THE BILLIONAIRE THEY NEVER SAW COMING CHAPTER 48
Valeria sat at her desk, flipping through reports, when her phone vibrated. A message. No name. Just an anonymous number.Her brows furrowed as she tapped on the notification. Several images loaded—grainy, taken from a distance, but clear enough to show Javier. His tall frame, the familiar cut of his suit. And beside him, a woman. The angles were frustratingly obscured, the shots all taken from behind. But one thing was obvious—Javier was not alone.Valeria’s grip on the phone tightened. Her pulse spiked with irritation and something dangerously close to panic.Her fingers moved swiftly, dialing the number, straight to voicemail.“Of course,” she muttered, jaw clenching.She inhaled sharply, steadied herself, and called Javier. Once. Twice. Three times.No answer.Her nails tapped impatiently against her desk as she dialed again.This time, someone picked up.But it wasn’t Javier.“Mr. Everhart is busy,” a woman’s voice, smooth and unfamiliar, answered.Valeria froze.Who—“Who is thi

A sharp pain pulsed through Javier’s skull as he stirred, his vision still hazy. The world felt off-kilter, like he was floating in a fog. His fingers pressed against the cool sheets beneath him. A bed. A hotel room.Something was wrong.The last thing he remembered was dinner with Adriana. The expensive wine. A polite sip. Then—nothing.Javier exhaled slowly, pushing himself upright. His head throbbed, but clarity fought its way through the dizziness.Then he saw her.Adriana sat on the edge of the bed, her dress disheveled, her hair in disarray. Her lower lip trembled, and her arms were wrapped around herself as if shielding herself from an invisible force.Her eyes flicked up to meet his, glistening with unshed tears.“Javier…” she whispered, voice broken. “You’re awake.”Javier’s stomach twisted with unease. “What… happened?” His voice came out hoarse.Adriana flinched, looking away as if ashamed.“You don’t remember?” Her voice was barely above a whisper.Javier’s jaw clenched. “

Valeria.Javier exhaled slowly, closing his eyes for a brief second.Adriana’s face drained of color. “N-no… she can’t—”Valeria’s voice came again, sharper, more furious.“If you don’t open this door in three seconds, I swear I’ll—”Javier rubbed his temple.Wonderful.His headache had just gotten worse.Javier sighed, rolling his shoulders as he glanced toward the door. The pounding continued, followed by Valeria’s unmistakable, furious voice.“JAVIER, OPEN THIS DOOR OR I’LL KICK IT DOWN!”Adriana panicked, grabbing onto Javier’s arm. “She can’t see me like this! If she does, she’ll—”Javier arched a brow, his expression completely unbothered. “She’ll what? Expose the truth?”Adriana’s lips parted, but no words came out.Javier exhaled, removing her grip from his arm with ease. His fingers grazed his temple, still feeling the remnants of dizziness. He had no idea how long he had been unconscious, but one thing was certain—this entire situation was orchestrated, and whoever was behin

