I Am Unstoppable novel

Chapter 84 Meeting Jennifer

At three in the afternoon, Jonathan, Amber, and Sergio were on a military aircraft. They were flying

toward the location where Gabriel had fallen off the cliff. Jonathan was afraid that his negligence and

rigid mindset would cause Gabriel’s escape. For example, Jonathan felt what Percy told him made

sense, that Gabriel’s life should not be cut short. Hence, he gave up on the search. In the end, Gabriel

managed to survive.

Jonathan was a careful man and would not allow himself to make a mistake like that.

Soon, the military aircraft arrived at the bottom of the cliff. There were jagged rocks surrounding a deep

lake.

One could not see the situation at the cliff because the thick mist was lingering above the escarpment.

Be it under the cliff or in the mountain range, Jonathan, Amber, and Sergio could not find any traces of

Gabriel.

Realization soon struck Jonathan that Gabriel was indeed alive.

The latter destroyed the helicopter’s engine while still flying because he believed that he would still

survive even if he fell into the deep lake.

It’s strange! Gabriel’s legs are incapacitated. How can he climb up the cliff? I can’t even do that! It’s

impossible.

“What’s in your mind?” Amber asked when she saw Jonathan lost in his thought.

Jonathan looked at the water before him and responded, “I believe that Gabriel is still alive. Do you

think there’s a haven for Gabriel under this lake?”

Amber asked, “How can you be sure? Perhaps, monsters in the lake had devoured him!”

Jonathan shook his head and replied, “Don’t you understand, Amber? The disciples of Crimson Onyx

Sect are proficient in numerology. Master Yarrow once told me that Gabriel has a long life. With the

absence of his body under the cliff, I’m confident that he’s still alive.”

“Well, you won’t be able to do anything if it’s not his time to kick the bucket,” Amber said.

Jonathan responded, “That’s not true, Amber. One will eventually die. However, it doesn’t mean that

one cannot do anything at all. Perhaps, one can change his fate with a great amount of effort.”

Hearing his words, Amber said, “He’s not a threat to us anymore since he’s immobilized. Why are you

so scared of him?”

Jonathan rubbed his nose and answered, “Gabriel is a wily and scheming man.” After a pause, he

continued, “To prevent him from seeking revenge from me, I have to do this. There has always been

bad blood between us. He can choose to tackle the ones beside me if he can’t settle accounts with me.

Therefore, I won’t allow him to live.”

In reality, Jonathan was terrified. Previously in the alchemy room, he had beaten up Gabriel badly. To

the latter, it was immense humiliation.

Gabriel’s expression was cold at that time. Also, he said that he would be back, and they would meet

one day again before jumping off the helicopter.

With that, Jonathan could not take it easy, especially with Gabriel.

Hence, Jonathan would feel extremely uneasy as long as Gabriel was still alive.

Jonathan turned around to Amber and Sergio before saying, “I’ll go down the lake and have a look.”

Then, he took off his shirt and trousers immediately. Clad in only a boxer, he took a revolver before

jumping into the lake.

Splash! The water of the calm lake splattered around as he jumped into it.

Jonathan took a deep breath and dived deep into the water. He could not help but shiver in coldness.

The temperature of the water was abnormally low on such a hot day.

Jonathan continued to dive down.

A pang of disappointment shrouded him as he realized the lake was deep enough that it was unable to

cause one’s death if a person chose to plunge into the water.

Gabriel might die if the lake was shallow.

Jonathan had dived down to about thirty meters, but he had not seen the lakebed. Deep within the

seemingly endless stretch of the water, it appeared to have another underwater world beneath. Also, it

had a lot of seaweeds.

Jonathan felt that he would die from suffocation if the diving continued. Moreover, he did not see

Gabriel’s corpse.

At that moment, he had an ominous feeling that something was about to occur.

He turned around immediately and saw a python opening its wide, blood-thirsty mouth.

Keeping himself calm, Jonathan fired at the python when it approached closer. The three bullets dug

into the python’s mouth. Soon, the blood squirted out and colored the lake, and the python died.

Without any delay, he swam to the surface.

A minute later, he came out of the water. Seeing that, Sergio dragged Jonathan ashore. After that,

Jonathan grabbed his clothing and put them on.

“How is it?” Amber asked.

Jonathan shook his head helplessly and responded, “It’s deep, and I can’t find anything down there. It’s

strange, isn’t it? Is there a hideaway at the bottom of the lake?”

“What should we do next?” Amber asked.

Feeling helpless, Jonathan could only say, “Let’s leave now.”

The next moment, Jonathan, Amber, and Sergio got into the military aircraft and left the place.

Meanwhile, Jonathan and Amber were on the private plane of the Horington military at five in the

afternoon, flying toward Horington.

Sergio bade them farewell.

To him, everything that happened that day seemed surreal. Jonathan had reminded Sergio to keep

what happened today on the low. It was because the incident that happened earlier was too sensitive.

Sergio immediately understood upon hearing that.

Meanwhile, the disciples of Crimson Onyx Sect would punish Horace. Although Horace murdered

Percy, there was no evidence to prove him guilty because Felicia’s ability could not be used against

Horace in court. In the end, Sergio and Amber decided to allow the disciples of Crimson Onyx Sect to

handle the case.

