CHAPTER 26

  Inside his office, Javier tapped his foot on the side of his large desk.

  He poured himself a glass of Don Julio 1942 and took a seat in the middle of his office. Smirking, he swirled the tequila in his glass.

  “Fuck everything,” he says. “Why should I be the one to be concerned?” he grumbled. “They treated me like a fool the whole time, and I’ve been carrying this weight for years. Why should I be the one to assume the role of a saint?”
