Chapter 50 Only Giving Up In The Face Of Death
As of now, Jennifer decided to go along with Jonathan’s plans, as she did not have any experience in
running a bar. Although she was thrilled by the idea of being a businessman, she was not exactly sure
how to go about it.
“The Temptation!” Jonathan exclaimed as he parked his car in front of the bar. “This is the most popular
bar on Bar Street. Let’s go in and take a look and learn a thing or two from them.”
As he said that, he got out of the car and opened the door for Jennifer.
Jennifer then got out of the car as well. After she surveyed her surroundings, she noticed that the cars
parked around them were all luxury brands. They made Jonathan’s AMC Gremlin look pathetic in
comparison.
However, Jonathan was unbothered by this.
The two of them then made their way into The Temptation. The Temptation was an entertainment bar.
Before they stepped in, they were already hit by a wave of deafening heavy metal music. Once they
entered, they noticed that the bar was huge, and there was a stage set up just for performances. They
also had a spacious dance floor.
At that moment, performers were putting on a seductive pole-dancing performance on stage.
On the dance floor, people were dancing away under the flashing strobe lights.
There was always a sort of magic that bars had.
Jonathan led Jennifer over to the bar counter. There were four bartenders at the counter, and a
beautiful young lady came over to take their order. She was decked in her uniform as she smiled and
asked them politely, “What would the two of you like to drink?”
Jonathan grinned heartily and replied, “I’ll get one glass of beer. How about you, Jen?”
“I’ll have one Blue Lagoon,” Jennifer replied.
“All right. Please give me a moment,” the girl replied. With that, she immediately served Jonathan a
glass of cold beer. Soon after, she started to make a Blue Lagoon for Jennifer.
Jonathan took a big gulp of the iced beer. The coolness spread throughout his body, making him feel
refreshed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter that, he started to scan his surroundings. After being to so many bars, Jonathan couldn’t help but
search for beautiful girls that he could lay his hands on.
However, since he was with Jennifer, he had to restrain himself.
Once Jennifer took a sip of Blue Lagoon, her mouth became filled with its icy, tart, astringent, and
sweet taste, all at once. It was an intriguing experience for her.
“Jen, why don’t we go and dance on the dance floor?” Jonathan suggested.
Jennifer glanced at the dance floor and frantically shook her head. “I don’t know how to dance.”
Jonathan chuckled at her reply. “Neither do I. It’s not like many of them can dance either. They’re just
playing around or trying to take advantage of others.”
A flush crept up Jennifer’s face. “I guess I’ll pass. You can go ahead.”
“All right. I’ll go then.” Jonathan chuckled. In truth, he didn’t want Jennifer to go out on the dance floor
either. It was just that he didn’t want to go on his own. Additionally, he was worried that Jennifer would
be taken advantage of by others.
After taking another gulp of his beer, Jonathan headed toward the dance floor.
Once he stepped onto the dance floor, Jonathan fit right in. It was the life that he enjoyed living.
He felt carefree and unrestricted.
After a while, he didn’t feel like staying on the dance floor any longer. He then walked off the dance
floor with Yvette Jennings.
Once they got off the dance floor, Stuart Larson, a blonde gangster, trailed after them with three other
gangsters behind him.
Those four youths were ruthless thugs.
Jonathan was afraid that Jennifer would see this. He looked behind him, but fortunately, she wasn’t
there. Maybe she went to the restroom. Even then, he was still feeling anxious. He let go of Yvette’s
hand and said, “I have something to attend to, so I’ll be going off first.”
Just as he was about to leave, the four gangsters immediately blocked his path.
Stuart glared viciously at Jonathan and spat, “Are you trying to run away after fooling around with my
girl?”
Yvette was also annoyed with Jonathan as she asked him, “Aren’t you a man? Why are you afraid of
him?”
Stuart was further enraged by Yvette’s words.
Jonathan chuckled as he glanced at Stuart. “She already stated that she isn’t your girlfriend. Why are
you still being so shameless?”
