Asher shook his head and let out a small smile. It was obvious that everyone was thinking the same way about him. Meanwhile, murmurs erupted from the crowd, “This guy seems to not know who he is dealing with. He think Gabriel is some random dude he could disrespect, he must be skin in his brain.”“Even I will not dare mess with Gabriel Simon, yet this guy is trying to step on a stone bigger than him. He will be crushed to nothing by the Simon’s.” The crowd muttered seeing how Asher wasn’t scared of Gabriel Simon. They wanted Asher to be dealt with so they could taunt him.Asher sighed, “Look, I don’t care what you feel or who you are. I am heading somewhere important, I would advise you to stay away from me.”Gabriel gritted his teeth, “You don’t care?” He scoffed, “How dare you talk to me that way? Take a good look at yourself, you are worthless. You think owning a car like a Honda hybrid will make you look big. You must be dumb, look over there.” He said, pointing at his Range Ro

She picked up the call and said softly. “What’s up, Mia.”Mia on the other end of the line, replied with a saddened tone. “Olivia, I heard you rejected Gabriel’s proposal to help you out, is it true?”Olivia furrowed her brow in surprise, she wondered how she knew about it. “How did you know about this so fast.”Mia let out a light cough, “Forget about how I knew, but was it true. Why did you reject a proposal from Gabriel? I know it’s because of Asher, but you should have given him a chance to clear the air for the moment.”“Really?” She said, “Mia, are you also taking Gabriel’s side? Don’t make me believe you are part of this.”“No, never.” She hurriedly replied. “I am more concerned about you; things like this are not what you need at the moment; it might affect our sales and your family’s reputation. Think about it?”“You need to do something now. It is still fresh; you should have seen the negative comments flooding the internet since the post got dropped.”Olivia exhaled softly,

Aaron and his friends frowned, the old lady was trying to play with them. They knew what they wanted, and they would get it by every possible means, even if it meant going over to her place to get it.Mrs. Deborah knew if they should call the police, there was no way she would escape it, she took money from him. She wished she could change the hands of time. If she was ever told that someone like Edward would betray the trust she had for him, she would never believe it. Aaron swung the pipe; the only thing holding him from taking action was because she was an old woman; even as a gangster, he didn’t forget his morals. But the old lady seems to be getting on his nerves with her reluctant behaviour. “Call your son this moment, we need him to cover over so we can talk about this and know when we will be getting my money.”Mrs. Deborah sighed nervously; she knew calling Jackson would be like setting him up for his death. She knew her son couldn’t stand up against the three hefty men,

Asher stared at her; he couldn’t help but feel excited. He glanced at the scene with a smirk across his lips.Before she could react, Aaron stepped forward and smacked her face, he slapped her twice. Her face snapped sideways, the slap echoing through the street. She stumbled back, barely keeping her balance, her cheeks burning from the humiliation and pain.Aaron was about to raise his hand again when a man with silver hair in an impeccably tailored suit adjusted the cuff of his shirt, unbothered by the tension that was lingering in the air.“What do you think you are doing?” He spat out furiously.Aaron averted his gaze towards the figure, and the tall man ambled forward in annoyance. His expression was cold but calculative.“Why are you hitting a woman that’s old enough to be your mother? Don’t you have respect for the old woman?” He asked.“Who are you? And what’s your business in this?” Aaron asked.The young man gritted his teeth, his face was filled with anger. “I am Henry Mar

The next day, Asher was waiting for a report about SIM Media when he received a call from Sandra Westfall, the vice chairman of Blue Beam Construction.He answered the call, waiting to hear from the lady. A calm but Sharp voice mouthed from the other end. “Good morning, Mr. Mancini. How are you doing?”Asher, who was curious as to why she called, retorted. “I am fine, and you?”“I am doing okay,” she said, “there is something I would like to discuss with you at the office. Are you free?” Asher hesitated before he replied. “For now, I am free.”She sighed softly, “Alright, it’s about the report of the company’s new development, and we need your approval for a big project.”“Send me the time you want me at the office, and I will be there. Remember, I don’t want anyone there aside from you.”“Yes, I understand, Mr. Mancini.”“Okay.”After ending the call Asher left his home and made his way to the office. Upon arriving at the large building, he stood at the entrance and glanced around f
