The Milan family mansion was filled with numerous high profile guests, chatting and enjoying themselves in the beautifully decorated hall.At that moment, a couple entered with a .sense of pride."That guy would never make it here. I'm certain he only accepted the bet to appear impressive, but in reality, he's got nothing," Brighton remarked, flashing a bright smile at Catherine.Last night, leveraging his connections, he managed to remove all the photos of himself and Catherine kneeling from the internet. He even crafted a story to save face, claiming it was all due to a foolish bet.Today, Brighton woke up feeling refreshed, although the disappointment of his big brother not picking up his calls still lingered in his heart and he blamed Asher for all of that. "Brighton, you look fantastic today. With your presence, we can strike new deals for Prime-M and solidify our positions," Catherine, dressed in a fancy rer dress commented."I know, right? I've already made my plans. I'll also
"Asher, aren't you going to order any wine? Or don't tell me you don't have money on you, if you beg me and forget our bet, I would buy whatever drink you want." Brighton suggested. Both he and Catherine were sitting around the same table as Asher. "Do you think I am so poor that I can't afford my own wine? You are scared because you have lost a bet, don't worry, I won't cancel the bet until you have serve your punishment." Brighton angrily scoffed, "The bet is invalid, you stole the invitation card." "In the rules of our bet, you didn't mention that we can't steal invitations, did you?" "Even if I didn't mention that, you should be wise enough to know that stolen invitations are not allowed." Asher laughed out loud, "Brighton, I know what you are trying to do, you are trying to make me lose face while raising your own reputation However, you can only make me lose face in the past and not now." "You are still very poor, if you are not poor, prove it by ordering something." A
Catherine and Brighton steered clear from Asher after the event with Wallace, they had to keep their Identity and reputation in check in order to get what they came here for. The event Kickstarted finally as Brad Milan arrived in a fancy car, one of the latest model Bugatti! Garnering attention from the crowd. "Look at how handsome you are today Sir Brad!" "Ah, thank you, you look nice too!" "You are not only big part of the business world but now you have an award, your claim of the business world is better now!" "Haha, that's too big, there is still so many fields of the business world that I haven't touched yet, the reward is just a recognition and doesn't actually mean I have advanced in the business field!" Brad was humble in his dealing with the businessmen, his every reply was cloaked in humility that made the business persons around love him even more. Asher hasn't meet this man yet and doesn't understand his character, beside, if he should go there right now to shake,
At the large parking lot outside the Milan family mansion, three men could be seen standing close to two big cars worth hundred of thousand of dollar. "That bastard, who does he think he is? Just because he has a special invitation card, he thinks he can speak to you in such manner?" Out of the three men, the thinnest of the three spoke while looking at Wallace who had a sour expression on his face. "Yes, Sir Wallace, I am sure you would deal with him when he gets out. He doesn't look like someone that can take one slap from you and still stand on one feet without someone supporting up. Not just that, look at how plain he looks, someone like that is not even capable of spending a dollar on a woman. But you, Sir Wallace, you are strong, you have an expensive car and you are one of the most sort out men by lot of women, Lady Ariana can't resist your charm." Wallace, whose ego inflated as a results of the praises finally revealed a cold smirk. "When he gets out, I will beat some
Wallace reluctantly got into his car, his eyes burning with hatred as he left the Milan family premises. Not only had that plain looking guy stolen his woman right under his nose, but he had also publicly humiliated him.As he drove, a plan formed in his mind. He grabbed his phone and called his manager. "Hello." He started, then explained his plans after his manager responded."Sir, I'll do as you say and make sure all restaurants and date spots push him away."After hearing the reply from his manager, a smile appeared on his face, and he hung up. "Let me see how you, a plain-looking broke man, would escape from the connection of a powerful man like me."Oblivious to Wallace's sinister plan, Asher and Ariana drove towards Emerald Restaurant, a popular spot known for its couples' treatment. To dine there, one must have over a hundred thousand to spend; otherwise, they risked embarrassment."Asher, this place doesn't have to be so expensive; a regular restaurant would've been bett
Ariana observed the conversation between Asher and Higgins, noticing Asher's smile contrasted with Higgins's frequent bursts of hearty laughter."What could they be discussing?" she wondered.Asher was a mysterious character to her, he appeared out of nowhere and gradually asserted his dominance.In the time she had observed him, she had discovered he was a guy with a plan. Everything he did seemed to have a purpose.She wondered if their date was also one of his many schemes, but she shook that thought from her mind."You said twelve million, I want to buy it now and you have no right to refuse," Asher declared confidently."Why would I refuse? If you have the money, I'll sell the company, but you don't even look like someone with ten thousand in his account," Higgins retorted."Well, you might be right. Call the chairpersons and tell them someone is interested in buying," Asher insisted.Higgins looked at Asher, astonished at his confidence in something so improbable. He found it ap
