The Ace at the Apex Chapter 145 Mop the Floor With Him
Edna skidded toward the office like a fired bullet, her speed causing one of her heels to be kicked away in the dust. Unfortunately for her, even her arrival did not stop Javier from entering. In fact, he took this chance to spite her! That b*stard tossed her an irreverent wink, as though he was a…a flirt!Edna was infuriated. What kind of savage had she just met?! What a pr*ck!The chairman was going to fire her for sure, right?Javier’s attention moved on from her and into the chairman’s office. There was another man inside the room—a foreigner with a rather severe mien whose left cheek was marred by a long scar. Terror seemed to ooze out of it like miasma.In stark comparison, Samuel Lambert looked like a soft-spoken gentleman. With a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, he actually looked like a news anchorman more than anything else.The moment Javier kicked the door open, the foreigner shut his customized laptop. Samuel also got to his feet and leveled a frigid glare at

Javier’s phone rang just as he left Mary Jane’s office.“Old MacDonald had a farm…”The familiar ringtone had not rung for years, but now that it played so suddenly, it felt familiar and tender. Despite that, the old fox’s tone contained no fondness when Javier answered the call.“You brat, well done! Do you think your family money comes from a windfall? You spent 10 billion dollars just like that. You don’t feel a pinch because it’s not your money you’re spending, is it?”Javier was speechless. He knew that the old fox would not call him for no reason, so he retorted, “It’s just 10 billion dollars, isn’t it? You don’t even know how much you’ve made, yet you care about this 10 billion dollars? Did you only understand the real meaning of being a miser at this age?”The old man went quiet upon hearing his retort, taking a few seconds before he replied, “Indulge me. What kind of grand plan are you plotting now?”Javier explained halfheartedly, “Someone mocked me for being poor and I

It had been more than an hour since the iridescent passion drew to a close after reaching its exhilarating peak.Cleaning up in a haste, Jade quickly pulled her clothes back on. She recalled the moment when the two of them had signed the agreement in the office several months ago.Back then, she had even thought that Javier was a lecherous thug, that she would not let such a man have the chance to get close to her this whole time. She had added an additional clause in the contract to mock him too.Who could have thought that the two of them would be so deeply in love with each other today that they had even done something like this in the office in broad daylight? It was embarrassing.Unable to help herself, Jade turned to gaze at Javier with love brimming in her eyes.“Darling, you’re amazing. I really wish I could stay with you and never have to part like just now for the rest of our lives.”Like just now? Like how? While the two of them had been doing that?Going back to the

After asking someone to keep an eye on Samuel, Javier saved the evidence he currently had. He wanted it all in detail, though. Since terrorism was involved, he might as well go all the way and find out everything.He uploaded a new task on the black market to find evidence of all the people and acquaintances who had worked and partnered up with Samuel, including proof of Samuel’s own crimes, as well as clues and evidence about the terrorist organization related to him. After all, terrorism was a global enemy right now.Prior to this, his fight against Samuel had been on a personal level, but it had quickly escalated to national security now.The Kerseys stayed abroad, but the first line of the vow that each family head had to recite before taking over the position was “The Kerseys are forever and always Chineans”.Now that terrorists were involved, Samuel was the enemy of the nation. There was no way Javier would allow him to keep existing.After saving all the evidence he had for

After hanging up, Chad, who had been rather delighted, felt embarrassed. He was, after all, in Mary Jane’s office with Javier next to him.Speaking of him, it was Javier who had urged him to say what he had. Otherwise, there was no way Chad would have said something that shameless right in front of another woman, let alone Mary Jane.Pocketing his phone, Chad shook his head weakly without saying anything. He suspected that there was an 80% chance this was a bust. He had thought that the girl was quite pretty and had spent the last two days thinking about her, but all hope was lost now that Javier had forced him to say that. He had no chance now.Javier begged to differ. “McCool, my man, don’t worry. The girl will say yes. Sammy-Blue Inc’s only been down for two days, and she’s already impatient to jump ship. This girl’s very ‘adaptable’.“Instead of skirting around the issue with her, you might as well be upfront and give her a price lest you get into more trouble in the future,” J

When Samuel arrived, Javier did not pay attention to him. Instead, he made his subordinate frustrate the guy first. Samuel was furious. He had expected to suffer in indignation and annoyance during this visit today, but he had not imagined that he would experience that in the hands of an unknown small fry of an employee before he could meet Javier. He was positively fuming.If this had happened two days ago, he could have made the employee get on their knees with sheer money. He could not do that now. His pockets were empty. Even the pack of cigarettes he had on him had been bought at the gas station using the prepaid card he had previously loaded there. Thankfully, the gas station had accepted his card. Otherwise, it would have been hard for him to even come here.After the trouble he went through with the employee, Samuel finally got to sit down in the reception room. Feeling his throat burn with rage, he gestured at Edna, his secretary. “Edna, get me a glass of water.”There was

