Chapter 121 Javier, the Devil

Author: Nine Linked Rings
last update Last Updated: 2022-02-28 16:30:10
Zephiel had once said to Javier a long time ago, when his parents had disappeared, that he would tell him what had happened when he came of age and got married.

Now, although Javier was still single, his wedding was only a few days away, which was why he wanted to know what had happened.

However, Zephiel still gently shook his head. “A promise is a promise. I told you that I would only tell you what happened after you got married. That was the deal.”

‘A promise is a promise? Come on, it’s obvious that this cunning old fox is just trying to stall for as long as he can.’

Feeling slightly anxious, Javier said, “My wedding is only a few days away, so it wouldn’t make a difference if you told me now or later, would it?”

Zephiel seemed very dignified and had a serious expression on his face as he said, “It would.”

Zephiel refused to explain the reason even when Javier asked him about it.

After failing to get an answer out of him after a few attempts, Javier angrily got up and said

    Javier lay in bed when he returned home. He kept on rolling around, unable to fall asleep. However, it was not because he was thinking about Marjorie’s body. Instead, he was thinking about his parents and the old fox’s information. On top of that, he was slightly worried that he might run into Angelina very soon. Angelina was the woman the old fox had wanted to set Javier up with, but he had refused. He did not despise Angelina per se. He just disliked the idea of having his marriage controlled by others, which was why he had chosen to leave home. Meanwhile, his actions in the past had probably caused a huge problem in Angelina’s life. There were rumors being spread that Javier did not like Angelina, thought that she was not worthy of the Kerseys, and so on. Thus, Javier still felt very guilty about Angelina and did not know how to face those feelings. Someone silently opened Javier’s door as he was rolling around in bed…Quietly, Javier reached under his pillow and gr

    It was Angelina. The person who came was Angelina.Javier’s biggest worry last night had been meeting her, only for this worry to come true this morning.Angelina was the heiress of Thalarcsus. She was 27 years old, the same age as Jade, but she was much more successful than the latter, as she was already growing into the person who called the shots in her family.Even though she had male siblings and cousins, none of them was a worthy rival. The firearms business, specifically, lay tightly in her grasp. Like people said, anyone who controlled the firearms would be the one calling the shots. This was especially true when it came to Angelina.Ciara was a little scared of this woman. When she had been younger and less sensible, she had once provoked Angelina and been taught several lessons. Javier had, of course, gotten even with Angelina after that, but she had been attracted to him romantically instead.“Javier, I’m busy. Got to go! I won’t be meeting the guest with you!”Ciara

    Javier did not want to be with Angelina, who was almost psychotic. He equally did not want the two families to go into an unnecessary war, as the consequences of such a war would be devastating.A small consequence would be other families taking advantage of the situation and acquiring both families after they suffered through the damages of the war, while a more serious consequence could be wars among countries, which could cause people to suffer. All in all, the severity of the consequences would be higher than one could imagine if the two families were to actually fight.The sly old fox would never allow something like this to happen, but it was hard to say about Angelina, who actually already had power over the Thalarcsus. Who could expect a woman who had turned all the men in her family into eunuchs to stay calm?As Javier thought about it, he hoped that he could find a win-win solution, but he unfortunately failed to think of any.At the same time, a servant came over. “Mr. J

    Of course, Javier had not meant to trap Yoel. He had just wanted to use him to take Angelina away. Based on what he knew about Angelina, the woman did not like trash like Yoel, but he believed that she would be too embarrassed to stay in his room alone after Yoel ran into her.It was a surprise that Angelina had trapped him, purposely taking off all her clothes until all she was wearing was her underwear. Who could have known that she had already expected Yoel to be sent in by Javier but had still thought of enticing the latter anyway?The current outcome was already a done deal, though. Yoel Hachison had peeped on Angelina Thalarcsus, so the Hachisons would pay a devastating price.There was no doubt that Javier was happy to see this happen too, as he personally did not have a very positive impression of Yuzuia. Even though he had slept with women from Yuzuia, he did not like the nation. He just liked the process of sleeping with them.Yoel left with a pale face, lost in a trance.

    After Javier left, the entire Kersey Family found out about his argument with Zephiel. In fact, Zephiel even cut all the bonuses Javier should have received as the former’s direct grandson, turning Javier into a poor miser in the blink of an eye. Before he left, Javier ran into William, who had just arrived to visit his grandfather. William hurriedly went over to stop Javier when he saw how furious he was. He even asked Javier to apologize to Zephiel and admit his mistakes.However, Javier merely stormed off without answering William. Seeing him walking away into the distance, William found it difficult to conceal the sneer he had on his face. Meanwhile, Zephiel’s eyes remained cold as he watched. When William turned around, Zephiel revealed his furious expression.At that moment, he truly was furious because he had seen his jade pipe on the wooden table. ‘This one’s genuine…The one Javier broke last time was a fake…’Zephiel was so furious that he grunted as he looked a

