Chapter 14 - I Will Marry Him

"what? This handsome young man is her fiance?"

"From the looks of him, I think he is competent too"

"I see, that's why Mr. Jenner approved of him being his granddaughter's fiance"

Many comments from the crowd can be heard in the party. Everyone in the party can't recover from shock including Bonna's family and friends. Samson is about to pass out but his thirty bodyguard regain their senses.

"Get your hands off on Mr. Grant!!"

"Are you courting death?"

"Do you hear us punk?"

Josh ignored them.. the thirty bodyguards decided to attack Josh. He turn his head to look at the bodyguards and said in a cold voice "are you here to crash my engagement party?"

Suddenly the temperature in the villa dropped. Everyone can feel his icy and suffocating aura swept the entire villa. Everyone in the villa can't move, the pressure is worst for the bodyguards of Samson. They can feel the killing intent in Josh aura. They are feeling the danger and they didn't dare to make any noise or any move. They fear that if they make a sound or move even an inch of their body, their lives will be over in an instant.

"Samson Grant, are you here to crash my engagement?" To Josh, Samson is good as dead. Samson look into Josh eyes and he only saw countless deaths and souls that are being tortured in hell.

'this person is terrifying who is he?' he can't think straight and focused on grasping some air.

"No of course not your excellency, please spare me. I will not trouble you again I promise"

"Apologize to the Jenner's, to my grandparents and to my future wife"

Josh let go of Samson and instead of apologizing he ordered his men to attack.

"Attack this punk you hear me?! I will take responsibility if you kill him! Go!" His veins are popping out in his head. Anger surge to him causing him to not think rationally.

The bodyguards attack Josh and to everyone's surprise. He move like a phantom and dislocated the limbs of the thirty experts of Samson. They didn't even last a minute. In just a matter of seconds all of Samson's bodyguards are wailing on the ground shrieking in pain.

Cold sweats are visible in Samson's face. His whole body is trembling. He didn't know what kind of monster he had just provoked.

"You should understand that I don't like to repeat my words"

Samson instantly ran and kneeled in front of the Jenner's. "Please forgive me this time Robert I will not dare to cross you again. Bonna I will pay for my mistakes please let me off this time. I'm begging you" he kowtowed while crying.

Such a shocking scene unfolds in

Jenner's Villa. No one expected that the helmsman of a powerful A rank family will end up kneeling and begging for his life.

"Let's do to him what he did to us back then"

"I agree we should take their assets"

"Yes this is the perfect opportunity"

Many from the crowds are Jenner's allies and business partners. They are excited to the rise of the Jenner family. They know about the battle between Douglas family and Jenner together with the other four families. Although the Jenner and it's allies has slight edge over the Douglas. It will still bring catastrophe to them if the both party go all out. Seizing the assets of an A rank family will help a lot in their strength. It will also strengthen it's allies and business partners. They are expecting Robert to seize the opportunity.

"Enough, get lost this is my granddaughters engagement party. Remember this we are not done, I will destroy you after this" Robert threatened him. A trace of disappointment flashed in the Jenner family's eyes. It is a great opportunity to strengthen themselves and it will help them in their battle against the Douglas family.

"Yes, yes! Thank you Robert" he quickly ran away and with the help of his bodyguards.

After that there's a minute of awkward silence. No one wants to speak. Bonna is staring at Josh, when their eyes met Josh quickly avoid making eye contact with her.

Robert walks and clear his throat "ehem! So Bonna what are you going to say earlier? Is it about your fiance? It seems like you don't want to-"

"I will marry him!" she answered without hesitation.

Everyone in the hall are dumbfounded when she answered the question. Her parents jaw dropped and her grandparents sigh in relief. Josh's heart is beating louder. 'what? I thought she will not agree'

"What did you say?" He clearly heard it but he wanted to hear it again.

"I will marry you" she instantly blushed when she realized her tone was so affectionate.

Her affectionate tone and words sound so sweet in his ears. He wants to jump, fly, and climb to the tallest mountain to shout that his beloved woman will be his wife.

The five helmsman together with their subordinates who's aware of Josh's identity all clapping and shouting to control the atmosphere of the hall. Soon the crowd also clapping and congratulating them for their engagement.

Soon the party started and they sit on their respective seats. Robert invite Josh to sit beside her granddaughter in the main table.

During the entire party, the engaged couple didn't even exchange words. There is awkward tension between them. Bonna want to ask him a lot of questions and apologize for what she did back then. While Josh blushing because of what happened earlier. 'Bonna hates me before but why did she agree to marry me? Is it because she hates that James than me?' Josh fell in deep thoughts.

The engagement party ended and all the relatives, friends and allies of the Jenner family knows Josh. Everyone went home only Bonna's family remain. Josh is not a part of Jenner family it's not appropriate for him to stay he bid farewell to Bonna's family and to Bonna's grandparents but before he goes. He gave them beautiful gifts.

"Untie and Uncle I brought you gifts I hope you like it"

Amelia's face was still gloomy 'don't think you can stay in our family for too long'

William smiled and take the gifts "thank you Young Man"

"It's late I'm going home now, Grandpa and grandma I'm going home thank you so much for the party I appreciate it" he bows to them.

"We hope to see you again Josh, come and visit us tomorrow" Christine walk up to him and gave him a hug.

Bonna doesn't want him to go, she bit her lip and muster all her courage to speak."Grandpa we have a lot of room to spare, it's pretty late and everyone toast to him. He might be a little drunk I think it's better if he stay for the night"

Everyone once again are shocked by Bonna's words. William was about to go crazy, he knows to well her daughter but this is the first time he saw her take the initiative for a man. He saw a mysterious smile formed in his father's lips. He feels so uneasy 'why do I think that father really favors this kid? I know my father well maybe there's something more to my son-in-law'

Josh was too stunned to speak he can't even move muscle.

"What do you think Josh?" Robert ask him.

"Please Mr. Silver it is an honor for us to have you stay for the night."

Even the butler and higher maids are respectful of Josh. "O-okay.. I'll stay for the night"

All of them return to their villa. The family opened Josh's gifts for them. They were stunned for Trisha she received a diamond necklace worth 80 million. She dreamed of having this specific necklace for a long time but she has no money to spare. Even though their family is wealthy they can't just spend 80 million in one go. Amelia received a dress with glittering diamonds in the neck and a crystal heels and it cost around 100 million. William was laughing and shouting, he was very pleased for the gift that he received. It was a pill of purity and pill of cultivation. The pill of purity can clean your blood and strengthen your physical attributes. It can also boost your regeneration and even if your opponent is at the same level as yours as long as you take this pill you will be stronger by leaps and bounds. The pill of cultivation is a powerful pill and a rare pill that can boost your martial art level only if you are below the warmaster level. The effects of this pill will decrease once you get higher. To a martial artist this is a treasure they won't sell it at any price. As for Bonna she received a beautiful bracelet made in some kind of materials that they don't know. She examine the bracelet and she saw a symbol of S with a sword in the middle. They're in awe of the amazing bracelet. Little did they know that the bracelet is made of high concentrated materials found in the asteroids. This kind of bracelet will be given to the wife of the patriarch. While their family is busy admiring the bracelet suddenly a thought comes in their mind. 'where did he get this gifts?'
