The meeting with the board of directors lasted for an extended period, and the atmosphere in the room was tense. The board members sat around a long table, each carrying different perspectives and arguments. The factions of William Dixon and Aberon Dixon exchanged glares, with voices growing louder as the debate heated up. Dissonant voices and sharp arguments echoed throughout the room, intensifying the tension.William Dixon sat at the end of the table, his face flushed with anger, and his every movement radiated fury. "This is unfair, Aberon! I’ve contributed so much to this company, and now you want to take everything away from me?!" William shouted angrily, slamming his hand on the table.Oberon, with a calm yet firm gaze, looked back at William. "Your contributions cannot excuse the violations you’ve committed, William. This company needs a leader who is clean and trustworthy, not someone who exploits their position for personal gain."The tension escalated as board members from
The news of William Dixon's arrest was still ablaze across various media outlets. Every news channel and every internet page was filled with images of William being arrested, his face twisted with anger and fear as he was handcuffed and dragged out of the boardroom. The flashing lights of cameras capturing that moment seemed to spotlight the downfall of a man who once wielded great power. In a dark room filled with cigar smoke, Holmes Alexander stared at the television screen in front of him with eyes full of rage. The news of William Dixon's arrest played repeatedly, each second like a painful lash to Holmes. The middle-aged man clenched his fists, feeling the burning disappointment and anger within him. William had made promises to him—tempting promises of money and power. But now, those promises were nothing more than dust in the wind. Holmes slammed the table in front of him so hard that the whiskey glass on it almost fell. "Damn, bastard! You betrayed us, William!" he muttered i
After spending a warm dinner at The Ledbury, Alicia smiled and suggested a spontaneous idea. "How about we take a walk for a while? The sidewalks around here are beautiful at night," she invited enthusiastically.Asher nodded in agreement, his smile widening again as they left the restaurant and stepped onto the sidewalk bathed in light. Around them, skyscrapers loomed high, surrounded by twinkling lights that created a magical atmosphere in the night.They walked side by side under the dim streetlights, a comfortable silence filling the space between them. Asher quietly admired Alicia, watching every movement she made and every smile she gave. Asher’s mind kept wondering why he hadn’t met this woman sooner. Why was it only now that he realized how special Alicia was?Asher tried to push the thought away, but it was hard not to feel curious. Seeing Alicia talk so much while smiling, Asher wondered what was going on in her mind. Did she have the same feelings? Or was this all just a fa
Asher stood in front of the large mirror in his room, carefully inspecting his appearance. The black formal suit he wore fit him perfectly, giving off an aura of authority and professionalism. A crisp white shirt and a dark tie completed his impeccable look. Today was an important day; he would be visiting BOWWS Company for the first time as the new leader, and he wanted to ensure that his appearance reflected the power and control he possessed.Asher took a deep breath, observing his reflection intently. His gaze was sharp, full of determination. He knew that this visit was not just a simple introduction, but also a statement—that he, Asher Dixon, was the new ruler who would lead the company toward a better future. After feeling satisfied with his appearance, he turned and left the room, heading towards the dining room.In the dining room, a warm atmosphere immediately greeted him. Luciana stood there with a gentle smile on her face. As soon as she saw Asher, she approached and kisse
"It doesn't seem right for young Dixon to snatch away his cousin's rightful inheritance," Liamo mocked sharply.Seeing Asher remain silent only emboldened Liamo Gretty further, spurring him to bombard Asher with even more scornful words, convinced that he could force Asher to retreat. A faint smile remained on Asher’s face, as if Liamo’s words were nothing more than a passing breeze. Kailos, standing beside Asher, watched the situation with vigilance, ready to act if things escalated.However, before Liamo could continue his taunts, the conference room door swung open forcefully, and Waldric Dixon entered with confident strides, a satisfied grin on his face."Am I right on time?" Waldric exclaimed with a tone full of mockery, his eyes gleaming with arrogance. "I wouldn’t want to miss this moment."Asher turned slowly, his gaze meeting Waldric’s, who now stood before him with the sly smile he knew all too well. Waldric walked closer, his eyes scanning the room before finally settling b
Waldric stood motionless in the middle of the increasingly empty room, his hands clenched tightly, trying to contain the raging emotions within him. Every vein in his neck appeared tense, his eyes filled with boiling hatred as he watched Asher leave. This defeat felt incredibly painful, and he felt humiliated in front of everyone, especially the employees he had hoped would support him.Waldric glanced toward Liamo, who was standing in the corner of the room as if giving a clear signal without needing to say a word. Their eyes met, and though reluctant, Liamo understood Waldric's intent. With a subtle nod of his head, Liamo began to instruct the employees and other directors to leave the room. One by one, they exited, leaving Waldric alone with his overflowing anger.Within himself, Waldric swore to repay all this treatment. He would find a way to destroy Asher, even if it meant taking a darker and more dangerous path. His hatred now matched his ambition—perhaps even greater. Waldric
Asher leaned his back on the oversized chair, his gaze fixed on the ceiling of the office. His eyes stared blankly, but his mind was filled with speculations that kept disturbing his peace. The threatening letter he had received not long ago kept spinning in his mind, like a puzzle that demanded to be solved. Asher tried to connect the dots in his mind, remembering every detail that might give him a clue. Asher's hunch pointed to someone who had a past with Alicia, someone who might feel threatened or have an old grudge. However, he couldn't jump to conclusions. It wasn't just a matter of guessing, it was a matter of ascertaining who was really behind the threat.Asher's thoughts deepened when there was a sudden knock on the door. The sound broke the silence, bringing Asher back from his reverie. The door opened slowly, and Joseph, the man he could always count on, appeared from behind it. With steady steps, Joseph walked towards Asher, the man's eyes filled with respect and caution
Asher left his office with determined steps, catching Kailos off guard as he quickly followed behind. Asher’s mind was focused on one thing: David Sinclair. The glaring error in the earlier report was too significant to ignore, and Asher wanted to hear directly from Sinclair how it could have happened. He headed to the floor where Sinclair’s office was located, his eyes sharp like an eagle hunting its prey.Upon arriving at Sinclair’s office door, Asher knocked once, then opened the door and walked in without waiting for a response. Meanwhile, Kailos chose to wait outside, not daring to enter without Asher’s command.David Sinclair, a middle-aged man with hair graying at the temples, looked startled when Asher entered unannounced. He immediately stood up from his chair, his face showing a hint of confusion."Mr. Dixon," he greeted, trying to hide his nervousness behind a forced smile. "Is there something I can assist you with?"Asher looked at David Sinclair with cold eyes, wasting no
