I Am Unstoppable Chapter 19

Chapter 19 The Queen
“What now?” Jonathan chuckled and continued, “Didn’t I tell you that this car is expensive? What’s more, I advised you to handle it properly, but you didn’t listen to me. Look! The car owner is coming to look for you now.”
“You tricked me!” Borat said angrily.
Jonathan sneered, “Ha! I never told you this car was mine.”
Despite being amused, Jessica and Yasmin suppressed their laughter.
At that moment, Polly came to the car with two bodyguards in tow. Fuming with anger, she swept a cursory glance over the car and then fixed her gaze on Borat. “What’s all this?”
Before Borat could say anything, Jonathan responded in a hurry, “This is what happened, pretty lady. These men smashed your car. I told them that your Jaguar is very expensive, and they wouldn’t be able to pay you back if it was damaged. However, they didn’t listen to my words and insisted on smashing your car.”
“Oh? Is that so?” Polly turned to look at Borat. She was not an idiot but an intelligent woman.
Borat took a deep breath and replied, “Ms. McDaniels, he tricked us into doing this. We thought this was his car.”
Jonathan snorted in disdain. Then, he turned to Polly and said, “No, I didn’t trick them. I happened to pass by your car when I came out, and these guys stopped me. Seeing that they wanted to smash your car, I reminded them not to do it because it’s an expensive vehicle. Alas, they didn’t listen to me, and they became even more insistent once I started stopping them from doing what they wanted.”
Polly looked at Jonathan indifferently before saying to Borat, “You guys were the one who smashed up my car, weren’t you?”
Borat wanted to refute, but he could not find the words to do so. Eventually, he nodded in response.
Seeing this, Polly said, “Bravo! No one in Horington has ever dared to lay a finger on my car. You’re the first one. Looks like you’ve really got some guts, huh?”
Borat almost wanted to kneel and beg for mercy, but all he could do was plead with a forlorn expression, “T-This was all a misunderstanding!” Ignoring him, Polly said, “You have one day to fix this. Hand me two million at my coffee house tomorrow at this time. Else, there will be consequences to pay!”
After uttering those words, Polly took her bodyguards and left.
Seeing this, Jonathan darted forward and called out to Polly with a smile, “Hey, pretty lady!”
Polly looked at Jonathan coldly. “Don’t think I don’t know what’s on your mind.”
Chuckling, Jonathan went on, “Don’t be upset, pretty lady. You don’t have a car now, do you? Why don’t you take our car, then? It’s not much, but at least it’s something.” As he spoke, he led the way, walking toward the BMW and opening the car door for Polly.
“This way, pretty lady,” Jonathan called out earnestly like a slave begging his master.
Polly pondered for a moment but eventually got into the car, and Jonathan handed his car keys to the two bodyguards.
Soon, the car started up and took off.
Turning around, Jonathan chuckled at Jessica and Yasmin. “Let’s go.”
“No way!” Infuriated, Borat and his lackeys circled Jonathan and his friends.
Jonathan glanced at Borat with a smile and said, “I think you should be digging for the money you need to pay her now.”
“Compensate me! If not, I’ll finish you off today!” Borat snarled.
Jonathan replied, “Are you crazy? Why should I do this for you? I didn’t ask you to smash her car.”
“Go to hell!” Borat was livid upon hearing Jonathan’s words. He grabbed a steel rod and charged toward Jonathan, wanting to strike at the latter’s head.
A gust of wind ensued as he swung the steel rod in Jonathan’s direction.
Jessica and Yasmin were utterly shocked and horrified at the sight of that.
However, in the blink of an eye, Jonathan grabbed hold of the steel rod and crushed it into a ball the way one would scrunch up a piece of paper.
Letting out a scoff, he said, “Get out of my face before I get mad at you!”
Everyone froze in thunderstruck silence.
Borat and the hooligans were rather stunned after seeing what Jonathan just did, and both Jessica and Yasmin could not believe their eyes either.
Terrified, Borat and his lackeys glanced at Jonathan and scampered away.
After that, Jonathan yawned languidly. “Ah! How boring it is! Come on, let’s leave now.”
