Chapter One.
The sun had started to set and a cool breeze was blowing. Asher Griffin smiled to himself as he walked down the street towards the Harper's family mansion, where a party was being thrown that night to celebrate the 60th birthday anniversary of Roland Harper, the patriarch of the family and his father in law. He slipped his hand into his pocket and touched the small box he kept there, which made him smile even wider. "Roxanne is going to love this gift," he thought to himself. Today, he had bought Roxanne a necklace with a set of earrings so she could wear for the party. His wife's family looked down on him and treated him like trash because he was poor. When he got married to Roxanne three years ago, the Harpers thought he was a new big shot in the city. Unknown to them, he was just running errands for his boss. He had tried to explain the truth to them, but they never thought to listen to him. As he reached the gates of the mansion, he saw that they were closed. The pressed in th

After Asher left the party, he called a car to come and pick him up. Not too long after that, Liam Garrison came to stand beside him. "Aren't you offended by their actions, sir?" Liam asked him. "And why should I be?" Asher asked, a small smirk stretching his lips. "Sir…" Liam trailed off. "Exactly." Asher stated. "There's no need for me to reveal myself this early, and the Harpers aren't worth me sabotaging myself just this soon. All except one anyway.""I understand." Liam nodded, just as the car arrived. Asher stepped into the backseat of the car and waited as Liam got into the other side. "Where to now, sir?" Liam asked. "I need to find a place to stay. Something more long term. Are there any available properties for sale in the city?" Asher asked. "Yes sir, there are." Liam replied. "I want the absolute best that money can buy, I have a lot of it just sitting in my account collecting dust." Asher said. "In that case sir, I know the perfect place for you to purchase a ho

On seeing what he did, Odette flew into a frenzy. "Now look what you've done, you useless good for nothing. Stop hindering our chances at a better life! Maybe of we just cut you off this family you'll learn your lesson."Roland stood behind his wife in support. "She's right, Asher, you're just a leech feeding off this family's resources. But no more. As from today, the Harpers disown you as a member of the family. You no longer have any ties to us, social or otherwise. And once we find a way to separate you from Roxanne, it will be permanent."Asher felt nothing as he heard his father in law's words. It changed nothing, they had never treated him like a part of the family anyway. All they did was humiliate and insult him. Roxanne, however, was torn apart. She moved to beg her family but Asher gripped her hand, giving her a small, subtle shake of the head as a signal not to act. She nodded her head, learning to trust her husband in such situations. A member of the wait staff came and

Asher was back in his room at the hotel when he received a phone call from Andrew Garrison. He picked and placed the phone against his ear. "Hello, Andrew. I assume the first thing has been done?" "Yes, Mr. G, done exactly according to your instructions. I even sent my brother as a show of good faith." Andrew's voice came over the phone. "Good. I know that some of your staff may have their reservations, but trust me. I'll send you three hundred million dollars right now as an initial investment." Asher said. "Sir, wow. Thank you sir." Andrew breathed in gratitude. "It's nothing, Andrew. This is just the beginning of what you stand to gain by allying yourself with me." "I understand, sir. I await further instructions.""I'll get back to you when I need you." Asher said. "Yes sir." Andrew said and hung up. Almost immediately, Asher received another call, but this time from Roxanne. "Hello, my dear," he purred into the phone as he picked up. "Asher, you would never believe it!"

It was a regular afternoon in the Harper Corporation. Somehow, word had gotten out about Roxanne's mission to find new investors or be made to leave her current husband and marry the Larsen's heir, so it was the current hot topic of discussion in the office. "Did you hear the news about Roxanne?" One lady called to another from her cubicle. "Oh yes I did. Such juicy information." The second lady replied. "I really do hope she divorces that her good for nothing husband. I was lucky to see Seth Larsen once, he's so tall and handsome." The first one said, clasping her hands in front of her chest with a dreamy look in her face. "That means you want our company not to get investors?" the second one chided her. "If she marries Seth Larsen, the Larsen's family business will partner with us, so what do we need investors for? Don't forget they're a second rate family." The first lady reminded the second one. "Oh well, you're right. But that's enough Roxanne drama, she's still our boss an

