The Billionaire Student After Breakup CHAPTER 26
Being a billionaire made Asher feel busy. He had learned many things, especially the importance of power, money, and high social status in today's world.Asher's gaze was fixed outside his office window, watching the busy hustle and bustle below. "They are all racing to make more money," Asher murmured.Today, the Dixon Corporation is filled with its characteristic busyness. The sound of ringing phones, the footsteps of busy employees hustling around, and the typing of keyboards created an intense work symphony.Asher sat back at his neatly arranged desk, focused on his computer screen while giving instructions to his team via email.In this busyness, his office door swung open roughly. Olivia walked in, wearing a knee-length dress with a low neckline. Her sweet smile and seductive walk were designed to attract Asher's attention. However, Asher remained focused on his work, barely lifting his head."Asher, I'm here," Olivia greeted, a smile still framing her face. "Can't you at least

That night, Asher arrived at the Pervaz family's residence, a grand mansion towering like a palace. At the main gate, a line of luxury cars indicated the exclusivity of the event. Asher stepped out of his car, followed by Aberon and Luciana. The three of them walked toward the main hall, accompanied by sparkling lights and elegant orchestral music.Entering the hall, Asher was immediately captivated by the mansion's luxurious interior. The high ceiling with crystal chandeliers radiating glittering light, walls adorned with classical artwork, and gleaming marble floors. Around him, guests in glamorous attire, top conglomerates, and celebrities mingled while enjoying drinks and canapés served by the waitstaff.Asher walked further in, admiring every detail of the mansion's interior design. His eyes traced the golden ornaments decorating the walls and ceiling, and the beautiful paintings depicting the history and wealth of the Pervaz family. Asher understood why his dad asked him to coll

The party continued, and the atmosphere grew even livelier. Aberon was busy chatting with his business friends, while Luciana mingled with the wives of the tycoons, including Agnesry Pervaz, the hostess for the evening.Asher sipped his drink, his eyes narrowing as he noticed Cody Halbert walking toward Aberon. Cody greeted the conglomerates warmly, trying to impress them. Seeing this, Asher smirked. After being rejected, Cody was now trying to curry favor again.Cody forced a smile as he joined the circle of renowned businessmen. He seemed to be making a great effort to fit in and get closer to Aberon when they were alone."Mr. Aberon, did you know that your son, Asher, and my daughter Olivia attended the same university?" Cody said in a casual tone, attempting to open a more personal topic of conversation.At that moment, Asher approached and joined the group, prompting Aberon to gently pat his shoulder. "Ah, Asher, join us," Aberon said kindly."Mr. Cody was just telling us about h

Olivia went home feeling angry, her frustration clear on her face. Cody Halbert, walking beside her with a tense expression, finally broke the silence in the car."Olivia, we need to talk," he said seriously. "Our company is in big trouble. The funds are depleted, and we'll be broke if we don't find a solution soon."Olivia whimpered, tears welling up in her eyes. "I don't want to be poor, Dad. I can't bear it. I'd be so ashamed if that happened."Cody sighed deeply and placed a hand on Olivia's shoulder. "Listen, you need to stay beautiful and charm the sons of other tycoons. If you can't get Asher, find someone even wealthier."Olivia was silent for a moment, then remembered Darren. "What about Darren?"Cody snapped, "Forget Darren! Find someone else. Someone much richer and more influential."Olivia nodded slowly, feeling pressured but also aware that she needed to act quickly. "Okay, I'll find someone wealthier."Cody nodded, satisfied with Olivia's response. "Good. We don't have

Morning at Dixon Corporation began with the bustle of activity. Employees were busy with their respective tasks, phones rang incessantly, and the sound of keyboard typing filled the air. Asher walked into the office area with a steady stride, and the atmosphere instantly changed. Employees who saw Asher immediately bowed their heads, showing their respect and admiration.Beside Asher, Kailos walked calmly, explaining the current situation. "Dixon's subsidiary out of town is experiencing problems, Mr. Asher. They are facing a serious investment manipulation case."Asher nodded, his eyes remaining focused ahead. "Ensure the audit team gets there immediately and conducts a thorough investigation. We can't let this tarnish our reputation.""It's already in progress, Mr. Asher. The team is on their way," Kailos replied, flipping through the files in his hand.Upon reaching his office, Asher immediately sat in his large, comfortable chair. He looked at Kailos seriously. "How about the hotel
The Billionaire Student After Breakup CHAPTER 31
Asher stepped out of the office calmly, his eyes focused on the goal of meeting the client. Kailos followed faithfully behind him, keeping a distance but remaining alert. Suddenly, in the middle of the lobby, appeared William, Asher's most disapproving uncle.William stared at Asher with a look full of hatred. Their steps halted, creating a palpable tension in the air. William walked closer to Asher, tilting his body slightly to whisper in Asher's ear. His voice was low but full of threats, "You will never be able to put me in prison."Asher grinned, his gaze full of unwavering confidence. He replied calmly, yet his words were sharp as knives, "Oh, Uncle William, do you know the difference between you and me? I am always one step ahead. Prepare for your defeat."William's face flushed with emotion, his muscles tensed. Asher glanced cynically before continuing his steps out of the office, leaving William standing there with burning anger. Kailos followed Asher, giving a brief look at W

