The day Cillian passed away, he had rushed back home through the night after he was done filming. Then, after he said a few words to his son and his daughter-in-law, he claimed that he was very tired and wanted to rest for a while. However, this was a nap Cillian was never going to wake up from. Even though there was a team of medical professionals with him, they still could not resuscitate the old man and pull him from the grasp of the Grim Reaper himself. Cillian’s son had already been prepared for this long ago. Before Cillian’s passing, the doctor had already advised his son that the old man might leave at any given moment… Cillian’s wake was held on the third day of his passing, and Javier, Lloyd, Mr. Gander, and the rest rushed over. There were many movie celebrities on the scene, but most of them were older, veteran actors and actresses who were extremely saddened by the old man’s passing.Flowers filled the venue of his wake, sent by the country’s filmography organiz
On the other hand, when Javier told Ciara that he was so busy with work that he could not celebrate Christmas back home…he did not mean it. In truth, he had never celebrated it before. Meanwhile, Jade could understand that Javier had never thought of celebrating something like this. All she asked was that she stay by Javier’s side. Thus, the two of them had never celebrated Christmas before. However, they stayed at the office until very late that day, so they ended up getting something to eat on their way back.As they ate, Sam Langdon gave Javier a phone call. “Where are you, Mr. Kersey? There’s something I would like to ask your help with.”‘It’s so late at night. What sort of help could he possibly need?’Without reading too much into the matter, Javier gave Sam his address. After hanging up the phone, he carried on eating his dinner with Jade.However, while the two of them were eating and chatting merrily, a young man in his 20s walked over and brought a chair with him.
Channing was truly dumbfounded at this point. He had seen people gambling with money before, but he had never seen such a gamble! He had just been offered to play the simplest game, one match that would decide whether he’d take away around 600,000 dollars or lose 150,000 dollars. This was a very harsh game, but a very exciting one at the same time!Channing’s friends had now been attracted to Javier’s table, their eyes instantly filled with envy when they saw the stacks of cash inside the luggage. If it wasn’t for the fact that they were bound by the law, Channing’s friends would most likely have robbed Sam on the spot. Unable to contain their envy, some of Channing’s friends began egging him on. “Go on, play with him! It’s 600,000 versus 150,000 dollars. It’s a small risk for a huge return!”The others gradually began to coerce Channing into gambling with Javier with his 150,000 dollars as well. In fact, Channing wanted to gamble for the stacks of cash in front of him out
Neither Javier nor Jade had taken Channing’s fiasco seriously.In fact, a matter so trivial was not even worth becoming a conversation topic.Instead, what they were talking about was on a much higher level. During their journey back, they kept having a heated debate about which position was better. In the end, neither of them wanted to give in to the other’s suggestion, so they decided to try it out when they returned home to see which one was better. While their conversation had reached a certain climax, Javier suddenly noticed a mother and her son walking on the street, looking very dejected. Although Javier had been driving fast and he merely took a single glance, he immediately stopped the car and reversed when he confirmed that there were no cars behind him. Finding Javier’s sudden reverse move strange, she asked, “What’s the matter?”Javier replied, “I think I just saw someone I know.”Indeed, what he had thought soon came to pass. When Javier reversed all the way to t
Javier had no intention of killing the pitiful Marjorie and Sigmund. After all, the two of them were idiots and puppets that blindly followed orders. They had not committed a big sin. Not to mention that the old fox hadn't made the call to kill them, so Javier wasn't in a position to do so either. It was obvious from the old fox's decision that the two of them didn't deserve to die, so of course, Javier wouldn't kill them unnecessarily. However, he couldn't leave just like that. Javier looked at the young Sigmund and raised his hand. Sigmund thought that Javier was going to whack his head again and quickly closed his eyes. However, a moment later, he felt a gentle caress on his head. Nothing else. "Since you used to follow me around and call me brother when you were young, I'll take care of you two from now on." Javier's words made Marjorie feel overjoyed. Tears of joy flowed down her cheeks. Marjorie knew Javier well. She knew he was a man of his word and would never s
Thus, Javier sent Marjorie and Sigmund to Xerxes Village. Xerxes Village was no longer a poor and dilapidated place. After all, Javier had invested so much money into the place. Now, all the roads leading out of the mountain had been opened up. Additionally, due to the incident with Edelgard Weiss, many people had started paying attention to this place. The city council was also paying special attention to it. With so much care and attention given to the place, it was safe to say that Xerxes Village had undergone a tremendous change. At the very least, a car could drive straight to the innermost part of the village unscathed. After entrusting Marjorie and Sigmund to the village chief, Thomas Bloom, Javier stayed there for half a day to check out the recent changes in the village. The situation in the village had gotten much better. Although it had only been a few months, the changes in the village were especially apparent. Other than the successful renovation of the dangerous h
A month had passed swiftly since Javier had last spent time with Dana. It was nearly the end of the year now, so it was busy everywhere. People were either preparing for the holidays or spring cleaning, but work continued for office workers. After all, there were still a few days left until the holidays.As an office worker, Javier began getting busy too despite being a boss. He did not need to prepare things for the holidays but he needed to prepare the annual bonus for his company employees.After leaving the office, he drove to the bank. The floor manager, who was dressed decently, welcomed him with a smile.“Hello, sir. What kind of service do you need?”“I’d like a haircut.” Javier flirted upon seeing that the floor manager was quite pretty.The floor manager, whose name was Sally Kearn, froze and asked awkwardly, “Sir, can you repeat yourself? I’m afraid I didn’t catch that.”Javier replied, “Didn’t you ask what I need? I need a haircut. It’s going to be a new year, so I ne
”Robbery! I’m robbing the bank!”As Roy entered the bank, he had a cigarette between his lips and he behaved boisterously in the bank lobby, as though he was in a club.Everyone in the bank was watching him while an old lady who was collecting her pension assumed what he had said to be real and fled in fear.As the floor manager, Sally naturally could not allow this to happen and hurried forward to greet him. “Sir, please watch your words. What you said just now could disrupt the regular peace and order of this bank.”Roy pushed the sunglasses he was wearing down and pushed his face closer to peer up at Sally.“Pretty miss, stop it. I don’t have a gun or a knife. Would you just believe what I say? Okay, I’m stealing your bra then. Take it off for me and let me smell it, okay?”The man was both unreasonable and crude, which both humiliated and exasperated Sally.“Sir, please watch your words. I’ll have to call the police if you continue acting like this. We have surveillance came