    Javier and Ciel boarded an ordinary commercial flight after they met up. Ciel was sleeping very soundly on the plane, probably because she was tired after having fun for so many days. However, Javier did not get much sleep because there was a question bugging his mind the entire time… ‘Why didn’t the old fox send Mackenzie out to investigate if he already knew where Dad and my stepmother were long ago?‘Mackenzie clearly doesn’t know about this piece of information. Otherwise, he would have said that he couldn’t tell me about it rather than that he hadn't been able to find anything.’This made Javier find the entire thing very strange, and he felt as though there was something that not even the old fox could tell him. After pondering this for a while longer and still failing to make any sense of it, Javier gave up and decided to look into the matter instead. He sent Ciel home after they got off the plane and called Mackenzie, who said right after the call was connected, “Mr

    Even though Chessie had already done it with Javier before, she still could not hide the blush on her face and the sensation that made her feel as though she was afloat. However, she was still a veteran member of society at the end of the day, so her answer to such flirty questions would always be unique. “I got punched by someone right here like a sandbag. Just look at how swollen they are now…Would you like to help me soothe them?”Javier immediately held her up by the waist upon hearing this. It was not until Chessie began to struggle continuously that Javier finally released her. After tidying up her slightly messy clothes, Chessie changed the topic and said, “Let’s go get something to eat. I’ve already made arrangements for you.”“Sure, you’re paying anyway.”Javier wrapped his hand around Chessie’s arm, making himself seem like the lady, while Chessie was the man causing the woman to laugh coquettishly. “Sure, I’ll take you out for something to eat. But you’re going to

    Fortunately, Chessie managed to beg for mercy in time before Javier went on to have another bout of love with her. As for the paperwork for the land that Javier was supposed to buy, Chad had a friend who was in the process of taking care of everything in the meantime. There were three days left before the bidding for the land would begin. Therefore, since Javier did not have anything better to do, he chose to accompany Chessie for those three days. Out of Jade, Chessie, and Ciel, Javier felt sorry for Chessie the most. This was because Chessie was a very strong woman who would not ask for anything. Not only did she not want money or power, but she did not even want men protecting her. She was so stubbornly strong that she did not want to be protected by men even if she faced a huge crisis. However, the more she behaved this way, the sorrier Javier felt for her and the more he wanted to make it up to her. Thus, Javier had been by Chessie’s side the entire time with the sol

    As Bernadetta launched a barrage of kicks against the restaurant door, Mrs. Greene summoned 120% of her strength, holding the fort. The older woman had made a living terrorizing others with absurd accusations and downright unreasonable demands, but this time, she had met her match. Bernadetta James put the “man” in the word “woman”—in that she resorted to violence as soon as things escalated. In the end, it took both Mrs. Greene’s apology and a deal to provide Javier and Bernadetta with three days’ meals, all free of charge, to make the young woman stop. Then—“because I actually have a weakness against people sincerely appealing to my better angels,” according to Bernadetta—she amended the peace offer, changing the three days’ free meals to…a week’s worth. Back in the inn, Javier expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Bernadetta for rescuing him. “I can’t thank you enough for standing by my side when I needed it the most, Bern. But I can thank you a bit more if you refrain from using t

    Mrs. Greene opened her flap and unlocked the floodgate, the spit during her tirade so profusive that she could water an old lady’s lawn. “It’s him, officers! It’s all him! He did this to his own camera just to remove himself as a suspect, but we know better than that! He’s the guy who stole my goddamn lingerie!”She turned and trained her finger on Javier. “You vile, disgusting, degenerate piece of sh*t! Ptooey!”‘Back at you! I'd rather spend the night with my left hand than with you!’ By this point in the morning, Bernadetta had arrived at work. Her heels clicked onto the floor as she sauntered toward the commotion. As soon as she heard what had transpired, she laughed, looking clearly amused. She trained her perfectly manicured finger on Javier and piled on. “Oh, it was him. I can testify to that! He stole Mrs. Greene’s bra because he is…the Lingerie Phantom Thief! By day, he is Javier Kersey. At night, he is Jo Ker, the Bra Stealer!” Javier threw his arms up in exasperation

    Javier shook his head. By the time his vision was back to normal, the dog was gone. It had escaped! “What kind of hell spawned this little sh*t?!” Javier wondered to himself aloud. “Was this really an effect of the world changing? Is this an example of mutation because of the Storm? Or is there something else at play?”Baffled and unsure what to think, Javier returned to the dorm and told the residents to open the door. Inside, he found Florence huddling the frightened kids closely. She was white from fear, and yet in the presence of vulnerable kids, she had assumed the role of the protector without a second thought. “Hush, it’s alright! It was fake. Someone pulled a terrible prank and put on this white sheet and…” Javier made up a fib to explain the haunting away exactly because the truth could land him in a mental institution. No one would believe him—and for good reason too!Javier drove Florence back to the Yuzuian restaurant, where the latter’s electric scooter was. While

