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 599 Wenlock went quiet after this. He had been so eager to vent his anger by killing Billy that he didn't even consider whether it was safe for him to do such a thing.Edward sneered at the creature pretending to be human and violently kicked the backseat. “Are all dark entities like you such fucking dummies! What a piece of shit!”Wenlock could only bow his head. “Apologies for my stupidity, Boss.” Billy had to take Stacy straight to the hospital. As soon as he got back in the car, he spoke to the AI assistant in the car.“Hey, Kuru, is there a function in this car that allows you to run a thorough body scan? I need to know if my girlfriend is truly okay.”A masculine mechanical voice replied. “Yes, Sir Billy. I do have the available program to run a quick scan over a human body. I can detect a range of medical issues as fast as within a minute.”Billy was stunned. He truly wasn't expecting much when he had asked that question. He was desperate to verify if nothing weird had happened t

Chapter: Chapter 598 Billy didn't bring any weapon with her, not tonight. That's because he didn't think anything would happen with his girlfriend, especially since she was going out with her biological brother. Even if Edward is as he had suspected him to be - an asshole pretending to be something that he's not, in order to be socially accepted and celebrated - then it's all the more reason for Edward to do anything to Stacy. After all, he still has many eyes on him, both publicly by the world, and privately by law enforcement.Billy was certain that Edward would be very careful with committing any crime that could bring him serious trouble, especially in his own family.Despite the self-reassurance, though, Billy still couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong. He approached the car he had blocked, stopping a foot away from the rear door, and yet, no one turned the windshield down or opened the door.Billy did not like this feeling he was getting. Before leaving his car, he had turned hi

Chapter: Chapter 597 Stacy had no idea what had happened. One minute, she was inside the unsuspecting SUV driven by her eldest brother's personal assistant, occupying the rear seats together. The next minute, she had lost consciousness without a second notice that anything bad was going on.Unknown to Stacy, she had fallen into her brother's well-laid trap. The second age got into the SUV, there was soft music playing, and Stacy couldn't tell if there was anything wrong with it. It was a somewhat distorted version of classical music that she assumed her eldest brother must have developed a liking for. She didn't know Edward for that long after all, but she didn't bother asking.What Stacy didn't know was that this wasn't a normal distorted version of a classical music, but it was audibly laced with a mind calmer that entrances the mind, lulling the body into a sleep.And that was exactly what happened. Stacy hadn't shown up at the place with her car. Otherwise, she wouldn't be waiting for her boyfriend

Chapter: Chapter 596 Meredith ignored the Boeing employees as she walked straight into the mansion. As the granddaughter of the patriarch, she grew up being served diligently, and thus, has always taken these people's show of respect for granted.She ignored the decorations made meticulously to welcome her, and walked straight up the stairs, arriving at the master bedroom where she was sure would be where she would be sleeping during her stay here.She sat by the couch, crossing one leg over the other as she snapped her fingers at the soldier standing to her side. “General Naomi, I asked you a question. Why wasn't my stay at Clayton Skyline Hotel approved?”General Naomi Cho, a general at the six-mega-star level of evolution, bowed slightly before the young woman. “Young Madam Mer, the reply we got was that the penthouse was already occupied by another Ashford blood-born member.”Meredith was irritated when she heard that. “What the actual fuck?! I thought the excuse would be that the penthouse was under

Chapter: Chapter 595 Tom tapped a finger on the table. “The secret society that has managed to remain hidden sows seeds of trouble for the organization, huh? That makes sense. The AS99 Organization would be glad to get any new data on them.”General Stella sneered, glaring off into the space of nothingness. “Too bad we can't just burst into Crook Studio and search them without due procedure. I would love to have a proper showdown with that Higher Sacral Succubus now.”Jamie took a deep breath before giving his assistant a firm thumbs up. “Well done, Tom. You really came through for me this time.”Meanwhile, in a gorgeous estate within LA, the maids and housekeepers rush around the entire place in panic, making sure everything is in perfect shape for the guests they were expecting.The butler was yelling at the employees. “I want everywhere to be as I have commanded! If anything is found to be out of order, your bonus will be docked! If your inefficiency causes a complaint from the esteemed guest, you wil

Chapter: Chapter 594 Jamie immediately recalled the history that his grandfather, Great Master Raymond Ashford, narrated to him about his parents. Jamie's father, Michael Ashford, had met Jamie's mother, Elizabeth Oman, in a war-riddled zone where too many dark entities were popping up mysteriously. Elizabeth had been a member of that small community.They must have been the descendants of the ancestors who experienced the advantages of consuming the holy lake water on a much larger scale.Jamie removed the necklace to take a good look at it. “So you're saying the pattern belongs to that tribe my mother came from? The tribe from the war-riddled zone, huh?”Tom nodded his head. “That's what I found. Some crucial details in the records are lost, but from what I gathered, the ancestors of those people possessed a particularly scary kind of power. The mysterious power of black energy and matter.”Jamie sat up straight in his seat. “Tom, I'll need you to retrieve everything you can find on my mother's backgr

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
