The Ace at the Apex Chapter 23 How Dare He Humiliates Me With Money
Dressed only in his underwear, Kendrick swayed and writhed on the dancefloor, looking absolutely sultry. But really, he felt like crying. He wanted his mommy.As for Ciara, she made a call after exiting the place and stated the club’s name.“Yes, acquire the club and shut it down. Kick the money back to me and donate the guy’s sum to poverty-stricken areas to build schools and stuff. Keep an eye on it, don’t let anyone else acquire it.”Hanging up, Ciara got into a black luxury sedan and left without looking back. She called Javier on the way to tell him that she was going home and asked if he wanted to keep the two bodyguards.“Nah, I don’t need them. I’m not so weak that I need bodyguards yet. You behave and cause less trouble.”“Heh, I don’t have to cause trouble. I’m trouble herself.”The siblings chatted a bit more before Javier hung up and exited the club. As for Kendrick who was still on his “sexy” dance routine, he did not care and did not want to look.Not too long afte
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 24 You’re Too Optimistic
Kendrick had not given much thought about the money he had spent on the bottle keep as he was confident he could have it refunded. Never in his wildest dreams had he expected that the girl was so ruthless that she axed that idea head-on and would take over the establishment!“Then, what about the money I’ve put in?”“How does that concern me?”Before shoving Zack and Kendrick out the door, the manager added, “I’ll be the nice guy here. They told me over the phone that the club is to be shut down instantly and it’s enough to make about a million dollars from you.”Kendrick felt like he could die on the spot…Standing outside the club exit, he kicked the tree beside him in anger, feeling an acute sense of resentment over what Ciara had done to him.Zack suggested then, “Kendrick, let’s go to Javier and teach him a lesson!”“For what? If it weren’t your stupid idea, would I have gotten involved with that girl and got tricked?”Once Kendrick thought of it, he was infuriated. Instead
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 25 The Attitude for a Negotiation
Jade was skeptical about Javier’s claim to seal the deal with Grazin’ Tractors. Even though he had got Fusion Electric Cars to sign the deal yesterday, Fusion was unlike Grazin’ Tractors. The latter sold its tractors nationwide while Fusion Electric Cars was only known locally. They could barely be compared.She then advised, “I’ll go talk to them about the sales. As for the car, I’ll also—”“No need. I’ll go in the afternoon. It’s decided.”Javier never liked stalling and dawdling. It was how he always had been and that came across as aggressive sometimes. Jade was not quite used to such assertiveness but she did argue any further, thinking that what Matthew told her yesterday was more suitable to be said to Javier—business was not about a stroke of luck!She thought to let him run into the wall and experience how easy one could fail despite his brimming confidence.Later on, Javier warned Jade, “Keep your distance from Zack Dilley from now on and keep your guard up, especially
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 26 Played for a Sucker
Jade’s eyes were closed as she stood before the window in her office, mulling over how she was going to get Javier’s car back through Odello Corp. No matter how she thought about it, it seemed that she could only play the pity card and ask for the old folks in the company to consider her late father and help her ask for the car back. It was just that she was uncertain if she had that kind of sway over them.It was troubling. Jade even felt frustrated about her appearance. If she had been born uglier, she would not have run into so many issues.The door to her office was thrown open as she was busy fretting over this and in came Javier. He casually tossed the key of the G63 onto the desk. “I got the car back. It’s in the parking lot and I already got someone to clean it. You can drive it from now on!”Looking at the car key on the table, then at Javier’s nonchalant expression, Jade was befuddled. The thing that had given her a headache and had even made her feel powerless only took
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 27 The Almighty One
Larry checked himself after getting out of the car, trying to look as calm as he could before reentering the office building, lest his coworkers noticed something was wrong.After letting the man leave, Javier sat alone in his car and made a call. About ten minutes later, his phone rang again. The display showed that it was Ciara who was calling.“Javier, I’ve found the casino you asked me to check out. It’s a cheap, dodgy place. I did as per your instructions too and it’s reported back to me that the person in charge of that little casino listens well.“He’s already deleted all information regarding Larry Keeton and has prepared the initial capital to return to Larry and has even added 150 thousand dollars as a token.”Javier thought that it was a great move as he could give it to Larry so he could treat his wife’s cancer.“Right, Javy, so other than these, I think you’d be interested in something else about that casino.”Ciara went on to tell him that Matthew Odell, Kendrick’s
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 28 Acting Dumb Again
Furious, Kendrick went through his family connections and contacted Grazin’ Tractors’ director, Nathaniel Graze. When they met, he exposed Larry’s embezzlement and how he had lost all that money. Nathaniel was wrathful when he heard about it. Someone from Odello Corp. had personally paid a visit to inform him, so the accusation must be true. The director asked the finance team to check their accounts immediately.While the audit was being done, Nathaniel summoned Larry into his office to Kendrick’s accusations.“Larry Keeton, you’re doomed. Go pack your bags and wait to be sent to jail!”Larry furrowed his brows at Kendrick’s gloating.“Mr. Odell, I don’t understand what you’re saying and I don’t know when I’ve offended you.”Kendrick scoffed. “Acting dumb, is it? Sure, go on and act. The truth speaks louder anyway. Save your tears for later!”Larry did not retort and stood there quietly, composed like his name would be cleared, as if he was innocent, to begin with.About half
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 29 The Chamber of Industry and Commerce Dinner
Jade thought that Javier was only saying those words out of anger, so she did not take him seriously. And the truth was, the man looked like he had done nothing either. It had been one and a half days since the issue of the three manufacturers kicking their order back had cropped up, but Javier was still driving around leisurely. She even heard that he had gone into Clouston City and bought a pot of flowers back.Jade did not have the brainpower and was too embarrassed to care. The man had invested 1.5 million dollars and had become the biggest shareholder, as well as pulling two major business deals in. How was she supposed to boss him around?Hence, the job of running around to prove their tire quality passed the mark became her task as she wished. It was one hectic job.The next day when the workday was about to end, Jade proved not quite fruitful that day and returned to the company. Just as she entered her office, she saw Javier fiddling with a white jasmine plant.“Ms. Odel
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 30 Javier’s Retaliation
Zack had already figured it out. It was his reality that he would never get his hands on Jade, so he might as well ruin her and cling to Kendrick. After all, a man had to want something. Since he was unable to lust after the woman, he would lust after the money!His intentional sabotage made Parker, who had just picked up his wine glass, drop his glass back on the table with a thud.“What’s the matter with Beacon Tires? How could you be this despicable? Quality is how you gain a standing in the business world. What are you guys trying to do?“Tires, especially. They’re so very crucial to vehicle safety. How many drivers would meet harm on the road and even lose their lives because of the problematic tires you made, have you ever thought about that?!”Parker went on to fire off a tirade at Jade as Zack occasionally added a comment here and there, to fuel the fire and make the flames burn even brighter. Jade tried to explain herself several times but was unable to interrupt Parker’s
