2024-05-26 11:09:47Asher enjoyed his life as an heir. Although many eyes disapproved of him replacing Aberon, even one by one, the subsidiaries managed by his uncle rebelled, demanding Aberon to take back full control of the company. The news of Asher terminating the partnership with the Alexander Company spread quickly.
Asher didn't pay much attention to the protests from the Dixon subsidiaries. Like it or not, they had to follow his policies if they still wanted to lead branches of the Dixon company.
After successfully causing significant losses to Darren’s company, Asher reviewed all the partnership documents with other companies.
Who knows, maybe the Halbert company had worked with Dixon. If true, Asher would make that company suffer the same fate as the Alexander company.
Kailos rose from the sofa and walked towards Asher's desk. He handed over a document for a partnership with another company in the furniture sector for the hotel's facilities. "Sir, this is a proposal from a furniture company recommended by Mr. William for the hotel facilities."
Asher received the document from Kailos. Reading the proposal that presented various luxurious furniture with elegant designs, it could captivate anyone who saw it. For a moment, Asher’s expression soured when he read the name of the furniture company.
Asher looked up at Kailos while placing the proposal on the desk. "How long has Dixon been working with the Halbert company?"
Kailos looked at Asher with fear. A bad feeling suddenly dominated his mind. "Almost four years, Sir. Even the Ezoc Company subsidiary has made a significant investment in that company."
Asher stared sharply at the proposal lying on the desk. He had been thinking of a revenge plan for his ex, but it had not yet materialized. There was another clue to achieve his goal.
A sly smile framed his face; Asher wouldn’t waste this opportunity. Asher looked back at Kailos and asked, "Ezoc Company, who leads that company?"
Kailos took a deep breath before explaining to Asher. "Ezoc Company is led by Mr. William Eldorict. Before partnering with Halbert, Dixon first partnered with Rudwick Company."
Asher gave Kailos an order, "Please bring the proposal from Rudwick Company. I want to compare the furniture designs with Halbert's."
Kailos complied. He walked towards the sofa to fetch the proposal Asher requested.
"Here is the document, Sir," said Kailos, standing before Asher, handing over the proposal.
Asher accepted the proposal. His eyes focused on reading and examining the various designs presented. The corner of his mouth curved upward into a thin smirk.
"Why do Rudwick and Halbert's designs look identical?" Asher asked after comparing the seemingly identical designs in the proposals. "Did Dixon propose the partnership with them or vice versa?" Asher's gaze sharpened, intimidating Kailos, who stood rigidly before him.
Kailos bowed in fear. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became oppressive and tense. "For partnership proposals, usually, their companies propose, not Dixon," said Kailos, looking fearfully at Asher.
Asher looked pleased at the two proposals on the desk. The opportunity to avenge his hurt was just a step away. He could take advantage of the design similarities between the two companies.
Asher looked back at Kailos, this time with a firm and commanding expression, emphasizing every word, “Cancel the partnership with Halbert Company! I don’t want to work with a company whose designs are stolen. Also, contact Rudwick Company and ask for guarantees on the quality and intellectual property rights of their designs.”
Kailos nodded in understanding and promptly carried out the order. He needed to prepare the cancellation documents and address the plagiarism in the furniture designs.
Before Kailos left the room, Asher stopped him. “Please bring me the investment fund documents from Ezoc Company that financed Halbert!”
“Understood, Sir!” Kailos truly exited Asher’s room. First, he would prepare the documents outlining the plagiarized designs and the partnership cancellation. Secondly, he would report the investment funds as requested by Asher.
Asher took a deep breath. His body leaned back against the chair's headrest. His face was radiant, anticipating the response from Halbert Company. Besides that, he also wanted to prepare a surprise for Olivia to make her realize that Halbert’s success involved stolen designs. It seemed fun to bring down two traitors simultaneously.
Asher took his phone from his jacket pocket. He called Wilson, asking for help in finding evidence of Halbert Company plagiarizing Rudwick Company's designs. Then, Asher returned to his work.
Two minutes later, Kailos re-entered Asher’s office, holding a sky-blue invitation in his hand. “Sir, I apologize for interrupting your work. I just received an invitation to Halbert Company’s anniversary party. Does the partnership cancellation still stand?”
Asher glanced briefly at the invitation. A sly smile crossed his face. It seemed he had to attend the party, introduce himself to the public, and plan something to embarrass Olivia later.
Asher snapped at Kailos, “I don’t like repeating myself, Kailos!” Asher looked at Kailos sharply, full of intimidation.
Inside, he was satisfied, thinking about his plan for Halbert Company's anniversary party. The sly smile became more evident on his face.
Asher issued another command, emphasizing each word, “Cancel the partnership with Halbert Company! As for this invitation, let’s attend and deliver the bad news on Cody Halbert’s special day!”

