Rise Of Rejected Husband Chapter 146
The helicopter Richard was riding in arrived at the villa on the hill around midnight, before the heli actually landed a group of people were already waiting for him below. The wind was blowing and made some of them retreat a little because the wind had just come back and approached when Richard got off."Welcome sir." Richard was greeted by Bryce, the captain who was appointed to be the leader of the defense force that Richard had prepared.Bryce led the way by directing Richard into the Villa that was the center of their defense there with various important things stored there.Seeing the building after so long made him find many unfamiliar things there. The building remained the same, but not the contents, which had many different things. The place seemed much more filled than before.Richard stood in front of a samurai that was displayed there, the samurai was not a display, but belonged to Bryce who gave it to him and Richard displayed it there. Bryce was a samurai before becomin

"Don't you want to have breakfast first, sir?" Bryce followed Richard behind him.Richard shook his head. "Don't you think it's too early for breakfast?" He asked casually to Bryce, who had just returned from his morning training and accidentally saw him on his way out.Bryce thought about it as he continued to walk behind her. "You can at least wait until the sun comes up, sir, I want to prepare something for you."While still training together, Richard often ate with him, and he made healthy fitness trainer-style meals for Richard several times. Now, when he saw him there, he intended to do the same. He didn't like seeing Richard start to ignore what he ate. Honestly, compared to being the captain of the army that Richard made, Brcyce preferred Richard's security guard, who spent more time near him.She could then pay attention to his diet, and Richard's safety was her priority."Maybe next time." Richard refused. "I want to go back to my place now. You just need to prepare here and

"Enjoy your meal in peace. No one is forcing you to speak in this place." Richard handed her the order that had already arrived.Rosse reluctantly smiled at him. She began to eat happily and was somewhat surprised by the taste of the food, which seemed unfamiliar to her but tasted amazing. "Does it really taste like this?" She asked rather excitedly and widened her eyes.The tips of Richard's lips were slightly raised. He smiled faintly at the figure that initially looked awkward but, a second later, quickly turned liquid because of the food. He shook his head softly. "It always tastes like that in this place, but in other places, it's not as good."The woman nodded, forgetting the fact that she didn't have to talk to be comfortable. Her awkwardness disappeared, and now she spoke comfortably on her own. "I like the flavour. I think I've seen it in many places. They sell it like they sell fried chicken. It's easy to find." She had thought that maybe it tasted like that, so many places

She tried to look at Richard again and shook her head in denial, then quickly put her hand back to hold the door closed again like what Richard had done earlier. "No-no!" She tried to push back inside.Richard, annoyed by this, turned to her with emotion but remained quite calm. "What are you doing? I clearly said that this is not the car that will pick you up. You're the wrong person, and get out while I'm still asking you nicely."The woman named Marrie was staring at him with her lips sealed tightly. She was annoyed at Richard's completely unfriendly and annoying attitude. "I'm sure you're pretending to be Mr. Richard. What I heard is that Mr. Richard is a man with a good attitude, and you don't look that good."Richard believed she was just an annoying woman who would only bother him with her foolishness. But dealing with such a person was even more difficult than dealing with a woman who was ill-mannered and arrogant and liked to put others down."I don't want to know you have to

"I've been waiting for you." Andrea looked excited, walking beside Richard, who did not reduce the speed of his steps at all.She walked into a house deserted by family members, except for the servants, who always greeted and escorted her when she went out. Being alone most of the time, she did not pay attention to her surroundings and was less responsive to people trying to keep up with her.It was only when she heard Andrea's heavy breathing trying to keep up with her that she shortened her pace. "What are you waiting for me for? I'm sure all your needs in this place have been taken care of by the others. If there's anything you need, just tell them."Andrea chuckled shyly. "They gave me what I needed as you said, sir. But I waited for you because of something else. I did not expect you to be gone for so long." She gave the man a quick glance.He was about two days away from home, which wasn't too long for him. Usually, she could be gone for even longer than that, and no one would p

