Luna would never believe that she would have anything to do with the country bumpkin before her. At this moment, Jonathan said, "I said you are not blind, it's written in black and white on the paper, why are you calling me a fraud?" "This marriage contract must be fake, why should I look at it?" After finishing, Luna snatched the marriage contract from David's hands, didn't even glance at it, and tore it to shreds. "You...you tore up my marriage contract, who the hell do you think you are, are you sick?" "I am Luna!" Luna stared at Jonathan, her face showing a hint of arrogance and disdain. She looked down at Jonathan as if she were looking down on him. "So, you're the wife, why didn't you say so earlier." Hearing Jonathan's call, Luna's face instantly turned red. She was about to retort when a voice spoke. "Young man, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being rude to you!" A man in a white suit walked into the hall, followed by two bodyguards. "It's Andrew Lewis, Mr. Lewis is here!" "Why wouldn't Mr. Lewis come to the Tatham family's celebration banquet? Mr. Lewis heard what the country bumpkin just said, this guy is unlucky." "Exactly, the whole Skyward State knows about Mr. Lewis and Ms. Tatham's relationship. This country bumpkin wants to cut in, but he doesn't even look at his own status. What can he compete with Mr. Lewis?" Under everyone's gaze, Andrew walked straight to the front and said to David, "Andrew, on behalf of the Lewis family, greets Mr. Tatham. I prepared some gifts just now, so I'm late. I hope the old patriarch doesn't mind." After he finished speaking, a bodyguard behind Andrew presented a box. When the box was opened, there was a blue, ice crystal-like snow lotus in it! "My God, it's a top-grade snow lotus! This...this gift is definitely worth a fortune!" "Exactly, I've lived for most of my life, and this is the first time I've seen such a snow lotus. This kind of snow lotus is hard to come by, it's probably the best gift at this celebration banquet." Hearing the astonishment of the people around him, David smiled and said, "Andrew is thoughtful." Andrew laughed and said, "Mr. Tatham is serious. This is just a small token from me. Unlike someone else, who didn't even bring a gift when they came." Hearing this, Jonathan was displeased. Who was this guy mocking! "Who said I didn't bring a gift?" Andrew asked, "Oh? So where is your gift?" Jonathan immediately put a bag of cucumbers he was holding onto the ground, "This is my gift, these cucumbers are grown in my own garden, They are pure and pollution-free." Pfft! Someone suddenly laughed, followed by everyone else bursting into laughter. "I can't take it anymore, I'm going to die of laughter!" "Is this guy a comedian sent by a monkey? I've never seen anyone give cucumbers as a gift!" Andrew even more disdainfully said, "Kid, I advise you to leave quickly. You're not qualified to compete with me for Luna!" Jonathan ignored him and looked at David, "Mr. Tatham, I just want to ask you one thing, this marriage contract is your arrangement, will you let us get married or not?" David said, "Indeed, the marriage contract was arranged by me. However, young man, ten years have passed, times are developing, these old agreements should be abolished." "Abolished? Mr. Tatham, you're really shameless, cancelling the marriage contract that you set up!" "You!" A hint of anger appeared on David's face. "Humph, Jonathan, it's not that my grandfather is not keeping his word, but I want to cancel this marriage contract." At this moment, Luna stepped forward and spoke. "You? On what grounds do you cancel the marriage contract?" Jonathan asked. "Just because I, Luna, look down on you. There are many people in Skyward State who want to pursue me, they are either the sons of some families or elites in the society, I don't understand who gave you the courage, a country bumpkin from the countryside, to have the audacity to marry me, Jonathan, you are not worthy of me!" "You damn woman, I'm not good enough for you, you're not good enough for me!" Jonathan was so angry, damn, are the girls in the city so great? I won't take this nonsense! "You!" Luna's face turned cold. "Enough!" David spoke, "Jonathan, I will not pursue you for insulting my granddaughter, considering your Madam's feelings. The matter of the marriage contract is hereby null and void. I will give you one hundred thousand as compensation, take the money and leave quickly." One hundred thousand? Jonathan sneered in his heart. If it were before, Jonathan would have been shocked by this number. He loves money, and he also believes that no one in this world doesn't love money. But he just earned a million from someone else, what's a mere ten thousand to a millionaire like him! Even without that million, he wouldn't take this ten thousand. Taking it would be a slap in his face and a slap in the face of his great Madam! Jonathan sneered, "Mr. Tatham, this ten thousand is too hot for me to hold. I'm surprised my master even asked me to come down the mountain to save your life. Now it seems unnecessary. You just try your luck and live a little longer to suffer less!" Hearing this, David was shocked. What did this kid mean? At this moment, Jonathan looked at Luna, "You damn woman, do you think I have to marry you? You don't even look at yourself. There are many people who want me to marry them. What are you, you, who looks like a freak, dare to be with me? Fortunately, you cancelled the marriage contract. Otherwise, if I married you, I would definitely be unlucky!" After speaking, Jonathan picked up the bag of cucumbers on the ground and strode out. "You! You bastard!" Luna was so angry that her face turned red. The men who usually surrounded her were all obedient to her. This country bumpkin from the countryside actually dared to scold her! At this time, Andrew stepped forward to block Jonathan, "Kid, you first disrespected Mr. Tatham, and now you insult Luna. Do you believe I can make you leave here lying down?" Jonathan said coldly, "This is my business with the Tatham family, don't bark like a dog next to me. In our village, dogs that bark randomly are killed." Hearing this, everyone at the celebration banquet was taken aback, and then their faces turned very exciting. "This country bumpkin must be crazy, he actually dares to scold Mr. Lewis!" "Hmph, with Mr. Lewis's strength, he can definitely make this country bumpkin unable to survive in Skyward State!" "Whether he can walk out of the hotel is still a question, not to mention the Tatham family's thugs, just the two bodyguards behind Mr. Lewis can disable him, this country bumpkin is dead for sure!" "Kid, kneel down now and apologize to Mr. Tatham and Luna, and I will let you go this time. Otherwise, I will make you regret coming to this world!" Andrew said coldly. David on the side didn't say anything, seemingly agreeing with Andrew's actions. For a moment, the entire hall fell silent, and everyone looked at Jonathan. They wanted to see if this country bumpkin would kneel down and apologize. "Make me apologize? Just because of you guys?" With that, Jonathan swept his gaze around the people. "Since that's the case, don't blame me for being rude. Get him!" Andrew waved his hand, and the two bodyguards behind him immediately stepped forward. Just then, a voice came from the door. "Hehe, the Tatham family really has a great prestige!"
