The Ace at the Apex Chapter 858 Cheering for His Benevolence
David nodded enthusiastically. Now that he finally aired his grievances, there was nothing bugging their relationship anymore. The sincerity in Javier’s tone helped, too—less so than the fact that he made good arguments, plus pure, domineering power on his side. In the end, David made a solemn promise affirming Javier’s proposition and promised to never attempt something like this again. With that out of the way, the two engaged in some light chat before Javier left the mansion. Javier was none too pleased with Daniel’s no-show, but it was beyond David’s control anyway. He did not deserve a glare, so Javier smiled the whole time, even as he was about to step out of the door. Only he himself could tell how genuine that smile was.There were precious few things he could do in light of this event. One was to continue manning his investigation party. The other was to wait. For how long? Javier had no idea. He was never good at waiting. It made him restless. Thus, he ordered another
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 859 I Think You’re Alright
Herschel bought a motel. Instead of purchasing a place where fresh vegetables would have more uses—a restaurant, a hotel, some such—that idiot bought a motel. What the hell was a motel going to do with all these vegetables? Check them into the rooms? Put them in vases?Javier was rendered speechless, but it was less of a problem than he initially thought. It became Herschel’s perfect cover while remaining in this city—a development he was clearly very proud of, considering how he could now tell everyone he owned a business. Javier was not in the mood to humor him, so he hung up the man’s call. Evanna was shocked to see him bring so many vegetables home that night. She was unsure of the purpose of buying so much food.At first, Javier smiled and said nothing. Evanna kept pressing, however, and finally, he revealed his kind deeds. A smile broke out on her lips as she cooed. “I knew my husband is the kindest guy ever!”Javier flashed her a smile before a follow-up. “What do I get
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 860 Stop Being a Busybody
When the curtain of the motel was pulled open, a beautiful woman walked in.She was 25-26 years old with gorgeous features on an oval face. She wore a white short-sleeved blouse with a black skirt that reached her knees, as well as a pair of bejeweled high-heeled sandals, exuding the elegance of an office lady. She looked even more like a secretary with the blue folder held in front of her.Javier had only assumed that the pretty woman was here for a stay and was going to get up and greet her out of courtesy, only for the latter to speak up with a smile first as she extended a fair dainty hand. “Hi, I’m Florence Tinsley from the Nanscity office of Bao Forum for Asea (BFA).”Javier was a little bewildered, wondering as he held the soft, warm hand in reflex. Did BFA have an office here in Nanscity? He had never heard of it. Moreover, why was a representative there here in a small motel of his? She was not trying to ask for a discount with her status, was she?If that was what the wom
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 861 Why’d You Accuse Them?
Javier actually felt his heart drop in shock when the man said that. Fights and slashing could hurt people, and they happened frequently, even though they were not a daily occurrence. Threatening to blow the inn up so carelessly, though, was simply savage!Javier dared not act recklessly as he looked at the middle-aged man and contemplated it.Was this revenge from the person he had beaten before?As Javier was deep in thought, it felt like a silent provocation to the middle-aged man. His right hand, which had been in his pants pocket since he had come in, was slowly pulled out solemnly. His gaze was menacing, making him look like a stray dog baring its teeth.“Looks like you won’t be scared if you don’t see it for yourself!”Javier, who was shocked, immediately related the threat to a remotely controlled bomb. The guy was a f*cking lunatic. He had not even said a word, and the man wanted to f*cking blow his inn up!With one hand on the bar to support himself, Javier flung himsel
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 862 The Kerseys’ Violence
Javier drove the car to the 4S shop after taking Evanna to the academy. Edna called while he was driving, asking if she could move in the day after tomorrow.“They had a meeting, and the houses will be picked according to the sequence of the demolition when we move back. That’s why I’m moving in such a hurry. Please excuse me, Javier…”Edna sounded incredibly apologetic and embarrassed when she explained.Javier did not mind, of course. He had already decided to rent the place to the mother and child, so it would make no difference whether the move took place in the morning or at night. He then asked on the phone if Edna needed help moving.The woman said that she had a younger cousin who ran a moving company and would help them. Javier was glad that he would be free in that case.Edna was still thankful about his kind gesture and sincerely invited him to a meal at her place at night.“I’m so thankful that you rented the place to us and offered to help us move. I feel indebted to
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 863 This Car Seems Familiar
When Javier arrived home, Evanna was taking a shower, while Joey had already gone to bed. He was in a good mood, especially when he saw the sexy lingerie Evanna had placed outside. He knew that this was going to be another good night.Unfortunately, he received a call from Herschel while he fantasized about it. It was already very late, and Herschel would not call him if it was not something important.As he’d expected, Herschel gave him some great news the moment the call was connected.“Boss, you’re awesome. Good deeds are always repaid!”Javier did not understand what Herschel meant, but the latter explained after he asked.He told Javier that he had received a call from his subordinate while they had been investigating Daniel and had realized that Daniel had a first love—Edna Monroe.“Boss, you surely have no idea that this Edna Monroe is the same Edna Monroe that you saved…”Javier paused. Well, being kind had its rewards. He had just seen that as casually lending a hand, a
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 864 Bunny at the Inn
While Javier complained in his mind, Florence suddenly asked about his purpose for visiting the orphanage. He made one up on the spot. “I saw an article about the orphanage previously and felt sympathetic, so I thought I’d pay a visit. But I was in a hurry and forgot to bring anything. I’m going to the mart to get some things now!”“Oh, you’re really such a kind, generous soul!” Florence complimented him with a grin and easily passed over three big bags of snacks. “Hold on to them. Just say you bought these!”Javier was slightly embarrassed. “No way, you bought them!”“Doesn’t matter, it’s the thought that counts. They’re for the kids anyway. It’s the same no matter who brings them.”Florence invited Javier into the orphanage warmly after that and briefly introduced the orphanage as they made their way inside.This orphanage was the oldest one and had once housed over a hundred orphans during its peak. There were only a little over ten children left now because the others had gone
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 865 Don’t Take the Dishes Away
Javier was speechless while looking at Bernadetta’s lecherous expression. He knew that the person looking for him was Florence, but he could not understand why Bernadetta was acting like a lustful thug.“Why’s a girl like you more shameless than me when commenting on the same sex? Do others know that you’re actually a lecher?”“Pft, you don’t understand. It’s exactly because we belong to the same sex that I make more precise, direct, and to-the-point comments!” Bernadetta explained her way out of her thuggish language and asked, “Oh, she isn’t your girlfriend, is she?”Javier shook his head in denial. “No, just a friend.”Bernadetta looked like she had expected the answer, but there was a hint of glee in her gaze. Although she had slept with Javier, she was not his girlfriend. She seemed to be interested now, but she feigned nonchalance.“That’s what I figured. How could a pretty girl like that be your girlfriend?“I don’t mean to insult you, but look at your face—you’re a budget
