Javier yanked Eliott’s collar and dragged him to the railing at the top of the building.“Last chance. Like you said before, get on your knees and apologize to me.”Eliott did not know why he needed to apologize to a piece of trash.“F*ck you, you think I’d be scared of you after you beat me up? I’m not scared of anything!“You’re asking me to apologize to you? You piece of trash, you can f*cking dream on! Don’t even think about—AH!”Eliott did not even get to finish his audacious claims when his body was flung through the air and pushed away from the railing. His legs flailed and kicked, but there was nothing for his feet to find purchase on.Other than the hand grabbing his collar, there was nothing else keeping him tethered.It was when Eliott saw how calm Javier looked that he became aware that the latter was not scaring him. He was really going to kill him! And he was only one step away from falling off the building and dying!“Javier! Javier, calm down. Come on, we don’t
Joey dared not assume the same attitude she had just now since Javier had the video. She was scared too. She was already in her forties, so it would be mortifying if that kind of video was published on the internet.Javier told her with a smile, “Keep your mouth shut. This is none of your business. Don’t interrupt.”This was a blatant threat. He was threatening Joey to shut up by using her video.Joey was infuriated, but there was nothing she could do. She could only be told what to do and clamp her mouth shut.Javier then looked at Jared. He was about to say something when the latter beat him to it.“I didn’t want to do anything to you because you’re just an ant in my eyes. As the alpha lion, I really don’t want to stoop to the level of a pest. Stepping on you would mean dirtying my foot. But you’ve completely forgotten your place.“Javier Kersey, say, what’s the meaning of a scumbag like you acting so tactlessly in front of me? Are you trying to speed up your death? I really do
Joey felt that Javier would not dare do that and she did not think he would win this bet either. Who was Jared? He was the heir of North-Griffin Inc!Cold, hard reality proved her wrong in an instant.Jared sprang up with a look of shock on his face. “What? My 22.5-million-dollar investment went down the drain?!”Joey could not hear what the man on the other end of the line said, but she could see Jared’s expression and hear what he said. She simply thought that Javier might have just gotten lucky.Business affairs were ever-changing. Something that had been so sure to make money could turn into a loss. It was possible, though unlikely, but Javier was fortunate enough to run into this and thus win the bet. This displeased Joey. She was not a sore loser, though, especially when Javier had something against her. She took a deep breath and looked at him. “Tell me, what do you want to do to me?”Javier answered, “Simple. I want to remove your clothes.”The demand appalled Joey, as
In reality, Jared did not get on his knees. After holding out until 9 p.m, he took a deep breath and flashed a triumphant grin at Javier.“This isn’t much. Just like I said, I’m rich. This money isn’t anything to me, really. It isn’t anything.”Jared got up to leave the bar after that without even greeting Joey.Joey commented, “I think you lost.”Javier asked with a beam, “Have you ever been a preschool teacher?”When Joey shook her head, Javier said, “Me neither, but I’ve heard from a friend that preschool teachers are stern and do not allow kids to soil their pants. Anyone who does that gets punished.“So when the teacher asks who soiled their pants, no one will admit to it.“Is it the truth, though? Obviously not. Only those who soiled their pants know the truth.”When Javier finished, Joey understood. She knew that Javier was implying that Jared had soiled his pants but refused to admit it. What she did not understand was how he could be so confident about it. Just as she
By the time Joey left the hospital, she was fretting with worry, her usual cheeriness long gone.Javier smiled when he took the diagnosis report from her.“Are you gloating over this?” Joey was upset when she spotted the smile on Javier’s face.He shook his head. “I wouldn’t have suggested that you come to the hospital if I were to do that.”That was all it took to silence Joey, as it made sense when she thought about it. However, she still wanted to know what Javier’s smile meant.Javier told her after they got in the car. “I was just smiling about the doctor’s suggestion. All they know is to do surgery.”Joey asked in delighted surprise, as if she had seen newfound hope, “What are you saying?”“If you trust me, I can help you.”“Huh?!” Joey was stunned. She had wholeheartedly thought that Javier would know some professional specialist, only for him to say that he would be doing it himself.Once Joey remembered where her cyst was and realized Javier was going to treat her him
With Javier’s “treatment”, Evanna finally failed to hold herself back. Her instinct had made her let go of her self-restraint and prepare herself to take what was about to come. She could care less that she was currently in the office.Javier was thrilled when he saw the flushed Evanna get up from the chair. He knew that it was a success—he was definitely experiencing the woman’s sultriness and delicateness today.Just when Evanna was about to throw herself into his arms, looking dazed and passionate, hasty knocks came from the office door.The external factor woke Evanna up entirely, painting her redder like she was going to drip blood. She quickly turned the video off and smoothed her wrinkled clothes down as much as possible before she glared at Javier. “It’s all your fault, stupid Javier.”It sounded like a whiny admonishment, but there was no bite in Evann’s tone.Javier looked at Evanna, who was about to end up with him yet had gotten away in exasperation. There was nothing
What a determined man!Javier liked that, so he patted the guy’s shoulder. “All right, we’ll play a game of getting what you wish for.“What did that mean? The tattooed guy did not quite catch it, simply assuming that Javier would not dare kill him. The longer he had spent in the gangs, the more braggers he had met. Nobody actually dared to kill someone, but there were plenty who said they wanted to kill someone.That was why he was unfazed about Javier’s threat of perching a blade against his neck. Javier did not seem like he cared either as he continued smoking nonchalantly. Of course, to prevent the guy from escaping, he pulled the guy’s hands back against the tree and pinned them down with the dagger.The action made the tattooed guy cry in pain as he wailed again.His accomplices were infuriated and wanted to fight Javier wielding the shovels, but Javier picked up a glass shard to push it against the tattooed guy’s neck. What he meant was clear—a step forward, and he would
Brazen—that was what Javier was. He kept the secretary in his arms and toyed with her. No matter how the secretary struggled, she was unable to escape his vice-like clutch.Tyler was trembling in rage. “You lawless b*stard!”Tyler was not one to only curse at Javier as he picked up the phone to call the security guards.Javier suddenly grabbed the secretary’s high heel and threw it out. The supposedly ordinary black-sequined high heel turned into a powerful weapon in Javier’s hand.Tyler did not even get to react when the eight-centimeter heel of the shoe stabbed his eye. He howled in pain right away, but it was in vain.For the sake of his convenience to do anything in the office and not let others hear it, he had specifically requested a soundproofed room. Unless one fired a gunshot in the office, those outside could hardly hear the noises in there.That was why his agonized cries did not get any attention. Javier’s bold advances on the secretary were the only thing he got in r
