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
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 866 A Loving Young Man
Bernadetta panicked, as though Javier was going to rob her of some precious gem or her own wallet, and she sprang off the bed and sprinted for the dishes like a released tiger.As Javier took in her swift pace and lightning speed, it was now his turn to fret.“Sh*t, you can run pretty fast, huh, you brat?! Bolt at his peak couldn’t even catch up to the speed you’re running at, don’t you think so?”“Uh…” Bernadetta stood rooted there awkwardly before she faked a squeal out of the blue. “No sh*t, I’m actually healed?!“I recovered just like that. This is a miracle!“Oh dear, you’ve done me a favor here. Just a jab from you and my foot recovered right away. You’re amazing!”Javier waved quickly. “No, I did you no favor. I’ve done no favor to someone like you.”Hah, a miracle? She had recovered just like that? Bernadetta was shameless! Javier was disgruntled, and rightfully so. What was this if not deception?That was what he had thought. How could her foot not heal after his treat
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
The Ace at the Apex Chapter 868 Miss Material Gurl
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 869 That’s Just How Generous I Am!
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

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
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