Upon hearing that, Stuart was infuriated. He raised his fist at Jonathan and yelled at the others, “Get
him!”
Jonathan was unfazed by Stuart’s threat and kicked him before they could do anything to him. Stuart
was sent flying with Jonathan’s kick. He slammed onto the floor heavily and couldn’t get back up.
The rest of them charged at Jonathan and grabbed his legs and waist.
However, Jonathan pulled the back of their shirts and tossed them aside with ease like they were bags
of garbage. In the blink of an eye, they were all flung away. Fighting with these gangsters was a piece
of cake for Jonathan.
Yvette was stunned after she witnessed the scene. She rushed up to Jonathan and grabbed his arm.
“You’re so strong!”
Just then, Jonathan noticed that Jennifer was standing by the side and looking at him. He shook Yvette
off, causing the latter to lose her balance. It took her a while to finally regain her balance.
Jonathan walked toward Jennifer and grinned widely at her. “Jen.”
Jennifer had indeed gone to the restroom earlier. Upon seeing the scene in front of her, she asked,
“What happened here?”
Once he heard her question, Jonathan couldn’t help but brag, “I’m just too charming. A young girl threw
herself at me, and her boyfriend got jealous and tried to teach me a lesson. But as you’ve seen, I
ended up teaching them a lesson instead.”
“There’s no reason for us to continue staying here. Let’s go,” Jonathan added. He wanted to leave
because he was afraid that his lie would get exposed.
Naturally, Jennifer followed him.
After they paid the bill and left the bar, a group of gangsters ran after them before they could get far.
“Stop right there!” There were around twenty gangsters in the group, and all of them were holding steel
pipes in their hands as they approached them menacingly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJennifer was shocked by the sight. Jonathan instantly grabbed her hand and assured her, “It’s going to
be fine.” Although they could run away, Jonathan wasn’t someone who simply ran away in such
situations. He turned around to face the gangsters with Jennifer and waited for them to catch up.
In the group that was charging at them, Stuart and Yvette stood out from the rest. Besides the two of
them, Jonathan also noticed a bald man in a flowery top. At one glance, Jonathan knew that he was
the leader.
Soon enough, Jonathan and Jennifer were surrounded by the gangsters.
Stuart pointed Jonathan out to the bald man. “Doug, he’s the one who tried to steal my girl.”
“Keep quiet,” the bald man ordered sternly.
Even Yvette seemed to fear him and didn’t dare to utter a single word.
The bald man whom Stuart called Doug was Douglas Quinn, and The Temptation was his territory.
Stuart, the blond gangster, was his subordinate.
After learning that his subordinate was beaten up, Douglas knew that he had to settle the score for him.
At that moment, Douglas glanced at Jonathan. After giving Jonathan a cold glare, he turned his
attention toward Jennifer.
Once he laid eyes on her, a strange gleam appeared in his eyes. To be precise, there was a lecherous
gleam in his gaze.
Jennifer was wearing a red slip dress that day, and she looked breezy and stunning. There was no man
who wouldn’t fall for her mesmerizing and mature beauty.
Jonathan noticed and detested the way Douglas was fixing his eyes on Jennifer. He felt as though
Douglas had stolen Jennifer from him. With his brows furrowed, he stood in front of Jennifer and
blocked her from Douglas’ view. Jennifer felt an immense sense of security. It was as if Jonathan was a
sturdy wall that was shielding her. At that moment, she felt that she wouldn’t be afraid even if the
ground beneath her started to crumble.
“So, you’re the one who took advantage of Stuart’s girl?” Douglas asked Jonathan coldly.
Jonathan was unfazed by Douglas’ questioning and replied coolly, “She was the one who tried to take
advantage of me.”
Seeing Jonathan’s contempt and indifferent reaction, Douglas’ gaze turned as cold as ice. “It seems
like you won’t give up until you’re in the face of death. Beat him to death!”
