Asher's Legacy. Chapter Ninety Four.
Asher was surprised how Ryder was able to think with such speed, he had given it every possible shot but still could not come up with something as thoughtful as Ryder's suggestion."That's a really great idea. But hey, how did you do that?" Asher asked, his face etched with surprise. "I literally won't have thought in this direction, if you hadn't mentioned it"Asher said and Ryder smiled, gesturing to Asher why he is still smarter than Asher thought he was. "You are man, no doubt. Meanwhile I'd to hear what Roxanne have to say about it"Asher said as he headed back into the house to see Roxanne. Asher got inside and saw Roxanne and Old Tian laughing on top of their voices, for someone who hasn't seen Roxanne laugh that hard for long, he paused and watched as the two bonded. Unknown to Roxanne and Old Tian that Asher had been standing and watching them, but after a few minutes, he started walking towards them."It's good to see you two this way. You know I should actually leave Roxann
Asher's Legacy. Chapter Ninety Five.
As Asher was about to leave, Ryder held his hand and gently pulled him back and said to him, since they don't know how serious Roland's situation would be at the time, he suggested they start their plan immediately. Asher wasn't sure if that would be a good idea as he stood looking at Ryder and thinking of how possible it was that Old Tian would believe the news of him being sick just immediately after leaving his house. "Won't that be too early?" Asher asked, his voice low as he tried to hesitate.Ryder's nodded his head making Asher understand with him that it was actually the best thing to do. "The earlier, the better, Asher. Let's get to it"Asher thought about it for a moment and saw the actual sense in what Ryder had said. For a second, Asher was wondering what a fast thinker Ryder could be, he would never believe if he wasn't present."So wha's your next move?" Asher asked, to find out what the chances would be.Ryder smiled and rubbed Asher on the shoulder, then said to him.

Old Tian seemed not to understand what was happening to Ryder. Why would a man in his complete masculine nature be crying like that? If he wasn't loosing his mind then something is definitely wrong somewhere. Tian thought to himself as he watched Ryder cry in confusion."Asher and Roxanne ran into a moving vehicle, and I doubt they'll make it alive. I just need you to come see Asher before something happens to him" Ryder said, as he sobbed, his body shaking at the same time.Old Tian knew at this point that something was definitely wrong. Could Asher really be involved in an accident? Could Ryder be saying the truth? If that was really truth, why does it have to be his Asher? So many human walking and driving on the street, Why does his Asher had to be the victim? Ryder was definitely joking, He could probably be doing that for a reason.Old Tian thought to himself and took steps forward to Ryder, then placed his hand on his shoulder with a small smile plastering on his lips, he said

Asher drove into Roland's premises with Roxanne by his side. As they stepped into the living room, and right there was Odette and Meredith sitting next to each other on the couch, They both were having a glum look on their faces,Roxanne took her eyes round the room. She stood in a spot and said a prayer in her heart for a short while, while Asher watched her, hoping the look on their faces was not what he was thinking.As Asher tried reaching her hand, she shoved it off and rushed to sit beside her mother while taking her eyes round Odette's face. "Are you okay Mom? Is not what I'm thinking right?" Roxanne asked, her voice sounding very anxious.Odette who was obviously lost of strength to speak at the point, looked at Roxanne in the face and then looked away from her. Roxanne was completely restless at the point, she wants to stand up to go check on her father but at the same time she was scared of walking in there to meet her father in a motionless position.Her gaze went back to

Old Tian adjusted his worn denim jacket after accepting to go with Ryder to see Asher, he rubbed his hand through his thinning gray hair and said to Ryder the moment he approached the car where Ryder had parked it. "Can i go like this?" Ryder smiled in amusement of how fashionable the old man can still appear in his old age. He nodded his head trying to let Tian know he was looking great. "Perfect, Old Tian. Please get in, we need to go cause we do not have much time here"Asher said and then ushered Tian into the car, and they drove off into the evening traffic. "I don't know you could actually look this young, old man" Ryder said and Tian looked at Ryder with a sheepish grin, not saying a word. Ryder noticed he was blushing, he then switched to. "Asher would be really happy to see you" Tian ignored him, his whole attention was on when and how they would get to where Asher was. He just want to see him, and know what his situation was like.But at a point Tian became confused with

Asher hurried out to the outside, and right there, standing next to each other, were Ryder and Old Tian. Tian's eyes widened as he saw Asher coming out from the door. He quickly strode over to him leaving Ryder behind."My goodness, Asher!" Tian exclaimed as he approached Asher with his arms wide opened then wrapped him in his arms. "You don't look like someone who was involved in an accident, Asher" he whispered into Asher's ear, his voice filled with excitement. "What happened? Why did Ryder have to lie? Was that necessary?"Asher slowly pulled himself from Tian's arms and looked into his face, a small smile plastered on his lips. "I'm so sorry Old Tian, I just had to because I didn't know how to tell you about it" Asher said, trying to apologise for lying to him for the first time since they crossed paths. His voice soft but cracky. "Ryder actually came up with the plan but I queued in when I ran out of option on what to do"Tian deemed his eyes in confusion, wondering what Asher

Tian went straight to where Asher and Roxanne stood locked up in each other’s arms and gently pulled Roxanne out of Asher's arms. Then held her in his own and whispered softly into her ear. "I was brought this far for him, Roxanne. So don't worry, your father is still alive."Roxanne continued to cry in Tian's arms while holding on him, she tried to figure out what Tian mean by the word "Alive" when she literally watched her father took his last breath. Tian held her for a moment longer, then gently released her, and then asked Asher to take him to where Roland was, Why the rest looked at him in shock wondering what he was going there to do when Roxanne just confirmed her father was dead.They got to the room where Roland was laying dead then Tian moved closer to the bed, a soft smile spreads across his face then he turned around and said to them.

Roxanne ran towards the door, her arms wide open. As she rushed to hug Tian, she saw her father. Roland, standing at the other side of the door. "Dad?" Roxanne called out, her arms still hanging on the air. She turned around again to look at Tian in the face. "My father is alive?" She asked as Tian nodded his head in response. "He is, Roxanne. Just go ahead" Tian said gesturing Roxanne to go ahead and give Roland a hug.Before she could turn around again to look at Roland he was already out of the room, wrapped up in the arms Odette and Meredith. Roxanne turned back around to face Tian and then said to him. "Thank you very much, Old Tian. Thank you, thank you" Roxanne said as she left in excitement to go join the company of Odette and Meredith."You actually did it, thank you for not letting me down" Asher said as he wrapped Tian in his arms. "Thank you! Old Tian" Ryder shouted from the distance.The celebration was over and they were all seated inside Roland’s room, except for Odett