CHAPTER 150
Waldric winced in pain, his face bruised as Jorge—his loyal secretary—sat beside him, cleaning the wounds gently. Jorge’s fingers were skilled, but every touch still made Waldric flinch. He had been beaten by Kaylery, all because he had been overconfident that he could control that man. It turned out Kaylery was just as crazy as Asher—if not worse.“Arghh! Slowly, Jorge... slowly!” he snapped, brushing away the man’s hand as it touched the swollen cheek.Not only his face, but his entire body was battered. He had been lucky to escape that chaos. If he had been just a moment later, he probably would have been cold on the floor of Kaylery’s factory.“Argh! Damn it!” he yelled, kicking the table in front of him. Jorge froze, not daring to speak—just waiting for orders, as always. Meanwhile, Waldric’s eyes burned with anger.“Since when did Asher know that I was behind this?” he muttered, almost asking himself.He had arranged everything neatly, ensured the logistics went without gaps, an
CHAPTER 149
The room was silent. Too silent for Kaylery, who had just lost half the power he had held. Her hand was clenched on the edge of the glass table, which was now covered in cracks. Her breathing was rapid—not from fear, but from anger he could barely contain. Project documents,, once filled with profit number,s, were scattered uselessly across the floor. Some had even caught fire near the ashtray, their smoke blending with the thickening smell of hatred in the air. “Damn it… DAMN IT!” Kaylery’s scream erupted. A vase shattered against the wall, followed by her family photos crashing to the ground with a splintering sound. He grabbed the monitor screen and slammed it onto the desk, creating more cracks—glass shards embedded in her palm. He ignored the blood starting to flow. He wiped her sweaty, dusty face roughly. Her eyes were red—filled not just with anger, but with a thirst for revenge. Her hands trembled—not from weakness, but from the effort to resist destroying everything in fr
CHAPTER 148
Asher was standing in front of Alicia’s apartment door. He held a bouquet of pink roses and a high-end box of chocolates wrapped with a black ribbon. A calm smile adorned his face, but the corner of his eye shifted sharply to the left. Someone had been following him—quiet steps, but not stealthy enough to escape Asher’s notice. Now, he could hear a thought whispering from behind the bushes: “Damn! They’re still close? If this meeting started with even a small kiss… enough to make headlines. Barnnet could be in trouble!” Asher’s smile changed. It was no longer gentle, but a sly smirk was barely visible. He knew this was a golden moment. One shot, and it could overturn many of the hidden plans—especially Barnnet’s. He was curious to see how Kaylery Barnnet would react later. Click. The door opened. Alicia stood in the doorway. Her wavy black hair fell naturally, and a dark-gray knee-length dress framed her elegantly. Her gaze was calm, as always, until that moment. The next second,
CHAPTER 147
Jett Carter stood calmly in the center of the boardroom, his gray suit neatly fitted, though the dust of travel still lingered in his breath. In his left hand, he held a black folder containing the investigation files from the Baltimore port. In front of the Dixon executives, he opened each page with quiet confidence, backed by the results of his sleepless efforts."Asher," Jett Carter said firmly, "the Baltimore logistics are clean."He handed over the documents complete with port authority stamps, sample test comparisons, and recorded confessions from the local distributor. The evidence that had only circulated as whispers was now clearly written. All of this had started from a small strategy by Asher, who had deliberately inserted legal comparisons into Dixon’s distribution line, as a diversion."They accepted our report," Jett continued. "They realized that Dixon’s products were not part of the smuggling chain. The illegal goods were inserted from outside, not from us."A few exec
CHAPTER 146
Problems were divided equally, like a chessboard that needed to be cleared square by square. Asher dispatched Jett Carter to finalize the logistics issue—the smuggling of drug-laced candies that had infiltrated the port city of Baltimore. The city never slept, and from the docks to hidden alleys, the illegal goods circulated smoothly. Too smoothly.Meanwhile, Asher himself was buried in piles of files and data. His main focus was on the former construction company owned by Alexander. Every project in the Detroit area was monitored one by one. He reviewed all the reports, checked the contract documents, and even re-examined the field workers. No matter how exhausting it was. He forced himself to finish that day, even though time was insufficient. However, Asher never believed in the word “later.”It had been the fourth week since the conversation about his wedding date with Alicia. And since that day, Asher had not seen her even once. The scandal that struck Dixon had forced him to wor
CHAPTER 145
Asher's gaze was piercing, hinting at a fury on the verge of eruption. After finalizing his wedding plans with Alicia, set for two weeks from now, he knew he had to resolve the scandal surrounding her. He needed to clear his fiancée's name in the public eye. Without delay, he contacted Joseph—his cold tone leaving no room for refusal. He demanded the truth behind the photo. Moreover, he instructed Joseph to dig deeper—into Kaylery. Yet, before his anger could subside, another blow struck. A logistics issue shook the company. Not only was Asher taken aback—even Aberon was stunned. The entire executive team gathered with tense faces, discussing Dixon's shipment to a neighboring country. A question hung in the air: how could their product cause such a problem that it involved international police? "Sir, disaster!" A staff member burst in, his face pale. "There's dangerous contraband inside our product. The logistics team ... they've been detained. You need to intervene immediately