Higgins stared nervously at the handsome young man in front of him."I knew you would do something like this, so I followed you here, and I guess I wasn't wrong about that," Asher remarked with a smirk as he approached the manager's seat and sat on it.Higgins observed Asher with fear."Sir, it's not what you think! I didn't intend to call Mr. Wallace. I only wanted to call my wife and inform her to prepare something good," Higgins knelt and apologized, inadvertently revealing the truth.Asher nodded. "Great, it seems your wife will also have to know that you will be staying with her for quite some time."Higgins was puzzled. Was he actually wrong about Asher? Was this Mr. Asher actually a good guy?"Mr. Asher, even though I have sinned against you, because of your kind heart, you still want to give me a break to stay with my family. You are such a good man," tears almost fell from his eyes."You misunderstood. Who said I was going to give you a break? Well, it's more like a break, to
Brighton, after several unsuccessful attempts to reach his brother, finally gave up. He clenched his fist, attributing all the blame to one person. Recalling that person's face, he angrily threw a punch, only to cry out in pain as it met the unyielding wall."Ouch," he exclaimed, nursing his sore hand."Today, I'll visit the young miss of the Milan family and sign a contract with their hotel! With that, I'll solidify my position and show everyone I'm not a loser," he thought determinedly.Just then, the office door opened, and Catherine walked in with a serious expression on her face."Here are the documents, Boss. He seems pleased with our ideas and wishes us good luck with the contract," she reported.Brighton clenched his fist, and a smile appeared on his face."If we get this done and solidify our positions as well as build a relationship with the Boss, we will be able to humiliate Asher once again for what he did to us."Catherine nodded with a smile, however, she felt sad inside
Even after Asher and Tiger chased the annoying woman away, the homeless guy who had his eyes shut didn't bother opening it. Asher stared at him with an interested expression on his face, he observed his features closely. He has long messy facial hair that made it impossible for someone to see his face, in fact, one wouldn't be able to guess his age. "Yuan, we know you are not asleep." Asher called his name with a smile. Hearing someone call his name, a name that no one has called for ten years made him open his eyes. He stood up and glared at Asher, "How did you know my name, who are you!" He looked really pissed off and vigilant. "Yuan, get off your act." Tiger reprimanded. It was at that moment that Yuan noticed him, he found this face extremely familiar and very soon his eyes widened. "Senior Tiger??" Tiger smiled, "Yes that is me." Yuan eyes widened, "I thought... You, y
The next day quickly arrived after a night of peaceful sex, Asher was laying on the bed with a warm smile on his face while Arianna relaxed her head on his chest. Today, he would be kicking off another part of life, he couldn't help but be glad about it. Just then, his phone rang, it was a call from a tiger. —"Good morning boss, Terry asked me to inform you that the stuff is ready." "Great, I want you and anyone you trust in a gang affair to come to Terry's place by 7." —"Hmm, the only one I trust is Nathan." "No need for them, I have already informed Nathan." —"I will be there by the time you say." Asher nodded his head and hung up the call. Arianna was still deep asleep, he could tell if someone was asleep or pretending with the help of his extraordinary eyes. He smiled and planted a kiss on her forehead before heading into the bathroom to have a nice bath, after that, he left the hotel. ....Terry's Mansion. Asher was sitting on the sofa with a relaxed expression on his
Asher and Arianna returned to Gold Lush hotel, however getting there, they were informed that someone who claimed to be a friend of Asher was waiting.Asher escorted Arinna to her room before going to meet the visitor who turned out to be Nathan. "Wassup, Nathan"Both of them shook hands and Nathan looked at Asher with worry in his eyes, after the question Asher asked yesterday, he began to doubt it, "Asher, Do you really wanna become a gangster?""Yeah, why do you ask?" He sensed the worry in his buddy's voice and was curious."I know we had the same goal in the past but that was just our childhood fantasies that i managed to achieve faster, however, as i have experienced everything you are about to experience, as a friend, it would be evil of me if I don't tell you about it."Nathan sounded really serious unlike his usual funny self, Asher grew up with Nathan, he knew more about him than anyone."Asher, getting into a gang affair is like separating yourself from normal humans, you w