Javier's smirk didn't waver as he leaned against the doorframe, his sharp gaze locked onto the two men standing just outside the room. Marcellus and Hudson, the masterminds behind this pathetic setup, had the audacity to show up now? How convenient.Valeria's breath hitched, her hands clenching into fists. "What is he doing here?" she snapped, her voice laced with fury as she glared at Marcellus.Marcellus, ever the performer, let out a mock sigh and shook his head. "Valeria, I came because I was worried about you. I knew something was off about Javier. I warned you, didn’t I? And now..." His eyes flicked toward Adriana, who was still trembling. "Now you see the truth."Javier let out a quiet chuckle, slow and menacing. "The truth?" He tilted his head slightly. "Tell me, Marcellus, which part of this mess did you rehearse the most? The fake concern, or the dramatic entrance?"Hudson, standing beside his son, scoffed. "Still arrogant, I see. That attitude of yours is exactly why you're
THE BILLIONAIRE THEY NEVER SAW COMING CHAPTER 52
The room was suffocatingly tense. The echoes of Valeria’s accusations still lingered in the air, and Adriana’s crocodile tears had long dried, replaced with nervous glances toward the door. But Javier Everhart, ever calm, merely adjusted his cufflinks, his sharp gaze unreadable.Outside, the hallway was filled with murmurs. The hotel’s prestigious guests, some eager onlookers, others opportunists looking for gossip, whispered about what they had just witnessed—Valeria Solano, the Solano heiress, storming into a hotel room with fire in her eyes, confronting the man she was supposed to marry.Whispers turned into hushed snickers.“The Everhart heir caught in a scandal.” “Guess the golden prince isn’t so golden after all.” “His engagement with Valeria is as good as broken.”Javier heard them. He simply didn’t react.That was, until Marcellus appeared, flanked by a few of his father’s associates, wearing his usual smirk that dripped of mockery.“Well, well, well,” Marcellus drawled, his
THE BILLIONAIRE THEY NEVER SAW COMING CHAPTER 53
The hallway remained suffocatingly silent.Javier Everhart had never been one to raise his voice or demand attention, yet here he was—standing with that ever-calm expression, his very presence demanding the respect of the entire room. The moment the man had kneeled before him, every whispered insult, every mocking glance had dissolved into fear.Marcellus clenched his jaw. He had spent years enjoying moments like these, watching Javier be dismissed as merely a composed, boring man. But now, something was wrong.Javier wasn’t supposed to have this kind of influence.Not him.Not while Marcellus and his father were working to rip everything away from Valeria Solano—including her company, her reputation, and her engagement.Marcellus quickly regained his composure, forcing a smirk. "Well, that was dramatic. What’s next? Are people going to start throwing themselves at your feet?" His voice was laced with mockery, but there was an underlying stiffness that Javier easily caught.Javier gla
THE BILLIONAIRE THEY NEVER SAW COMING CHAPTER 54
Everyone watched in stunned silence as the man remained kneeling before Javier, his head bowed in deference.Hudson Solano’s smirk had vanished, replaced by something dangerously close to unease. Marcellus, who had always taken pleasure in belittling Javier, now looked as though he had swallowed glass.Javier, however, remained composed. He gazed down at the kneeling man with the same calm indifference he had worn since the beginning."Stand," Javier ordered, his voice smooth but firm.The man immediately obeyed, rising to his feet with his head still slightly bowed in respect.Marcellus scoffed, though the edge of uncertainty in his tone was undeniable. "Who the hell is this? Another one of your pathetic lackeys?"The man turned his cold eyes toward Marcellus, and for the first time, it was Marcellus who shifted uncomfortably.Javier let out a slow breath. "Tell them who you are."The man straightened his suit before speaking. "My name is Rafael Montenegro. CEO of Montenegro Holdings
THE BILLIONAIRE THEY NEVER SAW COMING CHAPTER 55
Marcellus stood frozen, his eyes locked onto the small object in Alicia’s fingers. His normally arrogant expression was gone, replaced by something Javier had never seen before—pure, unfiltered fear.Hudson, too, had stiffened, his gaze flickering between Alicia and the item she held.Javier, however, remained as calm as ever. He observed the situation with mild interest, his sharp eyes catching every microexpression on Marcellus’s face.Alicia twirled the object between her fingers, her smirk never fading. “You look like you’ve seen a ghost, Marcellus.”Marcellus swallowed hard, his fists clenching. “Where… Where did you get that?”Alicia chuckled, slow and dangerous. “Oh, come now. Did you really think something this valuable wouldn’t find its way back to me?”Javier tilted his head slightly. “And what exactly is this?”Alicia turned her gaze to him, amusement flickering in her eyes. “Wouldn’t you like to know?”Javier’s lips curled into a half-smile. “I would.”Alicia let out a low

Hudson stepped forward, his boots striking the broken ground with a resonating thud, as if he were the harbinger of something far worse than even Lazarus' dark magic. His presence exuded power — unyielding and oppressive. Every inch of his being seemed like a force of nature, relentless and untouchable.Javier’s eyes flickered towards him, but there was no shift in his demeanor. The calm that surrounded him was like the stillness before a storm. He didn’t flinch. He didn’t even blink.Hudson’s voice was low and dangerous, a growl that echoed in the stillness of the chamber.“You’ve made your mistakes, Javier,” Hudson said, his lips curling into a cruel smile. “You think you can challenge me, the legacy of centuries? You’re nothing more than an illusion, a child playing at alchemy. Your power is a hollow shell.”Javier’s hand still rested in the air, his fingers twitching slightly as if ready to strike again, but he didn’t move. He didn’t need to.“I don’t play at anything,” Javier rep
CHAPTER 114
The titan tore itself from the last of the golden chains, its body surging with renewed, terrifying strength.Lazarus stood behind it, hands folded calmly behind his back, as if he had already won. His golden eyes never left Javier, gleaming with malicious amusement.Valeria gripped Javier’s sleeve tighter, feeling the heat of the battlefield rise. She could barely breathe, the pressure was so immense, but Javier… he didn’t flinch.He didn’t move.He simply stared.Silent.Calculating.Then, finally, he spoke — voice low and dangerous."You mistake survival for inheritance."The titan lunged, spear whistling through the air with monstrous force.Javier moved.One step.That was all.The spear missed entirely, embedding itself into the stone wall behind him with an ear-shattering crash. Before the titan could recover, Javier’s fingers flicked forward, almost lazily.A thin line of silver light cut through the darkness.The titan froze mid-motion.A crack, faint but unmistakable, split
CHAPTER 113
Javier moved at the last instant, evading the strike by mere inches. The shockwave flattened the nearby walls, sending debris spiraling into the blackness. Valeria covered her head, shielding herself from the raining stones.Javier stood unharmed in the eye of the storm.The titan turned its hollow, glowing gaze toward him again. Its massive hand wrenched the spear from the cracked earth and spun it with unnatural speed, wind howling around the weapon.A second strike came—faster, more brutal.Javier didn’t back down.Instead, he raised his right hand, fingers moving in intricate, ancient patterns midair. A low hum resonated from his palm, gathering into a thin golden sigil
CHAPTER 112
The world blurred into chaos.The floor swallowed them whole, but Javier landed cleanly, as if he had expected it all along. His boots hit the dark stone with a controlled thud. Around him, pieces of the collapsing building rained down, dust choking the stale air. Valeria stumbled nearby, coughing violently. Lucian and the others were nowhere to be seen—only distant screams and the grinding of stone echoed.Javier rose, dusting his coat casually.From the depths of the darkness, Subject Zero’s laughter slithered toward him."You fall into my home now, Everhart," the monster rasped, voice booming through the hollow underground. "Here, the rules change."Javier ignored the