Andrea followed behind Richard, who was walking in front of her. Both of them were wearing tight clothes intended for riding. Richard's pace was uncharacteristically unconcerned with his surroundings. He walked at his own pace while talking to Smith, who was beside him and was talking about his schedule today."In two or three days, they'll have what you asked for ready." Smith looked back at his screen and saw that a message from Bryce had reached him, from which he knew what Bryce was reporting. "Sir, Bryce says what you requested has arrived." He relayed that to Richard.Richard smiled slightly and nodded his head. "They're right on time. Tell him to eat the apple." This was a message they used as a code, and only Bryce and Richard knew what it meant.Smith nodded, he obeyed what Ethan told him. "I'll tell him, sir."She then retreated from there, while Andrea, who had come along with them, seemed to be strolling leisurely and enjoying herself. Occasionally, she played with her ha

As Richard told Andrea yesterday, the whole country was abuzz with the news that several companies' stock prices had plummeted to almost rock bottom.Many people from all walks of life discussed the news, and the media covered it on a large scale and spread it across the country, so practically everyone knew about it."They should have thought before doing it? Why would they choose an opponent they can't fight?" Smith muttered as he watched the news on the television.He knew about the destruction because Richard ordered him to make short work of the companies that were messing with him.Even though he knew they were wrong, the massive losses they faced still made him regret it. Those people could have stayed safe, but they chose to make war for themselves, and now, their actions are only destroying themselves.Smith shook his head, grabbed his suit, and put it on neatly for duty. "It was all because they were too greedy, in the end greed killed and destroyed their own bodies." He wal

Richard, who was outside, was currently busy with his work. He was holding a meeting with the shareholders of the companies affected by his decision.Those shareholders who were divided, with some choosing to side with Richard, were now asking for his help so that the company that held their future funds would not be completely ruined just because the head of the company that had a larger amount of shares sought trouble with Richard."We plan to take over the leadership of the Lord's company." The representative of the association spoke to Richard.The round table filled with those who favored Richard started to get noisy, talking about it with the person next to them."Right!" one of the others exclaimed. "It's not right that we have to bear the loss just because of their actions, sir. This is a personal matter that they did without discussing it with us first, but what happened after their actions was detrimental to us.""We and our families are being threatened because of this, sir

One evening, after a few hours, more than one helicopter landed in the village area, and the whole village became crowded because of this.They did not expect that the missing person who had been searched for by the strangers who came to the village was still alive. To them, it was quite impossible; considering what the storm was like that day and the ocean was a fierce place, they did not think that the missing person was still safe and intact."Mr. Richard." Smith got off first and came to him hurriedly.The 45-year-old man hugged Richard so tightly and emotionally that he had almost given up hope in his quest to find Richard. He himself had even stopped hoping that the possibility of Richard being alive and somewhere was such a great miracle. He was alive and found somewhere.Smith released his embrace and looked at Richard with happiness mixed with emotion. "I'm glad you're okay, sir."After Smith let go, James, who was led by Rachel, hugged him tightly. "I trust you are doing wel

"Alright, then. Tomorrow, we will go to look for your family's whereabouts." Alexa made the choice; Richard looked at her, who seemed confused.Richard didn't understand why Alexa seemed so serious when they had never discussed it with obvious effort before. "Why all of a sudden?" he wondered if perhaps they no longer wanted him there. Is it possible that my presence is becoming inconvenient?"Alexa smiled with a shaded face, her head shook, and her hand rubbed lightly over the back of Richard's hand, trying to get his attention. "No, it's not. Your existence is not inconvenient at all; quite the opposite. I'm honestly grateful to have you here." Alexa pursed her lips tightly and turned her attention to stare straight back ahead.She stared at the vast and calm expanse of the sea. Her feelings about letting go of Richard were still quite reluctant. She had a great desire to keep Richard there, but she also didn't want to be selfish."Today my friend came to tell me that in the village

