Misrepresented and Shamed“I'm sure something so expensive and luxurious can't be owned by this thing! He's a loser!" Reese snapped. Ashton remained standing in the doorway, his expression cold as he looked at Mr. Reese. The man was fuming, his face red with frustration as he waved at the security guards. “I don't know when you started letting riff raffs into this place!" The security scratched his head. He looked very polite and didn't want to mistreat Ashton, in fact, he pitied him. “Sir, maybe we should try to let him explain how he got here,” the man suggested calmly. “I said, get him out of here! Right now!” Reese barked, his voice echoing across the lobby. The security guards hesitated, shifting uneasily as they exchanged glances. They had been informed that today was a crucial day, the arrival of the new chairman, and the last thing they wanted was trouble. Yet, something about Ashton’s presence made them think twice. Ashton wasn't dressed fancy but he looked like he

A Man Honored While everyone was still stunned, the CEO respectfully ushered Ashton into her office. “Sir, please can we talk in my office?" Ashton nodded and followed the beautiful lady out of the lobby. He could still hear the whispers among the employees who were still marveling at what was going on. The guard still looked awe struck and the others began to congratulate him. Just as the door opened, the secretary bowed to Ashton, “Welcome, sir," she greeted with a smile. The CEO smiled and then looked at Ashton, “You can call me Victoria Langford, you're welcome to Titanium Company." Ashton stepped inside with an air of confidence, his posture was straight. The sleek, minimalist design of the office was calming. Victoria Langford, the CEO, stood near her desk and then offered him a seat. “I apologize for the lack of a proper welcome,” Victoria said as she stepped forward, her voice a little more breathless than usual. “I wasn’t informed of your arrival time.” Ashton’s l

A Legacy of Power Ashton had a smug smile on his face as Reese was dragged out of the hall. “Please! Forgive me, I had no idea!" Reese yelled out helplessly. But there was nothing to forgive. Ashton was done being disrespected by the likes of him. He'd taken a bribe from Clifford and disqualified him without cause. “You're lucky I didn't make you spend your life behind bars,” Ashton hissed dismissively. Victoria cleared her throat, "You made the right choice to just send him away. Having him locked up might ruin the company's reputation and we don't want that, sir.” Ashton nodded. Victoria looked level headed and he knew she'd always think for the good of the company. But Reese had to be put in his place. Looking around, Ashton noticed that the crowd was fixated on him. Everyone looked at him in awe. Some whispered behind their hands and Victoria stood beside him stiffly, as gorgeous as ever. “Don't let the loser spoil the night, have fun!" Ashton bellowed loudly as he strode

The Scorn of a Leader Ashton was stunned. He couldn't say a word. His father was in debt? His family was in debt? The entire company was in debt? It didn't make any sense. They were rich. He'd just spent millions in the club just a few nights ago and now he was finding out the company was in debt? Was this some kind of test he didn't know about? “What does this mean? Who wrote this?" His voice was cold as he turned to stare at each member of the board. All the partners and investors looked at him like he was trash. “I should have known this was a sick game! Titanium lost a good leader only for this arrogant child to take over," the skinny lady scoffed as she picked up her purse and was immediately escorted out by the rest of the partners. Ashton was frozen in place. He didn't know what to say. What could he possibly tell them that would make them listen? He was as lost and as stunned as they possibly were. As soon as the executives saw that partners were leaving, they tried

Men in Black Ashton Reed wore a satisfied smirk as the police dragged Edward out of the property. Two corrupt men gone already and he was just a few days in. Reese was gone. Edward was gone. Daisy was gone. The board, which had nearly betrayed him, sat in stunned silence. He had played their own game and won. Turning to Liam, his secretary, the man who had saved him from complete disgrace, Ashton knew what he had to do. What he had promised him. "Liam," he announced boldly despite the murmurs in the room. "Effective immediately, you are the new manager of Titanium Incorporated." Loud gasps echoed through the boardroom. A few executives shot to their feet in protest. "This is absurd!" one of the senior members, Mr. Hargrove, exclaimed. “Manager? That position can't be casually filled!" Another stated. But in all this, Ashton remained silent. He knew he had the final say. "Liam is nothing more than a secretary. He pushes papers, takes notes, and schedules meetings. What do
