When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel

Chapter 1337 Just A Joke

Cassandra's team of parents were running as if their lives depended on it. On the other hand, Zachary's team appeared entirely indifferent to the outcome of the race, deliberately underperforming. "What on earth are these guys doing?"

Yawning, Jonathan said, "It's quite simple really. They're all trying to gain their opponent's favor."

"Why aren't they trying to gain my favor?" Zachary was taken aback.

"Compared to Nicholas and the Jamieson family, I believe you're not in the same league, Mr. Zachary," Jonathan bluntly stated.

Zachary was at a loss for words.

However, he had promised to give the car model to Jonathan, so he couldn't go back on his word.

Zachary made his way toward the victorious Cassandra and her team.

"Felix, would you consider selling this car model to me? In return, I'll buy you anything you want in the future. How does that sound?"

For the first time, Felix had triumphed over Jonathan, a smug smile spreading across his face.

"No way. I won this fair and square. If Jon wants it, he'll have to get it himself."

Felix was not going to have anyone spoil his rare victory.

Zachary's expression turned grim as he turned to look at Nathaniel, praying that the latter wouldn't really send him away.

Jonathan wasn't as childish as Felix. He stepped forward and said, "Mr. Zachary, I don't want it anymore. It's just a model, right? It's not a big deal."

Upon hearing these words, Cassandra couldn't help but respond sarcastically, "It might just be a model, yet some people still can't obtain it, can they?" Felix dared not upset Jonathan, so he spoke in a hushed tone.

"Indeed, it's even beyond the reach of Jon."

Jonathan cast a dismissive glance at him, then took Zachary's hand. "Mr. Zachary, let's go check out the other events," he suggested. "Alright," Zachary readily agreed.

He had figured out that Cassandra had done it on purpose, having already arranged everything with the parents ahead of time.

Upon seeing Jonathan desiring other prizes, Cassandra also directed her gaze toward the other parents.

Nathaniel and Cecilia were both watching when Vivian scoffed, "I can't believe the nerve!"

"Indeed, whatever Jon wanted, they would all fight for it," Meredith concurred. "Should we go and

the teacher? This is not fair at all."

Nathaniel spoke reassuringly. "Don't worry, Jon is no ordinary child. He won't let them push him around."

He had a great deal of confidence in his son.

Even though Cecilia was worried, she agreed with what Nathaniel had said.

Just as expected, aside from the car model earlier, Jonathan won all the other prizes by thrashing his competitors.

After giving the other parents a hard

time, he made his way over to an

area where the children were having theirown competition and took a seat.

"I've always wanted this antique abacus."

The parents were all taken aback.

l.ne

the children were to compete among themselves, especially in mental arithmetic, no one would be a match for Jonathan,

Their attempts to curry favor with Cassandra and Nicholas started to feel increasingly futile.

Indeed, among all the children in the class, none could compare to Jonathan. He successfully obtained the antique abacus.

By then, Cassandra and her allies had realized that Jonathan had been fooling them all along.

"Darn it, I can't even beat a kid." Cassandra clenched her fists in frustration.

Jonathan purposefully glanced in their direction. "Cheating is useless in the face of absolute strength."

His mental arithmetic was so quick that even children with calculators couldn't keep up.

Zachary watched in silence as Jonathan demonstrated his skills. it reminded him of his childhood with Nathaniel.

Nathaniel was really something else. I, along with the other children, merely served the sideshow.

"Could you put in a good word for me with your dad later?" Zachary whispered.

Jonathan could tell how much effort Zachary had put in on his account. "Mr. Zachary, my daddy was just joking with you."