At Terry's Mansion, Terry stared at Asher, confused. "Are you sure you really want to do that?"He was puzzled when Asher came to his place this morning, telling him that he wanted to create a gang. Although he knew someone as powerful as him would be able to handle all the work that comes with creating a gang, he was still surprised as to what motivated him to.Asher, currently sipping his wine with a calm expression on his face, looked at Terry. "I gave an order not for you to ask questions but to carry them out."Terry shivered upon hearing his cold voice. "What do you want to name your gang? I can take care of everything and in two days, I will get back to you with your gang creation pass," he said.Asher thought about it. He hadn't really thought of a name for his gang, but hearing that question made him realize that he needed one."What should I name it now?" he pondered while staring at the wine glass.Then he turned to look at Terry as a name appeared in his head. "Dragon Vang
"Tell me who sent you, little bastard!" said Nathan as he kicked Rodney's stomach, causing him to fall to the ground, wincing in pain. However, he couldn't say anything. Rodney had taken a lot of beating to the point he started wishing for death. He had made a deal never to reveal that person's identity. If he doesn't, he might be killed. But if he reveals that name, the chances of him getting killed would be way higher. Nathan looked at Rodney with a frown. He had used all his beating techniques and so much torture, but Rodney refused to speak. He turned to Wallace, who lay on the ground unconscious. He had given Wallace such a beating that he couldn't speak anymore, let alone move.Nathan sighed. This was going to be much more work than expected.....Meanwhile, at an office in the Money Shark business building.Bruce could be seen sitting with a masked figure who gave off a strong aura.The man giving off a strong aura had long black hair that was revealed through the mask. His
Asher was at the Milan Mansion. A big family meeting was going on and the atmosphere around the round table wasn't good at all. Mark was sitting close to Brad with a scowl on his face, right beside him was Ariana who had a disgusted expression towards her brother. Rodney was kneeling in the middle of the room, his head was bowed. Just then the guards from outside opened the door and two men grabbing another man like a thief walked in. "Boss you were right, this annoying bastard is nothing more than a thief!" Tiger said as he tossed Wallace to the ground, causing him to let out a small cry of pain. Wallace lifted his head even though he was in pain, he saw Mark and Brad, they looked fully healthy! He also noticed Rodney kneeling very close to him with his head bowed to the ground. He suddenly came to a realization, their plans didn't work! When his eyes met Asher's, he was greeted with so many emotions at once, surprise, hate, anger and jealousy. "So it was you targeting my li
Wallace had finished speaking with his buddy. After confirming from his buddy that the job was done, a wild smile crept onto his face. Thoughts of a successful future, where both he and his friend would become rulers of a vast business empire, began to play in his head."I will have any woman I want, buy any car, live in an estate of my choice, and get to shake hands with big content creators.My fanbase would grow, it wouldn't just be those who love my bodybuilding but also those curious about my wealth," he muttered to himself.Then a face appeared in his head—a handsome young man with a scheming smile."And that fucker! Damnit! Why haven't those bastards called to confirm his death? I can't wait anymore!" he gritted his teeth.He grabbed his phone and called the same person."Hello, yes, it's me! Why the fuck are you guys taking so much time? I want him dead, and that bastard is still roaming around, fully alive. Do you think I have all the time in the world?"—"Calm down! My men a
In this world, evil and good exists on a large scale, contrasting each other on a daily basis! It is said that the good ones die first and the evil one lives more, however in the case of Rodney, that didn't seem to be the case. "Rodney! You were my favorite son! I literally did everything you wanted without asking why, I had so many shares in different companies using your name to ensure you have a bright future even though you were lazy. Among all my kids, you are the only one who eats my money the most without working but yet.." Mark's voice lowered while saying the last statement. Rodney's head was lowered to the ground. "I am sorry..." He apologized but Asher knew those apologies were fakes. At that moment, his phone rang. However, he quickly hung up. "Pick the call, it's from Wallace, right? And put it on speaker when you do, don't you dare act like you are in trouble." Asher said with an authoritative voice. "No... It's just casual stuff, I don't need to pick it up." H
At Terry's mansion, the 7th floor which is three floors away from the floor the chaos was taking place.Rodney was sitting there, facing a led screen TV while clutching a glass of wine in his right hand.On his face was a smile, this smile is like that of a man whose life is going just as planned."Haha, next on the line is Brad and then that bastard Asher!" He muttered to himself.He has been here, enjoying himself since he heard the news that his dad and sister have been kidnapped.What is left now is for the poison to start taking effect and then, those two would be as useless as a mentally ill person. His plan wasn't for them to die but for them to run mad."Why is Terry not here yet? I thought I told him to make it fast. Knowing my father, he would try to bargain for his life, I hope that fool won't fall for it." He complained, a frown etched on his face.15 minutes passed! There was no Terry.The men that left the room about thirty minutes ago are still not here.Rodney was frus
