Chapter 30
Olivia lies in bed, looking at the ceiling. Asher hadn't called her till now. Maybe he meant tomorrow, as in tomorrow itself. But Olivia is restless, she has such a bad feeling since the whole fight, and it's getting worse tonight.* * * * * * * * * * *Paul asked everyone to gather in the living room at 11 at night. Everyone is present except Asher. He hasn't seen the man since lunch. He was not present for dinner as well."Has anyone seen Asher?" He asked, hoping to get any info on the mob boss."No, why?" Adam answers."I haven't seen him all evening, And I can't find him anywhere," Paul informed all of them."Wasn't he supposed to meet with one of our allies not far from our headquarters?" Steve steps in, and he says, "I remember him mentioning something about Nicolas, but he didn't expand on it." he shrugs."I tried to call his driver, but nothing," Paul says. "This idiot shouldn't be working.""F*ck, can you locate him, Steve," Adam asks, turning to Steven.Steven, who was busy o

"Don't f*cking say that," Adam pulls Steven by his collar angrily. "He could have died or be taken away if his driver hadn't been there."Walter pulls both of them apart. "But he is fine now, Adam. Calm down. His injuries weren't worsened, and he didn't hit his head" He tries to calm both of them lightly."Yeah, I know he is, But still...." Adam huffs."Don't worry, guys. I'll try to talk to him when he wakes up," Paul says, rubbing his forehead."Paul, please do talk to him because the boss won't listen to any of us, but maybe he will listen if his brother talks to him. He always comes to you," Adam pedals, looking like a lost puppy. Asher was the one who saved his life and gave him a new identity to continue living. He is all Adam had in his life. He can't lose him. Never.Paul, who knew, understood the unsaid words in Adam's sentence and nodded his head in assurance. "I'll do my best. If not, someone else can try to help," he says."Who?" Walter asks."Ohh, True," Steve covers his

Olivia just hopes that Asher will forget about what she said now that he has left. She regrets saying that because now, if Asher asks again, what does she even say? But before she could take a relieved breath, Asher's message came. He's back. Oh god, it would make things awkward if she was honest, but Olivia doesn't want to lie, and she wants to tell the truth, but... She doesn't know what she has to do.

When Olivia went for dinner, Asher was busy working. And between his work, he suddenly realizes something. "Olivia called me by my name," he says to Paul, who was the only one working with him currently. "And?" He raises an eyebrow at Asher. "And?? She said, Asher. She never does that. I mean, she did a few times, but that's when I was bleeding out in an alley," Asher clarifies. "Okay. Why do you sound like you hated her saying your name?" Paul asks, confused. "I didn't hate it. And that is my problem," Asher says. "And why is it a problem?" "Because..." Asher struggles to get words out. "Because I said so. Now leave me alone," Asher huffs. "You are the one who started conversing with me...?" "It was a mistake." Paul gets offended by Asher's words, but he pits him because he said something he was feeling, which is a good thing. "I wonder how you will react once you hear it in real life," Paul sneakers. "Her typing your name already has you flustered and blushing." "I'm not '

"Right, My bad, Boss. Sorry" Steve apologizes."Apologies accepted. Either way, who the f*ck stole them from Olivia" Asher curses.Steve feels like Asher is about upturn the entire city for those pastries by the way he snapped at him. So, he cautiously says, "So someone had access to that information.""Yes," Asher agrees."Did you tell anyone about those pastries?" Steve asks."No. No one besides the company," Asher sighs."It could be someone at the company lying to you," Steve makes a comment."Or the neighbors," Asher says."Or the neighbors," Steve agrees."Or someone else entirely," Asher says."Or that... Yes. I'll take a look at the company first and then at Olivia's neighbors again, and it seems to be the most plausible cause," Steve says, thinking deeply."Sure. Keep me updated," Asher agrees."Yes, Boss. You should rest today" Steve looks at Asher with concern"I will" Asher nods with a smile, thinking about Olivia waiting for him.Steve leaves Asher to rest in his room, an
