DOMINATING HIS FOES Chapter 47 - Final decision
The situation was frustrating to Daniel March. His icy stare pierced through Asher, and a wave of sadness and rage overwhelmed his heart. “Let’s make a deal of 25 million dollars,” Daniel said.Asher shook his head, “Are you that desperate for money? How do you expect us to give you a whopping sum of 25 million dollars? Is that how much your entire family is worth?” Daniel bit the side of his lips; he was only controlling his anger because of the lady; if it was just Asher, he would have walked away earlier.“What the hell are you talking about? Do you think my family is worth that cheap? Talking about being cheap, you look pathetic and worthless. I wonder what she saw in you that made you bring you to such a business deal.”He added, “People like you aren’t supposed to be around the rich, but let to work their ass off. How much will you invest? I guess nothing because you don’t even have a penny to your name.”Asher let out a short laugh that left Daniel in deep anger. “Wow, you
DOMINATING HIS FOES Chapter 1- The Divorce
Asher walked up the apartment stairs, with his heart heavy with rejections and his mind racing with several thoughts. His shoulders sagged under the weight of another failed interview, making it the tenth time in a row. “You’re a great candidate but I am sorry, we have decided to move forward with someone else.” The words of the manager still playing freely in his head. He clenched his fist, with his face burning with anger. The moment he got to the entrance, Asher drew a deep breath as he reached the door of his in-laws’ apartment, where he had lived for three years. He stepped inside and was welcomed with laughter that echoed through the room. The sound hit him like a slap; he paused, staring at his wife, Emily, and his stomach twisted as he stepped into the living room. Emily was seated on the couch with a bottle of champagne in one hand, her mother, Mrs. Deborah, seated beside her, sipping from the glass. Both smiling and chatting as if they had won a lottery. Their faces
DOMINATING HIS FOES Chapter 2 - The return
A man stood In front of Asher, smirking, tall, broad-shouldered, and wearing an expensive suit; in his hand was a bouquet of fresh red roses. Asher knew him to be Emily’s boss and one of her admirers, Edward George. The man she had replaced him with. The sight of Edward made Asher’s blood simmer. His expression turned cold, while Edward’s grin widened. “I didn’t think I had run into you so soon, pauper.” Asher gritted his teeth. And his jaw clenched. His knuckles turned ghostly white. And he could feel the heat of his rage through his skin. “You should learn to mind your business.” Edward chuckled, walking forward. “I heard the news about how you got dumped by your wife, or should I say, ex-wife. Guess she finally realized she was wasting her time with a loser like you.” Asher exhaled slowly, suppressing his anger. He had no time for this, so he turned to walk away. Edward blocked his path, “what’s with the rush?” he uttered. “I can see you can’t stand seeing someone better t
DOMINATING HIS FOES Chapter 3 - Return the necklace
"You bastard,” Emily yelled with a sharp voice laced with fury.Asher frowned furiously, with his fist clenched and his jaw tightened. “Who the hell is she to yell at him? Even after the divorce, she still wants to taunt him.What do you want?” he retorted.Emily paused throughout their three years of marriage; Asher had never been this rude to her; she hissed a sigh of frustration, “You know exactly why I am calling. I want the necklace you took, Asher.”Asher raised a brow, ”I don’t know what you are talking about? What necklace?”Emily scoffed, “Don’t play games with me, Asher. Edward saw it, There was no way you could afford something as expensive as that. You stole it.”What does she take him for?Asher let out a soft laugh, pouring himself a glass and taking a gulp. “Emily, even now, you still underestimate me.”There was a moment of silence on the other end.Emily hesitated for a moment before she recovered, “I am warning you, Asher. You have less than 12 hours to return it or
DOMINATING HIS FOES Chapter 4 - Restaurant encounter
Asher stepped out of his mansion and decided to take a ride to one of his favourite restaurants. The soft chimes of the restaurant doorbell rang as Asher stepped in. It’s been a while. The moment he entered, he was greeted by the gatekeeper with a smile. Asher remembered that most of the staff members got fired after the business suffered a huge loss four years ago. He spotted his usual table; he was about to go forward when he heard an arrogant voice cut through the air. “Asher, the famous boy toy, or should I say the live-in son-in-law.” Asher’s brow arched; he recognised the voice. He turned and met the mocking gaze of Fred, his old coursemate. The same Fred who had been nothing but an arrogant show-off since their university days in America. Asher’s jaw tightened, and his expression was mixed. Seated beside Fred was a blonde woman; a few others sat at various tables around the restaurant. “I never thought I’d see you here, Asher still got those cheap tastes, huh?”
DOMINATING HIS FOES Chapter 5 - downfall
Fred’s hands trembled as he read the message twice. Praying it was a mistake. His breaths hitched as hot sweat drenched his forehead.His expression could tell a story that things aren’t going properly for him. He raised his brow, staring around the restaurant and at Asher, whose lips curled into a smile. “Cat got your tongue.” He taunted. “Looks like you have been promoted to the head janitor.”The manager smiled, hearing Asher’s words. Fred’s face drained of colour, and sweat dripped down his forehead. He swallowed hard. His throat suddenly dried, and the realization hit him.“How did this happen?” Fred was left in confusion.“You didn’t know, I own Venlo Winery,” Asher spoke confidently.Silent murmurings could be heard from the crowd.Fred narrowed his eyes at the manager, who nodded in agreement. “Mr. Mancini was the one who saved the business when we went bankrupt.” Everyone gasped in shock, murmuring erupted through the corners of the restaurant. They all stared in disbelief
DOMINATING HIS FOES Chapter 6 - Survival
“Darling, what’s happening?” Emily asked. As she walked into the office. “Now isn’t the time, Emily. The business is bleeding,” he replied with his eyes blazing in fury.“It’s all over the news, people are beginning to talk. You should do something about it, Fred. We can’t let this happen to us. You promised me we will always be at the top.” Emily said with a shaky tone.Edward exhaled heavily, “I don’t need you to tell me what I already know.” Emily knew that if the business should collapse. She will lose everything. She doesn’t want to go back to her old life. She wouldn’t want to be laughed at by her friends.Edward raged boiled over, when he kept seeing numerous calls. He grabbed the document from the desk and hurled it across the room. The papers scattered around the office.Emily flinched in fear when she saw the horrible expression in his gaze. Just when she thought she would experience a good life after her divorce with Asher things began to go south. “You can go back to yo
DOMINATING HIS FOES Chapter 7 - Find them
Asher was shocked and confused. He was finding it difficult to believe it was her. “Isabella.” The name escaped his lips.The woman froze, her eyes widening in shock as she stared at the figure who had just called her name. Her eyes flickered between the man and her son.A few moments later, they both were seated across from each other. With a defining silence that had engulfed them.“I demand an explanation? What are you doing here, and where have you been?” Asher asked, his voiced was brimming in anger.Isabella clutched her son closer. She swallowed the lump in her throat as she struggled with her words. She had never imagined she would ever come in contact with Asher.Asher’s gaze was serious and dangerous. “I am talking to you, and don’t keep quiet like you didn’t hear my question, Isabella.” “Mom, do you know him?” The little boy asked.Isabella broke into tears, Asher kept a mild demeanor, and all he demanded was an explanation from her.“I am sorry, Asher. It’s not what you