Jessica and Yasmin had finally witnessed for themselves Jonathan’s capabilities. The three of them then hailed a taxi. In the car, Jessica decided not to mess with Jonathan anymore but couldn’t help
asking, “Hey, Jonathan! How did you get so strong?”
Jonathan grinned and said, “Well, you haven’t even seen me in bed yet.” Blushing in embarrassment, Jessica pulled Jonathan’s ear and said, “Hey! Why can’t you just talk properly with me?”
Due to the pain, Jonathan had no choice but to beg for forgiveness. Seated in the passenger seat, he somehow looked a comical sight.
The taxi driver looked at them puzzledly and suppressed his laughter.
“All right! Stop fooling around, you two!” Yasmin said solemnly.
Only then did Jessica let go of Jonathan.
Yasmin then thought for a moment before asking, “Jonathan, were those hooligans related to Cyclops and Jane?”
Wow! What a smart woman.
Jonathan nodded and answered, “Yes, you’re right!”
Realization soon dawned on Jessica as well. However, she came across a puzzling thought. “Isn’t it weird that Cyclops sent those hooligans to go against you? After all, he has confronted you before, so he must know your capability.”
Jonathan gave her a silly grin upon hearing her words. “It seems you’re not the boobs-for-brains type. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be this intelligent. Looks like your boobs must mostly just be padding, eh?”
Jessica instantly lost her temper as she snapped, “Are you trying to pick a fight with me?”
Jonathan laughed and responded, “It’s true that those few punks earlier were not very powerful. However, I guess I’d be in troubled waters if I fought with them and beat them up. Cyclops must have
colluded with the police. They were simply waiting to arrest me for assault and would accuse me of the crime once I’m in custody. If I resist, I’d become a wanted criminal. If not, then I’d have to go to prison. These are the dirty tactics they’re using now!”
His words sent chills down Jessica and Yasmin’s spines. What an evil plan!
The next instant, Jessica said, “But you could still avoid injuring them, couldn’t you?”
“Cyclops could find a way to harm me as long as he wants to,” Jonathan responded. After a pause, he continued, “Well, they have no time to bother with me now since they’ve smashed Polly’s car.”
Recalling what happened earlier, Jessica and Yasmin could not help but feel amused. At the same time, they started worrying as well. Jessica said, “I think Cyclops and Jane would not easily give up now that they’re working together. I reckon this isn’t the end.”
“Don’t worry. I’m here for you even if the sky comes crashing down!” Jonathan promised.
Jessica and Yasmin’s hearts warmed, and they felt grateful upon hearing this.
Although Jonathan often seemed frivolous, he was still reliable whenever they were in need.
Polly was sitting in the back seat of the BMW that belonged to Yasmin.
The bodyguard who drove the car was Dominick Xanthos. The one who sat in the passenger seat was his elder brother, Donovan Xanthos.
These two brothers used to be boxers in Southeast Aploth. They had gotten themselves into huge trouble after they caused the death of a famous martial arts master’s apprentice in an underground boxing match.
At that time, Polly protected them and resolved the conflict well.
Since then, Dominick and Donovan swore to be loyal to Polly and treated her with the utmost admiration and respect. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
At this moment, Donovan could not help but ask, “Ms. McDaniels, it’s obvious that it was that kid who created this trouble today. How dare he mess with you! Why did you allow us to teach him a lesson?”
Polly smiled and answered, “I’m afraid you wouldn’t be able to do that.”
“Huh?” Dominick and Donovan were surprised by her words. Dominick then asked, “Was he a capable fighter? I couldn’t tell.”
Polly responded, “Not only you, but even I failed to see through him. He either doesn’t know anything about combat arts or is an expert fighter.”
Donovan replied in contempt, “Ha! It’s unlikely that there were so many combat arts experts around. I reckon he knows nothing!”
Hearing his words, Polly said, “You’re wrong, Don. If he was an ordinary man who doesn’t know combat arts, he would not have risked offending me. Moreover, I saw the burning desire in his eyes when he was looking at me. At my cultivation stage, not many men would dare to stare at me like that. He is different, and he treats me like any other woman. In other words, it shows that his cultivation stage shouldn’t be lower than mine and might even be higher.”
