Asher's POVI stood up to greet all the guests. Some of my colleagues greeted me and told me that I was a lucky man for being able to marry the only heir to Joan Zannelith's fortune. I just smiled simply because I knew Daphne was no longer the only one.All the colleagues and business associates aggressively courting their daughters with me came in with desperate faces. Gone were the hopes of increasing wealth through marriage. This old method is still widely used by businessmen to preserve their wealth."I think I'm late in asking you to marry my daughter, Saori." Mr. Zhu shook hands with me. He came with his wife and daughter. His daughter's face was white and round. But Saori wasn't my type at all. I think she's too innocent and obedient. No one can be special in my eyes other than Daphne.Only Daphne.After Mr. Zhu, Liam, Jonas Harry and a few more of Joan's acquaintances, who were young businessmen who had been eyeing Daphne since the beginning, shook hands with me. They're all h

Asher's PoVDaphne and I decided to take two days off after the grueling engagement party. I could have gone back to work the next day, but I knew that it would be unethical to do so. Daphne seemed exhausted from caring for everything the day before the party started. I was exhausted from ensuring everything was ready for the surprise I would make to make Daphne happy. However, at first, she was angry and scolded me because I didn't seek her approval for my chosen concept. But when she saw how festive the party was, Daphne immediately perked up.Daphne thought I was too old to join the party as kids do nowadays. I had two target invitations. The parents would prefer classic jazz, and the youngsters would spin on the floor with DJ music and alcohol. So, I made a barrier between the two. Not forgetting to romanticize it by adding a dance floor.Daphne and I had done nothing all day but eat and watch romantic movies with snacks while kissing. The boring activities for me and the workaho

Asher's PoVI've already felt the loss of all the things I love in this world, but I can't lose anymore. I felt my heart break and ache every time I imagined that I would live a life alone in this world.I trembled even more at the thought that Daphne would never wake up forever. My panic made people sympathize. Some even immediately called people to bring their private helicopters to take Daphne to the hospital as soon as possible. I didn't recognize them, but they all knew me. A few times, they forced themselves to help. I knew all this help wouldn't be free at some point, but waiting for the police and ambulance to arrive seemed pointless.The shopkeeper appeared with a tense face. I forced him to tell me where the secret door out of this place was. The shop owner told us all and guided us into his shop. Actually, this is privacy, he said. But in solidarity with everyone who had helped him secure all his jewelry, he revealed the secrets of his shop. It turns out that this shop has

Daphne's PoVI was discharged after the knife wound from the robbery was just a scratch. Asher looked awkwardly at the doctor, who promised to keep what he saw a secret. But we were both embarrassed already.Asher went back to work. He forbade me from going out and traveling without a bodyguard. I objected. But this time, Asher didn't want to be contradicted. He said that his decision was inviolable. I gave in on the condition that all the bodyguards had to look sketchy while guarding me. Asher agreed and told them all to carry weapons. Again, I felt uncomfortable being rich and thought how easy it would be to be ordinary. Of course, my wish was severely criticized by Sherley, who called me an ungrateful person."If I were you, I'd have my bodyguards walk behind me and follow me wherever I go," he said with annoyance every time he had to listen to my outbursts that he always considered unreasonable."I'm not kidding, Sherley. This was all very annoying. I feel like there's CCTV everyw

Asher's PoVI'm at the office of the city's top lawyer. Daphne and I were taking care of the prenuptial agreement. All property before marriage belongs to each of them, and property after marriage will be jointly owned."Are you sure about your decision? The assets after marriage that are joint will cause you to lose the assets that you have acquired, let alone any losses. I suggest that the assets be separated." The lawyer gave me and Daphne some advice. Daphne and I had some time to negotiate. We finally agreed that the assets would be separated. Daphne said that she and I just needed the loyalty to support each other. In the future, if I suffered a loss or my company collapsed, Daphne's company would not be affected.We updated our wishes about the prenuptial agreement and discussed it as thoroughly as possible. Daphne and I continued to negotiate until we got what we wanted very carefully.After discussing the pre-nuptial agreement, Daphne and I went for a dress fitting. Daphne wa
