Semua Bab The Ace at the Apex: Bab 131 - Bab 140

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

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

Javier had initially planned to leave the next morning, but he stayed around since Andrew had to keep his promise by noon. When it was about time, Chessie received 800,000 dollars in her bank account and a call from Andrew.“Chessie, I got into a small misunderstanding with Javier last night. Consider this 800,000 dollars my apology to him…”Andrew made it sound very nice and tactful enough for both him and Chessie. It sounded like he would have taught Javier a very necessary lesson if it were not for Chessie.When Chessie asked Javier about what had happened last night, she received a kiss on the lips from the man as an answer. The man then called Herschel.“Andrew Kearsey. Make sure you make it clean.”He was paid to take care of somebody else’s problems. It made no difference to Herschel whether he had to go to battle with an AK or slit someone’s throat with a small blade. When it came to someone as awful as Andrew, he considered the elimination of the guy a favor to the neighb

Despite how much Jade did not want Javier to leave, he still left in the end. However, Jade did not try to keep him around because she knew a real man was like a kite flying up high in the sky. It was solely up to Jade whether she was skillful enough to control the line that flew the kite. In fact, she believed that she had already done very well, which was why she was able to see Javier off in a very gentle manner. Before Javier left, she even shyly said, “Honey, I’ll be ready for you by the time you get back.”At first, Javier still felt slightly heavy about having to leave Jade behind, but he immediately waved his hand when he heard that. “Forget it, there’s no way I’m going to allow myself to be tricked by you again. Do you think I haven’t learned my lesson yet after the many times you’ve tricked me?”Jade felt slightly guilty at that point. “I-I…That’s because I’m not ready yet!”That was indeed what she felt inside, as she had not gotten over her mental barrier yet.

Before Javier had arrived, he had already found out that the information about his father and stepmother was inside an underground room in the town hall. However, that very town hall was now under the control of armed rebels, so he was going to have to fight them with force. Fortunately, the town hall was only about three kilometers from where they stood, which was not too far away. On top of that, there were only approximately 2,000 men guarding the place, which was why Javier decided to take action that night.After he explained his plan to Levi and Gabby, neither of them had any objections.They had not been afraid of facing the 2,000 guards before either, but now that they had brand-new firearms, there was nothing for them to be afraid of anymore! On top of that, all the mercenaries were eagerly waiting to try out their new equipment, so everyone was in high spirits! This was extremely promising because it was the exact kind of atmosphere Javier wanted from them. Thus, Ja