Dominick and Donovan inhaled sharply upon hearing Polly’s explanation. Then, Donovan asked, “Ms. McDaniels, your cultivation has reached the peak of Neutralizing Force. One more step and you’d be at the Immortal Level. If that chap is at a higher stage than yours, does that mean he’s already reached the Immortal Level, then?”
Polly said, “Maybe not, but well, these are just my guesses. He’s an interesting man, and we should get to know him more.”
“All right, Ms. McDaniels,” Dominick and Donovan responded reverently.
After arriving at Youthful Apparel, Yasmin gave Jonathan a new car, which was an Audi A6.
“Don’t you want to get the BMW back?” Jessica could not help but ask.
Yasmin thought before answering, “Polly is a smart woman. Besides, She got into this mess only because of Jonathan. I think I’ll just let it go. She could keep that car as compensation.”
“Huh? No way!” Jonathan was unwilling to compromise. “Why do we need to do this? It’s not our fault that her car got damaged. I’ll get the car back.”
Without another word, he turned and left so quickly that neither Jessica nor Yasmin could stop him.
However, Jonathan doubled back at once. “Where does that pretty lady live? How can I look for her?”
Hearing this, Jessica and Yasmin could not help but sigh. My goodness, this guy sure is funny!
After obtaining Polly’s address, Jonathan sped off and went to look for her.
Meanwhile, Cyclops received a call from Borat saying that the latter had accidentally smashed Polly’s car. Moreover, Cyclops got to know that Polly was asking for a two million compensation. Cyclops had an urge to finish off Borat at that moment upon hearing this. Grr! These imbeciles!
However, he dared not offend Polly.
After all, Polly was not an ordinary woman but was influential and powerful in Horington. Even Dragon King, a prominent figure in the underground, had to be respectful toward Polly.
In no way was Cyclops bold enough to provoke a woman like her.
Although he could pay her two million, it was not a small amount to him.
No matter how he looked at it, he could only blame his own bad luck for it and had to personally visit Polly to ask for her forgiveness.
Meanwhile, Jonathan had reached Polly’s coffee house in no time. It had a vintage architectural style. Walking into the place, he felt as if he was transported back to ancient times.
He had also noticed the BMW parked outside the coffee house. However, it was more appropriate for him to go and greet Polly first.
Upon entering the coffee house, he saw the waitresses clad in beautiful gowns.
They were elegant, and the shape of their stunning figures electrified Jonathan. Ah! I wish I could touch them!
Then, he informed the waitresses that he wanted to see Polly. A waitress then got him seated and served him coffee before excusing herself to inform Polly about his request.
Once she was gone, Jonathan crossed his legs, took a bag of snacks out from his pocket, and savored them.
Seeing this, the waitresses were rendered speechless. What an odd person!
Soon, Polly came into the hall with the Xanthos brothers.
She was clad in sportswear, and her hair was tied in a ponytail. Despite dressing so casually, she still appeared elegant and classy.
Jonathan stood up and called out to Polly with a smile, “Hey, pretty lady!”
Polly glanced at Jonathan indifferently and opened her mouth to speak. However, before she could say anything, she was at an utter loss for words.
At this moment, Jonathan was earnestly grabbing a handful of snacks and offering them to Polly. “Here are some snacks for you, pretty lady.”
Momentarily stunned, Polly chuckled and took some of the snacks after recovering from her shock. “Have a seat, please.”
They sat down.
Polly started eating the snacks that Jonathan gave her. Her elegant manner in savoring the snacks accentuated her gracefulness.
Crack! A crisp sound rang through the air as she munched on the snacks daintily.
Jonathan could not help but compliment, “Wow, you’re attractive even when you’re eating snacks! Your future husband must be the luckiest man on earth!”
Placing the unfinished snacks on the table, Polly took a sip of coffee before saying solemnly, “All right. Now, tell me what you want from me?”
Jonathan froze for a moment but smiled immediately after. “Um, I’m here to take back my car. Didn’t we lend you our BMW earlier today? Instead of asking you to return it yourself, I’m doing you a favor in driving it back.”
Polly said casually, “It’s partly your fault for damaging my car. What makes you think I’d allow you to take that BMW away?”