Asher just stood and watched as Andrew berated James. "I hope you're not offended, Master Kane. Some people can't recognise greatness even when it stands before them," Andrew tried to suck up to Asher, who only replied with a small smile on his face. Asher then ordered the security guards back to their duty posts. The two guards who had let Asher in bowed and thanked him profusely before rushing back, feeling relief that they had not taken action against him. James, on the other hand was as pale as a sheet. He was currently trembling where he stood by the side. Who exactly had he offended? He had let his arrogance and greed go to his head. He was praying silently that the mysterious man whom even his family head had to respect would have mercy on him. As if Andrew could hear his brother's thoughts, he called him ti kneel in front of Asher and apologise. "Now, apologise to Mr. Kane here. He will decide how he wants to deal with you."James quickly got onto his knees and began to a

The car turned onto the paved road that led to the Garrison estate. They were a second rate family in New York City, with a lot of influence and connections as they were once a top rate family. However, not many knew their background or how they were able to remain an influential family after the disaster that befell them all those years ago. Asher Griffin was however very privy to that secret, as they were one of the many families in the country that answered to him. Or rather the power he represented. Either way, he needed a base of operations, and as long as they played their cards right, they could benefit from this arrangement greatly. The car rolled to a stop in front of the gates of the expansive Garrison estate. The guards at the post were confused, as they weren't alerted by the family higher ups that anyone important was visiting that day. "Who are you, please? And how may we help you?" One guard approached the car on the driver's side and asked. Asher didn't reply, it w

. Asher was on his way to the estate of the first family on his list when he received a call from Roxanne. "Hello Asher," she said in a small voice over the speaker. On hearing that tone, Asher immediately knew that something was not right. His wife was normally quite calm and soft spoken, but right now something was amiss. "What's wrong my dear?" He asked, concern lacing his tone. "It's my parents," she answered, her voice starting to break. Asher felt unease begin to flow through his veins, but none of it was visible on his face. Hadn't that family hurt them enough? What is it they did this time? "What's happened? How did they hurt you? What did they do?" He asked her in a calm voice. She took a deep breath on the other side before she began to speak, "You know how bad things are at the company financially. That's why they want me to marry Seth Larsen, so that his family will invest in our company. But I don't want to marry him, so I brought up the idea of sending out busines

The next morning, Asher stood on the balcony of the hotel room, making a phone call. "We need to meet with the families, so we can know our next plan of action. I'll see you soon. Send a car to pick me up this morning." Asher said into the phone. "As you wish, boss." The voice on the other side replied. "Good." Asher said and hung up. He moved about to get ready for the day. He looked at his rumpled shirt and jeans, and made a mental note to get himself new clothes. He left the suite and took the elevator downstairs to the lobby. There, he saw the manager from yesterday standing by the front desk, talking sternly to a new receptionist. The manager turned and noticed him, then rushed forward and began to offer greetings. "Uh, good morning, Mr…" The manager then realised that he didn't even know Asher's name. "You can call me Mr. Griffin." Asher told him, noticing his discomfort. "Thank you very much, sir," The manager supplied. "I'll be leaving this morning." Asher announced.

Asher sat down in the back of the car as the driver wove through the roads in the city. "Find me a comfortable place to sleep tonight." Asher said to the driver. "Yes boss," the driver nodded and continued to drive, stopping in front of a 4 star luxury hotel. "It's not the best in the city, but it's the closest sir." The driver said to him. "It's fine," Asher replied. He opened a small black box that was kept on the seat beside him in the car. In the box was a black card with a glittering silver stripe along one side, and a sleek black smartphone. He tucked both items into the pocket of his jeans and stepped out of the car and into the hotel lobby. Once he entered the hotel, he went straight to the front desk where a young woman was sitting behind it. She took one look at him, noticing his old jeans and rough t-shirt and her face dissolved into a frown. "I'd like a room for the night, please." Asher said to her. She wrinkled her nose at him as if he smelled bad, then said rudel
