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."

    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 atmosphere felt quiet in Asher's room. Alicia's words successfully made Asher silent. He didn’t understand Alicia's meaning at all. Was it wrong for them to meet because of work?Alicia noticed the awkwardness caused by her words. "Ah, I mean... surprisingly, we always meet just to talk about work," she said with a laugh, trying to ease the tension by showing her teeth.Asher cleared his throat, looking at the corner of the room before returning his gaze to Alicia. "So, if your product doesn’t launch on the target date, what will happen?" he asked seriously, changing the topic to reduce the awkwardness.Alicia took a deep breath, her face turning serious. "It will be a big blow to the company, especially since my team has invested a lot of time and resources in preparing for this launch. But I believe we can find a solution together. Besides, I’m not just producing lipstick and powder for my cosmetics; Mr. Victor and I are also producing perfume."Asher looked at her intently. "Re

    Alicia paused for a moment, then quickly nodded and looked at Asher. "He's an old friend, we went to the same school and even the same university. I just know his name and face. If you're asking if we're close, I don't think so." Asher nodded in response. He felt a strong aura of hostility from Kaylery Barnnet. He didn't know why Kaylery looked at him that way. The last time he saw him at the hotel opening party, Kaylery's aura also seemed unfriendly. "By the way, if ArgonChem still can't continue your production, would you want me to shift your products to BOWWS Company?" Asher tried to persuade her again. He had just received a message from Kailos on his phone, saying that it would take a long time for ArgonChem to resume production. Alicia sighed, looking intently at Asher's face. A smile reappeared on her face. "Alright, I'll leave everything to you. I trust you, Asher." "Thank you, Alicia. I'm just worried that your products and the project you're working on will be delaye

    Quickly, Joseph ran out of the room which looked like a room, towards the place where Doctor Ben was resting. Joseph was annoyed that he was missed, even though there was only him and a few bodyguards that he had handpicked in this house. How could an intruder have managed to poison Christian?The situation was getting critical. Time seemed to race every second that passed. Asher stared intently at Christian's sprawled body, white foam still coming out of his mouth. Emotions burned in his mind, realizing that this was a war. Someone deliberately wanted to shut Christian's mouth. However, Christian himself wanted to share his information even if it meant getting beaten up first."Damn, he wants to see me scared," muttered Asher, suspecting that this was just the enemy's plan to bully him.Joseph returned with Doctor Ben who was carrying his medical bag. The middle-aged man with thick glasses immediately approached, kneeling beside Christian. Quickly, Ben began to treat Christian's seiz

    The next day, Asher returned to work with his mind still occupied by the events of the previous day. An unknown person had contacted him, issuing a warning. To Asher, it was a sign that someone who disliked him was lurking and watching his every move.Asher's gaze shifted to each face in the meeting room. Today’s meeting was about continuing the project, addressing the fire incident from yesterday, and dealing with the BOWWS Company’s chemical leak case from a few years ago. All the executives and relevant employees were present at the meeting.For some reason, Asher suspected everyone in the room. Someone was playing games with him, even issuing warnings. If only he had the power to read their minds, perhaps he would know who among them were allies and who were foes.Even Waldric, who usually never attended central meetings, was present in the room. Several executives who were friends of Mr. Thimphon also attended, sharing their opinions as the discussion continued."Asher, what are

    "So, what’s the progress of the investigation? I want to know the truth. Why did the ArgonChem production plant catch fire?"Asher's deep and firm voice echoed in the spacious room. Behind him, numerous thick books were neatly arranged, and in the center of the room, a sofa and a table formed a circle. He had deliberately transformed one of the rooms, previously used for confining Christian, into his office.Joseph stood straight in front of Asher, holding several documents. "Mr. Wilson's Dixon security team informed me that the fire was caused by someone deliberately pouring gasoline on flammable materials. A large man was caught on the production delivery car’s dashboard camera," Joseph said, showing a paper with a photo from the hidden camera in the factory vehicle.Asher looked at the paper, narrowing his eyes to try and recognize the man’s height and build. "What else did you find?"Joseph hesitated for a moment, but he knew Asher needed to know every detail about Dixon's subsidi