Jonathan giggled and answered, “How could you say something like that, pretty lady? I was protecting your car earlier, except that I’d failed. Isn’t it unfair for you to say it’s my fault?”
Polly responded calmly, “Okay. Stop feigning innocence. We both know what happened. No matter what, it’s impossible for me to return that car to you.”
Feeling frustrated, Jonathan blurted out, “Hey, you’re being unreasonable!”
Polly smiled. “You can take it as it is. What would you do about it, then?”
Jonathan touched his nose and sighed before saying, “You’re asking for this, pretty lady. If you don’t return the car to me, I’ll follow you everywhere you go, even if you were using the bathroom or sleeping.”
Polly gaped in disbelief upon hearing Jonathan’s words. I have a feeling that he would do exactly what he said.
“Aren’t you afraid of me?” Polly glanced at him coldly.
“What for?” Jonathan said confusedly, “You’re a beautiful woman. Why do I need to be afraid of you? Oh! Don’t tell me you’re a monster?”
Polly thought for a moment before making a decision. “Do whatever suits you, but I’d never let you drive that car away from this place.” After finishing her sentence, she turned around and left.
Jonathan followed her at once.
Seeing this, the brothers of the Xanthos family stared daggers at Jonathan and blocked him.
Ignoring them, Jonathan pushed them away and rushed toward Polly.
Dominick and Donovan immediately paled. They had not seen it when Jonathan rushed toward them earlier, and now they merely felt as if Jonathan was escaping from their grasp.
After regaining their poise, they turned around, wanting to charge at Jonathan.
Noticing this, Polly instructed coldly, “All right. You two stop now. You’re not a match for him.”
Dominick and Donovan could only listen to her order and stay put.
After that, Polly headed toward the restroom.
Stepping into the restroom, she asked Jonathan who stood outside the door, “Do you want to come in with me?”
Jonathan blushed shyly upon hearing her question. I may be unreasonable at times, but I’m not a pervert! Then, he turned around with his back facing her and responded, “I’ll wait for you outside.”
Polly closed the door.
Standing at the door, Jonathan allowed the images of Polly using the bathroom to run wild in his mind. Mmm, what an arousing sight!
However, Jonathan became disappointed as the sound of water flushing rang sounded.
After the loud flushing noise stopped, Polly was done as well.
Jonathan was slightly upset that he hadn’t heard a thing when she was in there besides the flushing.
Then, Polly went to her coffee house and had a meal. Jonathan followed closely.
Seeing this, Polly started to admire Jonathan as his temperament was totally different from the experts she had encountered before. They were all arrogant people who cared about their statuses immensely. It was the first time Polly was seeing one like Jonathan, who could not care less about how people thought of him.
As Polly ate, Jonathan followed her actions and ate as well. Besides, he would also snatch the meat from Polly’s plate, saying that it was not good for her if she wanted to keep a slim figure.
Throughout that meal, Polly found herself both amused and exasperated at the same time. She also guessed that Jonathan was indeed a combat arts expert, as he grabbed her meat with unbelievably swift and smooth motions. Even if she tried, she could not stop him.
After the meal, Jonathan exclaimed shamelessly, “You live such a good life, pretty lady. By following you, I’ll have free meals, and I can also indulge myself in watching an enchantress like you. Well, I think you’d better keep the car from me forever, as I’d be sorry to say goodbye to such a luxurious life.”
Polly almost burst a blood vessel upon hearing his words, but there was nothing she could do.
Alas, he always has the upper hand! How could such shameless people exist?
At five in the afternoon, Polly finally admitted defeat and returned the BMW car keys to Jonathan. “Fine, you win!”
Jonathan chuckled and left hurriedly with the keys.
Though she was unwilling to compromise, she knew Jonathan would not give up if he did not achieve his goal, and she did not have that much time to waste. Therefore, she decided to give in.
However, she was even more curious about Jonathan now than before. This man is unfathomable yet thick-skinned. However, he has his principles, and he’s obviously not an evil man.
Polly believed that Jonathan was an interesting man.
Jonathan could not care less about what Polly had in mind. He started the car engine and headed straight for Rose Couture.
