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
Javier dismissed Herschel after he reached the bottom of Megara’s building. Before he went over, he plucked a short binding wire from a bike in passing.When he got to the third floor, he casually bent the wire several times and inserted it into the keyhole, opening the door. Everything happened so swiftly that it looked like he was opening the door with a key.This was one of the petty little tricks Javier had picked up from Mackenzie when he was younger but it felt foreign after not using it in years.Javier closed the door after he entered the place and spotted the high heels and clothes strewn on the floor straight away. Needless to say, they belonged to Megara and had been discarded on the floor when she had taken them off upon coming home. The trail of clothes on the floor led to the bathroom door, and the sound of the shower running could be heard inside, as well as Megara cheerily humming a tune.Since the woman was not wearing anything, Javier did not find it necessary t
Cher was 30 years old and was a fair woman with an elegant flair. Everyone liked her. People at school were even divided into two groups that chose between her and Megara. One of them was saying that Cher had a distinct charm, while the other group preferred Megara.Javier was obviously not torn. Whenever he met a beautiful woman, he hoped to make love to them…While he let his thoughts run wild, Cher, who was holding some documents in her hands, spoke up. “Who’s Xavier?”Javier was slightly flummoxed. Not knowing when Cher had laid eyes on him, he stood up anyway. “I am. What’s the matter?”Cher glanced at Javier and began reading from the document she was holding. “According to the school rules, you’ve skipped school too many times and cannot get along with your peers…The school has decided to expel you.”There were plenty of reasons for this, but they were all meant to justify his expulsion.Cher left the classroom after she read the notice, and Alexander stood up to look at J
Javier could care less about knocking when he reached the principal’s office. If someone was unkind to him, they could forget about him being polite. That f*cker! Forget about knocking! Javier lifted his leg and kicked the office door open with a bang.However, he was quite stunned after kicking the door open.The principal was on his knees on the floor, while Cher’s skirt had been flipped up and pulled away to let the principal put his head…It was a filthy act, and it was hard to imagine that he would come across a surprising scene like this one.Cher flushed instantly and dropped her skirt before running off with scarlet cheeks without saying anything. Meanwhile, the principal stood up with painstaking effort, using the table for support. His gaze, which was on Javier, was furious.“Who the f*ck are you? Why did you kick the door open? I’m going to sack you!”It was also hard to imagine that this old man who was using colorful language was the principal. Apparently, his manner
While Javier made his way to Cher’s office, the principal hastily locked the cash in his safe and went to the classroom. Other lecturers had to hold a notice with his signature when they announced an expulsion, but he obviously was not held to the same standard since he was the principal.When the principal reached the classroom, he heard Alexander boasting proudly.“F*ck, who am I? Alexander Swaine, also known as Alexander the Great. The Great, you know? One of the world’s greatest military generals, that’s who Alexander the Great was. What does he represent? He represents authority. This means that I have authority!“Look at Javier. Who does he think he is? How dare he fight me! F*cker, that’s what he is!“It’s not just him. What about the principal? He’ll have to smile and pander to me whenever he sees me. I’ll be honest with you guys. When I went to him in the morning, he subconsciously asked ‘Alexander the Great, what brings you here?’ the instant he saw me.“See, the princip
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
