"Any information?" Sophia questioned on the call
"It is taking much time Mam, the situation seems serious. The situation was a little better before but from the time Asher Carter entered the room the situation seems more intense," Tim replied to Sophia
"No one has any idea about Asher Carter or how he is as a person so it will be tough for Oliver to read him in a short span of time. How is Louisa?" Sophia questioned
"Louisa is in the secret Lounge. Sir wanted her safety so he kept her there and he asked Louisa not to step out without his nod" Tim replied
"And Louisa is okay with that?" Sophia questioned surprised
"She was adamant at first but Sir used an emotional angle and that helped us a little. She is a lit bit impulsive and if she slips her tongue due to her rage it will increase more problems for us and we don't want at any cost" Tim said to Sophia
"Yes, she can never take something against her self respect. It is better she stays secured. Tim, don't worry about the work nothing is hampered is, everything is going as per the schedule and our share price is increasing too. There is nothing to worry about anything here, so convey the message to Oliver that it will be better to solve the brawl and make peace" Sophia said from the other side
"Sur Mam, I will convey the matter to Sir. You too don't worry Sir will handle them. You will receive the good news within sometime" Tim assured
"Will be waiting to hear that," Sophia said before disconnecting the call
"Come here" Tim called someone
"Yes Sir," he said after standing near to Tim
"Order the chefs to prepare salads and our special mocktails" Tim ordered him
"Sure Sir" saying that he left the place
"We need to get a hold of this matter in hook or crook" Tim sniffed

"Asher, you are a young man. You know how that hacking is very much possible. Anyone with a powerful internet connection and a little bit of hacking skills can easily do the things, which we want. So someone must have done the same with Elena too. Someone who has an animosity against both you and we might have done this. I think even the picture thing is done in such a way" Oliver explained
"Mr. Miller, I could have believed that if this is anyone but this is Elena Davis who is your daughter's best friend. Everyone knows that your daughter is the best in designing a security system and no one was able to hack any code she has written and she is the one who designs security for your office, your colleagues, and everyone. She is the one who designed Elena's mobile security too so do you think anyone with a powerful internet connection and a little bit of hacking skills can be able to crack that? Do you such low of your daughter's skills?" Asher questioned
"Asher, you are not even cooperating with us. Why are you so adamant to prove your version as the truth? Listen to me Asher Carter, I am being really cool with you because we both are sailing on the same boat and the reputation of both families is at stake. One wrong step from you or us won't affect one person it affects many lives, the employees working in our organizations their families, the shareholders, the stockbrokers, the country's economy many things will be affected as we hold a major chunk of the economy. Everyone looks up to us for inspiration and we can't let these silly things created a barrage between us. Try to understand this small thing using your rational mind" Oliver shrieked out of irritation when the Carter's were not ready to come out to a conclusion
"Can we take a minute Mr. Miller?" Jordan requested Oliver
"Ye Mr.Carter, the lounge is all yours. Take as much as you want but please come out with a conclusion which will be fruitful to both the parties" Oliver smiled
Henry followed Oliver as he started walking out of the room to provide personal space to the Carters and the people who belong to the Carters
"And Asher, you don't need to worry about any spying because these are my close quarters and I only allow the people whom I trust over here and I don't have a habit of spying on my close people therefore there are no secret cameras installed in the room so you can be free. If you still have any doubts you can cross-check yourself," Oliver said to Asher before exiting the Longue
"Sir, how is it going?" Tim questioned Oliver as soon as he stepped out
"They are sucking blood, Tim. I can't understand how these people who literally feared standing before Mr. Miller got the guts to stand against him and ready to fight against him? I can't understand how the hell they turned so daring" Henry Broad wondered
Tim was about to say something but Oliver started speaking. "Why are you so surprised, Henry? Didn't you see Asher? He looks so sharp and is speaking on point, he is so calm and composed but is not slipping out from the topic he wants to convey. Didn't you observe that the scenario was totally changed once Asher entered the room? Until then we were about to convince others but once Asher entered everything changed. He is trying to make everything in their favor. We need to be so careful with him" Oliver replied
"Mr. Miller, is this you?" Henry questioned surprised
"We are in a serious discussion Mr. Broad, so it will be better if you too stay serious without trying to pull some jokes," Oliver snapped
"I am not joking around Mr. Miller, I am seriously saying that I never saw you this intimidated by anyone. How come someone so young and amateur in your field happened to petrify you?" Henry questioned
"I am neither petrified nor intimidated Henry, I am just surprised that how a young man is so confident upon himself and is trying to make us all buy his point of view. I am so sure that the discussion taking place inside is nothing but Asher giving his orders to everyone on what to say," Oliver said to them
"That will be good too Sir as it will help us know his ideology too and we can directly deal with him and offer him what he expects without beating around the bush," Tim said to Oliver
"I don't think he is expecting something from us, Tim. If he wants something from us his body language would have been different but it is not like that. I feel like he wants some kind of revenge from us," Oliver replied
"No no Mr. Miller, I don't think so. He is just trying to prove that he won't bend easily like others. He looks cool and my experience in people says that he is a simple guy who wants to prove his mettle. As you feel that he is being too smart why don't you bring Louisa out and let her deal with him?" Henry questioned
"Mr. Broad, are you in your senses? You want me to bring Louisa into this mess? Do you by any chance forget how impulsive she is or the sharp tongue she has? She is exactly opposite to that Asher and if she enters she will just speak anything which gives them leads to fight over us and increase this mess. I just can't let that happen," Oliver said strongly
"I do know how our Louisa is Mr. Miller, that is why I want her to deal this herself. This Asher is trying to be smart. He needs someone who can strongly checkmate him and just push his theories away and we know how Louisa deals with people. So it will be better to bring Louisa here" Henry said firmly
