For the rest of those two months, Javier went nowhere. He stayed in Medb, researching the Grimoire of Five until he finally understood the powers of his eyes. He possessed superhuman powers because of them, though not exactly like the powers of superheroes in movies. He could look into the future and see danger. He could even predict what might happen. Javier had not tried to put his new superpowers to use because he was more worried about something else. Where the hell had Kaiser gone?! He tried to contact Kaiser every now and then, but he never picked up. He could not find him by contacting people who were supposed to be around him either.Javier was dead sure that this had something to do with the Raiders. He took his suspicions to Suzanne and laid them out in front of her. “I wanna know who’s the new target of my supposed cover. Please don’t hide anything from me—tell me everything you know, or we’ll be in a world of hurt very soon!”Suzanne understood the gravity of the situ
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 799 I Will Prove My Abilities
Javier spent every day of that week with Lara. The young woman was very kind, even after what Javier had done to her, so she chose to stay with him simply because she pitied him for shouldering so much pressure. A week was enough to kindle genuine love between them anyway. By the time Lara had really fallen in love with Javier, the man was ready to leave again. “Give working here your best shot, okay? Buy whatever catches your fancy too. There’s no need to hold back. I’ll leave you enough money,” he proclaimed. “I have a very important mission that needs to be done. I’ll look for you when it’s over! If you’re still single by then—if you’re not seeing anyone—then you’ll be my girlfriend!”He kissed Lara hard, took a deep breath, and climbed into his car. He left. Lara held her cheeks go hot, and her tongue was tied as she tried to say goodbye. She did not want money or formally being anyone’s girlfriend. She just wanted what he had told her to be real—that Javier would come back, a
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 800 Kids Like Showing Off
Joey set up a trap for Javier on purpose, wanting to drive him away by using 15,000 dollars. Evanna was upset. She could understand that Joey was doing it for her sake, but she did not like it.“Mom, you’re just picking on Javier now. How could he possibly…”“Okay, three days. I’ll place 15,000 dollars that I’ll make on my own on your table!”Well, Evanna was pushing Javier away from the trap, only for the latter to hop in voluntarily.After a moment of stupor, Evanna asked, “Javier, are you thinking straight? How will you make 15,000 dollars in three days? Do you know how much that is? You’ve got to make around 5,000 dollars in a single day, and you’d have to make over hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Why do you have to do that?!”Do what? It was only 15,000 dollars.Although Javier had no regard for money now, making it was not a challenge with The Grimoire of Five that he had currently mastered.“Bluffing buffoon!” Evanna left, slamming the door after her last comment
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 801 Jinx Master
Wilson rushed out of the office with his men before he could dwell on it, dashing to the accident site.Joey stopped, standing rooted there in shock, as she could not understand how an accident could have happened when they were just tearing down a washroom. Wholeheartedly hoping that there would be no casualties, she tossed the folder and hurried out of the office.When she passed by Javier, however, she glared daggers at him.“You unlucky man. You jinxed this and brought us bad luck. Would something have happened if you hadn’t made sh*t up?!”Javier scoffed. He had warned them that the excavation could not go on, but he had become a jinx now.In spite of this, the accident had already happened and this argument was pointless. He hurried to the excavation site as well.There was a washroom at the southwest corner of Aurora Academy, but students rarely used it since it was far from the classrooms and the dorms. Joey had planned to renovate and turn it into a pond to improve the s
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 802 Javier, the Bona Fide Master
Wilson was stunned. He had just entered the shed from the outside, and one more man had gotten buried? Were they planting carrots out there?How many years had it been since workplace safety had been emphasized? Accidents on construction sites were mostly superficial wounds nowadays. Why did it feel like they had been cursed today?Was this a jinx? Bad luck?Wilson looked at Javier in astonishment, only for the latter to sneer, “Go on and cry, you fool!”Wilson, who was insulted right in front of his workers, was not even angry, as his priority was to save the victim. He rushed out of the shed to orchestrate the rescue.Javier could not see what was going on outside, tied as he was in the shed, but he could guess most of it based on the noises they made.The person buried this time was the excavator driver. The arm raising the bucket of the excavator while he had been working just now had gotten jammed, so he had come down to have a look. Unexpectedly, the bucket had dropped sudd
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 803 The Cursed Construction Site
Javier was in the backseat of the Mercedes-Benz S450 while Wilson chatted animatedly with him.The chauffeur was bewildered. He knew that the young man was the good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Dennisons and the chairman looked down on him usually. Why was the chairman acting so obsequiously around the young man today?The chauffeur could not figure it out, but he thought that he could become a chairman too if he did understand why.When they had almost reached the restaurant, Javier’s phone rang and Evanna’s name started flashing on the screen. Once the call was connected, while Javier had yet to speak, Evanna’s voice came from the other end of the line.“Javier, you’re the man now, huh? Got a temper now, is that so? I criticized you a bit, you’re not coming home for dinner?”The speaker was a little loud, so Javier felt kind of awkward that Wilson was hearing the conversation. Before he could say anything about it, Wilson grabbed his phone.“Hello? Evanna? I’m Uncle Wilson.
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 804 Don’t Let Him Drag You Down
Javier did have a solution to dispel the bad luck and negative energy there, but he believed that Wilson would not accept it.Wilson was skeptical and kept questioning him, so Javier told him ultimately, “Get 500 workers, and I’ll put up an Ehta Drakos for you using concrete to forcefully balance out the energy level there.”“500 construction workers? I don’t need that many men to build a tower!”Wilson went silent when he thought of the salary of the workers and the construction fees for the concrete and everything else. He refused to relent, though, and asked, “Is there a way to save a little more money or not spend a dime?”Javier lit a cigarette and leaned back against the chair as he answered, “Sure, have someone die there.”The Soul Flame of someone who was unlucky enough to die in an accident would make the negative energy dissipate and burn away.“Resume construction work and wait until someone dies there. It’ll be fine then.”How could Wilson use this approach when it w
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 805 The Rapping Master
Javier was pulled off by Wilson as soon as he exited the bathroom, leaving a stunned Evanna in the living room.Hasty footsteps were heard next as Joey hurried downstairs. When she was on the last step, she took the time to smooth out her clothes and hair before she made her appearance in the living room. With a beaming face, she said, “Wilson, it’s not nice for others to see you come to see me this early in the morning. I think it’s better that you meet me in the office next time. We’ll—Eh, where’s Wilson?”Joey looked around, but there was no Wilson there.Evanna spoke up from the side. “Mom, stop being vain. He was here for Javier, and they both left.”That was awkward for Joey. She had spent all that time dressing up for nothing. Despite that, she did not understand. “Why was Wilson here to meet Javier this early in the morning?”Evanna replied weakly, “Who knows? And he talked to me as though I was trying to sabotage him.”That confused Joey even more, as she had no idea wha

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

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