When the car arrived in front of the restaurant, Asher stepped out confidently. The Highland Haven, with its distinctive Scottish interior design, offered a warm and cozy atmosphere. They were greeted by a waiter who guided them to the table where their new client was already waiting.Their client was a major investor named Jonathan McGregor. Jonathan was a middle-aged man with a strong aura of authority, yet his smile was friendly as he welcomed Asher and Kailos."Mr. Asher, I am pleased to meet you. I have heard a lot about you from Mr. Aberon Dixon. He always speaks highly of you." Jonathan began the conversation with enthusiasm.Asher smiled, "It's a pleasure to meet you too, Mr. Jonathan. I am very grateful to him for recommending me." After some small talk, they began discussing the project that was the focus of this meeting. The project involved the development of an integrated real estate area that included housing, office buildings, and commercial spaces in a strategic locat
The Billionaire Student After Breakup CHAPTER 33
William felt annoyed when he received the news that Asher had successfully completed the real estate project that was supposed to be handled by his son. Anger burned within him, reminding him of how he should have gotten rid of Asher long ago.He was truly disgusted by the boy's behavior. He should have found and eliminated him back then, William thought bitterly.Suddenly, a man with glasses and slicked-back hair knocked on William's office door and informed him of Holmes Alexander's arrival. William allowed him to enter, smiling cynically as he looked at his partner."Is your company doing well?" William asked, making small talk for a moment."It's doing well. I just lost a gold mine from Dixon, not bankrupt like Halbert's company," Holmes answered nonchalantly, leaning back on the couch in William's office."So, the news about that company going bankrupt is true?" William became more interested. He had once invested in Halbert's company projects, but nothing went smoothly."True. T

CHAPTER 139
Asher didn’t go straight back to the mansion. Instead, he went to Alicia’s apartment, as per Aldric’s request. His future father-in-law had informed him that Alicia had locked herself in her apartment ever since the scandal involving Pervaz erupted. Worried about her, Asher decided to check on her himself.Inside the apartment, Asher felt a slight suffocation, as if the air was heavy with prolonged silence. There was no sound except for the ticking of the wall clock and the faint rustling of the chocolate bar the woman was chewing.He sat on the sofa, his back slightly leaning against it, yet the tension in his body was undeniable. His eyes caught every detail in the room—from the scattered pillows on the floor to the empty coffee cup on the table to the almost-finished box of chocolates. But what captured his attention the most was Alicia herself.She looked different. No neatly pressed blazer, no proud stance, no sharp gaze like the ones she wore in business meetings.Alicia sat slo
CHAPTER 138
Asher sat on the sofa, his fingers rhythmically tapping the armrest in a slow, deliberate motion. His gaze occasionally flicked to his watch, waiting for news about the publication of Evelyn Kazylot’s work. He wanted to see how the media and public would react.He had spent the entire day working to restore the hotel’s reputation. After yesterday’s tragedy, room bookings had plummeted, and many guests had canceled their reservations. Headlines were filled with negative speculation, calling Celestial Haven a “cursed hotel” or even hinting at its involvement in Evelyn’s death.But this wasn’t the first time Dixon had faced a storm. And Asher never lost this game.A knock at the door pulled him from his thoughts. Kailos entered, a rare look of satisfaction on his face."Sir, the news is out."Asher took the tablet from Kailos and leaned back on the sofa, scanning the screen swiftly, reading through the articles now dominating online media.Meanwhile, Kailos turned on the TV, and the larg

