All Chapters of The Ace at the Apex: Chapter 491 - Chapter 500

Jordan was released. No matter how insolent he had been outside, he didn’t dare to act the same way in the police station. He left the station after he dutifully and honestly admitted his mistake and wrote a repenting letter.Audrey asked in concern when they got out, “How do you feel? Jordan, are you hungry? Should we take you to supper first?”Audrey was truly a little overboard with her concern. It was not like she would treat her biological son like this—and it was exactly because Jordan was not her biological son that she was so nice and patient with him.She did not receive Jordan’s acknowledgment in return. “You freaking busybody! What does me being captured have to do with you? You could’ve let the police keep me inside if you're so good. I haven’t done anything. They’d have let me out without you poking your nose into this!”Javier thought there was no other way but to give Jordan a slap regarding his parasitic and ungrateful attitude. He did just that right after thinking

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

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,

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,

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