Samuel did not have the luxury of time. He could not wait for Javier to be done with his Rubik’s cube, so he got straight to the point and said, “Mr. Kersey, I’m sorry for what I did previously. It’s my fault for failing to recognize who you are. I hope you will be able to find in your heart the kindness to spare me.”Javier paid Samuel no attention and carried on tutting as he looked at the information he had received via email. “Mr. Javier, I was wrong to say that you would never get the chance to see me begging you in your life. I now discarded all my dignity to come here and beg for your forgiveness, so I hope you will be able to do so on account of my sincerity.”Javier still paid Samuel no attention. It was obvious that he did not care how sincere Samuel was being. Forcing down the anger he felt inside, Samuel kept on begging for Javier’s forgiveness multiple times, seeming very sincere about it as well. However, Javier still did not seem to be moved. Finally, Samuel coul

Jade could not figure out for the life of her why Javier was holding such a huge grudge against Samuel. In fact, she felt frightened as she saw the intense murderous intent coming from Javier, which she had never seen before. She grabbed his arm and said, “Honey, honey… Calm down. There’s no need for you to feel angry because of a person like him. It’s not worth it.”“A person?” Javier scoffed mockingly and pointed at Samuel, who was lying flat on the ground. “Tell me, do you think you’re worthy of even being called a person?”Samuel could not say anything because he was suffering from an excruciating amount of pain due to his jumbled internal organs.However, he still wanted to beg for mercy. Samuel’s main focus was to get out of that place so that he could ensure that Javier would not live through the night.In fact, Samuel wanted to light Reivaj Group up in flames with everyone in it! However, as he was filled with all those evil thoughts, he suddenly felt a chill running

The Ace at the Apex Chapter 875 What Is This Four-Legged B*tch Trying to Do?
As Bernadetta launched a barrage of kicks against the restaurant door, Mrs. Greene summoned 120% of her strength, holding the fort. The older woman had made a living terrorizing others with absurd accusations and downright unreasonable demands, but this time, she had met her match. Bernadetta James put the “man” in the word “woman”—in that she resorted to violence as soon as things escalated. In the end, it took both Mrs. Greene’s apology and a deal to provide Javier and Bernadetta with three days’ meals, all free of charge, to make the young woman stop. Then—“because I actually have a weakness against people sincerely appealing to my better angels,” according to Bernadetta—she amended the peace offer, changing the three days’ free meals to…a week’s worth. Back in the inn, Javier expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Bernadetta for rescuing him. “I can’t thank you enough for standing by my side when I needed it the most, Bern. But I can thank you a bit more if you refrain from using t
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 874 I’m Having Meatballs Tonight
Mrs. Greene opened her flap and unlocked the floodgate, the spit during her tirade so profusive that she could water an old lady’s lawn. “It’s him, officers! It’s all him! He did this to his own camera just to remove himself as a suspect, but we know better than that! He’s the guy who stole my goddamn lingerie!”She turned and trained her finger on Javier. “You vile, disgusting, degenerate piece of sh*t! Ptooey!”‘Back at you! I'd rather spend the night with my left hand than with you!’ By this point in the morning, Bernadetta had arrived at work. Her heels clicked onto the floor as she sauntered toward the commotion. As soon as she heard what had transpired, she laughed, looking clearly amused. She trained her perfectly manicured finger on Javier and piled on. “Oh, it was him. I can testify to that! He stole Mrs. Greene’s bra because he is…the Lingerie Phantom Thief! By day, he is Javier Kersey. At night, he is Jo Ker, the Bra Stealer!” Javier threw his arms up in exasperation
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 873 I Didn’t Do This! I Swear!
Javier shook his head. By the time his vision was back to normal, the dog was gone. It had escaped! “What kind of hell spawned this little sh*t?!” Javier wondered to himself aloud. “Was this really an effect of the world changing? Is this an example of mutation because of the Storm? Or is there something else at play?”Baffled and unsure what to think, Javier returned to the dorm and told the residents to open the door. Inside, he found Florence huddling the frightened kids closely. She was white from fear, and yet in the presence of vulnerable kids, she had assumed the role of the protector without a second thought. “Hush, it’s alright! It was fake. Someone pulled a terrible prank and put on this white sheet and…” Javier made up a fib to explain the haunting away exactly because the truth could land him in a mental institution. No one would believe him—and for good reason too!Javier drove Florence back to the Yuzuian restaurant, where the latter’s electric scooter was. While
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 872 Honey, I’m Not Crazy, This Dog Is Magical!
A resentful wail—interspersed only by sobs that sounded more like someone was being strangled—was echoing in the middle of the night while Javier and Florence could not see even a single soul out there? Animated by the power of “hell, naw!”, Florence dove into Javier’s arms for protection. Her hands were clasped firmly on either side of her head, hoping to block out the ghastly demand in her ears. Her eyes were squeezed so tightly shut that even a crowbar could not pry them open.Javier himself was just as terrified. He would have felt better if he could see the source of the voice rather than just hear a woman sobbing about getting her head back. At least he would know what he was up against! But just hearing it without any visuals at all?! Nooooope!Then, Florence hugged him in a “help-me!” sort of way. She was soft and supple—damn, that sexy figure in combination with her silky-smooth skin sure was welcoming. She was warm, and damn did she smell good! Nothing competed with fea
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 871 Hypnotized And In Too Deep
The dog barked in protest as it pointed its paw at Javier with the intensity of a mob before executing a monarch. The flames in its eyes were so bright that they could incinerate Javier into ashes in milliseconds. In the end, though, all that protest was for naught. Constance tied it up in the parking garage, while Javier watched in glee. Ah, sweet, sweet revenge! The stupid dog had thought it could set him up, had it? That would teach it!The look the Pomeranian shot him almost felt like a threat: ‘Just you f*cking wait, hooman!’‘Wait for what? How much can a stupid b*tch like you do to me?’ Javier scoffed in his mind. Now that the four-legged pest was gone, Javier turned back to Constance and talked about the new orphanage. As it turned out, despite the old woman’s sentiments for the building she had founded, she was a lot less obstinate and unreasonable as she might appear. “I mean, I don’t object to it completely. I know the new place is gonna be better, but…” She faltered a

