The boss frowned, letting out a bitter laugh. “Asher Mancini, I can see you aren’t afraid of death. You walked into my territory with one of my men and killed another one.” He sneered, taking a step forward.

He continued, “Since you want to know why, I will tell you.” He said, starting by introducing himself. “I am Roberto Zuko, the senior brother to Pablo Zuko. I guess that name sounds familiar to you.”

Asher furrowed his brow, trying to recall where he had heard the name. It then popped into his head, and he remembered Pablo Zuko, the man from the auction house.

He gritted his teeth, as he glared at Roberto.

“I can see you have recall,” he nodded, taking a pistol from one of his guards, aiming at Asher. “You ruined my brother’s plans, you ruined everything.”

“I didn’t do anything, I only won against your brother. You know the rules of the game, whoever has the highest bid takes home the prize.” Asher countered.

“That’s true, but most times we don’t play according to the rules, we

Ruining all his plans, and now turning him into a fugitive.Meanwhile, while he was thinking as he swirled the drink in his hand, the door creaked open as an elderly man with grey hair walked forward. The man who walked inside was none other than Vincent Simpsons, Mr. Owen Simpson’s cousin.

Asher came from behind and drew him out.“If you kill her, you will be charged with murder. You should call the police to do their job.” Asher informed.Claudia coughed uncontrollably, her body trembling in shame and regret.How could she do all of this and still leave with them without an atom of regret and shame inside her?Love couldn’t hold herself anymore as tears streamed down her cheeks. “Claudia, you did all of this.

  • Chapter 169 - Struck Her Central Shoulder Point

    A few hours later, when Asher was through, he took out the needle carefully, applying the herbs to the spot. Gasps left James and the maids’ mouths when they saw colour returning to her face. They witnessed a miraculous revival of a woman they thought wouldn’t survive.That moment, she sneezed, her eyes fluttering open.“What happened to me?” She muttered.James stood frozen, feeling excited and stunned, seeing his mother awake. Veronica and Claudia stood with their mouths ajar in shock and disbelief.“Nothing much, Mrs. Douglas, it seemed someone you trusted had an extra motive against you.”She looked at him confused, as she struggled to comprehend what he was saying.James walked forward, “Mom, you are awake. Mr. Mancini said you were poisoned, he saved you, mother.” He said with excitement.But Mrs. Loveth stared coldly at the maid, ‘Who among you did this to me?”The maid shook their head in disagreement.

  • Chapter 168 - Honeysuckle, And Dandelion Root,

    “I quit, I was tired of working under someone, after thinking about it, I thought about starting a business or going to law school.”Asher chuckled, and asked, “How do you plan on doing that?” “I have my plans, just keep your eyes on the road.” She replied.Asher shook his head, still keeping a smiling face. He wasn’t surprised that she quit, he always knew Mia wouldn’t work for Olivia for long.Just as they arrived, James stood outside waiting patiently for them. Asher and Mia alighted from the car. At the sight of Mia, James had mixed feelings inside him, but then he kept himself composed.“This way, Mr. Mancini, I have gotten everything you requested. Come in!” James said with his voice barely above a whisper.Upon seeing her, Loveth, James’s mother, Asher could tell it was serious just like he had anticipated. She lay weak on the bed, her breathing heavy, and her face pale and drained of blood.Mia felt a surge of emotion, it reminded her of her mother’s condition, but seeing A

  • Chapter 167 - Head Or Tail

    “Head or tail?” Asher asked.“I go with the tail, Mr. Mancini.” Asher shrugged, handed the coin to Chris, “You flip the coin, whoever gets the same side twice becomes the winner.”Chris was left in shock, never expecting to be part of it. But then it fell on him.“Flip it,” James said confidently.“Alright,”Just as they had said, Chris took a deep breath. He took the coin, he flicked it with his thumb and the coin spun several times in the air before it landed on his palm, and he quickly covered it with his other palm, while staring at Asher and James.James’ heart pounded with possibilities, his body trembling slightly, while Asher was calm. Seeing the tension, Chris slowly opened his hand, revealing the head of the coin.Asher smiled.James’ face turned pale, and he nodded slowly, knowing he had one chance left. Chris flicked the coin again, and this time, James adjuste

  • Chapter 166 - A Game Of Luck

    Chris was surprised by Asher’s reply. At first, he thought he would decline, but he just wanted something different. He raised his head and stared at James, “You should wait, he is on his way, let me remind you, if you are planning any evil against him you had better leave now, if anything should happen to Mr. Mancini when he comes here, I will make sure I kill you and your mother.”James shook his head. He couldn’t help but wonder what the healer had done for Chris and his family that would make Chris speak like that, and again, Chris was able to call the healer without stress. The healer agreed to come over.When Asher arrived, James was waiting inside, his face was full of worry and anxiety.He panicked and felt uneasy when he saw Asher, and how Chris tilted his head. At first, he was expecting an elderly man but Asher happened to be a young man. James hurriedly stood up, “Sir..Mr. Mancini.” He stammered.Asher stared at him, then at Mia whose face was gloomy. She stood behind th
