After spending a wild night together, Javier and Jade slept until the next afternoon. They had booked their hotel room for three days, so it was a little after 1 p.m. by the time the couple left the hotel. They then hailed a taxi and filled their bellies with some local delicacies before embarking on their journey to select their new house. Over the next two days, they kept going from house to house. Jade was already feeling pretty satisfied with what they had found, but Javier just couldn’t bring himself to like any of the houses.“Come on, what sort of house are you looking for exactly? We could just decide on one that’s almost to our tastes. Plus, I keep getting the feeling that the houses you find have a higher and higher price point.” Jade softly complained. She felt that she would be content with just an ordinary house.However, Javier was not having any of that. “Of course it can’t be ordinary! It’s going to be the house my wife’s going to live in, so there's no way I’m
Initially, the old woman was pretty furious when she saw the saleswoman smiling once more. She almost wanted to rip her mouth open. However, she understood why the saleswoman was smiling when she found out that the deposit fee was 45,000 dollars.They had thought they would be able to reserve a house worth millions of dollars with just a few hundred dollars worth of a deposit? What a joke!However, the old woman was not going to allow that amount to cause her to humiliate herself. She shot a fierce glare at her husband before she said, “What are you smiling at? It’s 45,000 dollars, isn’t it? We’ve got the money to pay! My husband meant to say that that amount feels like 450 dollars to us!”The old man hurriedly agreed. “Exactly!”The saleswoman was stunned, not realizing that the old couple was actually rather wealthy. However, she did not want to cause any future problems for herself due to some misunderstanding, so she secretly turned on her cell phone’s video recording fun
The old man no longer dared to utter another word after Javier’s violent threat. However, the old woman suddenly seemed to change her tactics and sat down on the floor, flailing her hands about like a madwoman. “You lot are so unfair! You real-estate agents are taking his side to bully us! You refuse to let us pay the deposit fee and buy the house. Plus, you’re even ganging up with him to beat us up! Call the reporters! Have them expose their cruel deeds!!!”According to a saying on the internet, the elderly did not become villains, the villains just grew old. Jade had never seemed to understand this saying in the past, but after witnessing what the old couple was capable of, she fully understood it now.‘Both of them are just full of nonsense and they’re doing anything they want, including behaving like madmen just because they’re old. They’re such shameless people!‘I just don’t get it… How do they manage to be so shameless despite being so old?’Seeing that her exquisitely
Money made the world go around, as they said, and it made it go fast.For example, every document and required paper had been handled by the sales representative two days later posthaste. Javier paid a king’s ransom for the housing property tax, but frankly, he hardly felt the loss when it came to his overall wealth.By late afternoon, Javier had scouted Clouston’s most expensive home design company based on its professional expertise. Just the thought that they were being commissioned to design and renovate three luxury villas made the company pay rapt attention. It dispatched two teams to follow Javier back to his house. They would hash out some designs and let Javier choose the one he liked the most.Jade led the teams into the villas, and the brainstorming began. Javier himself took a seat at the entrance step and lit a cigarette. It mattered very little how the villas would look as long as Jade was pleased.It was then that trouble paid him a visit.Oh, it was not Jade, who w
Javier actually remembered Victoria Loesch a little. She was one of the young rising stars Chad had contacted back when he had been facing Lloyd Young. He had not exposed her darkest secrets to hurt Lloyd because he had been busy promoting the movie “Ackerman.”He would never have exposed her, to be honest, had it not been for the…special circumstances they had found themselves in. She might not know this, but Victoria had actually been working under Javier this whole time.That was the problem, was it not? She had been disrespecting her boss’s boss, right down to declaring she would crush him with her wealth alone. That was just inappropriate!He produced his phone and started calling Lloyd while Victoria watched, sneering at him. “What now? Gonna call some tabloid to make up ‘news’? Please, you know they’ll argue for me rather than against me, right? Hell, my fans are an army! Go and stir up a riot if you aren’t scared of being canceled to hell and back!”“Gee, you’re Miss Badass
It was at that moment that Victoria knew how she had f*cked up.She was more than certain that the call Javier had made to Lloyd had been legitimate. No one else other than the boss of her company could have the ability to cancel her in such a short amount of time. Nor could anyone else have the power to take away all of her resources and opportunities as a star, including any advertising work and talk show appearances.As he flicked the ashes off his cigarette again, Javier’s toothy grin remained the same. “Yep, it was me. What, you wanna punch me in the face for it?”Victoria dared not, even if she wanted to. Three months of inactivity could chill one’s momentum to stardom enough when it came to an actress of her type. Even if she could, theoretically, rise out of her hiatus and back into new heights, it was still going to be an uphill battle. What more could she expect after being canceled altogether?She might very well have no way of continuing her career.How could she not p
Javier went inside his villa and accompanied Jade as she discussed home décor with the team of designers they employed. He was already starting to forget about the event that had happened just minutes ago. It was so trivial to him that he would not waste any effort by caring.It was not trivial to Victoria, though. After getting back up to her feet with the aid of her own rage, she snarled at her parents for a while before putting her mask and shades back on and leaving. As she passed by Boulder Bear, the ire of his defeat rushed back to her, and she shot a mean, harsh swing at Boulder Bear’s crotch.Had this overpriced useless piece of sh*t beaten that *sshat into a sniveling pulp from the get-go, she would have never needed to expose her identity and get canceled!She turned on her heels and stormed off, not even pausing to look back at her brutalized mother and her bewildered father. The old woman cupped her cheek, choking back tears as she asked in a quivering voice, “What…happe
Someone had shot Chessie, and no one could tell who it could have been.All the text stated after that was where they were right at that moment.Javier wasted no time reporting the address to Herschel. The car took a sharp turn away from the airport and into the freeway, the flight aborted and abandoned.Faye would never have texted him if it were not that big of a problem, and reality made Javier suspicious. When he called her on her personal number, no one picked it up.That meant that Chessie’s condition was severe enough that it prevented her from picking up her phone.The revelation moved the deepest part of his lividity. What kind of special foolhardy motherf*cker would dare touch one of his women?!His rage even boiled over to Faye. What the f*ck was she doing if the woman she had been sent to protect had ended up getting harmed anyway? And harmed this severely at that! How useless was she?!Fighting back the ugly flame in his chest, he called Trevor and told him there wa
