Steven replied, “Ms. Be has gone to bed, Mr. Thompson…”


    “Steven, you’re bing more ballsy now, huh? Are you starting to collude with Be to deceive me?”


    Asher rarely showed his temper, but he was intimidating when he was furious. “I won’t repeat myself.


    Get Be to answer the phone. Otherwise, you will no longer be her secretary by dawn.” Be’s heart


    was beating like a drum. She was terrified. She quickly took over the phone, put it to her ear, and said


    in a sweet voice, “Ash…”


    Asher took a deep breath to suppress some kind of emotion and said in a deep voice, “Be,e out


    now. I have something to ask you.”


    Be walked out of the vi’s door with a worried heart.


    Under the dim street lights, Asher stood in front of his ck Aston Martin with a stern face.


    His elegant gray suit made him look more solemn. The shadow of his long legs under the street light


    was fascinating.


    What a handsome big brother! However, at this moment, Be panicked when she saw him. She was


    like a troublemaking student going to see the principal.


    “Ash…” Be walked up to Asher in small steps and pursed her red lips in fear.


    “It’s cold at night. Let’s talk in the car.”


    Without another word, Asher took off his suit jacket, wrapped it around Be’s thin body, and pushed


    her into the car.


    They sat in the backseat of the car. Finally, Asher could not hold it back any longer. He held her


    shoulders and asked urgently. “Where did that man hurt you?!”


    “My arm…”


    Be did not dare to lie anymore. She lowered her eyelids and felt like a child who had made a


    mistake.


    Asher’s handsome face turned pale. He touched her slender forearms and slowly rolled sleeves with


    shaky breaths.

    her


    The snow-white gauze came into view. Asher’s eyes instantly turned red.


    “It’s okay, Ash. It’s nothing serious. It doesn’t even hurt anymore.” Be hurriedly exined for fear that


    her brother would be worried.


    Asher put down her sleeves again and held her slightly cold hand.


    Asher’s grip was so tight that Be’s fingers turned red. She lowered her head in


    embarrassment and guilt. “I’m sorry, Ash. I shouldn’t have hidden this from you. But I think I can handle


    this by myself. I just didn’t want you to worry about me.”


    After a crushing silence, Asher said word for word, “He will die for hurting my sister.”


    Be’s pupils shrank. Her heart clenched.


    Her eldest brother had been a saint for so long. At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the


    days when he was revered as the king of the underworld-“The Matrix”.


    “Ash, I know you want to avenge me, but you promised me before…”


    Be hugged him and nuzzled her cheek against his heaving chest. “That when youe back to me,


    you will turn over a new leaf. You promised not to touch those things in the past. That guy is just a


    hitman. It won’t do anything if we burn him to ashes. The mastermind is still atrge! Our family has


    always been good at seizing opportunities. Since we have such a great pawn, it’ll be a waste not to use


    it to its fullest potential, don’t you think?”


    The murderous intent in Asher’s eyes gradually subsided. He took a deep breath and reached out to


    the passenger seat with his long arm. He picked up a brown paper bag and handed it to Be.


    “Open it and take a look.”


    Be blinked, took out the documents inside, and was startled to see the contents. “This is…” “Steven


    told me about that man a long time ago. He was more anxious than you to find out who that man is, so


    he took a shortcut and asked me for help.”


    Asher suppressed the anger surging in his deep eyes. “But that punk didn’t tell me about your injury.


    Hah! He really knows how to avoid responsibility!”


    Be thought, ‘Steven is such a loud mouth! I should start calling him Loose-lipped Lovett.’ “I told him


    not to tell you, so don’t me him.” Although Be wasining about Steven, he was her


    secretary after all, so she still had to speak up for him.


    “If he does this one more time, I will make sure he goes back to his own family business. No one can


    tell me otherwise.” Asher was stern and intimidating.


    Be pursed her little mouth and kept quiet.


    She was not even afraid of her father, but she was terrified of her eldest brother when he was angry.


    She would immediately turn into an obedient puppy.


    Be carefully looked through the stranger’s details in the file.


    Suddenly, her beautiful eyes widened, and she eximed, “It’s him?!”
