Edward’s gaze turned dark, “You lie, loser. I just signed a new deal with Mr. Enzo Mancini. And my company’s market value has increased. Whoever told you I sold my company is a liar and a loser.”

Emily, unsure of what to do next, nodded in agreement.

“I can see you are Jealous, she left me for you. Let’s be honest, what can you offer? Can you get her an invitation to an exclusive event?”

“I can get her as many invitations as she wants, just name it.”

“Stop bluffing, Asher,” Emily muttered.

Edward paused and sneered. “Let’s make a bet then since you claimed you can.”

“Since you called me a loser, you shouldn’t be afraid of me.”

To Edward, it was impossible for Asher to get an invite from the top prominent families in the city. “Sure, I am not scared. You have nothing, my family are among the prominent families in town.” He bawled. “There is an exhibition coming up soon in the south city, it’s being held by the Simpson’s. If you get yourself an Invite, I will make sure I give you

He could tell they were waiting to know the outcome.The man felt his body wobbling; if his boss found out about his mistake, he would be sacked.

He inhaled and exhaled softly and adjusted the mic properly. “Ladies and gentlemen, we are really sorry for the unexpected incident.” He said calmly. “We all are here for a reason, and we are willing to do our best to make sure you all get whatever you paid for in good shape and quality.

    Asher’s expression was neutral, “There are no rule that stated who should be here and who shouldn’t.

I don’t care how much you think you have or how much you have paid. You are no match for me, I am Pablo Zuko. You don’t know anything about handling land like that.” He spat, his words laced with arrogance.“If I don’t know anything about handling a plot, I know better than to be desperate to secure one,” Asher replied, as his cold gaze met with Pablo’s stern expression.A smug smile crept onto Pablo’s face, “I will make it easy for you. Write me a number, any number, and I will make sure you are taken care of.” He offered Asher a blank cheque.The organizers exchanged glances and shifted their gaze towards the scene before them.“I am not interested, what you are offering

    “I warned you but you refused to listen,” Asher replied.The organizers gaped in shock; they could tell from Pablo’s expression that things were not going well.

Lionel’s voice echoed in his mind, cold and menacing. Each word was laced with a venom that sent shivers down his spine. “You have got two days to pay off what you owe, or I will make sure you regret it.” That voice kept ringing in his head. He had heard how Lionel treated people who owed him money, either cutting off their hands or taking something valuable from them. His debts have been stacking up for months, even after the Partnership. He had been unable to recover some money to clear up his debts. Edward’s mind raced, trying to think of something, anything.

    Asher was mute; he knew they wouldn’t believe him if he said it out, “How I saw it shouldn’t be the issue here; what matters most is helping you.” Mr. March leaned closer, he thought about spilling it out. There is no need to hide it if he had seen it. His voice was low and trembling. “Six months ago, I started having this strange symptom after returning from the antique street. Pain in my joints, hallucinations, nightmares that felt real. Doctors couldn’t find anything, my wife was worried, and she came back home with someone, an old man who called himself the Grandfather Harold.”“Grandmaster Harold, that name sounds familiar,” Olivia said.Mr. March nodded, as he continued. “I was told it’s an evil spirit. That I came in contact with something I wasn’t to. He claimed it was feeding on me, using me to sustain itself and that something needed to be done. He offered me the treatment and told me that the main treatment would cost me a lot; it might include everything I have.”His e

I know it’s a top secret.” She paused, “I invested in your company through Edward George; we got informed that you are planning on bringing gold from Africa, and we are going to make a huge profit from it.”Mr. March furrowed his brow in confusion. He couldn’t remember making such statements. Neither does he remember having any meeting with any Edward George.The murmurs erupted from the crowd.“Mom, you should never have said this here. Edward will get angry, this might affect the deal between Edward and Mr. March.” Jackson whispered.“It will not,” she muttered.Asher shook his head, as he stared at both mother and son.

Asher’s jaw tightened, “Take your mom away; she has no business with anything that concerns me.” Jackson frowned, “What will you do if I don’t? I can see you are trying to reap the young lady of her hard-earned money.” “Don’t mind him; that’s how he goes about tricking young ladies of their money,” Mrs Deborah said disdainfully. Olivia’s anger grew deep; she couldn’t help but wonder why Asher always gets taunted by people whenever they see him. Despite everything they were saying, she still couldn’t shake the love she felt for him. “Do you know them?” Olivia asked. Asher was about to utter a word, but Jackson uttered a word. “Yes, don’t try to deny.” He threatened. “We know him; he was married to my sister and was a live-in son-in-law not until he got divorced and was kicked out of our house. I probably know he is living in a gutter.” “Mind the way you talk to me or else?” Ashe

    Edward was caught off guard by her question, he never anticipated it. “This is confidential, have you not been following our conversations,” Jackson said.“Yes, Mr. March wants this to be a top secret. I would have called him, but he might be busy, and not like that, I shared it with someone. I wouldn’t trick your family, believe me.” Emily thought about her engagement with Edward, and she trusted him; there was no way he would want to hurt her family. Besides, such opportunities are rare.

I know your family is among the leading powers in Kingwood, it will be easy for you to bounce back.” He nodded, even though he knew his family was inclining recently. He wouldn’t want to let his guard down not before this family who worship him like a mini God.Emily kept mute, unsure of what to say. She couldn’t shake the uneasy feeling that was weighing on her. Edward cleared his throat, as he leaned forward. “There is something I’d like to discuss with you all?” Mrs. Deborah straightened and smiled. Emily raised her brow in curiosity. She was wondering what he had to tell her family.“Is it about the marriage? When is it?” Mrs. Deborah intoned.Edward fe

Their hearts beat in fear, the new underground boss wasn’t someone they would want to piss off. “Vandy, Do you know the lady?” Jake asked with a low and shaky voice.Vandy let out a mischievous smirk, “Must I know her before I help her. She is related to Mr. Mancini and whoever is related to Mr. Mancini is also my relative.” Asher raised his brow, as he smiled at Vandy’s words. That was an interesting line.Jake’s body trembled in fear; he knew he had gotten himself into something serious. He couldn’t believe Angela had someone like Asher to defend her.

Apologize to her this instant, and I will make sure I forget about everything that happened here today.”The men exchanged glances as their expressions turned dark.
