Gino was frozen as he heard Asher’s words, was he out of his mind? How could he say that to the manager, is he trying to get the sack?Olson was angry enough that he clenched his fist, “What did you just say to me?”“You heard me,” “You little shit! I am going to make sure you are fired, you won’t be able to get a job anywhere else. It’s a promise.” Olson threatened.“Do you think you can do that?” “I am sorry, Mr Olson, I will talk to him. Don’t take things to heart “Gino’s jaw dropped in shock, they had come to talk to one of their most loyal partners over the years, only for Asher to be making things complicated for them.Does he want to lose his job? Did he make a mistake bringing Asher along with him?“You care more about the money than doing something good for the hotel.” At this moment the door swung open, and a lady with long hair walked into the room. Her face was pale and etched with worry. She was none other than Camilla Vance.She looked at those men and then leaned f

“First, we have to be careful with Llara. We can never tell if she was behind what happened, or if it was the masked figure. We also need to trace her every move to see if we can find Tarot.”“What if she knows we killed Tarot? What are we going to do? She might tell Master Gaius and you know what that means!” Kiki was etched with concern.“That will not be a big deal, we kill her as well. But we just have to keep our eyes on her every move, she might know the masked figure.”At that time, Mick’s phone rang, and he snapped out of his thought and received the call with a frown when he saw the name of the caller.“Where the hell are you? I want you at the office this moment!” Kiki flinched when she heard the caller’s words. It was common for Gaius to yell at them, but not with that kind of fury in his voice.“I am on my way?” He muttered before the call got terminated.Immediately, he drove towards Gaius’ office.When they walked into the office, Gaius had his hand clasp behind his back

However, as soon as they reached the warehouse, Asher suddenly realized something was really wrong.The truck driver who had come along with Gino was nowhere to be found. When they asked the other driver, he said he had gone to the restroom.For a moment, Gino felt a cold shiver run down his spine; he could not stop thinking about what he had heard: fifteen cartons were missing suddenly.What would he tell Helene? How could he have followed Clyde to his office without thinking?Should he put the blame on Asher? Gino had mixed feelings, like Asher, but he kept a neutral expression.When the driver asked what happened, Asher explained every detail to him, the driver’s mouth agape in shock and disbelief.It’s a mistake, maybe they didn’t count properly. Take us to the store.” Gino insisted. “We supervised the loading ourselves, and recorded every carton; there was no way fifteen cartons would just vanish.” “Are you trying to say that someone’s trying to sabotage you?” Clyde asked.“Yes,

Asher paused for a moment, his gaze hardened as he stared at the men. Clyde had taken things too far, and people like him don’t get a chance. He had faced situations like this, so he wasn’t afraid, but why steal from people just to earn a living? Truth be told Asher was furious, and he wouldn’t spare any of them, “Are you sure you want to do this? You can let me have the cartons of wine back, and I will go away, but you keep insisting on not letting us check the warehouse; you will pay heavily for it.”“I have given you enough time, it’s now time I show you a lesson that you will never forget, even in the afterlife.” As soon as Clyde said that, he instructed the men to charge at them. Asher let out a grin, and he cracked his knuckles. The men stormed forward with heavy batons and crowbars. Without hesitation, they lunged at the young man with their weapons.All it took was a few minutes, and every one of them was writhing in pain, as loud thuds, and screams from the men filled the

Asher stood there, a calm smile playing on his lips as he motioned for Gino to roll down the window.Gino hesitated, then slowly lowered the glass. “What do you think you’re doing?” he asked, his tone defensive and uneasy.Asher’s smile widened slightly. “I should be the one asking you that. Why were you following me? You do realise I could have you arrested for stalking, right?”Gino scoffed, forcing a laugh. “Following you? Don’t be ridiculous. I was just going somewhere.”Asher tilted his head, studying him. “Really? Because this isn’t the route to your house, Gino. So, try again.”Gino’s face hardened. “What truth are you talking about? Stay away from me, boy. I said I’m going somewhere.”But Asher didn’t flinch. He simply kept his gaze steady on Gino. Without being told, he knew the man was lying, but whatever he was looking for, he would one day find out.At that moment, Gino revved his car engine and drove away, leaving Asher watching him.Asher was about to take a step when he
