Javier put away his phone after he hung up and smiled at Kira, who was farther away.“It was planned. I purposely made him call now so I could scare you.”Kira chuckled wryly because she knew that it was impossible. Everything had happened spontaneously. How could Javier have arranged for it in advance? It could only be a coincidence—and only a coincidence like this one would disclose the real facts.This was a man who disregarded even Freddy, and she had offended him by threatening to incapacitate him, all at her own expense…Kira was ashamed once she thought of the bluster that had left her mouth just now. She was terrified. She honestly could not understand how that brat Charlie had provoked such an intimidating person or why the guy had only broken Charlie’s legs. The punishment had been honestly quite light—kind, even.Kira finally spoke up after some contemplation.“Mr. Carsey, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have p*ssed you off. Charlie just got his legs broken. It was already a
Getting taken advantage of was inevitable, but Javier was not going to jump Kira right on the spot. He wrapped an arm around her and got into the Buick van.As Kira had expected, the driver was sprawled on the steering wheel, obviously knocked out.Javier dragged the driver off the van as though the latter was a dead dog and motioned for Kira to hop on before he drove off. Kira asked him while they were on their way, “Where are my men?”“You’re pretty loyal. You’re still trapped with me but you’re worried about your bros,” Javier answered.Kira was speechless, but it was true that she was fretting. The men worked for her, after all, yet she did not even know if they were dead or alive right now. What Javier said after that made her feel relieved.“They’re all tied up in the van. As long as they aren’t pigs, they’ll figure out a way to untie themselves.”Kira was no longer worried about them. Now, she began to feel anxious for herself. “Where are we going now?”Javier answered,
After Javier sat down and Kira sat on his lap, the server with the tray of 150-million-dollar crystal chips approached them with a long face. A few of those chips on the tray could have belonged to him, but because he had looked down on Javier…Sigh!The casino chips were placed on the table with a red cloth covering them, so no one would know how much there was under it.Javier glanced at the table and asked Kira, “What are the rules here?”“It’s more or less the same. Free table, turn-taking bankers, the starting bet is 150,000 dollars without a maximum limit, and going blind is allowed,” Kira answered.Going blind meant not checking the cards and purely gambling based on luck. Javier had known about it for a long time.After the game started, Javier touched Kira’s warm, supple legs. Even though the barrier of their pants was between them, the touch was still warm and soft.It was fortunate that Kira’s legs were under the table and no one could see, so she was not as shy. She ev
The man in the white shirt smiled, looking at Javier after he sat down.“Mister, can the two of us have a game alone?”Kira had been playing all this while, but the white shirt guy came for Javier once he sat down. It was apparent that he realized Javier was actually the one playing and Kira was only being teased and coaxed.Javier patted Kira’s bottom without meaning for it to be derogatory, and the latter got up to stand behind him sensibly.Javier extended an arm next to motion for the white shirt guy to start.White Shirt was easygoing. “We don’t have to start with a base. Let the dealer deal directly. We can play based on pure luck. Let’s not handle our cards at all. What do you think?”Javier replied with a chuckle, “You’re the boss. You call the shots in your own place.”White Shirt was taken aback. “Do you know me?”Javier smiled without answering and had the dealer do his job.Did he have to know the guy? He had defied the rules for so long in the casino, purely winni
“Mr. Kersey, why don’t we pause the game for now and have a talk before we go on?”Kyle did not want to lose his money. That was almost all he had, so he wanted to talk to Javier privately in the VIP room. They could chat and get acquainted, maybe even form a connection. Who knows, maybe they had a mutual friend or two. This way…Well, he would not dream of not losing money, but as long as he lost less, it would be good.Unfortunately, Javier had read his mind. “Trying to make friends now? Nope.”Kyle had been destined not to leave with his money the moment he had appeared with his 150 million dollars. There was no such thing as coveting Javier’s money and wanting to retreat unscathed when the plan failed.Kyle was nettled when Javier refused to reciprocate his offer to be friends. How could such a person exist? He was not being the least bit courteous! That said, Kyle had an influence on the gangs too.The next moment, his smile faltered as he scowled. “It seems that you’re not do
Kyle surrendered and begged for mercy. His head met the floor successively with a loud sound. If he had known that Javier was far beyond his reach, he promised he would have served him with a wide smile. He would never have dared take advantage of him. Look at him now. Not only had he failed to reap any benefits, but this was going to cost him…While Kyle apologized profusely, Javier received a call from Chessie again.“Darling, Kyle’s been under me for a long time and has always been loyal to me.”Chessie did not ask for anything. She merely reasoned with Javier, and Javier understood what she wanted.“Sure. Then you owe me a 95-dollar business deal. The kind where lodging is provided?”“Okay. Come sign the deal now if you can. My cycle is over.”Audacious. Javier finally knew who Kyle had picked up his insolence from. Could he, an underling, be less brazen when his boss was this brash?“Chessie, just you wait. Once I’m done here, I’d like to see you act cocky. This would have
For the next two days, Javier stayed with Kira. As for what they kept doing together, it would be unnecessary to state it and too obscene for a younger audience anyway.Javier received a call from Derek while he was on the road at noon. The latter had informed him that Freddy had sent some people to fight at the entrance of the mall. The people they were beating up were not mall patrons or the security guards but Vernon’s underlings.Although no side had an advantage, that was beside the point. The point was that the mall’s patrons were scared off. There had been a snake incident, and then a group fight at the entrance. What kind of customer would dare pay a visit to the mall now?“Freddy Russo’s asking for a lesson, isn’t he? Go and teach him one to make sure he learns!”Javier called Herschel after he ended his call with Derek, and the two of them went to Freso Corporation, which belonged to Freddy.A security guard came up to them to stop them and ask who they were there to see
Freddy turned around and ran his eyes over the secretary’s long legs with a grin.“What’s the emergency? Are you in heat and need my help to help put the fire out?”The secretary was embarrassed. Although she knew that she was bound to be taken advantage of by Freddy, this was obviously not the time for that. What she wanted to say was something else, something that was incredibly frightening.“The security guards downstairs said that two men knocked out all the guards in the company and are making their way over here right now.”“What?!” Freddy was taken aback.Another voice rang out immediately. “You heard right. Two men have incapacitated all your security guards, but to be precise, it’s not two men because I didn’t do anything. It was all him.“And now…I think he’s going to hit you. Watch out!”The fact that Herschel had fought his way into Freddy’s office shocked him. There was a big number of security guards in the company, yet Herschel had incapacitated all of them alone?
