Asher paused for a moment as he wondered if this was related to the mysterious man in front of him, who had just given an important folder to older man Addison."Calm down, Ken. I might know who did it. To find out more clearly, who it is. Immediately investigate the person who has returned the 20 percent of shares in our hands!" Asher ordered."Yes, sir. And one more thing, all members have been assigned to their respective positions, with Gerald directly monitoring the progress.""Good!"Asher disconnected the call. Valencia was again stunned by what Asher was talking about."What are you talking about, Asher?""Addison's shares, which were already 70 percent in our hands, were suddenly forcibly taken back by someone 20 percent. Now Addison's shareholders are tied. Unfortunately, it might be difficult for us to break them back in the future.""No problem, there's still plenty of time and opportunity to destroy that cursed family. We have to wait for that time to come patiently.""Yo
Daniel, who got the question, looked at Valencia meaningfully like a longing look that had long settled in their heart. Was that the extent of Prince Daniel's longing for Valencia?Valencia could only look away, avoiding Daniel's gaze, which seemed to raise the memory in her heart. Making pity and guilt rise to the surface of her heart. 'Strange, why does one corner of my heart feel the pain? No, not like this, please. Because I don't know her, I shouldn't be like this.' Valencia thought.Asher clenched his fists with great anger as Valencia responded to Daniel's attitude with a sad look. Asher put his lips to Valencia's ear and whispered. "Honey, why do you look sad? Are you remembering something about your fiancé?"JLEB!!!Asher's question hit the mark, and it made Valencia even more uneasy. She was put in a bad situation. Valencia could only remain silent without replying to his words. His body was weak this time because of the pressure and incomparable anxiety.Seeing Valencia
Valencia's chest rumbled. She hated having her feelings toyed with like this. She felt like someone who lost her way and only found dead ends. 'What is wrong with me? And who are my feelings for? Why do they mean so much to my heart? Why are they demanding to have me? Am I unable to escape the snares of this terrible Fate? Between feelings from the past and the present. All at once. Am I that crazy?' Valencia's mind struggled. She continued to run without thinking about her surroundings until her footsteps stopped at a mini park on the side of Addison's residence. The corners of Valencia's eyes, which were already wet, she rubbed roughly and headed for a long bench not far away. It just so happened that the sky was clear tonight, as the moon and stars were faithfully visible despite sometimes hiding behind clouds. Luze's persistence wasn't enough. He followed Valencia to the garden and sat down beside her without argument. "Go away! Can't you give me some time to myself? What a
"Honey, what's wrong with you? Why are your hands full of blood? Did someone attack you?" Asked Asher while absentmindedly taking each of Valencia's limbs one by one. "Stop doing this, Asher!!! I'm not the one who's hurt. Hurry up! Hurry and help her! She got hurt to protect me. Hiks... I beg you, Asher, help her, his... Help Luze." Valencia pleaded with tears in her eyes. She looked at Asher expectantly. 'Valencia, is this how you feel about Luze? Haven't you gotten over her yet? Should I give in to your selfish request that doesn't respect my feelings?' Asher's heart hurt seeing Valencia's hopeful eyes. "If you just keep quiet. I'll take this as a 'yes'... I'm sorry if I disappointed you, but I can't watch the person who protected me die, or I'll regret this for the rest of my life." Valencia said. Seeing Asher only silent in response to her request made Valencia forcefully pull Asher to follow her without thinking about the consequences. Asher was only silent and followed Vale
Aside from being a millionaire, handsome, and full of charm, there was now one more thing that made them admire Asher, and that was his gentleness. "Oh, my God. Look at Mr. Asher. Why is he so charming?" Exclaimed one of the women who was a guest. "You're right. I can't imagine how happy it would be to be the spouse of the ruler of the business world. Surely his wealth will not be seven generations old." Said another woman who looked at Asher with sparkling eyes. "You guys, stop staring and gossiping. Don't you see, Mr. Asher is carrying his girlfriend very possessively? Don't you know what happened a moment ago when another man met them?" One of the women enjoying wine seemed to be meditating, but she was stirring things up. "Oh.. the other handsome man. Uh.. about that handsome man, doesn't his face look familiar? Who exactly is that man, huh?"Opinions and gossip quickly spread again. Even the quarrel that occurred some time ago is now linked to Valencia and Asher's current sit
Raisa turned her face away in disgust. "Don't touch me. You're disgusting!" Raisa sarcastically said as she brushed Daniel's hand away. "Why are you going wild, Alexa? Must I give you actual pleasure to make you acknowledge my existence?"Daniel's eyes were filled with lust. He consciously lifted the woman in his arms bridal style. "You masher!!! Where are you taking me? Wake up, Mr. Daniel! I'm Raisa, Reina's best friend, the one you love. You can't do this to me!" Raisa shouted right in Daniel's ear. "Noisy! Shut up, or I'll enjoy you right here and now!" Daniel snapped back. "You're crazy! Wake up; I'm not your Alexa!" Daniel's face was already red. His body was already heating up. With what consciousness he had left, he led Raisa away from the party to the car Daniel remembered parking some distance from Brahmantya's yard. With difficulty, Daniel reached into his pants pocket for the key, then opened the side door randomly. Daniel's mad lust was unbearable, so he easily thr
Ken drove his car at a moderate speed, splitting the night and the glittering city of Clayton. Halfway there, Asher suddenly felt what Daniel had felt a while ago. Sultry, burning heat, and thirst attacked him instantly. Asher's face was already red, with his breath starting to catch. Valencia, who was still absorbed in her world, began to feel something was wrong with Asher. She saw the man who had been silent, but suddenly his breathing was ragged. Now Valencia could feel it. "Asher, what's wrong with you?" Asked Valencia worriedly, seeing Asher so tormented. "Damn! It looks like someone put an aphrodisiac in my drink. Ughh... this is really excruciating." Asher replied with a heavy and seductive voice, like a professional gigolo ready to serve his guests. "Asher, should I help you to calm her down?" Valencia squeaked. She didn't say it out loud because she was too shy to discuss sexual matters. He looked at Valencia, who looked at him worriedly, then Asher's hand touched Val
Ken spoke awkwardly to his men. There was no way Ken would blatantly say that his Master and mistress were having sex. Everyone would have been miffed at the ridiculousness of his Master's revelation. Ken's eyes kept scanning the corners and found one of them hiding behind a tree.Asher slowly and sneakily approached his enemy to capture him alive for questioning. Ken stepped in a circular fashion while dispelling enemies from various directions. Right behind the targeted enemy, Ken immediately hit the nape of the neck until it fainted. Thump! Instantly lying down at that moment. "I finally got an informant."Ken left the enemy there and reorganized the backup plan in case there was an impromptu attack from the enemy. Sure enough, a high-caliber bullet suddenly struck Asher's car without a sound. Shutt... Prank!The rear windshield instantly shattered until a scream was heard from inside. "Madam!" Ken exclaimed. He immediately lunged at the enemy. He was sometimes using hand-
