I kept my eyes on the screens, forcing myself to remain calm as Emilian continued to talk.

His voice filled the room, smooth in places, fractured in others, slipping further from control with every word.

But then I saw it.

One of the side cameras shifted slightly, catching movement at the edge of the frame.

A shadow.

Silent.

Precise.

Jason.

He was moving toward Emilian without making a sound, each step measured, each movement hidden by the suit.

He was almost on him.

I did not react.

I did not

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Accountability

    Amber POVThe press conference was held at Asher Corporation's main headquarters in River City.By the time I arrived, reporters had already crowded the entrance. Cameras flashed as my car approached, and the moment the door opened, a wave of voices rose around me."Miss Asher! Is it true that Mrs. Wyatt has been arrested?""Are the Asher and Wyatt families officially at war?""Miss Asher, will you be taking over the company?""Is this connected to the investigation involving the Sun family?"I stepped out without answering a single question.There would be time for answers inside.My grandfather had always taught me that a person who answered every accusation the moment it was shouted at them surrendered control of the conversation before it had even begun.Today, I wasn't surrendering anything.I walked through the entrance with my head held high, my expression calm, and my hand resting lightly on the small handbag at my side.The reporters followed until security intervened.Inside

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   The Asher Name

    Amber POVMy phone rang the moment I ended the call, and when I saw grandfathers name on the screen, I couldn't help wondering whether the entire world had collectively decided that I wasn't allowed to enjoy a single peaceful morning.I answered with a sigh. "Hello.""Amber, where are you?""In the castle. Why?""Good. Stay there until my driver arrives. We have a press conference to prepare for."I blinked."Good day to you too.""Emory called me."That caught my attention."Emory?""He informed me that my sister has been detained."I sat straighter on the bed.Of course. Emory had wasted no time informing Grandfather that the authorities had finally taken his sister. Given the history between the Ashers and the Wyatts, the poisonings mostly, I could only imagine the conversation that had followed."How are you feeling?" I asked carefully.Grandfather was silent for a moment."How should I feel, Amber? My own sister is in custody, and I have spent years believing that the worst of ou

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Willing To Talk

    Amber POV Morning arrived far too soon. I was somewhere between sleep and consciousness when my phone began vibrating on the bedside table. I groaned and pulled the blanket over my head. The phone continued ringing. Whoever was calling had apparently decided that my peaceful morning was a personal insult. With considerable reluctance, I reached for it and answered without looking at the screen. "Someone had better be dying." There was a brief silence. Then a familiar voice replied, "Good morning to you too, Miss Asher." I opened one eye. "Mr. Stait?" "No. This is the queen of England. I am calling to discuss your attitude." I stared at the phone. Then I sighed. "You're enjoying this." "Immensely." I pushed myself upright, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. "Mr. Stait, if this call isn't important, I will personally make sure you spend the rest of your career answering telemarketing calls." His amusement faded. "It is important." Something in his voice made me straigh

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   The Ones Who Remain

    Amber POVBy the time Jason and I returned to the castle, I had nothing left to give.Not to the world, not to the people who had spent years making decisions about my life, and certainly not to the endless stream of problems that seemed determined to follow me wherever I went.For once, I wanted silence.I wanted a locked door, a warm bed, and the certainty that when I closed my eyes, no one would take anything else from me.Jason seemed to understand without my having to say a word.He held my hand as we walked through the castle, his thumb brushing slowly over my knuckles. Neither of us spoke. There was no need. We had spent so many hours fighting, planning, confronting enemies, and trying to protect everyone around us that the quiet between us felt almost sacred.When we finally reached our bedroom, I barely had the energy to remove my shoes.Jason closed the door behind us, and I turned toward him.For a moment, we simply looked at each other.Then I stepped into his arms.He cau

    Amber POVJason and I didn't rush to the gates.The moment Mason informed us that a crowd had gathered outside the castle, I knew we couldn't ignore them. The president had made his accusations in front of an entire country, and allowing the rumors to spread without a response would only give his supporters more room to twist the truth. However, that didn't mean I intended to stand in front of a crowd and answer every question they shouted at me. If they wanted a response, they would receive one on my terms.Jason walked beside me as we crossed the courtyard. His hand rested lightly against my back, a quiet gesture of reassurance rather than an attempt to hurry me along. We had both been through too much recently, and neither of us was in any condition to deal with another manufactured crisis. Yet we had responsibilities, and neither of us intended to let the president dictate how we handled them."Are you sure about this?" Jason asked quietly as we approached the outer security check

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   The Witness

    Amber POVBy evening, the president's announcement had spread across every major news channel. Commentators debated whether Jason and I should be arrested, while others questioned why the government had announced a guilty verdict without presenting a court judgment or publicly verifiable evidence.The accusations against the Asher family were even more complicated. Some citizens demanded the immediate return of the alleged stolen assets. Others asked which properties the president was referring to and why the evidence had remained hidden until now.That uncertainty mattered.The president had expected outrage, and he had certainly received it. But outrage wasn't the same as universal acceptance.Jason stood beside me in the study, reading through the latest reports."Christian has agreed to meet us tomorrow," he said. "His legal team is preparing the original documents.""Good. Have our lawyers prepare a complete record of the Asher family's property acquisitions, including the histor

  • A Woman Worth Billions, Dated the Wrong Brother   Eviction

    I didn’t cry. I didn’t shake. I didn’t look back, or mourned the life and the years i will never get back, lost forever. I just went home, time to pack and say goodbye to my old life. The penthouse doors opened with biometric recognition the moment I stepped inside. Floor-to-ceiling glass. Marb

    We moved quickly through the hallway. Adrian walked behind me, gun raised, covering the corridor while I forced Henry Watson forward. The mansion was quieter than expected. Too quiet. Which meant either the guards were regrouping… or Jason was already on his way. I glanced over my shoulder.

    Jason POV Marcus nearly slammed the brakes. “She shot the camera!” I leaned back slowly. Marcus looked at me. “What the hell was that?” I ran a hand over my face. “She said hello husband before she shot it.” Marcus stared. “…Okay.” Silence filled the car. “…What does that mean exactly?”

    Family drama. Honestly, I was getting tired of it. I shifted slightly in the chair, letting the ropes around my wrists rub just enough to make the guards think I was uncomfortable. In truth, they had tied them loosely—political kidnappers rarely knew how to do proper restraints. Across from me,
