Evanna was ready? Well, Javier had already been anticipating this before her! He had been waiting for this moment. He had been waiting for it for so long... At last!He nipped on Evanna’s skin, toying with it until her cheeks turned scarlet. When the foreplay was over, she closed her eyes sheepishly with bated breath. She puckered her lips unconsciously as she waited for the moment when she was no longer a maiden but a real woman. Goodbye, innocence! This farewell might be a skin-tearing, painful one too! This was the moment of truth—but the moment was interrupted when the phone suddenly rang. Javier was so not into it. What kind of idiot would let go of the ripe fruit in his hands for that sort of mundane sh*t?!The sudden ringtone startled Evanna, though, who turned and saw Joey’s name on the screen. “It’s my mom! Why is she calling you this early in the morning?” she asked aloud as she picked the phone up and brought it closer to Javier’s face. Javier was speechless. H
Don’s mindset was simple enough. His father had warned him not to provoke Javier, right? Then that was exactly what he would do. Why? Why?! Because his special little kid was dead! Why did someone as talented as his son have to die, while a beta soyboy sh*tbag like Javier got to extend his life like a maggot?!Don was livid. Javier should have died—not Eliott! If Eliott had survived…Don steered his car straight to Javier’s residency. When the latter came out of the house, he found himself staring at Don, who got out of his car with a gaze so stormy that it baffled Javier. Why was he so pissed? Had this idiot found out that he had murdered his kid? Don dispelled any doubts regarding what he knew about his son’s killer soon enough. “What is the point of keeping a beta maggot like you alive, huh? So others can pretend to be white knights around you?! The more I look at you, the more your very being disgusts me. You’re a beta, doormat-level c*ck! My son was born a star with a future
Don wanted to scream, but nothing came out of his throat. Of course not; Javier had used the tactics he had learned from the Grimoire to silence him and control his feet with his mind after all. The most Don could do was open his mouth with no sound coming out of his throat.The distance between him and the ledge was rapidly shrinking, and Don’s sheer panic was skyrocketing just as quickly. The workers had noticed his odd behavior. Alarmed, they hurried to his aid, hoping to dissuade the man they thought was about to commit suicide. “Stop! Stop, man! You shouldn’t go there—stop, please, just stop for a minute!”They hollered. They yelped. They tried to pull him away. The previous tragedy might have given them a chance to earn some more because the project now required them to reinforce the building’s safety features, but these were good people. Therefore, they instinctively wanted to help their fellow human being. Something yanked them back while they attempted to do so, though—t
It was Joey. She had come back from her globe-trotting trip to find a cure, despite Javier telling her he could do it. After finding no other cure aside from surgery, she had hurried back to her savior like a lamb returning to its flock. She was very quick too. She called him in the morning and was already back in Chinea before evening. She still had a flight left to take to return to her home properly, as there was no international airport in this city. Javier talked a bit more with David after the call. “Don’t get too hung up on your family affairs, Mr. Dennison. You should only worry if your grip on their leash isn’t tight enough,” he said, flashing the older man a cryptic smile before leaving altogether. David needed only a few seconds to understand his meaning. Had he held onto the leash around Don’s neck more tightly, his idiot of a son would still have been alive by this point. He should have chastised him more sternly! Now, the only child he had left was his daughter—the
Evanna went to work at the academy alone after breakfast. Meanwhile, Joey and Javier went to the hospital. There, Joey met the female doctor she had seen previously for her diagnosis, Mary Maine. Mary needed to take only one look at the report to remember who she was. “Ah, it’s you! It’s alright, you don’t need to take a new X-ray. You just had one, remember? Let’s proceed to the hospitalization arrangements, shall we? I’ll schedule your surgery as soon as possible.”Then, she wrote on a piece of paper in handwriting only a doctor could understand before passing it to Javier. He was to pay the sum at the counter. “I insist on taking an X-ray, doctor. I found a Traditional Chinean Medicine practitioner who cured me.”“Now, hold on a sec. That’s alternative medicine, you know. It’s the sort of stuff I’m skeptical about! I’ve devoted my whole life to researching and practicing mainstream, evident-based medicine, and I’ve reached the conclusion that it’s the most accurate and efficie
Javier and Joey were about to leave when Mary suddenly threw herself at Javier’s feet. “Please, sir, was it you? You’re the one who helped her, right? Can you teach me how to do it? I want to learn about the magnificence of our great and glorious Chinean medicine so I can help more sick people!”Witnessing Joey’s change made Mary understand that this was medicine of the highest value. With it, she would no longer need to slave away in the hospital, where her spirit reached its limits. She could just open up her own health center, focusing on magical tumor removals and making lots of money! Every woman with a little bit of vanity would lap it up. She would be filthy rich! She could be a billionaire!Mary did not care for the magnificence of Chinean medicine at all. Instead, she simply coveted this magical healing power. Unfortunately for her, Javier’s judgment of a person’s character had always been superhumanly good—even without taking into consideration how obvious the greed in her
The road was wide, and there were not too many cars on it, yet this truck was coming for him. No matter how Javier avoided it, the truck headed for him. It was obvious that this was a planned collision!Javier stepped on the accelerator and brake with each foot as he steered the steering wheel abruptly.The car drifted on the spot, making squeaks, and where the head of the car had become the end of the car. As soon as it changed its position with the drift, the end of the car was rammed into with a loud bang.Fortunately, they were wearing their seat belts, so the collision did not cause them any actual damage. When Javier checked on Joey, he saw the panic on her face, but she nodded to let him know she was not injured.Javier kicked the car door open and unfastened his seat belt to get out of the car, heading to the truck behind them. He had it all figured out. He was going to drag the truck driver out and to somewhere deserted before they would start talking.He had already beat
There were two people in the office. One was the salesperson, Angela, and the other was easily the sales manager.What Angela said made Javier’s blood boil.She said, “Mr. Davey, you’re talking about sales with me now, but what kind of time did you set for me to meet the customers? 8:00-8:30 a.m. and 6:00-6:30 p.m.“Have you seen anyone who’s here to buy a car just as we start working or anyone who’s here at 6:00 p.m.?“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to? Just because Chinean cars make good sales easily, you bully the employees in the dealership only to realize that they all have some sort of support, so you end up picking on me.“I’ll have you know that I, Angela Jupp, would rather quit this job than let you have your way!”Angela shoved the door open in rage with that. She was surprised when she saw Javier, not knowing why he was out there, but she still left angrily.The sales manager, Hogan Davey, smirked, not at all embarrassed that Angela had exposed him. He was even in a
