Rise of the Rich and Powerful Jamie Ashford
On the day Jamie lost his mother to cancer, he also lost his only accommodation and his girlfriend. Years of torture, humiliation and servitude from his stepfather and stepbrothers, Jamie was nothing more than a miserable bastard to the Reynolds, one they so desperately needed to do away with. His mother’s death was their perfect opportunity as his stepfather evicted him from his house, abused him and his dead mother publicly, and ordered the doctor to sell her corpse to organ harvesters.
His stepbrothers made a spectacle of him and his dead mother, treating them as though they were worse than animals. And to crown their hall of humiliation, they took his girlfriend and cost him his job. With everything lost, there was nothing to live for anymore. Jamie owed the hospital over $100,000 and his boss over the same amount. His life was at risk, his existence was meaningless, and everything was set against him…
Except for a sudden alert of $10,000,000,000 and a call from the world’s richest and most powerful man, claiming to be his grandfather. Jamie wasn’t a bastard after all; he had a family—a rich and powerful family at that—and he was their rightful heir.
With a net worth of tens of trillions of dollars and the power to shut down the world with the snap of his finger…
What fate awaits all those who did him wrong?
What end has he destined for those who mocked his dead mother and her dignity?
What was in the heart of the trillionaire for those who made his life hell and paraded their measly change over him?
Revenge is best served cold…Or whatever temperature the Rich and Powerful Jamie Ashford wants!

This is bad for Conan Grain's team.Conan Grain was also seeing what was unfolding outside the vehicle, and he couldn't help but feel his fear rise into panic. This attacker can't be killed with guns, which means that they would most likely be subjected to whatever the mysterious guy came to do with them.The clad man turned to where the bullets were coming fro

Chapter: Chapter 324 The ride was getting slightly peaceful, with fewer cars on these exclusive roads within LA, when they came across something.It was like something heavy was dropped from an incredibly high altitude, and with such force that it caused a rumble that they all felt.With the headlights on, the drivers of the entire convoy caught this flashing figure dropping right in front of them.But it was too late, at least, for the SUV that was in front of Conan Grain’s car.The blurry object that had landed in front of the first SUV caused a collision with it, and surprisingly the brunt of the heavy impact was borne by the SUV, which was overturned as it slammed into the air, and then came crashing down in the road on its head.By now, the other SUVs and Conan Grain's car have come to a screeching halt. Conan's phone was sent flying in his hands before he realized that something was wrong. He leaned forward to look out the front windshield with a frown. “What's going on?! What happened?!”The driv

The phone she's known to use to chat people up has been confiscated by Finn Curt, the leading manager on her team.Jamie wasn't dumb, though. He knew that Finn must have done it on the order of President Donald Dump, to ensure that no more trouble was caused.With the $79 million customized phone in Jamie's hands, courtesy of AS-Crows Tech Corp, he was able to check if Arlene had a second phone, a more private one where he could reach her.She did, and he was able to break through any firewall without triggering any alarm. With this unique phone, Jamie could easily break into the most secure crypto chain wallet and empty it without leaving any tracks behind.But he

Chapter: Chapter 322 Conan reached out to hold Arlene, refusing to let her go as he pulled her hot to his chest, whispering into her ears. “Honestly, though, you've got to admit that you sorta cheated on me, right?”Arlene composed herself, still feeling a bit of pain from what Conan's bodyguard had almost done to her. “Look, we were only ever going to be on-screen partners, so why are you making such a big deal over my real-life boyfriend?”Conan chuckled with a look of incredulity. “You're joking, right? Our generation of Internet sensations in Hollywood has always given something extra, a hint of exclusivity to demands for the fans. You should have never dated a random man, and if you did, it should have been with someone that the shippers of fandoms would be able to try behind. Yet….”He refused to say anymore, finally letting go of Arlene, ignoring her as her manager, Finn Curt, rushed over to check on her broken wrist. Instead, he smiled teasingly at President Donald Dump. “As for you, President, I

She couldn’t just let the man she really liked to just walk away, disrespected like that.President Donald stared at the backs of Jamie and his crew walking out of the meeting room, and he couldn't help but stare longingly. He didn't see the people leaving, he saw the promised billions of dollars in investments fading along with those shrinking backs.The sense of loss pissed the man off, so he took out his anger on Arlene, seeing her glaring at him. “What? Arlene, don't you dare give me that look.”He pointed at her. “I still haven't settled the score with you yet! How dare you recklessly get into a relationship with a nobody like that?! You didn't even think about the cost of damage control that it would take from us to deal with the aftermath.”Ar

Chapter: Chapter 320 Picking up the call, the president of Chalkers Agency spoke in hushed tones with the CEO of Pluribus Agency for a couple of minutes.From everyone's point of view, the call was simple and their air wasn't tense at all. But for Jamie, Stella, Tom, and the soldiers of The Bridge Crow who were in this meeting room with everyone else, they heard the whole conversation with their heightened hearing ability, as well as picking up on the micro changes in the expressions and overall demeanor of President Donald while on that phone call.Admittedly, the Chalkers Agency's president was very good at controlling his emotions when it truly mattered, but he really couldn't hide much from the highly evolved and heavily trained eyes and ears of these AS99 agents in disguise.Jamie and his crew saw it all. President Donald was incredibly pissed off having to listen to President Harvey Walker of Pluribus Agency remind him that their agencies have always been United on all fronts. So Donald should be

