“I’m really sorry about that, Mei.”

This was the second time Javier had apologized to her that night over an interval of more than an hour.

Mei’s face was still flushed, but not out of embarrassment. More like because she seemed drunk.

She tidied up her messy clothes and stood up, although it seemed like a chore.

After having Javier apologize to her for the second time, Mei said in an embarrassed voice, “It’s alright. It’s part of my duty.”

Javier instantly felt slightly stunned upon hearing her reply.

‘It’s part of her job to be forcefully taken? Are all Yuzuian women so mild-tempered?’

However, Javier then understood that this was not the duty of a normal woman, just Mei’s.

This was because, in Mei’s eyes, Javier was helping her seek vengeance, so this was something she should offer in return.

With that theory in mind, Mei’s “it’s part of my duty” suddenly made sense.

Thus, Javier was too embarrassed to dwell on this topic and changed the subject, asking about Sara’s father

    After sending out men to get Mei’s information, Renly took a look at the photo of her and thought that she was very beautiful. ‘Looks like this might be the problem. According to my investigation, Javier is a very lustful person who has been involved in relationships with multiple women, each one of them very beautiful. Judging by Mei’s looks, she’s definitely the type of woman Javier might have set his sights on.‘However, there’s another issue…Mei’s half-Chinean. ‘Judging by how biased Javier is when it comes to Chineans, he might be thinking of helping Mei because of her half-Chinean nationality. After all, Chineans love helping other Chineans who seem to be down in the dumps. ‘Even if there isn’t anything for them to gain in return, they will still do such a thing out of love and kindness.’Renly, who was a man who only thought about his own profit no matter what he did, despised Javier for many things he had done in the past.Thus, because of these factors, Renly thought

    “What a coincidence that we ran into each other here, Mr. Kersey.”Yoel chuckled as he approached with a smiley face. He was no longer the same Yoel Hachison he used to be. Instead, he was now someone who had Renly supporting him from behind. In fact, he was the man who had a chance of becoming the next family leader. Thus, Yoel no longer had to seem as fearful as he was in the past. He even dropped the respectful tone he would’ve used to speak to Javier before. Javier squinted his eyes into tiny smiles and looked at Yoel. “What a coincidence indeed. Do you like coming to Disneyland because you’re as childlike as Sara?”Yoel had obviously gone there to meet Javier, yet Javier ended up criticizing him for being a child, which left a sour taste in Yoel’s mouth. However, as unhappy as he was, he still had to endure this, as he was still weaker than Javier at the end of the day. “Surely you jest, Mr. Kersey. I’m only here to meet Mei and Sara. I didn’t expect to see you here as wel

    Yoel was extremely p*ssed! ‘How dare this little b*tch spit on me?! This is an even greater humiliation than being slapped!’“You little sh*t!”Yoel yelled angrily and raised his palm, ready to hit Sara. The little girl was so frightened that she hurriedly grabbed Javier’s neck.But before Yoel could even land a hand on her, Javier directly sent him rolling over on the ground with a single kick.“How dare you raise your hand in front of me? Who the hell do you think you are?”Frustrated, Yoel got up with a hand against his abdomen.A second later, Javier said angrily, “On your knees! If you dare get up, I’ll have you killed right here right now! Go on, try me!”Javier’s temperament exploded like a tiger roaring in the forest, seeming very threatening. Not even Yoel’s subordinates, who were not too far away, dared to take another step closer. After all, how could they possibly dare to approach when not even their boss could utter a single word? They did not have a death wish.

    When Sara woke up the next morning, she went around the house to look for Javier, but he was not there. After remembering that she had suggested that he stay in her mother’s bedroom, Sara headed upstairs and pushed Mei’s bedroom door open.Mei was lying on her bed, sleeping especially soundly and happily.There were piles of tissue paper crumpled up by the bed. Sara had no idea why her mother, who supposedly loved for things to be clean and tidy, would simply litter the floor with used tissues. She also found it very strange when she realized that her mother was smiling sweetly in her sleep. But Sara did not care about any of these things anymore. She shook her mother violently before Mei, who had only fallen asleep not too long ago, woke up. “Mommy, where’s Uncle Javier? I want to see him.”Usually, a person would be in a very bad mood when they were woken up right after they fell asleep. However, as a mother, there was of course no way she would react in such a way to her da

    When Javier met Angelina, she was discussing business with a major client from the Middle East. The business meeting seemed to be progressing very smoothly. They had already signed the contracts and were shaking each other’s hands with smiles on their faces. After seeing this major client out, Angelina sat back on her chair and closed the document. Just as she was about to hand the document to her assistant, she raised her head and saw a familiar figure. One that belonged to a man she had been missing day and night. Angelina instantly stood up, her face filled with glee and excitement.“My king! What are you doing here? This is the best news I’ve received today! I love you so much!”Without feeling bothered by the fact that her subordinates were around, Angelina directly leaped into Javier’s arms, kissing him ferociously with her full red lips. Undoubtedly, because of her race, Angelina had an extremely fair complexion that exuded her country’s unique beauty. Whenever Jav

    Herschel knew exactly what his job was. He was not disillusioned by any means. What’s more, he was more than stoked to say yes.With Herschel and Gusman taking the lead, a troop of a hundred suited-up soldiers left with their own respective method.Javier took his eyes off Herschel, Gusman, and the others and observed Angelina from the door, his eyes cast far into the horizon, where the troop vanished. He wondered if she could smell something fishy.Quickly, he asked, “Anything else on today’s agenda?”Angelina had been wondering if she should tell Gusman to hold onto any reservations and not obey every single one of Herschel’s orders, but Javier’s question broke her out of her reverie. “No, there’s nothing else,” she replied intuitively. “Nothing planned for today or tomorrow. What’s the matter?”Javier’s lips formed an implicative smirk. He leaned forward, pushing Angelina against the wall before breathing out. “Well, I personally have an agenda, and I would like to have you par

    With her troops at the ready, Mei led a march toward the Hachison estate.Gusman made his confusion known on the way. “Aren’t these people the ones who should be training you on the battlefield?” he asked, sounding bewildered.Herschel was aware of Gusman’s inability to understand Yuzuean, so he took this chance to make things up on the fly. “We, er, set our base here to avoid being discovered. I mean, have you ever suspected us of setting up our base here before?”Gusman reeled in realization. Well, that made a lot of sense…except for the nagging fact that these people did not seem to care about Herschel at all. Something was fishy about it, and he could not shake the feeling off.He tried to call Angelina for confirmation, but no one answered him.His mind drifted to the relationship between Herschel and Javier, and then Javier and Angelina. His mind relaxed a little—he was his mistress’s beau and the second grandson of the Kersey Family! There was little reason for him to be wa

    The Hachison estate incident quickly gained the attention of the local law enforcement. A skirmish involving guns and bazookas was about as serious as a small-scale war. When one pinned that conflict on a region as sensitive as the Hachisons’ residency, it was no wonder the local police immediately moved out.Local forces stopped dead at the entrance to the estate almost as soon as they arrived. Shock prevented them from moving any closer.The enemy troops, as they quickly realized, were armed to the teeth with weapons even more advanced than the equipment the Yuzuean army possessed. They also quickly realized that many of those now standing opposite them within the estate were important elders and higher-ups of the Hachison Family.The leader of the group? The daughter of the Hachison Family’s main branch and former family leader, Mei.It came as a world-shattering shock even to the over fifty-year-old captain of the force, who was just about to retire in a few days.

    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
