Chapter 677 No Facts, Just Fists

Author: Nine Linked Rings
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!”

    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

    “A student?!”Javier was bamboozled. Flummoxed. Nonplussed! How was that a legitimate mission? He was 25 years old! Where was he supposed to roleplay as a student? An elementary school where he would then proceed to become the king of the kids?Kaiser glared at him. “Who in their right mind would think of having you do that? I meant a university student, kid. You look young enough to make it believable, so no one would recognize you. I’ll have my people change your background and everything, and the rest of the process will be the same as your cover in real estate. Don a new mask and no one will be none the wiser.“You have to be very careful. This is more than a training ground—this is an actual undercover mission. You have to bait that member out. I’m telling you right now: That person is an important figure. You must find out who they are.“If you aren’t certain of your abilities, then don’t say yes. I can have someone else do this. The last thing I want is you ruining it becaus

    Nonetheless, Javier could see things from Kaiser’s perspective too. If this piece of news leaked, Morgan could very well be in grave danger. For her safety, Javier had to keep his lips sealed too.Sometimes, cruelty was the best defense. After his chat with Kaiser, Javier bade everyone farewell and left the location. Soon, he would have to become yet another fake, mundane “Javier Kersey” for his next job, but there was a loose end he wanted to tie before that.He wanted to see Morgan Fairchild.Javier flew to Republic City airport the very next day. Since he had called Morgan ahead of his arrival, the woman in question was waiting for him there personally.Her beauty and grace in their full glory aroused something within the ever-red-blooded Javier. She continued to be very sexy and seductive, which was not particularly helpful when it came to his self-control, especially in combination with the rather…suggestive interaction they’d had last time. Ultimately, though, Javier manag

    Faint shades of coyness shadowed Morgan’s mien, and she almost seemed embarrassed. She answered him, but her reply was not forthcoming. “It’s nothing major, Javier. I promise you. When it wears off, you’ll be okay again.”So, she was not telling him what it was, why it had been dumped into his wine, and what she was planning to do with a drugged Javier. The oblique nature of her intentions rubbed Javier the wrong way. He had trusted her! And she had repaid that trust with a drug of unknown purpose that she had used with unknown motives!He was just about to say something when an urge seized control of him. It was an urge that should not have come, and it was overwhelming, and maybe the most primal urge of a man. Javier finally realized what had gone into his glass.“You spiked my wine with that sort of thing?!”Morgan got to her feet and strutted toward him, her white heels clicking against the floor.“Javier, I’m so sorry, but you look so much like him! I miss him…I miss him so m

    Fleur instantly became unhappy when she noticed Javier’s arrival. She was feeling frustrated, even a little ashamed, as though Javier was a poor relative of hers who came from the countryside.When Javier got close, Fleur instantly dragged him aside, slapping away the hamburger in Javier’s hands. “I already told you on the phone not to come looking for me, so why are you still following me around like glue? How shameless can you actually get? Are you not even a man in the first place?! “Don’t you know that society is a place where benefits and money coexist? Everyone out here is working hard to earn more money, but you’re naively remaining in the same spot. I’m not going to stop you from remaining stagnant if that’s what you want, but don’t drag me down with you!“I’ve got good looks and a perfect body, so why should I be with you? You’re nothing more than a piece of sh*t who isn’t worthy of having a future with me. You can’t give me the future I want, you loser.“Do you under

    The landlord, who was over 50 years old, was on his knees, seeking Javier's forgiveness for being rude to him earlier. Meanwhile, Javier very readily accepted his apology.This was because he was not accepting it for himself. Instead, it was for Xavier, who had been suffering from rotten luck over the past 20 plus years, until the day he had died.Since he had assumed Xavier’s identity now, Javier thought he should live for his sake and not let anyone humiliate or insult him at the very least!“I’m sorry. Please forgive me for not realizing how rich and powerful you were before. I’m sorry…”The landlord groveled and begged for forgiveness, but Javier could not be bothered to deal with the man anymore. Hence, he hurled the stack of cash at his face and headed into his room. He did not even care what the landlord was thinking or doing outside! Shortly after entering his house, Javier received a phone call from Herschel. “Boss, we acquired Parrson. They’ll be waiting at the entran

    The rest of the people at the Parrson entrance waited for 10 more minutes before an Audi A8L drove over at 8:50 a.m. Then, Orion Freis, the general manager, and Derek Goodwin, the deputy general manager, arrived before the car. The car door opened up, and Maximus, the former CEO, got out. He asked Orion, who was respectfully greeting him. ‘Where’s the new CEO? Has he arrived yet?”Orion was stunned when he heard this. “No, he hasn’t. Isn’t he with you?”“Nonsense! When did I ever say he was going to come with me?”Orion was stunned after being scolded by Maximus, feeling completely confused as to what was happening. ‘The new CEO isn’t with Maximus? Where the f*ck is he then?’While Orion was stunned, Maximus looked around the area and finally saw Javier, who was surrounded by two security guards in the corner.He instantly flared up in anger and strode toward the security guards. Orion had also noticed Javier standing there, but he had only thought the latter was there to

    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
