When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 1337

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.

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.”
