Chapter 109 Luca Showcasing His Richness



Javier spends his lunch under Luca's hostile gaze and afterwards travels around the village with Jade, down the street.


Edelgard was not with them because she had to teach the students, while Luca was clearly following her.


While Javier and Jade were walking around, Jade said, “I think Edelgard and Luca have something pretty good. Looks like Luca doesn't have a one-sided relationship now. Judging from their conversation, I believe Edelgard was the one who told Luca where he was of his own accord. ”


Javier chuckles. "Are you trying to tell me that I shouldn't miss him?"


Jade rolled her eyeballs. "What are you talking about? You are free to miss anyone you like. All I'm saying is that Edelgard is a pretty good woman, so you shouldn't touch Luca no matter how asshole she is. You should try to tolerate him for the sake of Edelgard.


"Don't you see how heartbroken Edelgard was when you slammed his head against the table earlier?"


Javier understands what he's trying to say. He then stretched out his arm and wrapped it around Jade's slender waist, leaning his body towards her face at the same time.


“You're the one with the highest EQ, so I'll do what you say. I won't put my hand on that b*stard again.”


Jade was delighted after being praised, but she couldn't get in the mood even though she saw Javier's charming eyes. After all, they were in the village!


He feels very unhappy when Javier's big hand keeps rubbing his body.


“Stop messing around. Someone might see you..”


Jade breaks away from Javier's embrace in embarrassment and rushes deeper into the village.


At first, Javier was about to chase after her and move on, but he didn't want to when he saw the houses built with stones next to him and remembered the rundown house he had just slept in that morning. The houses seemed to be collapsing at any moment, but those dirty little ones were still playing under it. It was too dangerous!'


Javier went to ask the children to leave, but the adult watching them from the side said, “It's okay. The wall is sturdy!”


Javier doesn't know if they are sturdy or not, but he thinks that they might think retrospectively about walls made with such materials.


Meanwhile, children are at the right age to be in kindergarten and receive education, yet they hold tree branches and bend over, poke some worms nearby.


In front of them was a teenage girl holding a scythe and carrying a bamboo basket on her back. He wore tattered clothes and walked on the ground barefoot.


Javier himself can already feel his feet hurt from the rocks despite wearing shoes, but the teenage girl seems to have gotten used to it.


Jade, who was by his side, introduced the girl to Javier. “That's Christy. His stepfather used to be a carpenter in the village and was considered to live a pretty good life once. Her mother took Christy with her and moved in with her stepfather, who had four sons of his own.


“One year, his stepfather accidentally fell from a high place while working and became paralyzed, and his mother finally escaped after taking care of him for half a year. But Christy decides not to leave him and says that her guilty conscience does not allow her to leave him. In addition, he said that his stepfather was very kind to him, which is why he decided to stay.


“Four brothers wanted to drop out of school, but she insisted not. She said that she would be the best person to drop out of school because she was only in elementary school, while her brother was already in high school. After stubbornly insisting that she drop out of school, she learns how to farm, raise rabbits, and collect garbage by herself so she can take care of her family.


“Now, his two brothers have made it into the best university, while the third oldest in the military. Fourth brother will take the university entrance exam the following year…"


Javier's heart was filled with admiration and respect for Christy as Jade introduced him in detail.


'There's no way I could be as strong as Christy if I was in her position.


'He had to bear a great burden despite his age, even though he should have been weak and fragile. In addition, she had taken care of her four brothers and stepfather, all of whom had no blood relation at all…


'What a tough girl .. I'm amazed ...'


“Send him to school. I'll cover all the expenses of his family.” Jade immediately shook her head right after Javier said that “Akh would have done it a long time ago if I could, but he simply refused to accept anyone's help. She became autistic after her birth mother left her, and she was very stubborn and unwilling to accept anyone's help.”


'Maybe it was precisely this stubbornness that shaped her into the tough girl she is today.'


However, Javier has also made a decision. She will seek out a psychologist to advise Christy and help her learn how to accept the help of others again and rejoin society. He wanted her to receive an education and live a new life.


Javier ended up spending the entire afternoon studying all the different situations that happened in Xerxes Village.


There are people who are too poor to care for those who are bedridden at home, and some whose homes even have grass growing on their walls, he said, it makes them look like a house from ancient times.


At dinner, there was a bowl of chicken on the table.


In the end, no one touched a bowl of chicken throughout dinner.


Luca did try and reach out to take some, but Edelgard immediately slapped his hand, so the first one pulled his hand out of embarrassment.


After Thomas left, Jade said, "We must think of a way to help this village."


Javier already had a rough idea of what he could do, but Luca immediately pointed at him before he could even say anything.


“Everyone driving a G63 to donate! He's rich, isn't he? Let's ask him to donate money to the village! ”


Because of Edelgard, Javier didn't shake Luca's hand.


Instead, he said, “Sure, I will donate 15,000 dollars to the village committee.”


He would only donate that much money at most because he was very clear about one thing: Money would only solve their problems temporarily…


If Javier just donates the money, all the millions of dollars he has on his Messer card, in fact, there will come a time when that money will be spent entirely. When that happens, although the living conditions of the village will improve and everyone will be able to have a much better life in modern society, they will all be couch potatoes.


Luca obviously didn't think of any of this because he was surprised by how stingy Javier was. After all, he was only willing to donate 15,000 dollars.


“What the fuck?! You have a G63 that is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, yet you only contribute 15,000 dollars? Are you kidding me ?! ” After scolding Javier, Luca slammed his hand into the table and arrogantly said, “Alright, I will accept the fact that you are doing charity now. In fact, I will contribute five times the amount you contributed!”


Luca looked proud of himself at the time. 'Are you going to donate five times more?


that amount?'


Javier smiled and said, "You're in front of two beautiful women right now, so are you sure you'll keep your promise?"


Luca became even more proud when he saw Edelgard and Jade staring at him.


"of course! You can go ahead and donate everything you want. Let's see how much you can get, you piece of shit with a seedy G63! Don't you know which family I come from? ”


Javier was immediately excited and started investigating Luca by asking, “So what if I donate 15,000 dollars?”


Luca immediately said without thinking, “Then I will donate 75,000 dollars!”


After saying that, Luca happily raised his head towards Edelgard as if he was trying to say, “See! Your boyfriend's an amazing guy, isn't he? Generous, right?”


Javier chuckles. “Then, I will add my donation of 30,000 more dollars.”


Luca spoke up again. “150.000 dollars from me then. This amount means absolutely nothing to me!”


Javier chuckled and went on to increase the number. "I'll add another 60,000 dollars."


Luca slightly hesitated before saying, “This amount is nothing..30,000 dollars!”


“Good, you just donated enough money to buy an entire Ferrari. That's incredible!"


After saying that, Javier once again added the amount of his own donation. "I'll add another 120,000 dollars then."


Luca. 'Oh, shit! I've been trapped!'


It might be easy for Luca to shout out the amount, but 5 times 120,000 dollars would be 600,000 dollars, which would result in a total of 1.125 million dollars!


However, when he realized that Jade and Edelgard were still staring at him, Luca clenched his teeth and said, “600,000 dollars! Easy!"


How rich Luca is!


So, Javier slammed the table and said, “I added another 300,000 dollars. Let's do it!" Luca was completely dumbfounded…
