Asher had already prepared himself, wearing a black suit complete with a matching tie. He straightened his collar in the mirror, ensuring his appearance was perfect before heading to the office. That morning, despite all the preparations and plans, many things were swirling in Asher's mind.

During the journey to the office, Asher found himself daydreaming. His gaze was fixed out the window, watching the busy morning street scenes. Street-side shops were opening their doors, vendors were setting up their goods, and people were walking for their purposes. All of this made Asher reflect on his life's journey, the challenges he had faced, and the future he wanted to achieve.

Asher recalled the meeting with Alicia and how the information he had obtained from her had opened his eyes to many hidden matters. However, a doubt lingered deep in his heart, making Asher feel uneasy. He questioned his trust in Alicia. Was she a genuinely good person or merely wearing a mask like Olivia? The issues

    The busy office atmosphere slowly turned tense as the company's audit team entered Asher's office. Not only was the audit team deployed, but several lawyers trusted by Aberon Dixon also entered Asher's office, causing the employees to exchange questioning glances.The employees began to whisper, throwing various curious comments:"I'm curious, the audit team and lawyers entering Mr. Asher's office. Is there another problem in the subsidiary?""Ah, seeing them gather makes me feel scared. If the audit team is involved, the problem must be very serious.""Could there be another embezzlement? Or even money laundering?""Shh, don't be loud. Lower your voice. You know some executives are very opposed to Mr. Asher's leadership. Maybe they're scared because they know they've cheated in the company!"Mr. Thimphon, who happened to overhear various gossip along the corridor from the marketing department to customer service, felt increasingly uneasy. Fear gripped him upon hearing that Asher had

    For three days, the audit team worked tirelessly to catch the greedy individuals who were never satisfied. Asher was also busy with various projects thrown at him, even handling issues with the subsidiary companies himself rather than relying on the CEOs there. He felt exhausted, but his determination to uphold justice within the company burned brightly.During a meeting, Asher brought up the status and important roles of those in high positions within the company. His voice was firm and authoritative. "I will no longer tolerate anyone committing crimes to satisfy their own greed in this company. We must maintain our integrity and reputation."The atmosphere in the meeting was tense, making some of them exchange uneasy glances. They knew Asher was serious. The crimes Asher referred to included abusing authority, money laundering, embezzlement, and possibly other illegal activities.Everyone there saw a reflection of Aberon.

    News of Thimphon's dismissal without honor and subsequent investigation by the prosecutor's office made William furious. Since Asher's rise to power, all of William's efforts and schemes had felt futile. He felt a burning sense of helplessness in his chest. All the plans he had devised over the years to maintain his power now seemed to crumble before his eyes. Even the support from his brother was never received; William despised Aberon and Aberon's descendants.William was sitting in his spacious office, surrounded by mahogany wood walls and rows of business books. His mind was in chaos, filled with frustration and uncontrollable anger. Just then, the door to his office opened, and Holmes Alexander entered with a face full of despair.William's eyes followed Holmes as he approached, his gaze sharp. Without asking, he knew why Holmes had come to his office. He must be asking for help from the chaos created by Asher."William, please," said Holmes with a trembling voice, his eyes full

    Asher stared intently at Alicia. It seemed like for the last week, he didn’t have any free time. There were so many things he needed to do to finish his work."It seems like I'm quite busy. If I get some free time, I'll let you know," Asher said, feeling a bit guilty.Alicia nodded in understanding. She knew that Asher was a leader and always busy with company matters. "Alright. I'll wait for your good news."Alicia got up from her seat, ready to leave. Before going, she told Asher that she wanted to stop by the marketing director's office to discuss something. Asher agreed with a nod.After Alicia left, Asher leaned back on the sofa, closing his eyes for a moment to ease the fatigue gnawing at him. Then he glanced at his watch, showing it was late afternoon. It had been a long and stressful day, and he hadn't had any rest.Suddenly, the phone on his desk rang. Asher reached for it and answered with a serious tone. "Asher here.""Mr. Asher, this is Joseph." The voice on the other end

    Asher was still at the hotel, specifically in a special room known only to Joseph and Kailos. In that room, Asher rechecked the monitor screen displaying 3D movements outside the hotel. His eyes remained focused, trying to track what was happening out there.The opening of Asher's hotel was a huge success, with many tourists staying at his hotel, adding to his pride. Although it was just a continuation project, there were many changes that Asher had implemented.Suddenly, Kailos received a phone call. The man's face turned serious as he listened to a report from the security team. "Mr. Asher, the person sabotaging your hotel is Christian, the same one who tried to disrupt the hotel opening a few weeks ago."Asher frowned, staring at Kailos intensely. "Really? Where is Christian now?""He is being chased, sir. Our security team is pursuing him," Kailos answered firmly.Asher nodded, his mind racing. "Good. I will try to track Christian's whereabouts with the data I noted earlier."Ashe