Chapter 46 - Disagreement
Mr. March brought out a folder which he showed to Olivia. Olivia winked at Asher to join her. While they were going through it, Mr. March couldn’t shake the frustration that was boiling inside him. His anger shimmered inwardly.“Ms, Olivia, I would suggest the young man should give us some privacy.”Asher chuckled dryly, he blamed himself for trying to help the man. It seems Mr. March is taking things too far. “Mr. March, Asher and I came here for this and there is no way I will tell him to leave except you want us to call off the deal.” She said, “Besides from what I am seeing here, you are neck deep in debt; there is no way I would want to invest in a company that many investors are pulling out. And now your health.” Mr. March felt irritated, “You are both against me?” He asked.“No one is against you, we are only trying to help you.”He barked, “Help me, how? By telling me to quit something I have been taking for so many weeks. That can never be possible.” “If you want to help
Chapter 45 - Your Sickness Is Supernatural.
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

Olivia shook her head, “No, I don’t know them.” Asher smiled, as he chimed in. “They look like attention seekers.”Mrs. Deborah glared at Asher coldly, she was beginning to feel embarrassed. But wasn’t going to back down. “Mr. March, I am sorry for saying it out. 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. They had no idea where they had invested their money.Olivia looked around, she noticed how eyes were st
Chapter 43 - Not Aware Of The Program
Olivia’s face turned red, as a hint of irritation flashed before her eyes. She looked at Asher. 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
Chapter 42 - Outing With Olivia
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. She also knew Mr. March; he had made a lot of money from the importation and exportation of goods and services.“I will invest 1 million dollars,” she saidEdward smiled, he had just made almost 2 million dollars from his fake business scheme. “That’s good, I will be coming over first thing tomorrow morning to get the money.” The entire Douglas family were filled with excitement. They would be making a lot of money.******Another evening, Asher was just feeling bored at home, thinking of what t

Edward knew he was leaving, He came up with a plan. Something that would benefit him.When he arrived At Emily’s apartment, her entire family were all sitting in the large living room. He was offered a seat beside Emily.Edward kept a mild expression as he tried to mask the shame he was feeling.“Edward, How is everything going! 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

“I want them to give me more time to gather their money,” she replied. Asher shook his head, this wasn’t the kind of reply he had anticipated. He wanted something brutal, something that would make the men beg for their lives.He saw the woman as someone who was scared and peaceful, but to Asher, there was no peace for the wicked.Jake and his men were wondering how Asher got to know Vandy. 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. If he had known, he wouldn’t have treated h
Chapter 39 - Jake's pain
Jake gripped Angela’s hair, she wince in pain. “Where do you think you are going without paying off your debts.”Asher’s movement was fast, he kicked Jake’s hand. With just a kick?, Jake’s hand broke, and he groaned bitterly.His men gaped in shock, as they witnessed the incident. Their heart boiled in hatred for Asher. “How dare you? I can see you are here to challenge!” One of the men said as his face reddened.Asher was annoyed, “You should all leave now, and never return.”“Who are you to tell us what to do.” Another man shouted. “You have three seconds to go on your knees and apologize to my boss before we cripple you.” Asher frowned, “Don’t piss me off today! 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. They couldn’t understand why a young man like Asher would want to sign his death with his hand. “You should never have come here. This was none of your busine
