The Hero
Chapter 53 Making the Right Decision



On the way home, Javier questions Jade about her previous actions and why she calls him "honey."


Jade then explained, “You're the one who sent me an SMS saying that you're going to have a reunion with your old school friends here and will be home later tonight. That's why I came.


“I think reunions usually involve people criticizing each other. Also, I know that you are a man who prefers to be humble, so I'm sure you'll be the one being criticized. Considering how much you have helped me in the past, I thought I'd come and make you look good!


After saying that, Jade turned to look at Javier with a smile. “There's your gratitude!”


Feeling surprised, Javier chuckled and said, “Thank you.”


"Together!"


'She is so beautiful when she smiles .. I can feel my heart trembling every time I see her like this ...'


Javier thinks that this will end now that the reunion is over and no one will bother him anymore.


Unfortunately, it's not the end, but the beginning of more problems ...


The next morning, Javier was checking some documents in his office when someone knocked on his door.


"Trs. Kersey, there's someone here who wants to see you. She said that she is your former schoolmate and she brought a suitcase with her.”


Javier feels this is a bit strange…


Since these guys are Javier's former schoolmates, Javier doesn't think he has any reason not to see them.


Not long after, the voice of a man stomping his feet sounded as he entered Javier's office.


When Javier looked up, he was really surprised to find out who that person was. He originally thought it was someone who had just returned from abroad, but to his surprise, it was actually Zayn!


Before Javier could speak, Zayn interrupted.


"You can't possibly think that I'm here to ask you to work, right?"


Looking at the Armani dress that Zayn wore, Vacheron Constantin on his wrist, and the special leather shoes he wore, there was no way Javier would have thought so.


Zayn took a step forward and picked up the suitcase he was carrying before dropping it on top


Javier's desk with a loud voice.


Based on the noise, it looks like the contents of the luggage are very heavy. 'I want to know what's inside.


Zayn just pulled up a chair and sat down.


"I believe you should be smart enough because you can be the deputy general manager, so you probably won't be wrong." - WEB."


Zayn took out a pack of cigarettes and lit it. He then inhaled before opening the trunk, immediately revealing a suitcase full of cash, a true sight to behold.


However, Javier seemed unfazed by the scene in front of him and suddenly recalled Dunham's last name.


He leaned back in his chair and said, "I didn't realize that you were the young man from Dunham that we were looking for  ."


Zayn nodded. “Looks like I didn't judge you wrong anymore. You're really pretty smart. That's right, I'm Zayn, young master Dunham. So, are you willing to take 150,000 dollars before you resign from Beacon Tires?


"Of course, this is on condition that you won't approach Jade again."


After saying that, Zayn observed Javier with a smile, silently waiting for his answer.


Unfortunately, Zayn did not expect to get the response he wanted. All he got from Javier was a silent look.


Therefore, Zayn looked at him for a moment and added another condition. “You can come to my family business and work for us. We will pay you double.”


Zayn is very generous with offering Javier double his current salary, whatever the amount. But that's not what Javier wants.


Javier replied, "I doubt you'll be able to do it."


Zayn is giving off sarcasm. "How do you know I wouldn't be able to realize your wildest dreams if you didn't tell me?"


Zayn thought Javier wanted more than what was offered, but that was not the case, obviously…


"I want you out of here."


Javier's statement instantly removed the smile from Zayn's face


Zayn stared at Javier in silence for a while before he said, “Actually, I have always been humble. Unlike you, men who prefer to set things up on purpose to look humble when they are not!


*As I said, I prefer to keep a low profile.why? Because I felt no need to show off my wealth! My own presence will make me look famous! I am an existence that you will never be able to reach, so I will be the one to bring Jade all the way to the top!


"But you can't do that! You'll just drag him down and be a burden to him. You will be like a stubborn little goat who refuses to leave him. I'm sure you understand what I'm trying to say, right  ?"


Javier calmly looked at Zayn. "You done yet?"


"I'm done talking, but I haven't finished taking action."


Zayn stood up, walked to the window, and looked down.


At that time, there was a white Ferrari 488 car for more than 600,000 dollars with heart-shaped roses around it. Beside the rose were white petals that formed the words: I love you, Jade Odell. I want to be with you for the rest of my life.


In addition, there were also hot air balloons hovering in the sky.


A pair of children, male and female, who looked to be about five years old dressed in clean white and kept spreading flower petals in the air. There is also an LCD screen next to the hot air balloon with the words “Marry me, Jade Odell  . I swear I will make you happy forever !” blinked on it.


All of these combinations make Zayn look like a complete show, which is in stark contrast to what he just told Javier a moment ago.


Zayn knocked on the window and waved at Javier. “I think you should come and see. I'm sure this will surprise you. In fact, you will realize how small you are after seeing it. But I think this is a good thing, because that way you will learn about your real place in life.”


Javier couldn't see it, so Zayn pulled out his phone and recorded the entire scene before showing it to Javier. "What do you think? Romantic, isn't it?”


Javier looked at Zayn. "That's a good spectacle you made there."


"You're like a fox saying that the grapes he can't reach are sour, but that's understandable."


After saying those words, Zayn closed his suitcase and turned it to face Javier. "Now, take the money and go!"


"Don't you think there's too little money here?"


Zain smiled. “That's the taste you have there. Okay fine! I'll put in another 150,000


dollar. You'll get it when you get out of here. ”


However, Javier just leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs. "Is that all that Dunham's extended family has?"


"No, it's the same value!" Zayn patted Javier on the shoulder and headed for the door.“ My dear former schoolmate, you have to make the right choice. You are not doing this for me but for yourself — save yourself from the shame of a lifetime. ”


Zayn is very proud and confident.


However, right after he reached the ground floor and stood in front of his Ferrari, his suitcase suddenly fell from the sky as he was about to enter.


And it crashed landing right on top of the car, broke, and the money in it flew everywhere.


Zayn raised his head and looked towards the office upstairs with a smile on his face. However, it was a threatening and dangerous smile.


“Good... I'll make sure you squashed like an insect. Otherwise, you won't know where you are!”