Chapter: Chapter 557: The Price of LoyaltyThe days following his confrontation with Mark felt like an endless storm to Justin. The stench of betrayal hung over him like a cloud, darker and heavier than any he had ever known. It was not just Mark's actions that wounded him; it was the realization that even those he trusted most were capable of turning against him. His empire, his family, the people he had built everything for, none of them were safe.In the quieter times when Justin wasn't surrounded by the unrelenting demands of his empire, the loneliness of the entire thing settled on him,In the silence of his penthouse, the cold glass walls offer no comfort. He knew this day would come. But it's still painful. The idea that someone he trusted, people who have stood by him for many years, can decide to betray him.It cuts deeper than any opponent that he had ever faced. But he didn't have the leisure to brood over it. The fight with Ethan was far from over, and Mark was just one casualty in this war. The loss of loyalty

Chapter: Chapter 556: ReckoningThe room was silent when Justin re-entered. His expression was cold and disbelieving. There was no need for an explanation to the group still seated around the table for what had happened. The tension hung in the air. Every person in the room knew, it seemed, instinctively that a bomb had just gone off.And the consequences will cause serious damage. Mark sat at the head of the table. His fingers tapped the polished wood nervously. His usual confident demeanor was gone. It was replaced by a feeling of discomfort radiating from him. Justin could see it in the way his eyes avoided his gaze. But there had been more-something darker, something deeper. Silently, Justin walked toward the tabletop; his footsteps rang harsh in the otherwise silent room. Mark's eyes flicked up, catching everything else for the briefest instant before quickly looking down.“Everyone out,” Justin said, his voice harsh, commanding. There was no space for dissent.The team, sensing the heaviness of the moment,

Chapter: Chapter 555: The Enemy WithinJustin sat in his office, staring at the files Mark had delivered earlier. The quiet hum of the city outside his window was a stark contrast to the storm raging inside him. A leak found in his own company—what he thought was kept safe—had just turned into a full-blown leak. People close to him are betraying him. And he didn't know who it was.In his head, Mark's words played on repeat, but it was the stabbing betrayal that hurt the most. He had single-handedly built this company as anything by steel-back-end deals, through a relentless strategy, and with the will to establish iron-clad grounds for its existence. And now, someone within his entire circle began tearing it all apart and selling to the highest bidder. A slap against the face, and Justin wasn't certain how to take it. He instantly picked the phone, dialing Mark's number. It rang once and twice, and right then came Mark's voice.“Justin?”“Where are we with the leak?” Justin’s voice was clipped, every word laced with an

Chapter: Chapter 554: The Forgotten FoeUpon waking, Justin felt gnawing uneasiness. He had won relatively hard and long, but as he walked in the office that morning, something was not right; the air felt heavy, the tension intense and indiscernible. Somehow, Justin couldn't seem to shake an inner feeling that someone was still perhaps watching, waiting for just the right moment to make his move.“Good morning, Mr. Drogonuv,” Mark’s voice broke through the silence as Justin walked into his office. The assistant’s usual upbeat tone was tinged with something more serious. “We need to talk.”Justin raised his eyebrows but waved his hand for Mark to continue. "what happened?" Mark's expression was tense, and Justin immediately felt a sense of urgency in the room.“It’s about the company’s recent movements. "I notice a few discrepancies in our financial reports. At first, I thought it was simply an oversight, but I now doubt it," Justin's heartbeat sped up. “What kind of irregularities?”“A few transactions that don’t add up.

As the remnants of Ethan's empire collapsed, Justin is forced to face the reality that his tireless victories have come at a terrible cost.The meeting room is quiet. It was the silence that came only after a fight. Board members who were once concerned about Justin's methods, Now they looked at him with a different respect. They understood the stakes, the price paid for survival in this ruthless world.But for Justin, respect is not as important as the weight of his decision. He sat at the head of the table, looking around at the face he was leaning on. Mark stood on the side. His normally confident demeanor was now marked with a delicate caution. Ava sat across from him. Her eyes narrowed as she examined the information in front of her. “Ethan's downfall has left a void in the market,” Justin said in a low but firm tone,

Chapter: Chapter 552: The Final BlowThe days that followed the media explosion were chaotic. Ethan’s empire, once a towering structure of influence and wealth, was now a crumbling shell. He had endured the tumult of the tragedy caused by the scandal of Samuel Dayton, more than anything that Justin had ever expected. It had spread so far and caused investors to back out. But Justin was well aware that it was not yet over. He was indeed cornered, but that did not mean he was out of the game.One evening, Justin sat in his office, the dim light from his desk lamp lighting up long shadows on the wall. His thoughts are sharp and organized. With no room for complacency at this moment. It is time to end it all. Ethan has been a thorn in his flesh for far too long. And Justin knows the only way to truly destroy him is to take away everything that matters to him.As he searched through the documents on the table Mark walked in with a solemn expression. “we have a situation. Ethan is trying to play his last card. Word is that
