I Am Unstoppable novel

Mabel answered, “It's not necessary to use elixir pills all the time after opening the Door of Enlightenment. | can look for expensive herbs and make them into medications before consuming them. Then, I'll refine the impurities through bodily functions and absorb the medicinal properties into the mind.” “Does that work?” Jonathan breathed a sigh of relief.

“It's the only way. But the properties cannot be compared with Spirit Gathering Pills. The elixir pills from Divine Realm can have such an effect because they are refined through Luminary Vessel with igneous rocks and so on.” He was taken aback for a second before he uttered, “In that case, does it mean that you can barely hold on even when you're relying on medicine?” “That's right. At most, | can cultivate to Level Three Divine Master, just like Old Mr. Harrington,” Mabel responded.

Jonathan declared, “We still need to find a way to get elixir pills, then.” “I will. Elixir pills aren't an exclusive production of Divine

Realm anyway. I'll search for them everywhere.” Nodding, he promised, “Give me some time. I'll try my best to get you elixir pills.” Despite being touched by his gesture, she merely smiled and declined his offer by saying, “Silly boy, take care of yourself first. After all, I've entered the Divine Master Level.

‘You should achieve Celestial Soul as soon as possible.” ‘With a faint smile on his face, Jonathan stated, “Sure, | will.” At that point of the conversation, he stood up and bade her goodbye. “I need to go back now.” Mabel got slightly embarrassed. “Let me treat you to supper.” “I'l have to pass on that. You get drunk easily and even like to touch me after getting drunk. I'm afraid that | won't be able to hold myself back.” Shy in that aspect, she immediately thundered, “Get lost!” Jonathan chuckled before turning to leave.

In fact, he had said those words on purpose because he did not want to have a rift between the both of them.

After all, the two Precious Pills were too valuable.

If the situation were not handled properly, it would constantly stress Mabel out.

After exiting Appleton Residences, Jonathan got into his dashing Cadillac.

He turned on the music, then turned the steering wheel to drive out of the residential area.

At eleven at night, he arrived at the Harrington mansion. By then, Yareth had already gone to bed.

Alicia had fallen asleep as well.

Jonathan walked into the bedroom, being extremely careful not to make any noise.

To his surprise, Catherine was still up. She was leaning against the headboard while reading a book with the lamp on the nightstand turned on.

With the light shining on her, she appeared exceptionally beautiful. It took his breath away.

She looks as pretty as a painting.

Jonathan went over to Catherine and planted a kiss on her forehead before asking, “What are you reading?” In response, she closed the book to show him the cover.

His gaze landed on it, and he realized it was a romance titled The Good Times.

Wrapping his arm around Catherine's waist, Jonathan queried, “Is it nice?” “Yeah, it's a good read,” she answered matter-of-factly.

Her reply elicited a smile from him, and he said, “I'll shower now.” Catherine nodded. “Okay!” After showering, Jonathan wore only a pair of shorts and immediately went under the quilt. Unable to control his urge, he pulled Catherine into his embrace and kissed her

on her lips.

There was an indescribable enthusiasm and longing in his kiss. It was as though he wanted to melt her with his passion.

In the meantime, Catherine clumsily responded to his kiss.

Jonathan bubbled with excitement, and a strong sense of desire surged within him. He felt like devouring the little sheep beneath him at once.

However, he still managed to rein back his desire with his rationality in the end.

After rolling over to lie down, he hugged his wife and cooed, “Let's sleep.” Catherine obediently hummed in response.

Although she had no sexual desire, she would still give in to Jonathan if he insisted.

Of course, the man also knew about it, which was why he suppressed his desire.

He did not want to force Catherine to do things she was

unwilling to do just because of his lust.

The lamp was switched off, and the room was dark and silent.

Only the ticking of the clock on the wall could be heard.

Catherine felt exceedingly at ease as she nestled in Jonathan's arms.

Meanwhile, many thoughts ran through Jonathan's mind.

Even though he knew Lance's words made sense and he could interact with other women calmly, he still felt guilty with his wife in his embrace at that moment.

After a brief contemplation, Jonathan voiced, “Catherine, | have to come clean with you about something.” If his relationship with Lailah could end just like that, he knew it would probably be a good choice to cover it up.

Despite that, Jonathan perceived that he would not stand idly by if Lailah got into trouble in the future.

Besides, he was well aware of his feelings. There was a possibility that something would happen between him and

other women someday.

Therefore, he felt that he should be honest with Catherine.

If I can't be loyal to her, | should at least respect her and never lie to her.

“Go ahead.” Catherine shuddered before questioning softly, “Are you going to divorce me?” As a simple person, she assumed that Jonathan wanted to divorce her because he could not stand her personality.

Yet, she was proud, so she would never plead with him not to divorce her if that was the case.

