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!

Chapter: Chapter 648 Naomi tightened his fist. “But Young Madam, the monster and his allies are getting away.”Meredith scoffed. “You've heard of the Strigoi. You've read the many files. Even if we kill that reincarnation, it would just find another vessel. Plus, the situation is much worse.”“Those four…I don't think they realize what it really means to be an S-Rank incarnation. If we kill Wally, he can easily activate the soul seeds implanted in all three. Even you won't be able to kill them at once.”Naomi sighed. “You're right.”Meredith gazed at the hospital building. “Have you heard of this hospital? St. Mary's General Hospital. It used to be public, but then it was owned by a mysterious person. Still, that person kept it open to the public, just better.”“There are hundreds of patients in this building. There are thousands of visitors and staff there as well. We need to make sure they are safe. Call for backup. I want the lieutenants and soldiers here.”Naomi nodded her head and got to work. Mere

Chapter: Chapter 647 Jamie watched the scene unfold. The mixed aura from General Naomi Cho and Wally the Strigoy was intense. Even Meredith had to put a layer of energy on her nanotech suit.Wally was severely weakened at this point. Naomi Cho is at the six-mega-star level of evolution. Her ice sword manifestation isn't something to be messed with either. There's also the added fact that Wally had been weakened during his fight against Jamie. Hence, the Ice Sword General got the upper hand. Wally was slashed in the abdomen. Blood poured out of him as he quickly retreated.He looked down at his body with a long sigh. “Fuck. This is why I hate using ordinary humans as my vessels. I bend blood and its essence, and yet, a human vessel cannot function without blood. Fucking hell! Looks like this fight has to come to an end.”Naomi wasn't backing down. “As if I'd just let you escape!” She dashed straight at the incarnation, her surroundings turned frosty as five large swords formed around her. She looked lik

Chapter: Chapter 646 Meghan Sharp shrugged her shoulders. “Whether the power is from a demon or a god, we don't even give a shit at this point.”Olivia Feng giggled with a head nod. “That's right. As long as we get the power to support ourselves, without needing permission from the AS99 Organization, we will gladly take it. Trust us, there are millions of humans across the world who share that sentiment with us “Danny Saxon sneered with a gold gaze. “You all make us sick. You pretend like you're the epitome of morality police, condemning people for finding alternatives to a power source you refuse to share with us. That makes you guys even worse than the dark entities.”“Exactly!” Seth raised a fist. “At least, the dark entities make themselves known to be evil! What about you guys?! You pretend to protect the world. But in truth, you only seek to control it. You know, that begs the question. Does the AS99 Organization even want the dark entities gone for good?”This question genuinely left Meredith and

Chapter: Chapter 645 General Naomi Cho chuckled with a mocking tone. “What's the matter, Wally? Cat’s got your tongue all of a sudden? I was radioed in on your location before I even arrived here. You wouldn't stop before. So why aren't you ruining your mouth now?”Wally gritted his teeth as he pumped out the last bit of bloody plasma at his disposal. He lunged at General Naomi, blending short- and long-range attacks into his techniques. If General Naomi wasn't a top melee fighter - something that all AS99 soldiers have to learn to a great degree.In the end, Wally was defeated. His incarnation was heavily wounded, and General Naomi Cho was ready to kill him off.But then a group of masked people showed up to interfere in the fight. While Naomi and Meredith were confused about who these people could possibly be, Jamie recognized their aura.He muttered to himself. “What the fuck are those dumbasses doing here? How the hell did they get to know Wally?” It was the group of four friends who used to be clos

Chapter: Chapter 644 Before Wally could further injure Jamie, the air around him got cold in seconds. The change in trajectory was completely instinctual. Wally could hear the cracking sound of ice cutting through the air. He switched the flying direction of the bloody dragon he had created. It escaped the giant ice sword that came slicing downward, but not without company Wally had changed the direction of the bloody dragon, avoiding the ice sword from smashing the dragon's neck. But that sudden turn had exposed one of its wings. The ice sword didn't totally miss the target. It cleaved the large bloody dragon’s left wing right off. This sent the creature crashing through the ground.Jamie was about to pass out when he felt a familiar presence near him. “I…It's you.” His voice was low.Meredith chuckled. “Well, well, looks like my hunch was right. It really is you. You depleted your energy reserves yesterday. You shouldn't be fully healed by now, right? Now, you're facing the incarnation of an S-Rank d

Chapter: Chapter 643 Jamie had treated the bottle against Wally the Strigoi like he was a demolition expert. Holy light crystals are known to contain one of the purest forms of light. When used against dark entities, there's no way those creatures can survive.Even the god-like S-Rank entities are not immune to the death that holy light crystals cause them. That was literally how Tom Yates had killed Wally the Strigoi the last time they met. He had rushed a very powerful holy light crystal to burn the creature's fractional soul, causing the actual oversoul a great deal of loss.This time, Jamie had strategically kept the shards of holy light crystals he had on him. Wrapping them in a very thin layer of nanotechnology, he knew that the dark entity would not sense the burning sensation until the nanotech cover was gone.Hence, with every small hole made in the monster’s gigantic bloody armor, Jamie plugged the holes with nanotech-covered holy light crystals. It wasn’t until he was totally certain that ther

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.

Chapter: Chapter 553: A New HorizonThe dust has settled. But the war was not truly over. Ethan's fall from grace was swift and unyielding. But Justin knows the road ahead isn't without challenges. 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
