The Ace at the Apex Chapter 165 She’s a Decent Girl
Zephiel and Jade chatted a lot in the office. It was regular small talk without much meaning or reasoning. At least Javier did not notice anything important. However, after Jade left, Zephiel told him while sipping on his coffee, “She’s a decent girl.”Javier had no idea how Zephiel could tell. Perhaps it was true that one saw the truth in the most mundane matters. Maybe he was not as trained now, so he could not understand what the old fox thought and how he looked at things.Zephiel continued to speak. “Your instinct…has always been decent. Selena is a great girl too, so stop resenting her. Different environments result in different people, that’s it.”Putting the cup down, Zephiel reminisced.“I couldn’t figure this out back then, didn’t understand why people would change because of money. I asked your great-grandfather after that, and he replied with another question. He asked if I’d surrender if we were attacked by old enemies.“Of course I wouldn’t. I answered him without ev
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 166 Both Shameless and Despicable
Zephiel was slightly shocked by Mackenzie’s compliments.“Looks like this Jade woman is a pretty decent woman for you to even say something nice on her behalf.”Mackenzie shook his head. “I wasn’t saying something nice on her behalf. I really did send someone to look into her. She’s a competent woman who knows when she should go on the offensive and when she should stand back. Also, she understands that following Javier’s instructions would be in her best interest and she quietly supports him from behind. Out of all the people I’ve met, she’s very much like my grandmother, both forgiving and understanding. However, Jade’s probably got a much better life than her. Zephiel heaved a long sigh when he heard MacKenzie mention his grandmother. “Marilyn…really didn’t have her life cut out for her. Back when she was in Sammius, she would look through photos every day. Although she never once mentioned it, it was obvious that she was waiting for someone. But until the day she died, she ne
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 167 Society’s Scum
The trio headed for Zephiel’s old friend’s residence after Zephiel gave Mackenzie an address.It was an extremely large bungalow located in Old Medb, and it seemed spacious yet simplistic.However, a bungalow like that would be ridiculously expensive, costing about $10,000,000 for about 6,500 square feet. On top of that, the bungalow was located in an average part of Old Medb.If it were located in a higher-end area, the price would immediately shoot up to hundreds of millions, which was a terrifying sum.Of course, this would be terrifying only to most people. In comparison, a bungalow like that did not seem anything worth being surprised about to both Javier and Zephiel.After Mackenzie parked the car, he remained inside while Javier accompanied Zephiel into the bungalow. They met an old man who was watering his plants inside.The old man was about 70 years old with a bald head that reflected the sunlight. He was holding a pail in his hand as he watered what seemed like rathe
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 168 The Two Beggars
Zephiel burst out laughing in tears when he heard that he was being called society’s scum and a beggar.He then asked Javier, “Do I look like one?”Javier nodded in all seriousness. “Pretty much.”Seeing that Zephiel was about to kick him, Javier hurriedly added, “I look like one too!”Zephiel retracted his leg before it landed on Javier’s butt. However, Zephiel may have given up on kicking Javier, but Gigi had not given up on wanting to scorn the two Kerseys.“Heh, you seem to know your place and that you are a piece of trash. Since you know that you’re being a hindrance here, hurry up and get out of my house! Just the sight of you here makes me sick!”Javier replied, “If you’re feeling sick, you might wanna see a doctor and confirm whether you’re pregnant or not. Otherwise, it probably means you’re about to give birth already.”Gigi did not expect the “scum” to retaliate, so she was instantly infuriated. “I’m not f*cking pregnant! I meant me seeing scum like you makes me sic
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 169 The Insanity!
When the Maserati’s engine roared, Javier flung the fire extinguisher in his hand, and it landed directly on the car.The car’s front windshield was shattered to pieces with a loud “Clang”, causing Gigi to steer away from Javier. Javier could not even be bothered to step away throughout the entire ordeal. Instead, he just looked at her with his eerily cold gaze.Finally, Gigi stepped on the brakes when she saw that her car was about to slam against a wall.When she got out of the car, she charged toward Javier like a complete psycho, waving her long fingernails about like she was about to scratch him.In the meantime, her curses flew out like hot pancakes. “You f*cking beggar, how dare you f*cking destroy my car? I’m going to kill your whole f*cking family!”When she arrived before Javier, he merely raised his leg and sent Gigi rolling on the ground, shrinking like a cooked prawn. After that, Javier approached her and grabbed a lock of her hair before slamming her against Macken
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 170 Feel the Burn!
Gigi only felt that Javier’s insanity knew no bounds. It was like he had a huge death wish. Furiously, she looked at Javier, and her voice shuddered a little as she said, “Sure…Sure! I’ll get down on my knees if I fail to kill you tonight!“Also, you can f*ck off trying to take advantage of me! There’s no way I’m going to let you do it!”Gigi was so angry she almost coughed up a mouthful of blood. ‘You’re trying to have your way with me? You? Not a chance!’However, Javier could not be bothered to pay her any attention. Instead, he tried to understand the rules of the gambling table. “I just got here from a village, and we usually play with very small bets. What about you guys? Are the stakes high over here?”Meanwhile, the owner of Golden Jack, Michael Hill, made his appearance. Although Michael was new to casinos, he was an expert at gambling techniques.Previously, Michael had learned a few things from his teacher, an expert at cheating. Michael was also a smart man, an activ
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 171 Kill Him With Technique
Gigi had been anxious about why her street-fighting champion friends were not here yet, but her attention had unknowingly shifted to the gambling table.She now cared more about the bumpkin loser’s dumb begging face when he lost the $1,500,000. She could even imagine Javier kneeling before her and pleading with her in tears and snot.The more she thought about it, the more pleased she was. Gigi reveled in her imagination as she scoffed. “Stupid beggar, I’ll watch how you die in a while!”Michael gestured to Javier at the table. “I’m the dealer. You place your bet first.”Javier made an “oh” like he had never played before, gave it a thought, and threw in all $1,500,000.Looking at the tray of casino chips shoved forward, Michael was bewildered. It was normal to go all-in in Three-Card Brag—one would not look at the cards and bet like that purely on one’s luck. However, to bet on luck with $1,500,000, was the guy…dumb?Michael was not the only one who was dumbstruck. Gigi, who wat
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 172 This Is the Sense of Superiority
Gigi was panicking. She had embezzled $9,000,000 and put in $6,000,000 now. She was only left with $3,000,000. If her elder brother were to find out, he would break her legs directly.Michael was anxious as well. He had wanted to win with technique, but why the f*ck did he encounter someone who played with determination instead of technique today? No matter how skilled he was, what could he do when Javier refused to touch the cards? Technique could not fight determination at all.For his $4,500,000 laid on the table, Michael turned to Gigi and whispered harshly, “Transfer me the money!”Gigi looked troubled as she replied in an equal whisper, “I don’t have any more. I only have $3,000,000 now. I thought he was putting up an act, that $10,500,000 was about it. Who knew he’d throw in another $6,000,000? This is going over $10,000,000 now. Where would I get so much money from?”Michael wished to break Gigi over his leg more than ever like he would break a bamboo. Was she tricking him?
