The Hero

Chapter 298 For The Good of the People

It was at that moment that Victoria knew how she was doing.

He firmly believes that the call Javier made to Lloyd was legitimate. No one other than his company boss had the ability to cancel it in such a short amount of time. Nor does anyone else have the power to take all of his resources and opportunities as a star, including advertising jobs and talk show appearances.

As he flicked his cigarette ash again, Javier's tooth grin remained the same. “Yes, it's me. What, you want to punch me in the face for that?

Victoria didn't dare, even if she wanted to. Inactivity for three months can freeze a person's momentum to become a star when it comes to her type actress. Even if he could, theoretically, rise from his intention and return to new heights, it would still be an uphill battle. What else could he expect after being cancelled altogether?

He may not have a way to continue his career

How could he not panic?!

“Who are you ?! Why are you doing this to me - tell me why ?! ” screeches Victoria, feeling furious. “I'm just an actress trying to make ends meet. I'm the underdog here, while you are.. You have all that power now, don't you, Mr. One-of-the-elite?! So why: play this power imbalance game against me? Can't say that you became a bully by doing that?”,

Javier's really stunned. "Wait what? Am I the bully? Excuse me, princess! Your parents started it. They insisted on taking away the house I chose—when they couldn't afford it at all! By the way, I was able to afford the house I chose, but they didn't allow me to buy it no matter what. Seriously, sister, who do you think taught them how to feel this damn right?

“And then you came to me without even trying to solve this problem! You immediately ordered your bodyguards to punch me in the face while shouting about how bastard you are. Then, when I hit your stupid muscle, you started to violently throw money in my face to make me back from buying my house. I don't know, man. Is it just me, or is it kind of funny you call me a bully after doing all that?

“And don't get to the part when you call yourself 'just an actress trying to make ends meet.' Sister, you've been shouting about how big your stars are and how much influence you have in the entertainment industry! Since when have you been an underdog?” his reply. “And you asked me why I was against you, as if you were really too stupid to be self-conscious. Are you really that stupid?”

Victoria was at a loss for words. If there was something he was completely unaware of, it was the fact that he had switched tactics in the middle of their fight. She starts out as a proud queen ready to quell the rebellion and then turns into an underdog crying about her losses. Although she was unconscious, she easily changed roles and began to take on the role of a victim.

It seems plausible that this annoying thorn on his side must have a status as strong as Lloyd's.

As the exchange progressed, the anxiety and panic of Victoria's parents grew. They had no idea what was going on, but they knew that their daughter must have offended someone strong.

The older woman showed off her own acting skills as she quickly walked in with a fake smile. “Alright, I think we understand how serious the situation is, boss. We are just your typical village! Sometimes we're too blind for our good, you know that. But I know you're a bigger person than us, a rude commoner, don't you? Please give me the other cheek and let Victoria get away with it just once, okay? Let's not cause things to escalate anymore, okay?

Javier laughed scornfully. “The last time I gave you this chance and left, you yelled about how bad your daughter was and how hard she was going to destroy me, right? Didn't I tell you to be a good person and not drag your daughter into this mess? God, but you're not listening, are you? And now that you realize that you can't really bully me through him, you just want to let this pass quickly and get out of your responsibility, huh?

“Bu, you have grown up much longer than us. Jesus, you're a senior! You should be aware of known concepts like accountability and admitting your mistakes, right? he added.

Javier didn't plan on letting this go. He hates people like Victoria— - people who think a little bit of fame can make them a diva. It is too easy to destroy someone like Victoria Loesch; they can easily find another Victoria - anyone among aspiring actresses and replace this one.

No, the most important aspect about celebrities that companies sign is their character. Troubled problem magnets should always be exterminated before they destroy the company with one enormous and mutually damaging antics.

At this point, Victoria finally realized who was the problem magnet in her ranking. The curse that his actions unintentionally caused him to suffer today,

“You said she threatened you with rape! Threatening father that he would beat him to bloody pulp! Mom, what the fuck?!” Victoria was goosebumps, her burning anger causing her parents to cower in shame.

“Well, it's because.. It's bb-because you said you were busy and you won't come back to solve our problem, and, well. That's why we said a little white lie ”

“WW-White lie?! You lied to me?!" Victoria erupted, stomping her feet: "I swear, one day, you two old farts will be my death!"

Congratuations. He must have had enough mouth to call his own parents something so evil.

Javier's lips curled into a toothed grin, pushing his eyes into a half-cross. “You don't have the best memory, I understand. You must have forgotten about me praising your sexy lips. 'That member?

His comments gave Victoria hope. He was always the type of person who would do anything to reach the top. Nothing goes beyond bounds if it means taking him a step higher than his place. His sensuality was only one of the tools in his arsenal.

A new mist of seduction was controlling his eyes.

He did not say anything, but it was as if a tempter had possessed him. He cast a spell using his own gaze.

Shit for him, Javier wouldn't let him tease him like that. He returned to his seat in front of the door and pointed at his crotch. “Forward Apologize to me while your parents watch.”

He was clearly referring to more than just a verbal apology. Had that been the case, Victoria's earlier apology was enough - it was this that gave her a clue as to what she really wanted from him. He glanced at his parents from behind his shoulder. Awkward, to say the least. But he thought about his future and decided that, for all the awkward implications it would have, he would rather go through this than die in a ditch somewhere in Hollawyd, completely forgotten.

The internal debate is short. Victoria approached Javier and knelt down, extending her hand towards his crotch. There was no shy hue anywhere on his face - in fact, he looked extremely lustful.

The older woman and her husband felt very humiliated. They did not expect their daughter to be so open to doing this kind of thing. It was just embarrassing and undignified!

But they didn't stop him.

Disgust and humiliation were easily seen on their faces, yet they did not say anything to stop their daughter. It was as if he had nothing to do with them.

Just as Victoria was about to close her fingers around her target, she felt a loud kick deep into her stomach. That power caused him to fall and roll off of her as Javier pulled his leg. Pouting, he sneered, "As if you're good enough for me!"

She's stunned. Then, the shock turned into a printed rage. “You toyed with me?!”

Javier flicked his cigarette butts at her, and it fell right inside her skirt. The coals burned his sensitive skin, and he screamed in pain. Only he knew where exactly it landed on him.

“I don't even want to touch you, Brother. You are just a cheap sensation. And all I did was try to prevent my boredom by playing with you, ”dia announced. “It's boring. Just get it out of my sight!”

He stood up and patted his ass, ready to go. But Victoria's not gonna let go so soon.

“No, you stop right at your place! Your mom* cking d* ckface, you think you can cancel me and win, huh? Sorry to disappoint you, but you won't just put me under your thumb! Do you think Lloyd will listen to you like a dog? Well, even if he humbles you, I can always go somewhere else. There will always be agencies and companies that want my talent!”

Javier waved nonchalantly, as if beckoning him to do whatever he liked. He sauntered back to the villa before leaving one of the last threats behind. “There is one last thing I want to say to the three of you: This is my home. You come here without an invitation once more and I'll cut off your legs. Don't try me!”

Without looking back at them, he turned around and went inside.

Victoria gritted her teeth, feeling helpless. His mother eventually approached him and tried to help him, reprimanding him. “Come, wake up, darling. We can't let anyone see you like this. You're a star, remember?” Victoria adorned the old woman's face with her hands as if it was a whip.

“Star, my *ss! If it wasn't for your stupidity, you old man, you think I would have ended up in this state?!”

The older woman gawked at him, feeling surprised.
