Asher

"I'll hand over you the divorce papers once I sign them after that our ways will be separated.I wish I would had not met you in first place.I was a fool who lived in an oblivion that I found the right girl."I smirked on her face who stood there like a lifeless statue.

My heart was pricked by millions of thorns when I utter those venomous words for the woman who changed my life by her presence but I had to break so she would leave me and start a new life where no one could threat her ever.

"Okay I'll do everything that can please you because I love you Asher Black and love comples you to sacrifice the most precious thing and you are my everything."She wiped her tears and smiled sadly.

"Better now leave.I regret the day I fooled myself by assuming a mere infatuation as love."I spatted vindictively.My heart clenched inside my chest.

"Good bye Mr. Asher Black.I'll pray that you find the perfect girl whom you can love truly."She said in cracked voice and ran away.

As she left,I waited her to turn back but she didn't.I felt an unbearable longing creeping in my heart.

I badly wanted to grasp her and never let her go.All I wanted was to keep her safe from my evil world.

It had been five years since she left.My life was empty and gloomy without her.

I was in judicial custody for two months in the false charge of Violet.It was still a mystery who murdered her but he or she didn't leave any evidence of the crime.

Though all the available proves could easily find me guilty but my best team of lawyers under Jason's observation turned the table and saved me.

In fact,the media assassinated my character in public's eye.In everyone's opinion I was the real culprit but I misused my money and power in order to get out clean of this mess.

How ironical?

She was all kind to me but I proved to be biggest disaster of her life.I was always been a stone hearted man but she somehow penetrated her way to the secret chamber of my chest where the most cursed thing was safely locked,my heart.She was the only person who showered me with what I wanted in my life,love.

The first few days were like hell for me in my house,it was no more a home without her.Annie stopped interacting with me like she used to when Evelyn was here.She only performed her duties.The four walls seemed like a real prison cell.

Since she left my nightmares became worse.

My past and my life wad not something she must entangled with,I needed to keep her far away and safe.She disappeared from the city when I tried to contact her family through my sources because they forbade me to ever knock at their door and I could not argue on that with them.

I destroyed their daughter's life.

My body trembled and sweat formed on my face.My hands shaking terribly as I rakes them through my hairs.The horrible nightmares started stroking me in day time.

I gulped down a whole glass of water to jerk off her vulnerable face from my memory as whenever I close my eye lids,her image haunt me.

Currently I was sitting inside my office.It took me one and a half year to shoot up our sellings and save our shares in the market,the scandal brought me whole bunch of misfortunes altogether.I earned it all with my hard work,this respect,leadership and superiority among the grey haired businessmen.I achieved everything in my thirties.

Meanwhile,someone knocked at my door.Without looking at the person obviously,I could but only head of the departments and my P.A had access to my personal cabin.

The door creaked open and I heard sharp clicks of heels on my wooden floor.

"Priscellla how many times do I have to remind you to stop damaging my expensive floor by your merciless footsteps and the sound of your foot wears are hell annoying."I yelled.

"Ohh so your mood is still sour of mourning over that bi*ch whom you call your wife."The most vindictive voice floated into my ears.Her voice felt like someone poured molten mercury into my ear holes.

My body filled with rage and I clutched my hands into fists,her presence reminded me of her hellish sins.

I turned swiftly to grab her neck.The woman who left no stone unturned to make my life a living hell stood like a proud warrior over the corpses of defeated army.

"Get lost before my guards push you out from this building and trust me your image will be tarnished more than mine."I warned her.

"Oh my poor Asher!Please God have some mercy on this mourning soul."She laughed like the evil witch,"But wait a minute,for whom are you longing Asher?That trash a wife of yours,who might be living a rotten rat's life by now."

I clenched my desk to calm down my fury,I badly wanted to strangle her for peeving shits about the woman whom I worshipped in the temple of my heart but I do not hit women and touching a filth like her would be next to impossible thing.

"Just leave Sharon.I am warning for the last time or believe me you will face the worst day of your life."I said under greeted teeth.

The woman was testing my patience lever by her rubbish but she laughed more loudly.

"Calm down sweetheart.I pity you Asher Black,you are still not grown up."She sat on the sofa and crossed her legs.Her low cut dress gave a disgusted look of her body.She stoop too low to seduce me.

"You know,you should had married me instead of that poor girl who can never match the standards of being a Black's daughter in law.I feel bad for your parents to whom you brought only shame either in private or public life.She failed to fulfil the standards of billionaire's wife.Well it's not too late.I can still marry you Asher and trust me I can't give you what she couldn't,your high status and satisfaction in your bed."She spoke without a trace of shame.

How much low she could fall?Didn't she had some self respect,she disrespected the dignity of women.I felt disgusting about her.

"Enough Sharon."I barked.My dam of the patience broke.I strode towards her and before she could register my actions I grabbed her hand and dragged her till the door.

"Ahh leave me Asher.You are making a big mistake by hurting me like this."She howled and made attempts to release herself.

Opening the door I pushed her out.She stumbled and fell down on the hard marble floor.

I hated to do it but she left no option for me except to show her the place she deserve.

"Don't you ever compare yourself with my wife you piece of dirt."I pointed my finger at her who shot me murderous glare by her green monstrous eyes.

"Asher you will pay for this very soon and this time you'll regret of taking human birth."She snarled.

"I have been regretting since I met the curse of my life in my college fifteen years ago.I think you're smart enough to guess who is it?"I gave her a slight smirk,"And you can never take her place,in fact you stand nowhere near her.She isn't a low life like you who is ready to sell her dignity just to make a man stirr his member inside you."I spitted in the dustbin kept beside my office door.

"Lastly my needs and my reputation is none of your concern.Everyone knows in our world by which similes does David Smith's daughter is famous.Shame on you Sharon,you even made your cousin Violet a pawn of your wicked plan.You filled her mind with the illusion of my love which was pure friendship.You indirectly killed your own sister Sharon."I yelled on the top of my voice.

She gulped down in fear for the first time in almost two decades.

"You crossed your limit Asher.You'll repent for it,for each insult you thrones on me,remember my words.Y our wife paid for what she did to me in the party that night six years ago.No one mess up with Sharon Smith and you has done it Asher."She sneered and got up.

Her face turned red in embarrassment and fury but I cared least.All just I wished her to vanish from my sight.

"What happened Sir?I heard you shouting."Priscellla came there running and her face turned pale when she spotted Sharon who ran out the next moment.

"Pack your stuffs Priscellla.You are fired as you failed in your job of maintaining my privacy.What the f*ck were you doing when strangers from the streets sneaked into my private territory where my loyal employees of long years never dared to surpass."I shifted my attention on Priscella who stood like a rock.

"I am sorry Sir.Please Sir don't fire me.That woman threatened me and I had no options left except to give her entry to your cabin."Priscella begged amid her cries.

"Sorry Priscellla but there is no room for mistakes in my empire and you did the biggest one that can't be forgiven and ignored.You have ten minutes to leave my company.Don't worry.This company will pay you for this whole month."I stated finally and dashed and walked out of the office building in a hope to take a peaceful shelter in the only place I knew.

"Jason I am coming over your place in fifteen minutes.I hope you refilled the stock of my favorite wine."I said over the phone to Jason and drove off for his house.
