Asher narrowed his gaze towards Chris; he noticed Chris was trembling in fear; he understood the man wasn’t in his right state of mind. Who wouldn’t be when they had witnessed Francisco shoot Stewart? Asher was unfazed, he kept an indifferent expression. “You shouldn’t fire a gun inside the chamber, you will awaken the spirit of the guardian.”Francisco chuckled, “What guardian? If there was any guardian as you claimed, do you think we would have gotten to this extent and many of my men would have been dead?”What he didn’t understand was that Asher knew the pattern, and he had offered a sign before they embarked on the journey inside the chamber. Francisco never paid attention to what was happening earlier; he was so focused on the diamonds that he couldn’t comprehend what was happening.“Don Francisco, Mr. Asher is right. From my knowledge, the guardian doesn’t want any sign of threat around the chamber; even the smell of blood might awaken it; that’s why anyone with any form of

Isabella’s eyes flutter open, blinking against the low light. Her throat was dry, and her body felt heavy, like sinking in warm sand. She tried to move, but her limbs was slow to respond.“Wh.. where am I?” she asked.“Easy, you are safe,” Asher replied, his voice was calm.She raised her brow, surprised to see Asher. “You, Asher!” Isabella whispered. Asher gave her light nod, “You are safe; the boy is also safe.” Isabella stuttered; she tried to recall everything that had happened previously, and she felt a sharp pain in her head. “How did you find me?” “I didn’t find you, but my men did find you,” he replied.After Asher left the chamber with Chris, he contacted Mark on his location. He was also informed by Vandy that Isabella’s hideout had been discovered and men were moving in to rescue her. Asher felt a sense of relief washing over his face.However, Chris demanded an explanation of how everything happened. How he was brought back to life. Asher knew he couldn’t tell the latte

“Do I look like someone who is bluffing, Mia? I have more than you can imagine.” “Bragging again, I am not Olivia that will believe all your lies. But come to think of it, who is that friend of yours that always gifts you with such expensive wine? He must be wealthy because no one in Kingwood would gift you such without coming from a wealthy family.” She voiced. “Can you link me up with him?”Asher laughed and looked at her again, “YOU are not his type, and I am not sure he wouldn’t even give a look at you.”She frowned, as her face darkened from his words. “Why? Am I not beautiful? I am a goddess of beauty? Anyone who comes across me will definitely want to be around me.” “But I don’t want to be around you, and I don’t see anything beautiful about you.” He smiled.She waved her hand and spoke with gritted teeth. “You are a nobody, my charm only works for people with big pockets. Do you know how much I spend to maintain such beauty?” She sneered. “So tell me where is he from? Where

“Mr. Mancini, I will need to take my leave. I am truly sorry for interrupting your celebration. Please permit me to go.” Asher knew better than to accept; he could tell the latter didn’t want to stay, and he could sense the discomfort in his gaze.He shrugged, “Alright, you can leave.” Asher said with his voice barely above a whisper.Aaron and his men bowed respectfully towards Asher before leaving the hall. Chris’s friends stared at Asher with confusion and admiration; a while ago, they were scared that Aaron would ruin the party, but they were left stunned when they watched him bow before Asher.They couldn’t help but wonder who he was and where he was from. Whisperings and murmurings erupted as many could be seen staring at Asher.Mia’s face flushed in embarrassment, each time her gaze narrowed towards Asher. The same person she thought was not connected or worthless had just made Aaron look like a nobody.She couldn’t stay any more as many eyes were peering at her after the hu

“I am sure, you can’t afford any, not even in your next lifetime,” Leo said. Asher shook his head and smiled. The two were looking down on him. And he is going to make them pay for it. “He can’t; I can even make a bet that he doesn’t have a hundred thousand dollars in his bank account.” She smiled. At the same time, a few others stood around. Those who had witnessed the scene unfold couldn’t help but wonder why someone like Asher would even come to the estate when he couldn’t afford it. They glared at him, some hissed and taunted him. But that didn’t shake Asher. He had not gotten started. “Hey, you should just leave. You can’t afford a house here.” “Do you even think houses at Garden Court Estate are for losers like you!” “He is not only filled with bragging but his pocket is filled with trash.” Leo and Jenifer were enjoying the comments from the others around. Leo muttered, “Each of these properties is available through private appointment only. Buyers are pre-
