Javier’s “trash” comment ticked Eric off straightaway. He had never met someone tactless enough to dare provoke him repeatedly. He slapped the table.“How dare you act so high and mighty in front of me when your films have been stopped!“Looks like you won’t feel the heat if I don’t shut the whole Reivaj Group down!”While Eric huffed, Javier’s call was connected. “Mm, find out who Eric Barron is and discover every person in his father’s generation who has been involved in misconduct. Don’t leave anyone out. Right, then call him and let him know.”The call actually pulled a chuckle out of the angered Eric. F*ck the guy. He was bluffing too much. How dare he?Eric could not help asking Javier, “Do you know what my father’s generation does? How dare you brag like this?“You might wet yourself and get on your knees to beg me if I tell you!”Brazen, very brazen. It seemed as if Eric thought he was god and could squash anyone he liked. That was why Javier felt that he ought to give t

Jane was stunned. She had not expected her husband to appear suddenly. It might have been a political marriage, but he was still her legal husband. Having him catch her doing it with someone else embarrassed her greatly. She had thought she could hide this from the public. She was doing it for her family, and her siblings and cousins were outside. No one else knew…until her husband made his appearance. Worse even, Eric was right behind him, angrily murmuring, “You’re powerful enough not to fear that guy, right—”Eric faltered. He had not expected to see his sister in this state. Even more surprisingly, Javier let out a proud sneer and boned Jane hard right in her husband’s face. The man was livid. “You f*cking psycho!! Get that f*cking wanker out of here—I will kill you!!!”While he continued to bang Jane over and over with the two men as an audience, Javier picked up his phone and made a call. “I want all of Jane Barron’s family gone! Any one of them who’s ever f*cked a whore—I

It was Suzanne Quinn! Javier had never, not even in his wildest dreams, expected to bump into Suzanne again. As one of Kaiser’s trained stewards, she was expected to be by his side at all times. But now that she was here…Javier’s eyes brightened at the implication. Kaiser had to be around here somewhere too!Unfortunately, Suzanne disabused him of that hope after their initial greeting. “My boss gave me a few orders, so really, I just got here. I haven’t seen him yet myself,” she said. After talking to her a bit, Javier realized Suzanne had received the same message from his old man: He would come to this city in two days. Javier invited Suzanne along to dinner, but the young woman stole a glance at Lara, who was standing beside him, before giving him a knowing grin. “Oh, heavens no! I’m afraid I’ll have to pass today. See ya, big man!”She waved, her slender fingers pearly-white. She turned to Lara and gave her a polite smile before strutting away. The younger lady’s eyes li

Suzanne might outwardly deny it, but she was secretly delighted to hear him call her his girlfriend. Javier had been living rent-free in her head ever since their trip to Hildegarde. She simply could not make any comments hinting at it because she was just Kaiser’s lowly subject. Today, though, was different. She had become one of his many women…and right before she was ready for it too. Now that she had become his girl, Suzanne knew nothing about what was next. She thought her life was pretty good as it was, so there was no desire to ask him for more—certainly not for a big luxurious house or being some rich dame or anything. Had she wanted any of these things, she could have done it herself without Javier ever needing to come in. What she liked was how happy being with Javier made her feel. It must be what they called a happily-ever-after, like those fairytale endings! That night, Suzanne returned to her hotel…with Javier. He then gave her more of what he always did, bringing h

Javier spent every day of that week with Lara. The young woman was very kind, even after what Javier had done to her, so she chose to stay with him simply because she pitied him for shouldering so much pressure. A week was enough to kindle genuine love between them anyway. By the time Lara had really fallen in love with Javier, the man was ready to leave again. “Give working here your best shot, okay? Buy whatever catches your fancy too. There’s no need to hold back. I’ll leave you enough money,” he proclaimed. “I have a very important mission that needs to be done. I’ll look for you when it’s over! If you’re still single by then—if you’re not seeing anyone—then you’ll be my girlfriend!”He kissed Lara hard, took a deep breath, and climbed into his car. He left. Lara held her cheeks go hot, and her tongue was tied as she tried to say goodbye. She did not want money or formally being anyone’s girlfriend. She just wanted what he had told her to be real—that Javier would come back, a