Jessica and Yasmin had been waiting for Jonathan at Emerald Building the whole time.
They could only rely on him for now, as they did not know what Cyclops would do to seek revenge on them.
When Jonathan reached, they got into the car, and Jonathan drove off again.
Jessica could not help but exclaim, “Wow! Polly really returned the car to us!”
Jonathan replied, “Of course! She couldn’t stop thanking me from the moment I reached her coffee house.”
“What did she thank you for? Telling you that she appreciated your effort in smashing her car?” Jessica said in an annoyed tone.
“Of course not. She thanked me for protecting her car and even asked me to stay for dinner first before leaving. It was really hard to reject her generosity,” Jonathan responded shamelessly.
“You never speak the truth!” Jessica was speechless at that.
Fortunately, Yasmin and Jessica were now familiar with his temperament. Everything was fine as long as he got the car back.
After sending Jessica and Yasmin back to Maple Mansion, Jonathan drove home. The night was still young, and everyone had only just returned from work. A pang of boredom soon washed over him.
How he wished he could spend the night with Jennifer. For instance, they could drink wine and do something they didn’t get to do the previous day.
Therefore, Jonathan dialed Jonathan’s number without hesitation.
“Jen, let me treat you to a meal tonight,” Jonathan said.
“I’m busy.” Jennifer rejected his offer coldly and hung up her phone immediately.
Jonathan was startled. Huh? How did she change so fast? I could never keep up with her changing emotions! Is she blaming me? Why? Is it because I didn’t fulfill her desires last night?
Amused by his thoughts, he knew that was impossible.
He understood that Jennifer wanted nothing to do with him. At that moment, he did not think much but drove to a fast-food restaurant.
A BMW at a fast-food restaurant was indeed an eye-catching sight, but Jonathan was not concerned with what people thought of him.
After finishing a cheap meal, he went straight home.
He usually stayed at home when he had nothing to do. In fact, he could spend days without leaving the house and would meditate quietly at home for a few days on end.
However, he would also cause trouble as long as he chose to.
At around nine at night, while Jonathan was still meditating, he opened his eyes suddenly.
A ray of light flashed before his eyes.
With that, Jonathan darted out of his house.
He was not driving a vehicle, but his speed was faster than one.
Cyclops was unhappy tonight because he could not teach Jonathan a lesson. To exacerbate the situation, he had to pay Polly two million.
How much is two million? That amount of money would allow an average person to live a pretty comfortable life.
Cyclops’ heart wrenched with pain as he thought of that.
At this moment, he was in his house. It was a big, spacious place with two living rooms and three bedrooms. He had invited a number of young models to his place and opened quite a few bottles of red wine.
On this night, Cyclops wanted to hold a party to vent his frustration.
He was a rather prominent figure in Horington, one who gained a lot of respect throughout the city. Therefore, it was easy for him to call upon those young models.
The living room was brightly lit.
Three models were dancing in front of Cyclops, trying to attract his attention and please him.
They knew Cyclops had great connections with the big shots in Horington. Those models’ career paths would be smoother if they managed to satisfy him.
Cyclops was busy caressing the models’ bodies as well.
He believed he was the luckiest man on earth at that moment.
Just as Cyclops thought he could forget the unfortunate event that happened earlier on, he heard a sigh outside the door.
The music in the living room had reached a deafening crescendo.
The models could not hear anything, but Cyclops heard the sigh clearly enough.
Cold sweat trickled down his spine as he asked, “Who’s there?”
The models were confused to see his reaction.
The next instant, the main door was pushed open.
Jonathan stood there at the door and scanned the room with a half-smile. He could not help but feel jealous of Cyclops.
If only I were as shameless as him, I would also be enjoying my night with these beautiful ladies!
However, Jonathan would not do something so brazen and ridiculous.
Cyclops’ face turned ashen the moment he saw Jonathan.
Jonathan smiled and said, “Can we talk?”
Overcome with vigilance, Cyclops shouted at the models, “Get out!”
Sensing something amiss, the models dared not stay any longer and grabbed their coats, scurrying out of the room at once.
After they left, Jonathan approached Cyclops and sat on the couch.
“What do you want?” Cyclops asked coldly.