CHAPTER 111
The room held its breath.Subject Zero stepped through the dust and chaos like a ghost given flesh. Seven feet tall, skin pale as wax, a twisted alchemical brand pulsing red-hot across his chest. His eyes—too human to be soulless, too inhuman to be sane—were locked on only one person.Javier Everhart.The guards raised their weapons. Lucian North scrambled back, nearly tripping over his own fear. Alric didn’t speak; he merely pressed his back against the farthest wall, trembling like a man watching a nightmare he once created walk again.“You,” Subject Zero rasped, voice deep and strange—as if several voices spoke through one mouth. “Everhart.”Javier didn’t move. His stance remained relaxed, one hand in his coat pocket. “I figured you’d come.”Subject Zero’s cracked lips curled into something like a grin. “They said you died. That the last of the alchemists was gone.”“They lied,” Javier said simply.Valeria grabbed his arm. “Javier—this thing—what is it?”He glanced at her. “A bypro
CHAPTER 110
“The Everhart bloodline should’ve been extinct.”Those words echoed through the sterile silence of the secret underground hall, the scent of dust and burning wires still lingering in the air. Javier stood before the council table, his expression unreadable. He had just dismantled half of Project Helix with nothing but strategy, silence, and the weight of his name.Across the room, Dr. Alric Mendez—head researcher of Project Helix—leaned forward, trying to mask the trembling in his hands with a condescending grin.“You’re clever, I’ll give you that,” Alric said, his voice gravelly. “But cleverness doesn't make you immortal, Everhart.”Javier didn’t respond. He didn’t need to. The moment his gaze
CHAPTER 109
News of Marcus Renshaw’s public humiliation had spread like wildfire through the business world, especially after footage of him being escorted out of the summit made its rounds online. Javier, as always, remained unbothered by the noise. He was already two steps ahead, focused on the deeper enemy—the consortium.Inside his private study, Javier reviewed encrypted files, eyes scanning faster than the average mind could comprehend. Alchemy wasn’t just about turning lead into gold. For Javier, a direct descendant of the ancient art, it was about transformation—of matter, of strategy, of power.Valeria entered the room without knocking, her presence calm but purposeful. "The contact from Zurich confirmed. The financial trail leads straight to Konstantin Sorel."Javier nodded slowly. "The head of Sorel Holdings. One of the consortium’s top financiers."Valeria crossed her arms. "You really think he’ll fall for the bait?""He won’t need to," Javier said, standing. "Because by the time he r
CHAPTER 108
Javier stood still, watching as Marcus Renshaw was escorted out by the security officers. His mind was already calculating the next step in his victory. Marcus might have been a nuisance, but Javier had anticipated every move. The tech world wasn’t kind to those who played dirty, and it was only a matter of time before Marcus’s arrogance caught up with him.Valeria’s voice broke through his thoughts. “You’ve already won, haven’t you?”Javier glanced at her, his expression composed, but something in his eyes softened when they met hers. “It’s not over yet, Valeria. Not by a long shot. Winning today was only a small part of a much larger picture.”Valeria gave him a questioning look, sensing there was more to the story than he let on. "What do you mean?"Javier’s lips curled slightly as he turned toward the exit, guiding her along with him. “The market may think Marcus is finished, but we both know this is just the beginning. There are more players involved — much bigger ones than Marcu