Amber and Sergio were never pedantic.

On the other hand, Jonathan was worried that Felicia could not manage the disciples of Crimson Onyx

Sect. He was afraid that the disciples would covet Felicia’s Phoenix Jade.

Sensing his worry, Felicia spoke to Jonathan through the transmission of brainwaves. She thanked

Jonathan profusely and asked him to rest assured, telling him that she feared nothing once she

returned to Crimson Onyx Sect.

Although there were uncertainties about her return to the sect, no one could do anything to her.

Besides, she had Finnegan to take care of her.

Hearing that, Jonathan could not help but ask Felicia about her relationship with Finnegan.

Felicia grinned and answered, “He was my senior, and he liked me. However, I’ve been cold to him.”

Jonathan could finally heave a sigh of relief upon hearing her words. He finally understood the entire

picture. Felicia was cold to Finnegan because she liked Gabriel. Her attention had never shifted away

from the man. Unlike Gabriel, Finnegan treated her sincerely.

Jonathan then asked, “Why is The House of Worship a thatched hut?”

Felicia smiled and answered, “Master Yarrow loves nature, and this is why he had been staying in the

hut.”

Jonathan came to a realization. “Why did Crimson Onyx Town modernize since Master Yarrow didn’t

like high-tech facilities?”

Felicia replied, “That’s because Master Yarrow knew that modernization is the general trend. He did not

like it but would not interfere with the others’ preferences.”

Jonathan could not help but have massive respect toward Percy upon hearing her explanation.

On the private jet, Jonathan and Amber stayed in the rear cabin so that the others could not hear them.

Amber asked in a low voice, “What is the Great Tribulation, and who is the Chosen One?”

After escaping from the alchemy room, he did not mention anything about the Great Tribulation and the

Chosen One because he felt it was too complex to explain. After all, it was mystical and complicated.

However, since Amber had touched on the issue, Jonathan could not avoid it. Thus, he replied, “Well,

I’m not too sure about it. It might be about the tribulations of the future.”

Petrified, Amber asked, “What is that? We’re living in a peaceful era now. Don’t try to spook me with

rumors!”

Jonathan explained, “No, it’s not what you think. The Great Tribulation is about the change of the

Heavenly Law. In other words, it’s a prophecy of destroying and eliminating the otherworldly creatures

because of the advances in technology.”

Amber shook her head and said, “I don’t understand.”

Jonathan blurted out later, “Indeed, I don’t know much too.”

Unwilling to give up, Amber asked, “Then, who is the Chosen One? Gabriel said you’re the one.”

Jonathan explained patiently, “The Chosen One has a better energy flow and luck. Try to imagine every

protagonist in fiction. The Chosen One has quite a similar setting. The only difference is that there are

a lot of the Chosen Ones in the real world. In the future, the Chosen Ones will take part in the Great

Tribulation to eliminate the otherworldly creatures for the Heavenly Law.”

Amber was not sure exactly what he meant.

Anyhow, it was a topic too unearthly to discover.

In the end, she just let it be.

“Oh, right!” Jonathan changed the topic and said, “Rest well today. Bring your subordinates to Golden

Years. At the same time, invite some reporters and tell them you’ve captured the criminal. Also, tell

them there isn’t such thing as the vengeful spirits. Allow them to take some pictures too.”

Amber nodded and responded, “All right! It’s a contribution to the police!” Thinking of this, she would

gladly accept the chance to show how capable she was.

The incident of the Golden Years had been plaguing the city council. Everyone would be happy if

Amber could solve the case. Plus, no one would dare to steal her spotlight.

Suddenly, Amber thought of something and stated, “The owner of Golden Years, Dilbert, is a prudent

money businessman. He still thinks that selling off Golden Years to you at two million is going to benefit

him. Unbeknownst to him, it’s a bad deal, and he will regret it later.”

Jonathan smiled faintly. I’ve never been deluded before when I was in Smealand making deals more

than millions. ”It’s not easy to trick me.”

Amber froze upon hearing his words. I think so too!

It was already seven in the evening when they reached Horington. Jonathan then bade farewell to

Amber. It’s time for me to visit Jen. I’ve been away from home for too long!

He enjoyed the freedom and tended to run away from responsibilities. Who cares? I’ll sleep with her

first and think about everything later!

It was a man’s nature after all.

Night had fallen, and the streets of Horington were brightly lit.

The neon signs on the bridge glowed brightly, and more vehicles gathered on the road.

It was a bustling night view.

On his way home, Jonathan thought it was improper to meet her empty-handed. Hence, he went to the

flower shop and bought a bouquet of roses. Also, he wanted to buy a handbag for her. Ah! What’s this

brand? Never mind. He picked up the most expensive handbag from the store and purchased it.

Jonathan was finally appeased after he did all that. Then, he hurriedly went out and headed toward his

destination.

Jonathan got out of the taxi once he arrived at the rented house. To his disappointment, Jennifer was

not at home.

Fortunately, he had the keys, and he went into the house after unlocking the door.

The house was neat and clean.

After switching on the lights, Jonathan placed the flowers and sat at the edge of Jennifer’s bed. Where

is she?
