Semua Bab The Ace at the Apex: Bab 781 - Bab 790

Iseult could not believe it. Javier had to be making sh*t up. The Raiders could never have done something like this. But Javier produced his phone and showed her evidence. All the evidence showed that it was the Raiders. The reason why this village was going through such a terrible time was because of the Raiders. Iseult was filled with disbelief as she looked at the evidence. She could not believe this was real. But the evidence was so real and completely undebatable in its veracity that she mulled it over for a few minutes and said, “Either my adoptive father knew nothing about this and this is all the work of his underlings, or he knew and authorized it because it will serve a greater cause and far greater people. A country as beautiful as the one we envision will inevitably require some pain and sacrifices. That’s what it is!”Javier cracked a smile filled with both amusement and contempt. On what grounds did she think her adoptive father could spill blood and still be a noble

At the sound of that, Javier turned to face Iseult. Before he could say anything, she shook her head hard and recanted, “No, that’s impossible. I cannot have been wrong, and my adoptive father even less possibly so. I mean, just look at you and your people! You’ve worked for nothing, and yet you possess as much wealth as the GDP of an actual nation. If your wealth could be shared with the masses, just how many people would live decent or even great lives? Instead, all that wealth is concentrated in your hands alone! “This is inequality of wealth, pure and simple. And it’s the existence of people like you who are the biggest cause of it!” Javier laughed. He turned on his side and looked at her. “Now, even if I spread all of the Kerseys’ wealth around the world and everyone got what they could, do you think it would change their lives substantially? No. They would be happy for a few days, and then life would go on. But if I alone hold all of the Kersey’s wealth in my hands, I can do

Then, Javier asked Iseult about the Raiders. He was not explicit about it, only vaguely directing the conversation toward the organization.Just the start of this discussion, though, caused Iseult to answer awkwardly, “Sorry, my adoptive father raised me after all, and this is a favor I owe him. Even if he wants to kill me now, I can’t hate him or betray him.“I told Herschel about the Raiders’ local base, so consider this my explanation to you.”Javier was speechless, not at all expecting Iseult to resolve the issue like this. What was a small local base worth? What he wanted was the big fish, the Raiders.Despite that, he could understand Iseult’s way of repaying her adoptive father, even though he did not want to accept it. It was normal. In her shoes, he would not have betrayed his adoptive father either. That was why he was understanding and did not mention the Raiders to Iseult in the time that followed.Herschel came to report the outcome at around 11 p.m, when Javier’s w

Jeremy was brazen. It seemed like he was the king and god of the hospital, and no one could do anything to him.Despite that, Grace would not yield to him. She could turn a blind eye when he harassed the nurses usually, but he could forget about doing that to her today. She was Javier’s woman now!Therefore, as Jeremy approached her and cursed, she swung a hand and slapped him into befuddlement. It had not ever crossed Jeremy’s mind that Grace would hit him. She had actually hit him!“You f*cker! No one in this hospital has ever dared hit me. Who do you think you are?!” Jeremy swung his fist up with the menace of a tiger, but Grace retorted right away, “My boyfriend’s the chairman of Parrson Group, Javier Kersey!”As the heir of a mere hospital, Jeremy, and even his father, would not dare offend Javier. Jeremy apparently hesitated when he heard this but raised his fist again instantly.“Javier Kersey? So what? He’s nothing but a piece of sh*t to me!“I’m going to teach you a

Lloyd claimed that he was not able to make it clear on the phone and would elaborate when they met at the airport. Javier believed that it was not a big issue, or the man would not have waited until he arrived at the airport, so he looked out the window and enjoyed the beauty of the high altitude.At the same time, though, there was a knock on the door.Herschel came in with Javier’s permission but seemed hesitant to speak. Javier glanced at him. “Well, keep it down. Since it’s such a tough thing to do, keep it in. Why are you here to see me?”Herschel winced, but Javier’s sarcasm gave him a boost of confidence. What his boss meant was clear: He ought to speak whatever he had on his mind, as there was no need for caution.Herschel then told him that he had bumped into his first love among the air stewardesses on duty.It surprised Javier because these air stewardesses had gone through an elaborate selection process. Their figure and beauty were all above average. He had not expect
