The Ace at the Apex Chapter 127 I’m Not Going to Let Anyone Else See What’s Happening
Javier and Ciel boarded an ordinary commercial flight after they met up. Ciel was sleeping very soundly on the plane, probably because she was tired after having fun for so many days. However, Javier did not get much sleep because there was a question bugging his mind the entire time… ‘Why didn’t the old fox send Mackenzie out to investigate if he already knew where Dad and my stepmother were long ago?‘Mackenzie clearly doesn’t know about this piece of information. Otherwise, he would have said that he couldn’t tell me about it rather than that he hadn't been able to find anything.’This made Javier find the entire thing very strange, and he felt as though there was something that not even the old fox could tell him. After pondering this for a while longer and still failing to make any sense of it, Javier gave up and decided to look into the matter instead. He sent Ciel home after they got off the plane and called Mackenzie, who said right after the call was connected, “Mr
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 128 A Piece of Trash
Even though Chessie had already done it with Javier before, she still could not hide the blush on her face and the sensation that made her feel as though she was afloat. However, she was still a veteran member of society at the end of the day, so her answer to such flirty questions would always be unique. “I got punched by someone right here like a sandbag. Just look at how swollen they are now…Would you like to help me soothe them?”Javier immediately held her up by the waist upon hearing this. It was not until Chessie began to struggle continuously that Javier finally released her. After tidying up her slightly messy clothes, Chessie changed the topic and said, “Let’s go get something to eat. I’ve already made arrangements for you.”“Sure, you’re paying anyway.”Javier wrapped his hand around Chessie’s arm, making himself seem like the lady, while Chessie was the man causing the woman to laugh coquettishly. “Sure, I’ll take you out for something to eat. But you’re going to
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 129 We Meet Again
Fortunately, Chessie managed to beg for mercy in time before Javier went on to have another bout of love with her. As for the paperwork for the land that Javier was supposed to buy, Chad had a friend who was in the process of taking care of everything in the meantime. There were three days left before the bidding for the land would begin. Therefore, since Javier did not have anything better to do, he chose to accompany Chessie for those three days. Out of Jade, Chessie, and Ciel, Javier felt sorry for Chessie the most. This was because Chessie was a very strong woman who would not ask for anything. Not only did she not want money or power, but she did not even want men protecting her. She was so stubbornly strong that she did not want to be protected by men even if she faced a huge crisis. However, the more she behaved this way, the sorrier Javier felt for her and the more he wanted to make it up to her. Thus, Javier had been by Chessie’s side the entire time with the sol
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 130 Javier, the Country Bumpkin?
The bidding immediately began with someone raising the price by 80,000 dollars, which was, of course, expected. Immediately, someone yelled out, “80,000 dollars!”With two consecutive raises, the original price of 3.15 million dollars was almost immediately raised to 3.31 million dollars, which was a terrifying sum. It was Chessie’s first time participating in a bidding war of this sort. When she went, she initially thought she was going to be there for a leisure trip. However, she was now feeling slightly stunned after seeing how much money was being flung around here and there. On the contrary, Javier did not seem to be fazed in the slightest. Although he had not participated in a bidding war before, that small amount of money meant next to nothing. It was akin to a common passerby stumbling upon a nickel on the floor. In such a case, the common passerby would not even think twice about picking up the nickel before carrying on with their life. This was because, in their ey
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 131 Unmatched
They had thought that Javier was only a bumpkin from some small-time company and had even suspected him of being a troublemaker, but they now realized that that was not true at all—Javier was there to make sure Andrew went down!Each time he placed a bid, it was targeted at Andrew, and he was still increasing the price in folds now, baffling everyone.The land that had started off from 3.15 million dollars was now at 6.62 million dollars. The way the price had doubled with an additional 10% was aggressive!Chessie was startled by Javier’s bidding. She could not help poking him again and reminding him softly, “It’s 6.62 million now!”Andrew, who saw Javier and Chessie whispering to each other not too far away, understood the situation. That bumpkin boy toy must be pandering to Chessie and borrowing money from her!Chessie was a force to be reckoned in the mafia world, but everyone knew that she was only involved in the sex work field of the gambling, drugs, and sex business. She wa
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 132 If We Fall, We Fall Together
That was 11.1 million dollars—11.1 million dollars!Andrew surrendered. No matter how rich he was, he had yet to reach the stage of considering several million dollars nothing. He truly was unable to stay as composed as Javier was.As the sound of the gavel rang out, the plot of land successfully went to Javier.Applause erupted from the venue as people congratulated Javier for winning the land and pandered to this wealthy man. The guests felt like their horizons had been broadened today, as the world of a rich man was indeed different from theirs. Compared to Javier, they were akin to poor farmers.Even the bureaucratic big shot had gotten up and gone down the stage to congratulate Javier.“Young man, thank you. Thank you for making a great contribution to our town’s charity. Everyone here will remember you!”After thanking him courteously, the big shot looked at Andrew. “I hope you’ll keep your promise.”Andrew was incredulous. What kind of attitude was that? He had promised t
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 133 I Don’t Know How to Fight
After dinner that night, Chessie headed out with her underlings to take care of some business—a negotiation with a certain boss. Javier wanted to join her, but Chessie rejected him because they could not afford the appearance of an unfamiliar face.Looking at her composed mien, though, Javier knew that nothing would happen to her. He did not worry too much after they parted ways and asked Herschel to hang out with him.The hotel dinner could not quite satisfy his appetite, as he felt like having some street food. This worked in his favor since he could have a beer with Herchel and chat about the latter’s past. They had known each other for a long time now and had never talked about it. Hence, Herschel briefly introduced himself as they had some street food.“My family didn’t do well when I was young, and I was pretty flippant. They had a military recruitment base in our area, so I enlisted. I actually did quite well in the army and got myself a master who was the champion of the mil
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 134 That’s All You’ve Got
Javier had never seen Andrew as anything worth his effort, for the latter was too insignificant to be regarded as such. That said, Javier would be damned if he did not repay the gesture since Andrew had offered himself as a gift tonight.It was just that someone seemed even more impatient. Javier had just gone up to Andrew when Herschel dashed forward. There was no way Javier could allow this. This was the only dummy left. If Herschel took him out, Javier would lose his only chance to loosen a limb or two.While Javier and Herschel were ready to fight for the dummy, Andrew surprised both of them. He moved so swiftly that when he lifted his arm, there was a pistol in his hand. His movements were smooth too, as he loaded the gun with his left hand the moment he pulled the weapon out.“Try and take another step toward me. Come on!”As the dark gunpoint was staring back at him, Herschel paused. He was impatient but he was not reckless.Andrew spat, “F*ck, weren’t you so good just now?