    A resentful wail—interspersed only by sobs that sounded more like someone was being strangled—was echoing in the middle of the night while Javier and Florence could not see even a single soul out there? Animated by the power of “hell, naw!”, Florence dove into Javier’s arms for protection. Her hands were clasped firmly on either side of her head, hoping to block out the ghastly demand in her ears. Her eyes were squeezed so tightly shut that even a crowbar could not pry them open.Javier himself was just as terrified. He would have felt better if he could see the source of the voice rather than just hear a woman sobbing about getting her head back. At least he would know what he was up against! But just hearing it without any visuals at all?! Nooooope!Then, Florence hugged him in a “help-me!” sort of way. She was soft and supple—damn, that sexy figure in combination with her silky-smooth skin sure was welcoming. She was warm, and damn did she smell good! Nothing competed with fea

    The dog barked in protest as it pointed its paw at Javier with the intensity of a mob before executing a monarch. The flames in its eyes were so bright that they could incinerate Javier into ashes in milliseconds. In the end, though, all that protest was for naught. Constance tied it up in the parking garage, while Javier watched in glee. Ah, sweet, sweet revenge! The stupid dog had thought it could set him up, had it? That would teach it!The look the Pomeranian shot him almost felt like a threat: ‘Just you f*cking wait, hooman!’‘Wait for what? How much can a stupid b*tch like you do to me?’ Javier scoffed in his mind. Now that the four-legged pest was gone, Javier turned back to Constance and talked about the new orphanage. As it turned out, despite the old woman’s sentiments for the building she had founded, she was a lot less obstinate and unreasonable as she might appear. “I mean, I don’t object to it completely. I know the new place is gonna be better, but…” She faltered a

    Florence called half an hour later to tell him where they’d be having dinner. After leaving the inn in Bernadetta’s care, he hurried to the venue. Florence had picked a newly-opened Yuzuian restaurant. Javier had never liked Yuzuian restaurants, but since Florence had invited him, courtesy stopped him from asking the woman to change their meeting venue. He found Florence quickly enough and sat across from her. They placed their orders, and Javier began his performance: He started sighing and doing his best to look forlorn. It intrigued Florence enough to ask what was wrong, and Javier told her about his unfortunate beef with Constance that day.“It’s so unfair, man! Why would I bully a dog for no reason?” he moaned. “I’m sure Aunt Constance misunderstood. You’re a knightly, heroic, kind man! How could someone like you possibly get off on hurting a dog? I’m sure Aunt Constance was just too worried about the dog’s welfare to think things through. She didn’t mean it. I can vouch for

    Herschel was dressed quite sharply today. It was the full ensemble—black leather shoes, black slacks, a white collar, and last but not least, the good old oil-slicked hair. The typical look of a high-ranking office worker, just as Javier had requested. Ordering him to get in his car, Javier asked, “You brought all the stuff I told you to?”“Yo, I would never forget the stuff my boss told me to bring. I’ve got all the preparations down pat. You can check ‘em if you don’t trust me,” Herschel replied. He fished an ID and some documents out of his leather bag. “See? All the documentation a journalist in the most important room of a news agency would have.”After a round-check and some instructions, Javier sent Herschel on his way to complete his mission. The man was strangely reluctant, though. “Boss, you told me you decided to work in that inn, right? Does that mean, you know, that you’re gonna call me ‘boss’ while you’re there?”Javier had almost forgotten he had mentioned this. It

    Javier’s suspicion turned to Constance Hellman’s white Pomeranian. He turned to the director’s office and met the dog’s eyes. With its paws on the windowsill, it hoisted itself up to look out of the window. Seeing the dog cracking a lopsided grin and baring its fangs—beaming as smugly as a teacher’s pet who had managed to subdue everyone through the power of being the boss’s favorite—made it look both amusing and chilling. It would have been had the dog not caught Javier’s gaze, suddenly dropped the smile, and put on a face that seemed to be saying, ‘I’m just your average dog! Nothing to see here!’And then it feigned—yes, feigned—a yawn as its one last measure to cover up the fact that it had been laughing smugly to itself. ‘What. The. Actual. F*ck?!’ Javier thundered in his mind. ‘B*tch’s a natural actress! What’s it doing here instead of being interviewed on a talk show after becoming viral on TikTok?’In combination with Russell’s report, the incident inside the director’s of

    As Javier was befuddled, Constance rushed in from outside and picked up the white Pomeranian gingerly to carefully check its injured leg.“Oh, baby, what’s the matter? Did you hurt your leg?”The white Pomeranian whined in pain and began twitching upon hearing Constance’s concerned question. This upset Constance so much that she admonished him sternly. “Mr. Kersey, I thought that you were a loving person, but I can’t help doubting your motive now.“I’m skeptical about you taking good care of the kids here when you’d even hit a cute dog!”Javier felt extremely offended. When had he hit the dog? He hurriedly explained, “Madam Hellman, I didn’t do anything!”Constance asked angrily, “You didn’t do anything? Why would it suddenly limp now and whine so pathetically? Why did it hurry over to me? Give me a reasonable explanation!”Javier was in distress as well. “How would I know? It was fine when I was carrying it just now, but it wanted to get down on the floor, so I carefully placed
