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
Fleur thought she was going to have a wonderful future with Javier, but this was obviously just her thoughts running wild in her mind.Javier had no such thoughts. In fact, he didn’t even want to have any sort of future with her.Thus, when they reached a turn where nobody was around, Javier called for the men he had arranged to be there beforehand.As for Fleur, Javier gave those men instructions to take care of her…forcefully.Of course, what happened after this should not be described…Javier left the mall after around half an hour, heading back to the university. Javier had only bought the shopping mall because he had the money to do so and he had wanted to show that he was not someone to be trifled with. Other than that, he did not care whether the mall was going to bring him any profit or loss. All he needed to do was confirm Derek’s future performance.For the time being, his focus was on the university. After all, Kaiser had already said that someone from the Raiders wa
Of course, Megara was not willing to go along with what Javier wanted, but this did not stop him from using force.It was almost two hours later by the time everything was over.Megara was now looking at Javier with eyes filled with frustration. “How did it all escalate so quickly?”Javier felt very helpless. “Did you think I wanted it to turn out like this? There was supposed to be a huge segment in between, but I was forcefully stopped halfway…”Javier and Megara finally left one another’s arms when someone knocked on the office door after another round of flirting.Megara hurriedly tidied up her clothes while Javier very calmly got up and admired Megara’s body.Before leaving, he said, “I don’t have a place to stay at night, so I’ll stay at your place from now on.”Megara instantly felt frustrated. “In your dreams!”She was not afraid of reporting the matter to the police, but she was afraid of the public learning about the scandal. However, she could not let Javier stay at
They were in the same class after all, so everyone stopped them in hopes of avoiding the conflict.Harley even got up to apologize with a wry smile. “Alexander, don’t be mad. Xavier’s just still groggy from his nap and didn’t realize that it was you. Come at me if you’re angry. He doesn’t know better, so there’s no need to be so hard on him.”It was undeniable that Harley was nice to Javier, as he fretted about the latter getting into trouble. Despite that, was Javier scared of trouble? Of course not!“F*cking hell, who do you think you are? Get the f*ck out of here. I’m scolding this scumbag, so why stick your loser head into it?“Harley Merritt, I’m telling you, poke your nose into my business again and I’ll f*cking beat the crap out of you!”It was obvious that Alexander was pretty aggressive and brazen, but Javier did not care. He swung an arm to hit Alexander and teach him a lesson while the latter was still spewing insults, but their class representative, Zenya, came over at
“What does he have to do with me, hmm?“My family runs a supply business, and we’re rich. We already have two cars in the price range of 80,000 dollars. How is he worth being with me?“I’m not making fun of him, but those two cars my family owns would take him decades to buy—he might not even afford one in his whole life!“How dare you introduce a cheap man like this to me? Are you not embarrassed?”It was Fiona who spoke first maliciously, as she kept flaunting her sense of superiority in front of Javier.What the heck? Who did she think she was? Due to the fact that she was only a young girl, Javier could care less about being petty. He patted Harley’s shoulder and told him, “I’m done eating. I’m leaving.”Harley thought that Javier was hurt by the comments and quickly stopped him. “Bro, bro, don’t—”He did not get to finish his sentence, as Fiona spoke up again. “That’s more like it. Have the self-awareness to know that you’re just a piece of trash.“Alright, I’ll stop naggi