    Christian did not leave immediately when Joseph dragged him out of the old building. Instead, he returned, holding a knife from his jacket pocket. With eyes full of rage, Christian ran towards Asher. However, before he could reach Asher and stab him in the stomach, Wilson intercepted him, twisting Christian's right arm behind his back and bringing him to the ground."Argh! Damn you! I will get back at you, damn Asher!" Christian screamed in fury, spitting in Asher's direction.Kailos quickly moved the knife away from the vicinity. The situation, which could have turned much worse, was averted, but the tension in the air thickened.Seeing Christian struggling under his feet, Asher knelt, staring sharply at Christian. Asher's hand gripped the man's chin, forcing Christian to look directly at him. However, Christian quickly turned his face away, avoiding Asher's rough grip."You think you can stay in your position, huh?!" Christian continued to vent his frustrations. Since Asher took ove

    Asher didn’t go straight home to his mansion. There were a few things he needed to take care of. Memories of Darren begging flashed in his mind, bringing a satisfied smile to his face. Asher loosened his tie, his eyes watching the road ahead, trying to stay focused. He deliberately chose not to use a driver, preferring to drive himself.A short while later, Asher’s luxurious car stopped at an old abandoned building far from the city. There was something important Asher needed to do here, especially to teach a lesson to those who had betrayed him.Asher got out of the car, having placed his formal jacket in the back. He wore only a white shirt with a loose tie. His jet-black hair looked disheveled, with the gentle breeze slightly ruffling it.Asher’s steps took him into the 17-story old building. The night atmosphere around the building felt eerie. The dim neon lights added a gloomy and tense impression.Joseph, who was trusted as Asher’s bodyguard, bowed respectfully as his master ent

    Asher blinked as sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains. The noise outside his room forced him to open his eyes and walk towards the knocking door.Joseph, Asher's trusted confidant and right-hand man after Kailos, stood in the doorway. His face appeared neutral, but the emotions behind his eyes were evident. This made Asher frown, waiting for Joseph to deliver the news."Sir, you should get ready to head to the office. Kailos has been trying to reach you repeatedly," Joseph said firmly."Is there a problem?" Asher asked, rubbing his face in frustration.Asher's gaze shifted across the hall, seeing Aberon hurrying, followed by Wilson and five bodyguards. Asher glanced back at Joseph."Tell me. What's the issue this time?" Asher asked, ready to confront those causing trouble.Joseph bowed deeply. After taking a slow breath, Joseph lifted his head to look at Asher. "Sir, the ArgonChem production plant caught fire last night. Mr. Aberon is heading to the site. Meanwhile, Kail

    The evening sky darkened over the Dixon office as Asher returned from his meeting with Alicia. The usual calm of his workspace was replaced by a tense atmosphere that seemed to hang heavy in the air.Joseph stood in front of Asher’s desk, his face strained as he reported the situation with Antony. “Sir, Antony’s condition suddenly became critical. Someone disguised as a doctor tampered with his IV fluid. Thankfully, the medical team detected something was wrong before it was too late.”Asher listened silently, his expression emotionless. Leaning back in his chair, he idly turned the ring on his finger—a small habit that only appeared when he was deep in thought.“Do we have any reliable footage or witnesses?” Asher asked in a low voice, his tone sharp and commanding.Joseph nodded. “We’re reviewing the CCTV. So far, we’re certain this is directly linked to Kaylery. The security team also discovered that the tampered fluid came from a private lab owned by someone connected to Waldric.”

    Alicia’s office exuded a modern and elegant atmosphere. Glass walls provided a sweeping view of the city, while a large wooden desk at the center of the room was neatly organized with stacks of documents. 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

    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. Defeat after defeat had struck Kaylery, igniting his already massive ego. But beneath his fury, his mind was still working. He wouldn’t lose this easily. These setbacks were only temporary—a small piece of a larger plan he was crafting.A knock at the door briefly distracted Kayler

    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,

    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. Complex graphics moved rapidly, displaying security data, guest movement patterns, and advanced monitoring systems. 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 party grew livelier. Guests chatted, laughed, and indulged in the luxurious dishes served at every corner of the ballroom. Soft classical orchestra music filled the air, complementing the brilliance of the crystal lights that illuminated the room. 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. His left hand gripped a glass of whiskey on the table tightly, while his right hand clenched the edge of his chair.In one swift motion, he lifted his whiskey glass and drank it down to the last drop. The burning sensation of the drink wasn’t enough to distract him from the storm of emotions in his mind. His eyes remained on Alicia, glowing beside Asher.“Are you jealous?” A low, mocking voice sounded from

    After finishing at the branch office, Asher returned to complete various tasks at the main office. He sat upright in his chair, signing documents one by one with skilled hands. The meeting with another company, which had just concluded, left the conference room filled with reports and data. The atmosphere felt slightly lighter now, though the tension hadn’t entirely dissipated.Kailos stood beside him, occasionally glancing at his watch, waiting for Asher to finish signing the remaining documents. Now and then, Asher would glance up at Kailos before refocusing on the stack of papers still awaiting his signature.Before he could finish the last document, the sound of approaching footsteps echoed. Joseph entered the room with a serious expression, holding a tablet in his hand. Behind him, the door closed tightly, ensuring there would be no outside interruptions.“We’ve found Antony, Sir,” Joseph said as he carefully handed over the tablet. His face was serious, full of urgency.Asher di

    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

    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. Once the call ended, he stepped into the room.“Mom, is it necessary to hold that event?” Asher asked, his low tone startling Luciana.The older woman flinched
