I Am Unstoppable novel

YYareth continued, “In the future, both of you might be involved in a life-and-death duel. What would you do if only one of you could survive?” Jonathan fell silent for a moment before he replied, “If such a situation really occurs one day, | would be dead if | lose; if 1 win, | would let her off the hook to repay your favor today.” A rather odd expression appeared on Yareth's face. “Young man, you really don't have any intentions to soften your stance, do you?” Jonathan smiled wryly. “The help that | have gotten from you today is a matter of life and death, and | know that it is not a small matter for you either. Of course, | would not tell you any lies.” YYareth decided to drop the topic and stood up instead.

“Forget it. Let's go to have our meal.” Jonathan also followed suit as well. “Sure!” Mainly healthy and rather bland food was served in the vintage-looking dining hall There were four dishes on the table—three of the dishes were vegetarian food, but one of

them was beef stew.

‘When Jonathan sat down with Yareth, Bruce explained, “Old Mr. Harrington is a vegetarian, but he asked the chef to prepare this beef stew for you, Mr. Lawson.” Jonathan immediately thanked them. “Thank you, Old Mr.

Harrington and Bruce.” YYareth smiled slightly. “I'll be happy as long as you like it.” “Of course!” Jonathan quickly replied.

Then, Yareth asked, “Would you like some wine?” “It's your call. I'll drink with you if you want to.” YYareth chuckled after hearing that. “Good, good. You're a decent young man.” His sudden praise made Jonathan wonder what he had done right.

However, they did not drink any wine in the end. Instead, Jonathan had a second serving because the food was quite delicious.

It was around one o'clock in the afternoon after lunch when

Yareth said, “An old man like me don't feel well unless | take a nap in the afternoon. It's time for my nap now, so make yourself at home, Jonathan.” Jonathan nodded in response. “No problem.” Naturally, he could not leave even after Yareth walked back to his bedroom to rest. After all, the latter had already asked Jonathan to stay here for a day to observe him.

The weather outside was rather cloudy with strong wind.

As Bruce also went away to serve Yareth, Jonathan felt slightly bored being all by himself. After all, he did not know anyone here.

Nevertheless, he was a carefree person, so he wandered around the house.

A few gardeners were trimming the bushes in the garden.

They seemed to take care of the flowers and the trees tentatively. The plants were even more difficult to take care of in the winter.

Standing on a pathway in the garden, Jonathan was deep in his thoughts. How would Old Mr. Harrington test me?

Would he give me a tough time like last time? Or did he leave me alone on purpose to observe my behavior? Should | help the gardeners out to show my diligence? As soon the last thought popped up in his mind, he rejected it immediately. I'm not being tested as a housewife anyway.

I don't need to do that.

Even after mulling it over, no answers came to his mind.

Hence, he went into a room and started to cultivate. As soon as he started practicing Ultra Sun Moon Mantra, time flew by quickly for him.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already six o'clock in the evening.

The sky became dark much faster in Yaleview. At this hour, it was already dark outside, and Bruce came over to invite Jonathan for dinner.

The latter smiled in response and agreed to the invitation.

He had dinner with Yareth with the same amount of dishes and a bowl of soup.

After he greeted Yareth, he dug in right away. Similarly, Yareth also began eating heartily.

After they had their meal, Yareth made the same statement that he was quite old and wanted to take a rest, so he asked Jonathan to spend time alone.

“Sure,” Jonathan replied.

After Yareth retired to his room, Jonathan went to Bruce to ask the latter to prepare a room for him to sleep in.

Needless to say, Bruce fulfilled his request.

Without even taking a shower, Jonathan sat cross-legged on the bed and started his cultivation with Ultra Sun Moon Mantra. Only until it was well past midnight that he lay down to sleep.

The next morning, he woke up at eight o'clock in the morning.

The morning weather was quite pleasant. When he was still in bed, he could feel the sun ray shining on him from the window.

After getting up and walking out of his room, he walked to the living room and saw that Mabel was already there.

Meanwhile, Yareth was sitting in the center while Mable was sitting beside him. She wore a black coat that made her exuded a cool and powerful aura.

As usual, Bruce was standing next to them.

Feeling awkward, Jonathan cleared his throat. “Haha, you guys are up so early. Oh, hello, Mabel. You are here quite early too.” However, that was not what he wanted to say. Mabel, you traitor. | can't believe that you didn't inform me before coming here.

“How did you sleep last night, Jonathan?” Yareth flashed a faint smile at him.

“Pretty good. Thanks for everything, Old Mr. Harrington,” Jonathan quickly replied.

“Good, good. Take a seat.” As Jonathan sat down, he was flummoxed by everything that had been happening around him.