    Asher spent his days immersed in work, tirelessly completing various projects. He despised delays and felt restless if tasks remained unfinished or failed to meet his high standards. He was like a mad dog, obsessively driven by his job.The meeting room was nearly empty now, leaving behind only a few scattered papers on the table. Asher adjusted the sleeves of his suit with a relaxed motion, though his eyes betrayed a constant tension that never truly disappeared. He could still hear faint echoes in his mind—the thoughts of those who had earlier been busy praising the success of LuseCraft's new product."Remarkable work, Mr. Asher.""I never expected him to come this far.""I guess I need to start sucking up to him now, or my career is over."Asher suppressed a bitter smile. These were the same people who had once belittled him. Now? They scrambled to gain his favor. His fingers brushed the magical ring on his finger—a tool that seemed almost custom-made to give him the power of silen

    Asher sat in the company’s boardroom, positioned at the head of a long table adorned with piles of documents and an open laptop. His sharp eyes tracked the presentation displayed on the projector screen, where Kailos explained the potential of the LuseCraft and Rudwick partnership. Kailos’s calm voice filled the room as he outlined the opportunities this collaboration could bring.Yet, Asher’s thoughts drifted elsewhere. He wasn’t just listening to his employees’ spoken words—he was hearing the unspoken ones, the thoughts streaming loudly from the minds of those seated around the table. Ever since discovering the magical ring, Asher’s newfound ability had proven useful, though it sometimes felt more like a curse. Today was one of those aggravating days."Rudwick? Such a small company? There’s nothing to expect from a place like that. Honestly, this is idiotic.""Why does Asher keep wasting the company’s resources on this? William would never have taken a risk like this.""He’s way too

    Asher slowly removed his tie and tossed it onto the small table beside the sofa. The formal jacket he had worn earlier had already been draped over the backrest of the sofa, and now his body sank into the soft support. He massaged the stiffness in his neck, exhaling deeply, as though trying to relieve burdens that were not just physical. The room was silent, with only the faint ticking of a wall clock breaking the stillness.Asher’s thoughts wandered, but they did not settle on the numbers in his reports or the plans for developing new construction projects under Dixon’s subsidiary. Instead of focusing on those documents, his mind drifted to Alicia. Her name resurfaced in his thoughts, as if it occupied a special space that constantly demanded his attention. Asher couldn’t push it away.A small smile curved on his lips as the memory of their kiss resurfaced. His lips moved unconsciously, as though tasting again the warmth and softness that had touched them that day. "Crazy," Asher mur

    In the dim corner of a bar, Waldric gulped down his drink quickly, trying to drown the bitterness of his life with every sip. His mind was full, chaotic—Asher had discarded him just like that, like a pedestrian stepping on filth in the street without a care. Waldric's gaze was filled with hatred and smoldering anger, but underneath, there was also a gnawing sense of frustration.A cold voice interrupted his thoughts. "There's no point in staying here, sulking, Waldric."Waldric looked up, narrowing his eyes at the figure standing before him—Kaylery Barnnet. A thin, meaningful smile played on Kaylery's face, his gaze like a snake ready to strike."What do you want?" Waldric's tone was defensive, his voice tinged with curiosity.Kaylery chuckled softly, unbothered, and slowly took the seat beside him uninvited. "My intention is simple. You want revenge, don’t you? Seems like we share a common enemy, Waldric."Waldric straightened up, feeling skeptical. "So, you just want to offer help?

