Semua Bab The Ace at the Apex: Bab 211 - Bab 220

The car zipped through the asphalt, the driver and passenger occasionally engaging in light, but no less sensual, teasing. Nothing serious came out of it, though—certainly not any passionate grinding.The drive from Medb to Ferris Sky was not a long one, but locating Cillian’s house took a lot more time than one would expect. Before standing before his entrance, Javier could not believe why a renowned artistic virtuoso like Cillian Nolan would live in that modest neighborhood built about a decade ago. It was such a run-of-the-mill place that there was virtually nothing too different from a normal person’s residence.When they had to stop and ask a few senior citizens hanging out at the lobby to double-confirm Cillian’s address, the crowd answered in a tone not unlike that of a person talking about their common neighbor.As Javier climbed the stairs with Dana, he could not resist asking, “Mr. Nolan has earned quite the fortune…right?”Dana thought for a moment. “Well, he’s doing pre

Lloyd had not wanted to attend the press conference but he came after mulling it over. The reason was none other than his wish to show up in front of the cameras and relay a message to Javier: Perhaps Javier could squash him easily on many levels, but Lloyd still had the final say in show business!Representing his company, Lloyd picked up the pen to sign his name on the contract while the four popular celebrities signed theirs respectively. From then on, their management company would be working under Lloyd’s media company.After a round of applause and cheers, the four popular celebrities went up on stage to perform respectively, singing and dancing. Although they did a bad job at both, everything else was fine. That did not stop the atmosphere from being merry.Chad opened a folder to retrieve some documents and got up with the intention of making the press conference merrier, but Javier stopped him. While Chad was confused, Javier took the documents from him and got up to look a

Jade had been so distracted recently that she was not even as invested in her work anymore. Even though she was still busy all day long, she didn't even know what she was so busy doing.Javier had not called her for three consecutive days. She had received a call a day previously, so this unsettled her, as she wondered if her husband, who rarely settled, was thoroughly captivated by some vixen and had long forgotten about her.While she thought about it, there was a knock on her door. Jade quickly tucked her thoughts away and smoothed her hair before saying, “Come in.”She lowered her head and signed a document with a pen, asking without looking up, “Yes?”There was no reply. Instead, the newcomer walked closer to her directly.Jade frowned, wanting to see who was brazen enough to barge in and walk all the way up to her without saying a word, but her cherry lips were kissed once she looked up. She panicked immediately and grabbed her pen to attack the person.She did not care who

Lloyd was so shocked that he almost dropped to his knees. ‘8-8…8 billion dollars? I knew that Javier was a rich man right from the moment he said he was going to spend 300 million dollars on Reivaj Media.‘But I only estimated that he’d be able to mobilize around 1.2 billion dollars at most. Combined with his company’s original capital, it should be sufficient to handle the stock exchange snipe. After all, the two companies aren’t focused on the media industry, so there’s no way he would be able to obtain even more capital.‘I would never have thought that Javier would say he’s going to spend 8 billion dollars right out of the gate. Plus, he made it seem like he’s being rather stingy about it.‘Just imagine what he’d give if he wasn’t being stingy…How much more than 8 billion dollars would he have offered?!’Lloyd thought that it all seemed too far-fetched and surreal to him. In fact, he could not help but suspect Javier was actually just bluffing. However, when he saw Mary Jan

On the other hand, when Javier told Ciara that he was so busy with work that he could not celebrate Christmas back home…he did not mean it. In truth, he had never celebrated it before. Meanwhile, Jade could understand that Javier had never thought of celebrating something like this. All she asked was that she stay by Javier’s side. Thus, the two of them had never celebrated Christmas before. However, they stayed at the office until very late that day, so they ended up getting something to eat on their way back.As they ate, Sam Langdon gave Javier a phone call. “Where are you, Mr. Kersey? There’s something I would like to ask your help with.”‘It’s so late at night. What sort of help could he possibly need?’Without reading too much into the matter, Javier gave Sam his address. After hanging up the phone, he carried on eating his dinner with Jade.However, while the two of them were eating and chatting merrily, a young man in his 20s walked over and brought a chair with him.