Just then, Mabel opened her mouth and said, “Old Mr.

Harrington, so what is your decision then?” A warm smile appeared on Yareth's face. “I'm very pleased with Jonathan, and I'm willing to recommend him. But only on one condition.” Jonathan was surprised to hear that. He wondered what he had done well to please Yareth.

“Please continue, Old Mr. Harrington!” Mabel urged.

“I want Jonathan to marry my granddaughter, Catherine.

After the wedding, | will immediately recommend him to Divine Realm.” “What?” Taken aback, Jonathan shot to his feet subconsciously.

At the same time, Mabel's face fell.

YYareth looked at Jonathan with slight displeasure.

“Catherine is a rare beauty that many men want to marry, but | didn't agree to any of their requests. Don't you dare disregard my request flippantly.”

“But Old Mr. Harrington...” Jonathan paused for a while before he continued in a serious tone, “What is the reason for such a request?” YYareth smiled. “Do | need to have a specific reason for this? If you really want an answer, | can only say that | like you a lot and | want you to be my grandson-in-law.” Jonathan was at a loss for words.

“Why? Are you unwilling to do so?” Yareth demanded.

After taking a deep breath, Jonathan replied, “That's correct. I'm unwilling to marry her.” Both Yareth and Bruce were astounded to receive such a reply from him, but Mabel remained impassive.

“Why?” Yareth questioned.

“First of all, | don't even know Ms. Catherine, let alone have any romantic feelings for her. Secondly, I'm a man of freedom. | don't like to be restricted, and | don't even want to get married. If | marry anyone, | will only hurt her, and | don't want to hurt Ms. Catherine. Lastly, I'm still in love with

another woman, but | told her that | could not marry her. If | go back on my word and marry Ms. Catherine, this goes against my principles,” Jonathan explained.

YYareth and Bruce exchanged glances before the former said, “Very well, Jonathan. You've passed my test. If you had agreed to my request immediately just now, 1 would not recommend you to Divine Realm. Even though our exchange yesterday was brief, I'm very skilled at observing a person's character. | guess you can say this is my only strong suit. | know very well that you're not a man who seeks comfort and peace. You can resolve any problems cool-headedly, but you detest a regular life.” Jonathan was taken aback by Yareth's observations. What the f*ck? Gosh, this is so unexpected! So this is the real test instead! However, he also heaved a sigh of relief at the same time.

Yareth continued, “I also asked Bruce to look into your background. You're a man of mystery, and we couldn't find

anything about your past. However, | know everything you have done in Horington. Even without taking your past into account, I'm sure you're a worthy man based on your current behavior right now. | also know that the woman you like is Jennifer.” Cold sweat broke out on Jonathan's forehead right away. | hope he doesn't know that | peeped on Jennifer while she was taking a shower! Otherwise, this is going to be really embarrassing!” After that, Yareth changed the topic. “Well, that was the test just now. Jonathan, now I'm going to tell you what | really want from you.” Jonathan immediately regained his serious composure and nodded at Yareth respectfully. “Go ahead, Old Mr.

Harrington!” “I will only recommend you if you marry Catherine. | know you like Jennifer, but | have to be frank with you—that girl doesn't suit you at all. If you insist on being together with her, you're being selfish and you'll ruin her. However, my granddaughter, Catherine, is different. Both of you are

similar to each other, and her capability is no less than yours. Both of you could help each other out, and she could even accompany you to travel the rest of the world without being your burden. You have to always keep in mind that you are the Chosen One, so you will encounter endless troubles. If you are with Jennifer, not only will she drag you down, she might be dead because of you.” There was a pause before Yareth continued to speak. “I hope you won't be so quick to reject my request. You should go back and think hard about what | have just told you. The test is still a month away, so you have some time before that. One of your replies yesterday left a deep impression on my mind. You said that we must love ourselves first. However, | think first and foremost... we must be alive to do that.” Jonathan did not know what to reply to Yareth as he pondered over the latter's words.

Just then, Mabel stood up and nodded to Yareth. “Old Mr.

Harrington, I'll leave with Jonathan first. After he has made up his mind, we will come back to you.” YYareth gave a nod of approval. “All right.” Mabel turned around to face Jonathan. “Let's go.” The latter took a deep breath before bidding farewell with YYareth and Bruce. After that, he left the Harrington mansion with Mabel, who was still driving the same military vehicle as before.

After Jonathan sat in the passenger seat, Mabel started the car and drove in the direction of the downtown.

“I' have never once worried that you might fail Old Mr.

Harrington's test. | don't think I'm fit to give you advice on this matter, but | believe that you are able to come to an answer yourself.” She smiled.

Jonathan asked, “In your opinion, would he really refuse to recommend me if | don't agree to his request?”
