The high ceilings of Dixon Corporation’s lobby were adorned with modern chandeliers that emitted a soft, inviting glow. The atmosphere was bustling with employees hurrying about, but for Asher, time seemed to pause momentarily. The moment he stepped inside, his eyes landed on a familiar figure standing in the corner, speaking with a receptionist.

Alicia.

Dressed in a neatly tailored cream blazer paired with a knee-length pencil skirt, she exuded an aura of elegance and professionalism. Her hair, usually worn loose, was tied back in a low ponytail, framing her face perfectly. There was something so simple yet so captivating about her appearance that Asher found himself unable to look away.

He approached her, a small smile forming on his lips. “What brings you here?” he asked, his voice low but warm.

Alicia turned, her brown eyes meeting his gaze instantly. A sweet smile graced her face, and for a moment, the bustling lobby felt like it belonged to just the two of them.

    When Asher arrived at the office, he immediately noticed something unusual. A group of people stood on the street in front of the building, holding banners and posters with bold, striking messages. "OUR LAND IS NOT FOR SALE!" and "STOP THE FORCED LAND SEIZURE!" were prominently displayed. Their faces were tense, and some pointed angrily toward the building. Even their shouts caught the attention of employees and passersby in the area. "Our land is not for sale!" One of them yelled. "Stop forcing us to sell our property rights!" "We have the right to defend our land!" Asher frowned, his eyebrows knitting together as his sharp gaze studied the crowd from behind the car window. He stepped out of the vehicle with firm, measured strides. Once he entered the building lobby, Joseph was already waiting for him, his face equally tense. “What’s this protest about, Joseph?” Asher asked, his tone curt and authoritative. “I’m not sure about the details yet, sir, but Kailos is handling

    The night at the Dixon mansion was calm, with the evening breeze flowing softly through the large windows lining the corridors. Asher had just finished his work in the study and was making his way back to his room. However, his steps slowed as he approached the lounge. The gentle voice of his mother drifted faintly through the slightly ajar door.Asher approached quietly, stopping at the doorway without any intention of eavesdropping. Yet, Luciana’s words were clear, her tone both elegant and enthusiastic as she spoke on the phone.“Yes, I think tomorrow night is perfect. Everything has been prepared; we’re just waiting for the guests now. Oh, I’m certain Asher will love this,” Luciana said, ending her sentence with a soft chuckle.Asher exhaled softly, waiting until his mother’s conversation wrapped up with a polite farewell.

    The meeting room at Dixon Marketing & Innovations felt cold, even though the air conditioning blew softly. Glass walls offered a view of the bustling city outside, while the large table in the center was cluttered with documents, laptops, and tense faces. Asher sat at the head of the table, dressed in a sharp black suit with a slim tie. His handsome face was neutral, exuding an air of authority. In his hand, he twirled a pen slowly, a reflection of his patience running thin.Across from him sat Gaurav Fernandez, a man in his fifties with a large build clad in an expensive gray suit. His face was red with suppressed anger, and he slapped the table hard with his hand. “Those villagers need to know their place! My project could be a massive opportunity for them, yet they refuse because of their sentimental attachment to some worn-out land. It’s absurd!”Leonard tried to ease the tension, speaking carefully. “Mr. Fernandez, we understand your frustration. However, this situation requires

However, in a dimly lit corner, Kaylery Barnnet’s mood stood in stark contrast to the festive atmosphere around him.Kaylery’s sharp eyes were fixed on Asher, who stood by Alicia’s side. The woman was smiling warmly while Asher casually brushed his hand against her cheek. The simple gesture was enough to make Kaylery’s anger boil over.

    In the hidden tech room within the Celestial Haven Hotel, Joseph stood amidst the blue glow radiating from the holographic screens in front of him.

There were no physical screens, only projections hovering in the air—a testament to Dixon’s cutting-edge technology.Joseph’s face was serious, his eyes scanning every detail on the screen. But his composure broke when he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned quickly to see Wilson pointing toward one of the holographic screens on the right.“On the 24th floor, look at that,” Wilson said quietly but firmly, his finger pointing to a man dressed entirely in black who appeared on the surveillance camera.The man looked suspicious, walking briskly toward room 234. The camera’s auto-zoom captured his movements. Joseph’s eyes narrowed as he watched the man stop in front of the room, pull something from his bag, and attach it to the

    The abandoned building was eerily silent, illuminated only by the dim light of a portable lamp Joseph had brought. The walls were covered in graffiti, and the dirt floor was dusty, mixed with footprints and drying stains of fresh blood. The early morning air was cold, but inside that room, the tension burned hotter than fire.Three men lay sprawled on the dusty floor, their bodies bruised and their faces battered, groaning faintly in the heavy silence. Their hands were tied behind their backs, and their eyes darted with fear every time they glanced at the figure standing before them.Asher stood tall in front of them. His black suit, simple yet impeccable, radiated an aura of authority and mercilessness that couldn’t be ignored. His face showed no hint of compassion, only a sharp, penetrating gaze that could pierce the soul of anyone unlucky enough to meet it. Behind him, Joseph stood still, his eyes carefully watching every movement of the three men.“Is it done?” Asher asked flatly,

    The sound of shattering glass broke the silence in Kaylery Barnnet’s office. A crystal glass that had been in his hand now lay scattered across the floor, its contents soaking into the thick carpet. Kaylery stood in the center of the room, his breathing heavy and his eyes red with rage. He raked his hands through his hair, the gesture rough and filled with frustration.“Damn it! I hate him!” Kaylery shouted, his voice echoing through the room.His subordinates stood frozen near the door, too afraid to say anything. They knew that when Kaylery was angry, everything could end tragically. None of them dared to approach him.Antony had been taken by Asher Dixon. Fernandez’s project had been ruthlessly canceled.

Alicia looked cheerful, wearing a maroon blazer paired with white trousers, making her appear both professional and graceful. This was the first time Asher had visited her office—normally, their meetings took place elsewhere or at Asher’s own office.When the door opened and Asher walked in, Alicia immediately stood from her chair with a wide smile. “I’m glad you could come,” she said sincerely, gesturing for Asher to sit on the comfortable sofa in the corner of the room.Before Asher could say anything, he handed her a bag filled with desserts he had purchased earlier from La Pâtisserie Éclat. “This is for you,” he said casually, looking at Alicia with a calm, attentive gaze.Alicia was momentarily surprised, then let out a soft laugh, her sweet smile lighting up her face. “You didn