“No!” Jonathan kissed her and added, “I love you so much.

‘Why would | divorce you? Don't overthink things. You have to know that you're the most important person in my life.” In that instant, the most dazzling glow he had ever seen shone in Catherine's eyes. The next second, she took the initiative to lean closer to give him a kiss on the lips.

At that moment, Catherine felt that the weight on her mind had been removed.

She then hugged Jonathan tightly. For a moment, he could not bear to tell her about that matter.

The man could not help but feel that he was a little cruel.

Nevertheless, Catherine looked up at him and asked, “Didn't you have something to tell me?” Jonathan clenched his teeth and told her about his trip to ‘Yeringham with Lailah, including the fact that he had slept with her and so on.

However, Catherine did not have any reaction after listening to the whole story.

It made him feel awkward as he never expected her to be that calm.

Just then, she gazed at him and said softly, “Jonathan, although I'm reticent, I'm not dumb. | understand what you're trying to put across.” That was his first time hearing Catherine talk so much.

Moved by it, Jonathan replied in a sincere tone, “Catherine, if I were not the Chosen One, | could

withdraw myself. Then, | would not have such problems. I'm not afraid of anything, but I'm scared of upsetting you and letting you down.” In fact, his words were not excuses.

All the evidence and incidents that happened had already proven Jonathan's destiny as the Chosen One.

He could never escape from the Great Tribulation.

Without him knowing, his fate had been decided.

For example, the rift between him and Gideon and Oswald was unavoidable, as well as the one with Jeremy.

Moreover, since Jonathan's relationship with Lailah had progressed to that stage, her grudge would undeniably be linked to him.

By the time Lailah got in danger from attempting to take her revenge, there was no way that Jonathan would ignore the matter.

Catherine was different from Jennifer. She could

comprehend the crux of the issues. In fact, she also knew Jonathan was not giving her sweet talk or excuses. He meant them from the bottom of his heart. “I get it!” was her response.

Subsequently, Catherine added, “The future is full of difficulties. You have to follow your heart and heavens. | know about all of these. Nothing else matters as long as you love me. But don't tell me about such things anymore, okay?” Touched by her words, Jonathan held her hand.

He knew Catherine was no saint, so the matter would still bother her. However, she understood that it was his fate and thus had chosen to accept it.

Despite that, she did not want to hear about those things anymore.

Jonathan responded, “I know what to do, Catherine.” Catherine immediately rested her head on his chest before whispering, “Let's sleep.”

He grunted in acknowledgment.

The weather was sunny the next day.

New Year's had just passed in Chanaea, but the atmosphere of the festive season in Yaleview had already faded.

It was caused by the distinctive economy in Chanaea.

There was no condemnation among Chanaeans as they would analyze based on reality.

Atter all, countries like Epea and Anglandur had been established for years and were considered developed countries. Their pressure for survival was not that serious, allowing them to celebrate the festive season without worries.

Everyone enjoyed it when the atmosphere was lively.

As for Chanaea, it was bustling during the festive season in the past.

At that time, Chanaeans felt less stressed and could celebrate the holidays peaceably because the inflation rate ‘was low and people were all poor.

However, the discrepancy between the rich and the poor was growing. Everyone was struggling financially. Many people wanted to take advantage of the festival to make more money, so they only cared about making a living during the festive occasion.

The festive atmosphere had decreased, whereas the desire for money had intensified.

Nevertheless, it did not mean it was something negative because any development required a process.

Growth needed time.

Perhaps it was not a bad thing to experience cruel things in the progress of growth.

That morning, Jonathan, Catherine, Alicia, and Yareth had breakfast together.

After breakfast, Jonathan accompanied Yareth to have a chat.

The younger man did not mention the matter of the Ninth Immortality Pill. If he talked about that, he would appear

way too ungrateful, as though he was treating Yareth as an outsider.

All he did was voice an odd question. “Grandpa, don't you need elixir pills now?” With a faint smile, Yareth answered, “I know what's your doubt, but elixir pills don't matter to me anymore.

Sometimes, it's not good to see through the situation so clearly. | have already known when is the end of my life.

After all, it's my fate. I'll be bound to it, and | can't escape it.

Once | run away from it, the consequence will be worse.” Jonathan's heart sank as he understood the elderly man was implying that his life would end in a year.

He was at a loss for words.

In truth, it was unnecessary to comfort Yareth as the elderly man was very insightful.

Most importantly, he was no longer afraid of death.

After chatting with Yareth, Jonathan brought the gifts along with him and drove his Cadillac to the city.

He was planning to meet Amber that day.

When his car left the Harrington mansion, he phoned her.

Amber was overjoyed to receive his call.

Jonathan uttered, “Let's meet. It's been a while since | last saw you.” “I'm working now. Why don't you come to my workplace?” she replied.

