The Ace at the Apex Chapter 49 What a Bully
Matthew was taking care of Kendrick in the hospital and telling his son about how Jade had completed the quarterly deal. Kendrick had yet to find out that he would be wheelchair-bound for the rest of his life, thus was unbothered and unruffled that he had the time to think about making others suffer.“Since Jade has completed the deal, we don’t have to target her business dealing from now on—”Kendrick was speaking when Matthew cut him off. “What do you mean we don’t have to? Of course, we have to. It's necessary that we do so!“What do Jade and her mother depend on for their livelihood currently? Beacon Tires, no doubt.“Think about it. If they don’t have Beacon Tires, how will the two of them survive?”Realization struck Kendrick. “I understand what you mean now. We will be taking away their livelihood when we bring down Beacon Tires. When they’re unable to survive and we Odells don’t provide them with any support, Jade can only send herself to the Dunhams!”Matthew wore a vict
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 50 The Reassurance He Brings
Matthew knew nothing about finances. Similarly, he did not understand how Odello Corp. was being targeted financially when the company was not even listed. The deputy finance director explained everything to him, but it all sounded like a foreign language to Matthew. He just could not be bothered to digest it.“You’re the expert here. I’ll leave this to you. I’ll trust whatever you suggest!”The deputy finance director was quite moved. “I won’t let you down, Mr. Odell!”After the vow, the deputy finance director suggested that Matthew pull back all the corporation’s funds in order to face a possible incoming and bigger finance attack.Matthew sent out the order at once to direct back all the funds that could possibly be pulled back. His secretary asked softly from the side, “Mr. Odell, those stockpiles of raw materials for tires, they make up quite a substantial amount.”On one hand, it was the life and death of Odello Corp. On the other hand, it was tearing Beacon Tires apart. Al
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 51 Do You Have a Death Wish
After the financial sniping incident, Matthew suspected that Beacon Tires had something to do with the incident, as it was all too much of a coincidence. However, Mary Jane had already made plans for someone else to take the fall—under the pretense that a minor company had somehow been the instigator of the entire incident. By doing so, Odello Corp. would have no way of linking this incident to Beacon Tires. There was no way Matthew was going to let Beacon Tires off the hook despite not being able to link the two together.Over the next month, he coerced Odello Corp. into using all kinds of extreme methods to pressure Beacon Tires. However, all of these attacks were easily handled by Javier, rendering all of Matthew’s efforts moot, causing the latter to be extremely furious. At the same time, the young Dunham, who was the person pulling the strings from behind the scenes, was feeling frustrated as well.Judging by the man’s tone during their conversation, Matthew could tell tha
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 52 Javier’s at the Height of His Life!
At Javier’s question, pin-drop silence fell over the party.Dick stood before him, his eyes emanating a look full of scorn. “What’s wrong? Do you not like what I said? Are you going to hit me just like you did all those years ago? Come on then!“If you dare touch a single hair of mine, I’ll send people to hound you and make sure that you end up dead! Go ahead! Try me if you dare!!!”Despite how arrogant Dick was at that moment, he did not dare do the same to others of their group because most of them came from wealthy families with decent careers and a certain amount of influence behind the scenes. However, he thought that Javier was just a useless piece of trash that he could mock over and over again without any fear of backlash! Right at that moment, someone suddenly crashed the party! A clean-looking, handsome man rushed in with a fresh bouquet in his hands. “Hello, my dear female schoolmates! It’s me…Zayn Dunham!”Zayn was one of Javier’s schoolmates and the biggest dra
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 53 Making the Right Decision
On the way back, Javier questioned Jade about her prior actions and the reason she’d called him “honey.”Jade then explained, “You’re the one who sent me a text saying that you were having a reunion with your former schoolmates here and would be back home late tonight. That’s why I came over. “I thought that reunions usually involve people criticizing one another. Also, I know that you’re a man who prefers to keep a low profile, so I was sure that you would be one of those being criticized. Considering how much you’ve helped me in the past, I thought I’d come over and make you look good!”After saying that, Jade turned to look at Javier with a smile. “Hurry up and thank me!”Feeling flabbergasted, Javier chuckled and said, “Thank you.”“You’re welcome!”‘She’s really pretty when she smiles. I can feel my heartstrings being pulled whenever I see her like this…’Javier thought that this matter would end now that the reunion was over and nobody would bug him anymore. Alas, that
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 54 I’d Rather Die Than Marry Him!
Javier was surprised by Zayn’s sudden appearance but did not think too much about it. In his eyes, Zack, Kendrick, even Zayn, made no difference to him. All three of them were like insects and vermin in the face of a giant elephant—they would all be squashed in the end. After hurling the luggage out of his window, Javier carried on working without any emotions going through his mind. However, half an hour later, someone arrived at the office once more. This time, the person in question was not there for Javier, but for Jade. The newcomer glided across the shiny floor tiles, her high-heeled shoes making loud tapping noises as she rushed into Jade’s office. Not even Jade’s secretary could stop the woman. When Jade’s office doors swung open, the secretary hurriedly tried to explain the situation to Jade. However, the woman stormed forward and landed a tight slap on Jade’s face, leaving the secretary stunned. Jade rubbed her burning cheek and told her secretary, “Leave us and c
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 55 Her Second Uncle’s Love and Care
Zayn’s face turned ashen when he saw the 180 in the netizens’ discussions. As his hands shook, he made a call. “I want the internet to be wiped clean! Now! I don’t care how much it costs! I want all the information about me deleted! I’ve already f*cking said, everything needs to go! Including my confession this morning! All of it!!!”After hanging up, Zayn upended the table in front of him, sending all the plates crashing to the floor. “Who was it? Who was it?! Who leaked that information about me on the internet?! That f*cking b*stard!!!”Zayn’s rage went on for more than ten minutes before he finally calmed down. He sat down and fumed some more, muttering to himself under his breath for another five more. He then pulled out his cell phone and gave Matthew a call, still muttering to himself. “I can’t let this happen. I must make Jade see that my feelings toward her are genuine! I must make her feel that and not let this negative information affect her…”When the others return
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 56 A New Boss Is Coming to Town
Zayn made two more calls after that, but Jade spurned all of them. She was just about to shut her phone off to keep him away when she saw a new message from the man. His words seemed to be dripping with concern.‘Reject me all you want, but do you really want to see your grandpa’s life’s work ruined at the hands of incompetence personified?’It was a hit below the belt that plunged itself deep into Jade’s chest, right where it hurt the most.She had grown up with Grandpa since she was just a child, so the depth of their emotional bond could not be underestimated. It hurt her to see Odello Corp., the very thing her grandfather had devoted his soul to, be torn down to ruins at the hands of her useless uncle.That was why she had to do it. She had to become the leader of Drakon Real Estate.“—which doesn’t change a thing! Just because I’ve assumed leadership, it doesn’t mean I’m beholden to him. If he thinks he can make me marry him, well, he’s got a better chance of dreaming about i