Asher’s footsteps echoed steadily down the hallway of Pervaz Corporation, but his gaze never left the woman beside him. Alicia walked with a vacant stare, her expression carrying an unease she could not hide.Asher didn’t need to ask. He already knew what was running through her mind. Fear. Shame. Doubt. Alicia was afraid of losing him. Afraid that this scandal would make him leave her.Asher let out a quiet sigh before stopping in his tracks. Alicia, too lost in her thoughts, was forced to halt beside him. Her brows furrowed in confusion when Asher turned to face her, his gaze intense and unwavering."I am not ashamed, Alicia." His voice was calm, yet firm.Alicia’s eyes widened slightly. Her lips parted, but no words came out."Even if your family is caught in this scandal, I will never leave you or break off our engagement."In an instant, the crushing weight in her chest lightened just a little. Alicia’s gaze softened, shifting into something more vulnerable. She had prepared hers
CHAPTER 136
The atmosphere at Pervaz’s office was far from calm. Since morning, security personnel had been busy keeping demonstrators at bay outside. Their shouts echoed into the building, their voices filled with anger. Some held posters reading “Justice for the Experiment Victims!” and “Pervaz Must Be Held Accountable!”Inside, the chaos was just as bad. The Public Relations and Crisis Management divisions were overwhelmed by the nonstop influx of phone calls. Staff members tried to calm the public’s outrage, but nearly no one was willing to listen to their clarifications.Meanwhile, the communications team was scrambling to take down articles tarnishing Pervaz’s name, desperately trying to control the narrative before everything spiraled further out of control. But like a venomous snake, the news continued to spread, no matter how many times they tried to suppress it.The doors to Aldric’s office swung open, revealing Alicia as she stormed inside, her face filled with fury. She strode straigh
CHAPTER 135
The room was dimly lit, casting long shadows along the glass walls that overlooked the now-quiet city. Asher sat in his chair, staring at the pile of documents scattered across his desk—some still sealed, others already read and signed.He leaned back, rubbing his temple with his fingertips. His mind was still preoccupied with his conversation with Aberon earlier."The higher you climb, the more people will try to pull you down."Asher let out a slow breath, his gaze drifting toward the ceiling. Dad was right. There are still so many things I need to be cautious about.Before his thoughts could wander further, a knock on the door broke the silence. Asher straightened up, adjusting his posture."Come in."The door opened, and Joseph stepped inside with a serious expression, his eyes carrying something beyond a routine report."How’s Antony’s situation?" Asher asked immediately, his tone remaining calm, though he had already predicted most of the answer."Antony has officially been thro
CHAPTER 134
Asher sat upright in the black leather chair facing his father’s desk. The air in the room felt warm, mixed with the distinct scent of mahogany wood. The glow from the desk lamp cast soft shadows over the stack of documents Aberon had just handed him.Aberon folded his arms over the desk, his gaze as sharp as ever, though there was a hint of pride reflected in his eyes. “Review it carefully and understand everything. After that, you can decide,” he said, his voice calm yet authoritative.Asher took the documents without haste. He flipped open the first page, his eyes swiftly scanning every detail. The papers contained the construction proposal for Alexander’s former company, now part of Dixon, plans for its merger, and the potential risks that might arise from this move.“So, Dad, you agree with this acquisition?” Asher asked without lifting his gaze from the papers. “I want to merge it with Dixon’s construction sector. That way, we’ll have two main pillars in this industry.”Aberon l
CHAPTER 133
Asher leaned back in his chair, one hand resting on the armrest while the other twirled a pen between his fingers. His sharp eyes studied the woman standing before him. Oriana appeared calm on the surface, but Asher could sense the turmoil vibrating inside her mind—cursing, panicking, desperately searching for an excuse to save herself.A small smile curled on Asher’s lips—not a friendly one, but something laced with irony.“Forgive me, Mr. Dixon.” Oriana’s voice finally broke the silence, slightly hesitant but still striving to sound professional. “Have I done something wrong? Why did you want to meet me?”Kailos, standing beside the desk, placed a stack of documents in front of her. Without any expression, he slid the file toward her with a single firm motion. “You should read it yourself.”Oriana swallowed hard, her fingers trembling as she flipped open the first page. Her eyes moved quickly, scanning through reports of disputes, sabotage, and concrete evidence of her betrayal agai
CHAPTER 132
The sky shifted towards noon as Alicia left Asher’s office. Although their meetings always ended in work discussions, there was something about being around him that made her feel lighter. Maybe it was the way Asher looked at her so calmly, or how his deep voice always gave the impression that he had control over everything.But now, Alicia’s focus shifted to another task. She walked across the gleaming marble floor of a luxury hotel, where her meeting with a client was taking place. Their discussion about marketing and distributing her cosmetic products in major shopping centers went smoothly. Everything seemed perfect.However, as she stepped out of the conference room, her breath hitched for a moment.A man stood in front of her, blocking her way with an all-too-familiar expression—Kaylery Barnnet.Alicia felt a wave of discomfort crawl up her spine. She swallowed hard, forcing a polite smile. “Mr. Barnnet?” Her voice sounded neutral, though there was a slight tremor at the end.Ka
CHAPTER 131
The warm rays of sunlight slipped through the gaps in the curtains of the small room behind the bookshelf in Asher’s office. The space was simple yet cozy, designed for quick rests during late nights at work. But this morning, that warmth felt slightly intrusive. Asher blinked slowly, trying to ignore the light that danced across his face, disappearing for a moment only to return.He let out a soft sigh, his sleep interrupted by something—or rather, someone—moving near the light. Asher didn’t get up immediately, choosing to remain lying down and enjoying the unusual calm. Someone was there.Sitting quietly at the edge of the bed was Alicia. She wore a light blue blouse paired with a cream pencil skirt that elegantly accentuated her silhouette. Her hair, usually loose, was tied back in a low ponytail, with a few strands softly framing her face. The sunlight reflected off her fingers as she played with the curtain, casting small shadows on Asher’s face.Alicia smiled gently, her eyes a
