Chapter 295 Worries for a Loved One

Finished

No one ever found out who was behind the attack. The person simply vanished without a trace.

Zora was right. If Asher did not want to be found, nobody could track him down.

He was truly brilliant, so sharp that people often said he was almost too clever for his own good. Back in their younger days, Asher stood out as the smartest among Jensen and their group. Everyone who met him could not help but sing his praises.

Even now, many elders in their circle still sighed and wondered what things would be like if he were still around.

MZ Group started to build its business exactly one year after the underground group was wiped

out.

Five years ago… Zora thought back. Her mentor had disappeared for two whole months around that time.

When he came back, he had asked if she wanted to go to Mevoria.

Had he been the one to do it all?

“What is the Hale family like now?”

Now that the underground group was gone, only the Hale family remained as the last trouble.

“They are far from powerful these days. Jensen has kept pushing them back for years. Working with ruthless people always ends badly, and that underground group was never easy to deal with. When the Hale family fell, the group took more than half of their wealth. The Hale family never recovered from that huge loss.

“Frank never had much talent. He only relied on the foundation Marvin had built long ago. family has been slipping downhill for more than ten years.

“Jensen could easily take over everything they own, but he chose not to. He left them be, because he knew Asher well. He was certain Asher would never let the Hale family get away with what they did. As long as the Hale family stayed intact, Asher would come back to settle the score if he was still alive.

The

“Don’t worry. With Asher’s skills, dealing with the Hale family will be no trouble at all. Once he sorts out all his affairs, he will come home.”

Leighton gently stroked her head. Only if Asher took his revenge with his own hands could he ease the deep pain in his heart.

“Okay.”

Zora’s mood stayed low. She tugged absently at the loose fuzz on her clothes.

She felt useless. There was nothing she could do to help her mentor. Until recently, she had not even known who he really was, and yet he had always looked out for her.

“Zora, don’t think you can’t help him. He kept all these secrets from you just so you could live a peaceful life. He never wanted you to get tangled up in his troubles.

“Staying by his side all these years? That is the greatest help you could ever give him.”

Leighton stopped her from picking at the fuzz. He lifted her chin gently. She looked worn out, and her soft pink lips were chapped from nervous biting. She seemed like a flower that had run out of water.

It had not been long since she pulled herself out of hard times, and now she was upset all over again because of Asher. She was still too young to carry such heavy worries.

Leighton had told her the whole truth because she wanted to know. He did not want to keep her in the dark, so he had looked into everything for her. He never meant to make her feel guilty or sad.

“Can I ask you for a favor?” Zora looked up at him, her eyes full of uncertainty. “I’ll do anything you want in return. Make that three favors, whatever I can manage.”

She had nothing valuable to offer, and she was not sure if he would agree.

“Go ahead.”

Leighton frowned when he heard her say “ask a favor”. He hated it when she acted so formal around him.

“Please help my mentor if he ever runs into trouble.”

Her mentor had suffered so much over the years. Zora could barely bear to think about it. He had grieved for his lost family, planned his revenge for more than ten years, and all the while taken good care of her.

He had no one standing beside him. And she could not do a single thing to support him.

“You do not even need to ask. Jensen and I will not stand by and watch. I promise you, we will keep a close eye on the Hale family. If Asher ever needs help, we will step in right away.”

Leighton’s heart felt tender. He knew exactly where he stood in her world; Asher would always come first.

They had known each other for nearly two months. She never once bothered him with requests and always tried to handle things on her own. Yet for Asher’s sake, she set aside her hesitation. Even though she knew how capable her mentor was, she still feared for him and

Asher had no family left but himself, and she was afraid he would have no one to turn to.

Holidays always flew by fast. Soon, only one day of break remained.

Besides checking on Kimberly and Maya now and then, Zora rarely went out to have fun these days. Learning the truth about Asher seemed to push her to change.

She had never cared much about school grades before, but now she studied hard every day. She even asked Leighton to find her a private tutor.

She only took a day off to celebrate Opal’s birthday. The whole family booked a table at a restaurant for the seventy-two-year-old elder, and Zora was going to join the meal.

“Zora, do you want me to come pick you up?”

Zora had just walked out of the neighborhood when her phone rang. It was Jensen.