    Alicia buried her face in the pillow, her body squirming with embarrassment on the bed. The memory of the moments with Asher earlier felt so vivid, replaying in her mind like a never-ending movie. "What did I say earlier?" she thought, frustrated with herself."At least I managed to hide my feelings. I don't want Asher to feel disgusted seeing me act like that," she muttered. Alicia let out a long sigh, then stared at the ceiling of her room."What's wrong with me?" she asked softly, her voice filled with confusion. She closed her eyes again for a moment, imagining Asher’s handsome and calm face every time they met."I want Asher."That whisper felt too real, always echoing in her mind so clearly. It wasn’t just about Asher’s physical attractiveness, but his charismatic aura and decisiveness that captivated Alicia. He was a man who could lead, who could take control, and that was something Alicia had always dreamed of.A small smile formed on her lips as Asher’s image appeared in her

    Asher stepped into the lobby of Dixon's headquarters with a firm stride, while Kailos waited in the corner, his face full of questions. There was a clear curiosity in Kailos's eyes about the outcome of Asher's visit to BOWWS Company.As Asher approached, Kailos couldn’t hold back from asking, "How did it go, sir?"Asher simply gave a brief smile, one whose meaning few could understand. "Smooth. BOWWS Company is now in my hands," he replied with a tone full of confidence.Kailos, who had already suspected this victory, smiled with satisfaction. "I’m glad to hear it," he said sincerely, walking alongside Asher as he began discussing other important matters. "Sir, there’s something else we need to talk about—regarding LuseCraft and your upcoming meeting with Aldric Pervaz."Hearing Aldric Pervaz's name, Asher's steps slowed. His eyebrows furrowed deeply. "Why does he want to meet with me?"Kailos paused briefly, clearing his throat lightly before answering. "He wishes to discuss a potent

    Asher's schedule had changed. After his visit to LuseCraft, he was supposed to attend a meeting about renewing a contract with Jonathan. However, due to Waldric's insistence on meeting to settle the inheritance dispute, Asher had no choice but to meet him and end it as soon as possible.Asher stood facing the large window, his posture straight and his expression neutral, though the atmosphere around him felt tense. Beside him was Waldric, staring at him with eyes full of anger, as if he wanted to devour Asher alive. Waldric was clearly displeased with the changes at BOWWS Company, especially the fact that the company was now under Asher’s control.“Does being the heir give you the right to act so arrogantly?” Waldric began, his voice cold and full of hatred. “Don’t you feel greedy, Asher?”Asher merely raised one eyebrow, remaining unaffected by Waldric’s outburst. His eyes continued to gaze out the window, overlooking the courtyard of BOWWS Company, watching the employees busy with t

    The soft rays of the sun slipped through the gap in the curtains of Asher's room, gradually warming the space. Asher opened his eyes, feeling refreshed after a long sleep—something he rarely got these days. He stretched his muscles, then slowly sat up, leaning his back against the headboard. His thoughts immediately drifted to the previous night—the moment when he unintentionally kissed Alicia.His lips curled into a small, almost hidden smile. For a moment, he covered his face with his hands, feeling slightly embarrassed. "What have I done?" he thought. But the more he tried to ignore it, the clearer that moment replayed in his mind.His memory took him back to when he could hear Alicia's thoughts and feelings spilling out, full of confusion and wonder. Those voices, which usually bothered him, now made him chuckle softly. He could hear how nervous and embarrassed Alicia had felt, yet at the same time, her heart had raced after their kiss.“She didn’t push me away, did she? In fact…,

    Asher felt the growing awkwardness as Heinry deliberately left the two of them alone at the dining table. The atmosphere in the restaurant, which was previously filled with business conversations, now felt quiet, with just him and Alicia. Even though they often met, it felt different when it was just the two of them. Asher tried to stay calm, though Alicia’s thoughts continued to whisper in his ear. He wished he could stop his ability for a moment, to focus on the conversation, not the mix of thoughts running through her mind. Alicia glanced at him occasionally, as if waiting for Asher to start talking. Feeling awkward because of the sudden silence, Alicia finally decided to shift the topic. "What about BOWWS Company, Asher? Have you fully taken control?" she asked, her voice soft, but there was a hint of curiosity she couldn't hide. Asher sighed and placed his nearly empty glass of water down. "It should be settled," he replied, looking at Alicia. "But Waldric is still trying t
