Even though Zoey was a very sexy and beautiful woman, Javier could not bring himself to do it with a drugged person.Although he was definitely no gentleman himself, he still had the decency to not take advantage of someone else.So, in order to ensure that he would not be tempted, he whacked Zoey once again and made her lay down on the bed unconscious.Javier headed to the bathroom and took a cold shower before he was able to wash away his fatigue and urges. After a while, he headed to the living room, opened a can of cold beer, and took a few sips.‘Finally, I managed to cool down entirely and not feel the urge to do it with Zoey.’That night, Javier slept on the couch instead of returning to his bedroom. It was not until the next morning that he woke up after being interrupted by some rustling noise.Opening his eyes, Javier saw Zoey tip-toeing toward the exit with a red face.He then said, “Why are you running away? Are you afraid that I might have my way with you?”The
In truth, Javier had already made arrangements to retaliate against Kaiden’s petty little tricks long ago.Javier was a man who would never get involved in a fight he was not sure of winning. Therefore, since he had the guts to go up against Kaiden so openly, it must be because he was confident that he would emerge victorious.Hence, after he was taken into the police cruiser that morning, the leading inspector received a phone call from the higher-ups.The conversation was very short and simple…They were to release Javier regardless of what he had done. The leading inspector thought that the entire situation was extremely ridiculous. “Are we still living in a lawful country?! Why is he being released just because we’ve been asked to release him?!”“Are you an idiot? Our superiors are the ones who personally called to get this done, so of course our country’s laws are still in place!”After the lecture, the person on the other end of the line said, “Also, have Kaiden arrested im
Javier was not going to show Phineas the slightest hint of respect.So what if he was the chairman of Maple Court? Javier himself was the CEO of Reivaj Group, so Phineas was definitely inferior in comparison to him.Besides, Javier mostly understood how Maple Court operated. There were only a few more matters he could learn from Robin, so there was not much point in him staying there anymore.Thus, why would he have to show respect to Phineas? After scorning him, Javier hung up the phone and then packed up his things before leaving with Robin.Initially, they had planned on returning to Robin’s house to celebrate after they were done with work for the day. But now, they did not need to wait any longer because they had both resigned.On the way there, Javier asked, “Robin, what are you going to do now that you resigned from your position so rashly?”Robin did not seem to be bothered in the slightest. “It doesn’t matter at all! I’m a competent person, so I’ll find a job anywhere.
Robin explained a lot of things to Zoey, but the latter was completely dumbfounded, still unable to believe what had just happened. It was not until she extended her hand to touch Javier’s face that she realized that the man before her was indeed a living, breathing person.“Oh my God, you really are Javier! Are you really the CEO of Reivaj Group as well? You’re really awesome!”After that shocked exclamation, Zoey asked, “Where’s your mask? Can I play with it, please?”Javier was rendered speechless. He had wholeheartedly thought Zoey would be even more interested in him now that she was aware of his identity, but she ended up only being interested in his mask.When he pointed at the pile of ash in the ashtray, Zoey looked very depressed. “Why did you burn it? I wanted to play with it!”“All you know is how to play. Javier’s only two years older than you, yet he’s already become the CEO of Reivaj Group!”Zoey stuck out her tongue and left after asking Javier to have some fruit
It would take more than a whim for Javier to bring Maple Court to its knees. The limitation had nothing to do with a lack of training or skills and everything to do with speed. If he were to strike, it would have to be like lightning.After leaving the Fayes, he contacted Mary Jane Gould.Maple Court’s stocks were on the market, so the key to demolishing it was right there. As a stock kingmaker, Mary Jane could part seas or sink ships if she so chose with ease—and it was only going to get easier with the Kerseys’ funding backing her up.By 10 in the morning, Phineas received some devastating news.“Mr. Maple? Someone bypassed the stock market regulations and launched a financial campaign against us!”Phineas did not care for these technicalities. All he cared about was how much he might be losing. “And how much blood are we losing? Hundreds of thousands? Millions?”“All of it, sir,” his deputy financial director answered with a gulp. “Our enemy has invested a billion dollars into
Getting punched in the face and then having the ladies get snatched up by the guy who had done it p*ssed Jim off a lot. He might not be an *ss-kicking bad*ss, but d*mn it, he had always been at least good at hyping himself up about being one. This son of a b*tch had sent his front teeth flying, and now Jim could not even toot his own trumpet.The next best thing he could do was run up to his boss, Craig “Buck” Buckley, and recount the entire sequence of events with as much incendiary embellishment as he could muster. He mentioned how much Javier had dissed him and how much he had laughed at him.The perceived insult proved too much for Buck, who fit the stereotype of a silent but violent thug leader. His spleen shot up to the roof, his anger dialing up to eleven. With one word, he commanded all of his followers to surround Javier.“Who the f*ck are you? Those are my babes you’re touching. You really are itching to die if you wanna pick a fight with us!”Javier squeezed his arms aro
There was no way Jim could have possibly stopped Javier. One punch was all it took to knock him out cold.All Buck cared about at that moment was running as fast as he could, but he could not possibly outrun Javier. He was practically outpaced in a moment and tackled down on the floor. A barrage of brutality later, Buck curled up in a fetal position and begged. “Oh God, have mercy, man! Stoooop! You’re a big, tough motherf*cker to these b*tches, okay? Isn’t that enough for you? Oww! God, I’m begging you, stop!”Javier continued to shower him with attacks while shouting down, “Weren’t you a big tough motherf*cker just moments ago? The hell happened to that bad*ss, huh?”As Javier continued to kick and beat him up, Buck covered his head with his arms, still curled in the fetal position. He felt very glum. Had he known how much of a gangster his opponent was, he would have never thrown his hat into the ring.What the hell was hindsight useful for, though?Buck gave up preserving his
After confiding in his father about everything that had happened up to this point, Mortimer looked at his father with a long, glum face. “You have to help me out of this, Dad. Help me pay them back! Please, I’ll never touch anything like it ever again in my life, I promise…”Phineas was initially enraged by his son’s folly, but seeing Mortimer in person had reminded him of one thing. “Hold up. Something doesn’t add up. You’re here, aren’t you?” he asked aloud. “So why do we even need to pay that guy back? Now that you’re here, we don’t need to at all!”Phineas was right to point that out. If his son had returned in person, then there was no longer any real threat. He would loathe to believe that some gangster scumbag from another country would dare cause havoc in a foreign place. Besides, who was to say that same thug would be able to locate his son?He said as much, only to cause the consternation in his son’s mien to deepen. As it turned out, the thug was in Chinea too. He had eve
