Elena lowered her gaze, and after a long silence, she finally said,

“I’m sorry.”

Asher scoffed and wiped his eyes.

“Sorry? There’s no need for that. There was never anything between us in the first place. Now you can take care of whoever you want.”

What right did he have to interfere?

Elena murmured,

“He saved me.”

“Yes, he saved you. I wish I had been the one to save you.”

Even if it meant spending the rest of his life in a wheelchair, Asher wished he had been the one to rush forward and save

    Parker Group was officially managed by Ethan, but everyone knew that Asher was the real boss.And that wasn’t all. Asher owned assets and investments all over the world. Even without the Bennett family, he was far richer than Duncan.On top of that, Asher was likely to take over the Bennett family soon.Duncan scoffed.“No wonder you always smell like money.”Asher said coldly,“Mr. Ashcombe, I don’t like your attitude. You’ve built quite a fortune yourself over the years.”Asher knew all about Duncan’s shady dealings overseas. At least Asher’s money was clean.If it weren’t for their previous cooperation in killing Cedric, and Asher’s promise to keep it hidden from Elena, he would have told her everything long ago.Feeling threatened, Duncan stared at Asher for a few moments before turning to Elena.“Elena, I don’t feel well. Could you help me back to my room?”Elena asked worriedly,“What’s wrong? Should I call the doctor?”Duncan shook his head.“No need. It’s just a headache. I’ll

    Then he asked,“Does Robin know?”For now, Robin was his son, and Asher didn’t care much about Bradley. He had only placed people around him to prevent any problems, not because he was concerned about him.“He knows.”Thomas nodded.Asher waved his hand.“Fine. Let him handle it. We don’t need to interfere.”“Understood.”Thomas wasn’t surprised, but he knew it was his duty to inform Asher.After a moment, Asher said,“If he really wakes up, send someone to bring my grandfather back from Silverton City. I was worried about having him there, and now it’s time to bring him back.”Asher had been afraid that bringing Harold back would lead him to discover what had happened to Bradley and cause him to act unpredictably.But now that Bradley was beginning to regain consciousness, there was no longer anything to worry about.Thomas said,“It’s likely that Mr. Harold Bennett won’t come. He can’t bear to leave Silverton City.”Asher replied,“Just tell him this: Do you want to see your grandso

    Meanwhile, Asher was anything but happy.The renowned international doctor Thomas had found arrived in Brighton City, and Asher first asked him to review Duncan’s medical records.After reviewing them, the doctor, Mattew Wooker, said that Duncan’s condition was hopeless, even to him.Asher asked,“Is his condition really that bad?”Mattew nodded.“Yes. It’s extremely serious. Recovery is almost impossible, and even sitting in a wheelchair may be difficult for him.”Asher frowned.“What do you mean?”Mattew explained,“He will most likely become bedridden and will have great difficulty moving.”Asher thought about Duncan’s condition and remembered how he had been sitting in his wheelchair without showing any obvious signs of pain.He sighed.“All right. Examine the patient tonight, then give me a detailed report after the examination.”Despite the medical records, Asher wasn’t ready to give up. He needed a thorough examination for himself.“All right.”Mattew agreed, aware of his respo

    Elena felt sorry for him again.“But won’t working be too exhausting for you in your current condition?”Duncan smiled.“It’s fine. Physical exhaustion is bearable. Mental exhaustion is harder.”Elena opened her mouth, but remained silent, unsure of what to say.They soon arrived at Duncan’s villa, and Creston helped carry Elena’s belongings inside.Duncan said,“Elena, choose whichever room you want.”The villa had many empty rooms, except for his master bedroom.Elena replied,“I’ll stay by your side so I can help you.”Duncan nodded.“Okay.”Then he turned to Creston.“Take her things to the room.”“Understood.”Creston carried her suitcase upstairs.When Duncan noticed Elena watching Creston, he explained,“Creston was my assistant when I was overseas. When he heard what happened to me, he came back immediately. If you need anything, ask him for help.”Elena gave a dry laugh.“He’s more than just an assistant, isn’t he?”Duncan paused for a moment, almost forgetting that he had al

    Duncan spoke with such sincerity that Elena’s eyes filled with tears. But Asher could only laugh sarcastically when he heard his words.If Duncan hadn’t wanted Elena to take care of him, he wouldn’t have brought it up in the first place. And now, he was only saying this because he knew she would agree.Elena said,“Duncan, you don’t need to say anything more. I’m willing to take care of you.”Elena wasn’t heartless. Duncan had risked his life for her, and taking care of him was the least she could do.Asher called Duncan’s actions selfish, but Elena felt that refusing his request would be even more selfish.Asher had expected Elena’s response, so he wasn’t surprised. He gave Duncan a cold look, wondering how he had failed to see through his schemes before.Asher said nothing more because he realized he couldn’t change Elena’s decision.Ignoring Duncan, he called out to her,“Elena, come and have breakfast.”Elena looked at Duncan and asked,“Duncan, have you eaten?”Duncan smiled.“I’

    Even though he was in a wheelchair, he didn’t want to inconvenience Elena by making her come downstairs. He wasn’t completely helpless.Elena told him her floor number, then ended the call and nervously looked at Asher sitting across from her.“Duncan is coming. Maybe you should…”Elena began, but she couldn’t finish her sentence.Asher had prepared breakfast for her. How could she ask him to leave?Asher understood what she meant and had no intention of leaving.“Why should I avoid him?”“I’m just worried the two of you will argue.”They were both important to her, and she didn’t want any conflict to break out between them.Asher sighed.“Elena, don’t worry. As long as Duncan doesn’t provoke me, I won’t cause trouble with him.”Since Duncan had saved Elena, Asher felt he could be somewhat tolerant of him, as long as he didn’t cause any problems.“Okay, then.”Elena didn’t press him further. She had no real reason to ask him to leave.A little while later, the doorbell rang.Duncan ap