“You're at work?” He was surprised. “Where are you working?” Amber responded, “I'm at the police station of Lingston District.” “D*mn! You're still doing the same job!” Jonathan exclaimed.

Upon hearing that, she was enraged. “What do you mean by that? That's not how you should respond!” He laughed before saying, “All right. I'l head over right away.”

Jonathan stopped his Cadillac in front of the police station in Lingston District.

He did not want to go in, so he rang Amber up to ask her to come out.

“Wait a minute!” Amber said after picking up the call.

Soon, she walked out of the station.

With her attractive facial features, she looked even more stunning in her dashing police uniform.

Jonathan's heart thumped faster at the sight of her charming appearance.

Amber paid no mind to her attire as she sat directly in the passenger seat.

The moment she got in, a wave of pleasant smell wafted to his nose.

Smiling, Jonathan asked, “After leaving Horington, you still chose to serve the people in Yaleview?" “It's not easy for the junior police. Now that I'm here, | can speak up for them whenever necessary. I'm also trying to

make myself useful while I'm still able to.” “Not bad, not bad indeed,” he commented.

Sparing him a side glance, Amber uttered, “What's with the elderly vibes, though? It's as if you're my superior.” Jonathan laughed out loud and started the car. “Let me treat you to a meal. Go ahead and choose whatever you want. Don't mind the price.” “Anything would do.” She did not have much interest in food.

With that, he did not ask anything more and straightaway drove her to Irellura Café.

The desserts and coffees in the café were up to standard, especially the Irellura Coffee. It was extremely authentic.

Jonathan and Amber chose a seat next to the window.

Melodious music was played in the background, and rays of the bright sunny sun streamed through, brightening the shop.

Amber took a sip of her coffee. Though she was quiet that day, she seemed to be in a good mood.

Jonathan chose to gift her the magical, colorful lamp first.

“This is for you.” A hint of delight fleeted across her eyes as she took it over.

Judging from the packaging, she could roughly guess what it was.

Jonathan had neglected the packaging. It was not prepared exquisitely.

Then, a trace of disappointment flashed across Amber's eyes. | don't even know what | was expecting.

“Thanks. | like it a lot,” she said in the end, chuckling.

“That's great to hear.” Jonathan laughed.

“How's the trip this time?” she asked.

“Not bad,” he replied, not intending to talk about the dangerous moments in the past.

Just like that, the duo spent their time chatting as though they were old friends of one another.

‘When it was two o'clock in the afternoon, Amber said, “I need to get back to work.” Truth be told, she was not expecting to get anything from Jonathan. To catch up once in a while with him was good enough.

I'll just be his friend! Nothing more. That was what she had in mind.

“Sure, I'll send you over,” Jonathan offered, to which she replied with a joyful hum.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the police station in his.

Cadillac.

“How long will you be staying here?” Amber asked before she got out of the car.

Jonathan was slightly taken aback by her question but soon answered, “I'll leave after a few days.” “Okay,” was what she said. There was not much of a reaction from her. A few seconds later, she uttered, “Goodbye, then.”

“Hold on.” Jonathan stopped her just as she moved to get out of the car.

Amber turned her head and shot him a quizzical look.

There was a slight hesitation on his face as he took out something from his left. “I prepared another gift for you, but | was afraid it'd be too presumptuous of me. If you don't like it or feel that it doesn't suit you, just throw it away.” He handed over the box as soon as he finished speaking.

Amber was slightly stunned. Her eyes roamed over the packaging of the box in his hands, and she reckoned that the content within was along the lines of a necklace.

Her cheeks turned pink in an instant.

For a man to gift a woman necklace, it usually had a special meaning.

If they were mere acquaintances, such an act was not needed.

That was also the reason that Jonathan hesitated earlier.

At that instant, a wave of indescribable joy washed over

Amber. After taking the box, she turned around and hurriedly walked away.

Jonathan let out a sigh of relief.

At that moment, he felt at ease.

All the while, his relationship with Amber had been ambiguous. It was holding her up, too, for he had never clearly expressed his feelings to her.

As of then, he had taken a step further in their relationship.

He felt that he liked Amber. At the same time, he could not accept seeing her falling in love with another man or getting married to someone else.

Soon, Jonathan turned his car around and left.

Amber's face was crimson. My face must be burning up now.

When she entered the police station, she could not hear any of the greetings from the junior police officers. It was because she was in a hurry to return to her office.

As soon as she shut the door, her heart thumped at a rapid pace.

Then, she tore open the packaging.

At that moment, her breaths turned even heavier.

An exquisite ruby necklace was sitting in the box.

It was not cheap. The price was at least more than six hundred thousand.

Jonathan had bought two, costing him one million and five hundred thousand in total.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

He gave the blue one to Catherine and the red one to Amber.

