


    Then, a single sentence from Jonathan drained all color from Fanny’s face, recing it with fear.


    “By the way, Linda has been arrested by the police. As her close friend, shouldn’t you visit her? She’s


    mentioned you several times,” Jonathan said casually while smiling. “Since you’re marrying into the


    Sanders Fatnily, remember to be cautious at your age. Avoid getting mixed up with the wrong people,


    or you’ll face consequences.”

    After saying that, Simon wheeled Jonathan into the elevator, and they disappeared.

    Meanwhile, Fanny stood frozen, cold sweat trickling down her spine, and her eyes fixed on the closed


    elevator doors.


    Christopher frowned. He was puzzled as he asked her, “What did Jonathan mean? Do you know


    Linda?”


    Fanny forced a smile, suppressed her fear, and innocently shook her head.


    “I’m not certain. I spoke with Linda before Ang’s situation arose. We exchanged a few words as


    ssmates,” she exined, looking somewhat upset. “Perhaps Linda, in an attempt to alleviate her


    guilt, began using people indiscriminately? Could Jonathan have misunderstood due to her


    confrontational attitude?”


    Christopher intervened, “Linda won’t be getting out, and Jonathan is going to deal with someone. No


    one can save them. Don’t contact Linda anymore.”


    A momentter, Fanny hesitantly asked, “Why are you so afraid of Jonathan? He bullies. like that, and


    yet you endure it.”

    Christopher’s gaze darkened slightly at the mention of Jonathan. “Our family’s situation isplicated.


    I’ll exin more in the future.”


    “But you scared me earlier. I was so frightened,” Fanny confessed, looking sad.


    Christopher felt guilty and gently embraced Fanny..


    He apologized and exined softly, “I wasn’t yelling at you earlier. I was trying to protect you. In the


    Sanders Family, you can upset me and my dad, but don’t provoke Jonathan. He… is not to be


    underestimated.”


    Christopher’s eyes hinted at a secret, suggesting Jonathan’s true nature was more terrifying than


    anyone could imagine.
