The Hero

Chapter 47 Price Becomes Opposition

In front of everyone's eyes, Matthew stuffed the fake report into his mouth. He could not retreat even if he wanted to. As Jade had said, he had made the declaration in front of many people and could not lose his credibility as the company's deputy general manager.

As he chewed, his eyes burned with anger that seemed to be able to spit out and burn Jade alive. As an authority in the company, forcing her to eat the fake report was like a slap in the face. This made Matthew angry.

After swallowing the paper, Matthew glared at Jade before turning around and storming out. He was too embarrassed to stay longer.

When the monthly meeting was over, Jade's mood was very good. The first thing he did to get back to his car was pull out his phone to call Javier and share the good news with him.

Surprisingly, he couldn't reach his phone. The operator automatically said that the phone was turned off. This offended Jade for a reason. He also thought that the 'ancient general' had gone to live in seclusion after he had conquered the world. He was worried that Javier would just disappear and disappear from his world just like that.

It's not that Jade expects Javier to continue taking over the world for her, but she's used to having men by her side. With that longing, he returned home as quickly as possible to see if Javier was still there.

As soon as he stepped onto the porch, he saw a man sitting there smoking a cigarette. Jade painted her face on this discovery and she beamed for no reason.

Jade complains to Javier after he gets out of the car, “Why did you turn off your phone? I thought you were gone. You're worrying me for no reason."

“Worry about what? You can't possibly fall in love with me, right?” Javier chuckles.

Jade blushed hearing the suggestion. “T-no.."

He felt his heart pounding, losing his normal rhythm. Inevitably she wonders if she is really in love with Javier. Why else would he worry about her? The more he thought about it, the more embarrassed he felt. He did not dare to console those thoughts anymore and change the subject.

"That's right, Javier, you don't see how I praise Matthew Odell tonight ..."

As she retold the story to him, Jade could not help but feel the joy that enveloped her. It was like finally breathing out a breath of hot air. When he got to the part where Matthew was eating the financial statements, he became even more enthusiastic. His joy is clear.

Jade then turned to Javier. "And this is all thanks to you. If it wasn't for you, things wouldn't have gone well. Beacon's tires may be broke by now. Thank you, Javier. "

Javier waved at the woman a sincere thank you. The woman then sat down next to him and stared at the bright starry sky in a pleasant mood.

“No clouds. The sky was as bright and clear as I felt right now. Eventually, I will not be forced to marry again. It feels awesome!”

Seeing a charming face in the moonlight, Javier doesn't talk much Accompanied by a beautiful night and a beautiful woman, he doesn't want to spoil the atmosphere with the truth. Despite Jade's assumptions, she knew that there was no way Matthew would give up trying to force her to marry politically even though the quarterly agreement was over now.

And reality proves Javier's right. The next morning when Javier and Jade were just about to leave for work, they were stopped by Matthew. Position clear. In order for the company to register and make more profits, Jade's decision to marry the Dunham family remained.

Jade was furious and snapped, "What's the deal we made all that crap for you?"

Matthew waving. "I'm not arguing with you. You have to marry Dunham, and it's final!”

Unreasonable, he then pointed a finger at Javier, almost poking his nose.

Before Matthew could threaten Javier, the younger man had grabbed his finger and bent it forcefully. It made Matthew hiss as he squirmed and screamed in pain.

"I advise you to heed my warning. Show me again and I'll break your finger!” Amidst a dog-like scream, Javier lets go and signals Jade to get into the car to leave.

Rubbing his finger, Matthew wanted to answer but did not dare to speak. He simply raised his voice and roared after Javier drove hundreds of meters with Jade by his side, “Kersey, stop his car if you dare! I'll kill you!"

Condemning, Matthew pulled out his phone.

“Halo, Mr. Langdon. I need help..” In the car, Jade stomps her feet in frustration as they drive to the office.

"How could Matthew Odell be so embarrassing? We've agreed to a deal and he just broke it! ”

Javier's indifferent about it.

"That's normal. You just think it's too good.

“Tribal agreement is just a trick for him to force you towards Dunham. Since it doesn't work, of course, she will continue to use other tricks to achieve her goal of getting you married into the Dunham.” family

Jade now understood, but what could she do? When he asked Javier a question, he replied with a smile, “Marry me. This problem will then be solved once and for all.”

Jade glared at him and muttered with a flushed face, "Seriously."

Of course, Javier was just joking, but Jade being forced into marriage meant nothing to him. Odello Corp. was just a small thing, an inappropriate little entity made a fuss in front of him, so Javier was not worried at all.

"Don't worry. No one can force you to marry Dunham if you don't want to."

Javier spoke somewhat indifferently but his words quickly calmed Jade's anxious heart. From his point of view, Javier is like a man who bears all his problems. As long as he was around her, he had nothing to fear.

Tastes good. Great, actually. She liked. Hence, as he secretly stole a glance at Javier, there was an involuntary smile on his face.

Arriving at the office, the two of them continued their activities. Now that Beacon Tires has acquired Midnoon Tires, there is a lot to take care of. Javier also went to Midnoon Tires to discuss some things with Clement.

In the afternoon, he went out to take care of some other business. But just as he was about to jump into his car, two van—one on the hood of the car and another one in the trunk of his car—yer stopped, pinning his car in the middle.

The van door opened and more than a dozen thugs rushed out, surrounding Javier with sticks in their hands. Their leader, a man in his forties with a shiny bald head without a strand of hair and a plump face, looked menacing.

“Javier Kersey? Someone has ordered me to cut off your ears as a price of resistance. " Take your choice. Do you want me to cut left or right?"
