The Ace at the Apex Chapter 493 You’re Still Bullying Me
Javier was not just saying that. He followed it up with his action. It was just that Audrey glared at him when his hand came into contact with her tights-clad legs.“Can you have some self-respect and stop bullying me? Don’t you feel like you’re a beast sometimes? Not caring about anything and just wanting to take and own?”Javier laughed. “You’re indirect as well. You might as well call me an animal!”Audrey rolled her eyes. “I didn’t say that, although what you think is a tiny bit right.”Javier wanted to quip, but Suzanne came down to the bar. After greeting Audrey, she asked, “It’s all taken care of?”“Mn, it’s done. Nothing much left.” Javier nodded.Suzanne made an “oh” sound and turned to Audrey. “Lady boss, can I have a glass of wine on the house?”Audrey chortled. “Good one, Ms. Quinn,” she said while she poured Suzanne a glass of wine and then left the bar with an excuse.After Audrey left, Suzanne pinned Javier with a jealous gaze, so the latter asked purposely, “Wha
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 494 I Hate You So Much
Javier was only saying that. He did not do it.He passed the glass of warm water to Audrey after pouring it for her. Audrey’s reflex was to get up and accept the water, but her stomach was still in pain.Javier told her, looking at her pained expression, “I asked the doctor earlier. He said you’ll still be in pain for three to five hours after waking up. No definite duration as it differs for different people, but it’s not anything to worry about. You don’t have to fret over it.”Javier’s explanation reassured Audrey. She thanked him again after helping her drink some water.The man did not care about that. He was more concerned about what Audrey had done to have eaten her way to the hospital, to which the latter replied embarrassedly, “The weather’s hot, and I got greedy. I had a lot of cold things, so…”Javier made an “oh” sound and said no more. As both of them chatted, and it being at night, they managed to bring their conversation to the bed, and that was that.This part f
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 495 Temporary Friends With Benefits
Reivaj Group had always emphasized benefiting the people, so it would not sell the drug as expensive as 6-8 thousand dollars. Even if it were 300-500 dollars, it was cheap, but he would still not have enough!The patient was worried, fretting that the 150 dollars in his pocket would not even be enough for the doctor's consultation. What was more, an injection.The truth was, he had overthought because he managed to have both the consultation and was jabbed after that. When he went to pay, he even discovered that the shot only cost 80 dollars.It was out of this world. Everyone’s budget was around 700 dollars, and he had only brought 150 dollars in cash because he was poor. Yet, one injection only cost 80 dollars. He could not help muttering in wonder if the medication was fake.Still, the drug was no heavenly pill. Whether it was effective or not would not show an immediate result. According to the doctor, the patient could only go home and wait to check the efficacy after half a m
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 496 I Will Not Let You Live
Doug immediately understood what was happening. He was smart enough not to have to be told too much.This was because he had suddenly realized a problem through Javier’s words. ‘If some country with a significant force backing them up were to have their eyes on this medicine someday, It’d be a huge problem for us.‘Rather than letting this happen, we might as well ally ourselves with other countries and send them the benefits of our own accord.‘I’ll give you the benefits you want, but I decide how much you receive.‘On the contrary, if I were to wait for you to try and steal it from me, you’d be the one to decide how much you steal or whether you would even leave anything for us.‘So Javier’s making a brilliant choice by keeping the commanding power in his hands.‘This isn’t just about working together with a particular force, but all of them.‘If we were to ally ourselves with all the countries, who could dare to interfere or even try anything stupid behind our backs?’Thus,
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 497 Frustration
Javier had been selling his products overseas for a very long time, and a lot of people knew that the price of the vaccines overseas was 8 thousand dollars.In other words, the foreign medias’ reviews of Javier were that he was a devil, a heartless businessman.More specifically, they were complaining about how the price difference was just so great, with it being so cheap to Chineans but ridiculously expensive to foreigners. However, this joke of an expert was blatantly lying on television! Javier was enraged to the point he wanted to find out just who this expert was and what his intentions were.In the end, before Javier even needed to investigate, the host of the television show himself could not tolerate it any further. “Do you not like it when your own country is doing well? Do you despise it when there’s a businessman with a kind heart in our own country who’s producing medicine for the right price? I’ve got in my hands solid proof that this vaccine is being sold to for
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 498 An Accident
Doug suddenly gave Javier a call, saying that the research center’s lab was on fire!‘Are you f*cking kidding me!?’Javier had been extra careful to prevent something as destructive as a fire from breaking out in his facility. Just the safety measures and firefighting equipment he had invested in cost him millions of dollars.In fact, the facility should have been so safe that the fire alarm would have rang the moment someone lit a cigarette inside, making the place even safer than trains and planes.Hence, Javier was now feeling frustrated that the lab had caught fire under such a scenario, a big fire, for that matter.Javier immediately put on his clothes and left, even asking Suzanne to follow him before he left.He wanted to find out whether Suzanne had anything to do with this accident. However, when Javier mentioned this to her in the car, Suzanne immediately went mad with rage, even cursing at how useless the security at the research center was.‘Judging by her reaction,

Now that the fire had been put out and the perpetrator had been found, this entire incident reached a dead-end for the time being.The police expressed that they would look into the deceased and give Reivaj Group a satisfying answer based on their findings as soon as possible. At the end of the day, a huge corporation had suffered colossal losses after someone had deliberately started a fire in their territory, so nobody was happy about what had happened. After the police left, Javier gave Herschel a phone call, asking him to look into the perpetrator’s family.‘How else would the perpetrator be able to walk to his own death after committing the crime unless a member of his family was being threatened?’After giving Herschel instructions, Javier began arranging for his men to calculate the amount of losses he had incurred by going through all the equipment.After working away busily for a few hours, they were able to come up with a preliminary sum of almost 500 million dollars,
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 500 Who in the World Is He?
After Javier had given Herschel his instructions, Mackenzie suddenly gave him a phone call as well.Mackenzie had always been in charge of dealing with the less-legal affairs within the family, so he was extra sensitive about situations like these.However, he found out about what Javier had just gone through from the Whites, surprisingly…“I was originally planning on sending men to pursue the Whites, but I ended up finding you instead. The Whites are also looking into this matter.”“The Whites are looking into this as well?”Javier pondered for a moment and understood what was going on.‘I’m sure the Whites are planning on finding out who we’re dealing with first. They would be paying attention to whoever this hidden force attacks and then grab onto whatever little lead they might be able to grab ahold of and beat them up first so that they won’t get targeted in the future.’“Fine, they would actually be of great help to us if they’re willing to get involved.Now that the Whi

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

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
