“God, I…I don’t know! I just took it to take a look at it, a-a-and it just cracked! I didn’t do anything, so why did it crack?” Dana cried, flummoxed and not at all sure what was happening. The trophy had looked fine, like no other, so how had it cracked into two just because she had lifted it out of curiosity?Then, her eyes drifted to the twitching lips on Javier’s face, which formed a snicker, desperately trying to hold a smile back.Damn it, she had just been trolled!“You annoying little—!” Dana blustered, stomping her feet. “You pulled off this annoying prank to scare me!”She was a forty-something-year-old woman in high heels, yet she looked adorable and not at all like other women her age. There was nothing jarring about her actions and age either. In Javier’s opinion, this only added to her charm.A beat later, Dana asked out loud, “Why break the little golden statue like that?”Javier took a deep breath. “Aren’t successes meant to be shattered so you can reach new heigh

Javier’s L5 model tore through the freeway and went straight home.It was a smooth ride. His new car was comparable to his experience driving luxury cars with much-touted comfort, like the Bentley. This proved that this country had always been capable of producing good cars, and it was their focus on making cheap cars that had cost them. To make cheap automobiles, one had to skimp on materials and quality, so the cars produced faced enough mishaps and problems that the public distrusted their nationally-produced cars more and more.It was a little past nine by the time he got home. By then, Jade was training in their personal gym. A sexy, toned body needed maintenance after all. All that sweat was just tears of excess fat as it was burned away.Javier did not pay much attention to her activity at first, but the longer he watched, the more he suspected something else. His eyes began to widen in joy as he asked, “Don’t tell me…you’re gonna be a mom soon?”“What? No!” She protested co

Trevor’s honesty was insane based on its sheer audacity. So insane, in fact, that Libby was fuming.“What’s this supposed to mean, huh?! That just because you’re a dirt-poor mother*cker, you have the god-given right to leech off of me?! That just because you’re a dirt-poor motherf*cker, you have the f*cking privilege to demand sh*t from me?! You are a f*cking parasite living in my colon, eating and living off of me, and now you’re announcing your uselessness as though you’re f*cking proud of yourself! You f*cking piece of sh*t, have you no shame?!”Trevor shook his head. “Believe it or not, there’s something else I have even less of: money.”As if to prove his point, he picked up the money scattered across the floor without giving a damn about Javier watching him. If anything, reality had made a strong case of proving Trevor’s shamelessness.History, however, was rife with examples of people who thought having shame was detrimental to their success before they hit their stride. The

Trevor’s rage was palpable.He should be. He used to be the commander, then someone stole it away from him and framed him for more than a year. His life had been plunged straight to the nadir.However, there was more to his fury. He was angry that the nation’s technological advancement had once made it possible to take the lead before every other country. And yet a small cabal managed to stall an entire generation worth of innovation…over their myopic profit.What angered him most was that these were the very same people whose family members enjoyed clear blue skies and fresh, unpolluted air overseas. The same people who drove around in luxury cars and lived in posh mansions while insisting indignantly that they had worked themselves to their *sses to advance the nation’s technology.These were the leeches who had banished Trevor from his position of power. And now, they posed as successful names and the pillars supporting the nation’s automobile industry.Trevor did his damndest

Javier did not answer that but asked Liam instead, “How much do I need to buy yours and your students’ patent?”Liam pursed his lips. “That’d be costly. I’m guessing probably a year’s worth of profit like what you said—if you sold 20 thousand units per month.”That would be 150 million dollars. They had just talked about the annual profit just now.According to the market rate, it seemed like a high price point to purchase the talents and patent of a technology using 150 million dollars, but Javier replied without hesitation, “Sure. These 150 million dollars won’t include your research lab and the likes as I’ll provide them additionally. I guarantee that they’ll be the most advanced the world has. I’ll have Trevor discuss that with you. He’ll make instant purchases of any equipment you need. Even if you need the Large Hadron Collider, I’ll buy it without a second word!”Liam was baffled. “You really aren’t pressed for money?”“Not at all!” Javier nodded seriously.Liam was curiou