Florence called half an hour later to tell him where they’d be having dinner. After leaving the inn in Bernadetta’s care, he hurried to the venue. Florence had picked a newly-opened Yuzuian restaurant. Javier had never liked Yuzuian restaurants, but since Florence had invited him, courtesy stopped him from asking the woman to change their meeting venue. He found Florence quickly enough and sat across from her. They placed their orders, and Javier began his performance: He started sighing and doing his best to look forlorn. It intrigued Florence enough to ask what was wrong, and Javier told her about his unfortunate beef with Constance that day.“It’s so unfair, man! Why would I bully a dog for no reason?” he moaned. “I’m sure Aunt Constance misunderstood. You’re a knightly, heroic, kind man! How could someone like you possibly get off on hurting a dog? I’m sure Aunt Constance was just too worried about the dog’s welfare to think things through. She didn’t mean it. I can vouch for
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 869 That’s Just How Generous I Am!
Herschel was dressed quite sharply today. It was the full ensemble—black leather shoes, black slacks, a white collar, and last but not least, the good old oil-slicked hair. The typical look of a high-ranking office worker, just as Javier had requested. Ordering him to get in his car, Javier asked, “You brought all the stuff I told you to?”“Yo, I would never forget the stuff my boss told me to bring. I’ve got all the preparations down pat. You can check ‘em if you don’t trust me,” Herschel replied. He fished an ID and some documents out of his leather bag. “See? All the documentation a journalist in the most important room of a news agency would have.”After a round-check and some instructions, Javier sent Herschel on his way to complete his mission. The man was strangely reluctant, though. “Boss, you told me you decided to work in that inn, right? Does that mean, you know, that you’re gonna call me ‘boss’ while you’re there?”Javier had almost forgotten he had mentioned this. It

Javier’s suspicion turned to Constance Hellman’s white Pomeranian. He turned to the director’s office and met the dog’s eyes. With its paws on the windowsill, it hoisted itself up to look out of the window. Seeing the dog cracking a lopsided grin and baring its fangs—beaming as smugly as a teacher’s pet who had managed to subdue everyone through the power of being the boss’s favorite—made it look both amusing and chilling. It would have been had the dog not caught Javier’s gaze, suddenly dropped the smile, and put on a face that seemed to be saying, ‘I’m just your average dog! Nothing to see here!’And then it feigned—yes, feigned—a yawn as its one last measure to cover up the fact that it had been laughing smugly to itself. ‘What. The. Actual. F*ck?!’ Javier thundered in his mind. ‘B*tch’s a natural actress! What’s it doing here instead of being interviewed on a talk show after becoming viral on TikTok?’In combination with Russell’s report, the incident inside the director’s of
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 867 This Is One Dramatic Dog
As Javier was befuddled, Constance rushed in from outside and picked up the white Pomeranian gingerly to carefully check its injured leg.“Oh, baby, what’s the matter? Did you hurt your leg?”The white Pomeranian whined in pain and began twitching upon hearing Constance’s concerned question. This upset Constance so much that she admonished him sternly. “Mr. Kersey, I thought that you were a loving person, but I can’t help doubting your motive now.“I’m skeptical about you taking good care of the kids here when you’d even hit a cute dog!”Javier felt extremely offended. When had he hit the dog? He hurriedly explained, “Madam Hellman, I didn’t do anything!”Constance asked angrily, “You didn’t do anything? Why would it suddenly limp now and whine so pathetically? Why did it hurry over to me? Give me a reasonable explanation!”Javier was in distress as well. “How would I know? It was fine when I was carrying it just now, but it wanted to get down on the floor, so I carefully placed
