Sofia’s cheeks turned hot pink as soon as she finished. She realized her wording could cause quite a misunderstanding…“I mean, I’m literally scared. Literally!” she hurriedly added. “That’s what I meant when I asked you not to leave me tonight. I don’t, um, I don’t mean that as, uh, an invitation to sex.”The more she tried to clarify herself, the more flushed her cheeks were. She was inching closer and closer to outright inability to explain herself.Luckily for her, Javier understood. “You’re worried that Lou’s gonna come back and continue his vile, vindictive assault, aren’t you? So you want me to stay and keep an eye out for you. Doesn’t mean it as a ploy to seduce me for sex. That what you’re saying?”Sofia bobbed her head, her blushing cheeks rattling with the movement. “R-Right! That’s exactly what I was thinking!”Javier hummed. As he considered the young woman retreating away from his arms, he wondered aloud, “And you’re not worried that I might coerce you into it while
Javier himself had no idea he was going to spring so far to the top that he would land on his cushy position. On the surface, the fact that a newbie had catapulted to such a role defied any logic and reason, but there were many factors that made it understandable.For starters, Tucker needed a loyalist. There was also the fact that Reivaj Group had spent an obscene amount of money in an attempt to poach Javier. Then, there was Javier’s exceptional abilities and loyalty, his cordial relationship with the sales managers, and much more. All these factors seemed to justify why he should be where he was.It did not mean it was any less of a surprise to the rest of the company. Even Sofia was shocked. Now that she was in Javier’s office, she was staring at him in confusion. “I remember walking into the sales department and telling you people that if any one of you ever became my boss, I’d congratulate them for real. But becoming my boss so soon? That’s just too fast, isn’t it?”She found
Tucker turned to look at Javier expectantly. “You’re a smart man, aren’t you? I’m sure you already get what I mean.”Javier nodded. Of course he did. Tucker was telling him to muster his courage and take up the challenge, make a grand work of it to the best of his abilities, and earn praise through it. He was reassuring Javier not to be scared of the 60% mark their higher-ups wanted.Tucker was right about one thing. Javier was not scared at all. In fact, he was quite pumped up for the task. Getting the sales figure to 60% within three months in the Northgard region? It might be a big boss fight to everyone else, but to Javier? Piece of cake!“Don’t you worry, Mr. Goldwater. I’ll come up with something.”With information supplied by the elite Kersey family, Javier had more than enough reasons to believe he could do what he was supposed to do.Tucker admired the young man’s boldness and was vocal about it. Still, to himself, he was more than ready to lean on his Plan B. After Javie
Javier had had s*x with plenty of women, but a drunk one? There was no precedent. He had always believed that the best climaxes were reached only when people had s*x in sobriety.Of course, that was not his argument against scr*wing Sofia today. For her, the biggest objection was her state. She was a drunken, depressed mess, and he would not want to take advantage, gratify himself, and then leave her back where she was. Sofia might regret this once she was sober.More importantly than how regretful the woman would feel, though, was the woman’s opinion on relationships. She was faithful to a fault. Having s*x with her would likely motivate her to pursue marriage with him, and that was not what Javier would want.In this case, it would be better to wait until Sofia woke up and was sober.Finding consolation to be a waste of time, Javier karate-chopped Sofia on the neck. She blacked out, and he carried her to her bedroom, laid her down, and returned to the living room. He even had the
No trouble ensued. Sofia meant what she said and did the deeds to prove it. Tonight, Javier was hers.And she was his. He made her near-hysterical through sublime crescendos and a touch of paradise.Sofia lay on his chest, nestled between his arms. “Why did you reveal your secret to me? Aren’t you worried that I might wave that knowledge as a threat or latch myself onto you like a shadow so I can get your money?”Javier smiled. “Does it matter if you threaten me or cling to me when both are for the sake of my money? If you really need some cash, though, just say it. I’ll give you as much as you need.”“Are you like, super-rich?”“Oh, girl.” He nodded. “I’m f*cking rich.”“But I don’t want it!” she exclaimed.Javier agreed. Sofia was not the type to care for money—he could tell that from the way she interacted with him this whole time. Besides, if she ever did need some cash, he would gladly give it to her. Money had to be the tritest, most worthless thing in life to him. He saw
All that rich man’s posturing had made Judd a very intrigued man. He could not wait to see what happened when the bill arrived.One thing was for sure, though. Their luxury lunch was worth every dime that made up 12 whopping thousand dollars. Javier, of course, thought it was “fine”, while Sofia took full advantage and enjoyed the hell out of it. She was not worried about Javier’s wallet at all. Why would she worry about the chairman of Reivaj Group? That guy was a billionaire!A mask of mediocrity might have obscured his face, but his wealth was definitely not! No reason for her to hold back, really!Sofia indulged. When she was finished, she dabbed the edge of her lips with a piece of tissue, satisfied.Judd finished his meal at the same time. As he boorishly grazed his teeth with a toothpick, he remarked loudly, “Well, I guess the meal’s done! Time for the bill…I personally can’t wait to see you magic your way out of the bed you made, Kersey. Fair disclaimer. I am not lending yo
When Javier’s Passat had steered into the shop’s parking lot, none of the salesgirls had moved. They had collectively decided that the owner must have decided to window-shop, so no one acknowledged his arrival.When Javier announced his intention, the salespeople were shocked. This fellow was no window-shopper—he was there to buy!One of them was bold enough to voice their doubt. “Are you…talking about this car, sir?”Javier smirked. “Yes? What other car could it possibly be? Also, can you get on to it already? My time is limited.”Judd’s voice suddenly rang from behind. “Aww, what’s the hurry, Kersey? Do you even know what car you’ve just pointed at, you cute little dork? That’s a Rolls-Royce Cullinan. The most expensive SUV there is—899k or more!”Was that the level of expensive SUVs Judd recognized? Well, he just exposed how much of a broke *ss mother*cker he really was right there! There were plenty of even more expensive SUVs all around the world. The only reason Javier even
750,000 dollars was a very tempting offer, and the saleswoman had already proven a moment ago that Javier was indeed a man of his word. ‘B-But…There are so many people around here! I’m the assistant general manager, so I can’t be seen doing such a thing!’Sofia walked out while he was still hesitating, and Javier brought her over to the VIP area to take a seat. Javier could not even be bothered to say a thing as he left, so it was obvious that he had already taken away Judd’s right to do anything, leaving the latter feeling nothing but regret. ‘I should’ve just done it! F*ck being embarrassed! There’s nothing to be afraid of when nobody here knows who I am!’In the end, Judd had lost his chance to obtain the 750,000 dollars that had been dangling right in front of his face, which was why he was feeling so much regret that he wanted to smack himself silly.Just as Javier was about to leave to fetch the car, Judd rushed up to him.However, he did not have a scorn-filled express