Their prices were about the same—seven hundred and fifty thousand each.

Amber knew the implication of receiving such an expensive gift from Jonathan. It meant that she had a place in his heart, and he was not running away from his feelings.

She was also aware that accepting the necklace would be equivalent to giving him a sign that she was willing to be

with him.

Her feelings were so conflicted. On the one hand, she did not want to be a despicable paramour. On the other hand, she could not stop herself from loving him.

After mulling it over, she finally decided to give Jonathan a call.

The call went through quickly.

Jonathan was not saying anything, and Amber did not know what to say either.

Along moment had passed by the time she asked, “What do you mean by this?” “You should understand what I'm trying to convey,” he replied solemnly.

“You want me to be your lover?” “No.” “Then?” Jonathan uttered, “There are a lot of things that | don't know how to say, but | know | have to talk about them

today. | don't lead an ordinary life. After parting ways with you for over a month, | almost lost my life twice. | have no idea what the future holds for me.” Amber fell silent.

“I don't want to suppress my feelings. I'm afraid | won't have the chance to express them if | die. You know me well. I'm not making any excuses about this,” he continued.

Of course, she knew what kind of person Jonathan was.

Otherwise, she would not have loved him that much.

However, she was afraid of what society would think of her.

Jonathan voiced, “To be honest, you lead a life that's worlds apart from mine. | practice Destino Art and chase after longevity that ordinary people dare not dream of. My path is different from theirs. You aren't able to understand me on this, unlike Catherine.” “I can!” Amber said suddenly. “You refused Jennifer back then because she couldn't see the world through your eyes.

‘You married Catherine because she's someone like you.

She doesn't shackle you. Having a happy life with a family of three is not what she wishes for. | can understand all of these.” “It's good that you do,” Jonathan said.

“But I'd still be the one receiving the criticism from society,” she replied.

“I won't ask you to do anything. Just do whatever it is that makes you happy. I'm also just following my heart in doing things. | admit that I'm selfish.” Amber did not know what to say. “We'll talk about it in the future, then. Thanks for your necklace. I like it a lot.” With that, she ended the call.

As Jonathan put his phone away, a wistful smile touched his lips.

Perhaps the best solution for his predicament was to stop messing with women.

Otherwise, the other party would still be troubled even

though he could remain calm about it.

After Jonathan returned to the Harrington mansion, he was back to living his peaceful days.

He spent his time on cultivation and logging into Divine Realm's website to check if any missions were available.

Following a period of observation, he set his mind on a few.

He planned to meet up with Simon first before carrying out the missions.

At first, he thought of giving Simon a great gift, but it seemed like he was not going to make it.

The whole time, Jonathan felt that he owed Simon and his sworn siblings a lot.

Seven days later, Simon phoned Jonathan and told him to head to Lostaria directly, instructing him to bring Catherine along to complete the mission.

Since everyone was preparing to be Richard's disciples, it did not matter who would be completing the mission.

However, Simon had said before that they wanted to help

Catherine, and he had no reason to go back on his word then.

On the same day, Jonathan and Catherine boarded the plane to Lostaria.

Before leaving, Jonathan rang Amber up, but she did not pick up his call.

That discovery placed a bitter smile on his face. He knew he had given her a hard time.

A person's mind is the most complicated, after all.

Initially, Amber hoped that Jonathan would do something to express his affection toward her. When he did not, she was down in the dumps. Yet, when he did, a great sense of hesitation flooded her soul instead.

The truth was Jonathan did not think too much about it. He was not born a sentimental man.

Ten hours later, Jonathan and Catherine came out of Lostaria International Airport.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon in Lostaria. The sun

was bright, and the air was laced with the presence of the sea.

He was wearing a black leather jacket, while she was sporting a white coat.

They looked wonderfully stunning as they walked together.

There were quite a lot of the Anglandurns who could not help but take pictures of them.

It was mainly because Catherine was too pretty.

Elijah waited outside the airport to pick them up.

As soon as he got out of his car, he waved his hand at Jonathan and Catherine. When the duo approached him, he smiled and remarked, “Jonathan, Catherine, you two can go and shoot a movie. You'll outshine those male and female leads for sure.” Chuckling, Jonathan draped his arm around his shoulders and asked, “Are you doing well these days?” Elijah said sullenly, “Not really. Simon brings us to the snow mountain every day. We've been living our days like

uncultured savages. Look, even my face has gotten thinner.” “No worries. I'll treat you to a feast,” Jonathan said.

“That sounds perfect.” Elijah chuckled.

Afterward, Jonathan and Catherine got into the car. He sat in the passenger seat while she went to the back seat.

In such circumstances, he could not possibly sit with her in the back as it would seem like they treated Elijah as their driver.

Even though Elijah was his sworn brother, Jonathan still had to be careful when dealing with certain things.