After finishing cleaning up, Richard went to Alexa, who also seemed to be cleaning up the glasses in their house's living room.Richard's eyes scanned the place, looking for the whereabouts of the guest whose voice had been heard earlier when he entered through the back door. "Has the guest gone home?" he glanced over and helped Alexa.Without hesitation, Richard's hand took over the tray Alexa was carrying and placed it in the kitchen. At the same time, Alexa followed suit, carrying the snack container. "Yes, they're home." She replied flatly, without any expression that sounded cheerful from her answer.Richard watched her, noticing something a little different about Alexa's demeanour compared to usual. He thought maybe the guests had affected her mood, or maybe something else was to blame. He wasn't sure exactly, but even he didn't want to ask if Alexa didn't seem to want to explain. "Who are the guests who came?" She made small talk while walking towards the dining table.Approach

"Jacob, where are you going?" one of the villagers greeted Richard, who seemed to be walking with an axe in his hand. "Are you heading to the forest?" he asked enthusiastically because he was happy to see Richard, one of the new residents there.Richard, who had just managed to turn around and look for who was talking to him, smiled and nodded. "Morning, Mr. Jack." He politely greeted the old man whom he recognized as Sam's friend."Yes, morning, young man." He smiled kindly in response to Richard's greeting. "If you have time, come to the house. You promised to help me yesterday when you were free."Richard nodded. "Later, when I am free, I will try to drop by, sir. " He selflessly helped some nearby neighbours who needed his help.It had been a month since he had been in that place, and now he was living a very normal life there. Just like everyone else, Richard also had his own activities. Sometimes, he joined some men to go fishing at sea, without him knowing that he used to be a

Sitting in his private room, James looked anxiously at the picture frame containing Richard's picture. For days, he had been waiting for news of Richard and conducted a massive search. But the search was ultimately fruitless. There were still no reports of Richard's whereabouts or any signs of him being stranded somewhere.Her worries grew as time passed. The first 24 hours after Richard disappeared were the golden hour to find his whereabouts and determine whether he was in good or bad condition.But a week had passed since then, and there was still no further news of his whereabouts."Is there still no sign of Richard's whereabouts?" James asked Smith in the room.His anxiety was rife with other things, his heart was in turmoil, and his feelings had become chaotic since Richard's whereabouts were declared missing.The news of Richard's disappearance made him not stop thinking about where Richard was and what the situation was like. His condition, which he continues to worry about, c

"What took you so long to come back?" Alexa, who was waiting there, turned her head and noticed Richard, who had just returned, walking over to her.Richard nodded his head. "In line." he took over the groceries held by Alexa.Telling her about what he experienced while inside earlier, for him, Alexa didn't need to know that the Baron was still bothering him. Apart from not wanting to make the woman anxious, he also didn't want Alexa to have a particular view of his attitude that could be considered rude by her.He smiled at the woman. "Do we have anything else to do? Or do you want us to go home?"Alexa helped Richard carry a few easy things to take to not burden Richard too much. "Let's just go home; it's too late. Tomorrow, I have to get up early to store breakfast because Dad will be leaving early in the morning." She started to leave the place, followed by Richard, who walked beside her."Tomorrow morning? Where is Sam going?""Dad said there is someone he needs to help. One of t

Alexa glanced at Richard with a gaze that stared strangely at him."Why are you looking at me like that?" Richard, who realized her gaze, then asked.Alexa headed back to stare straight ahead. "I was just wondering. How could you do that? When you did it earlier, I looked so expert. Unlike someone who just tried, your posture and then the techniques you used seemed to clearly show that you were an expert." She looked back at Richard in confusion. "Tell me, how did you do it?"Richard looked at her in silence for a while. Like Alexa, he was confused by what had been done. He did not expect that his ability was that great.The more he thought about it, the more astonished he became. He obviously didn't remember anything at all., but strangely, he could do it all so well. "I don't know., Richard shook his head as he replied. "I'm not sure myself what I'm doing and how I'm doing it so well. All I feel is that my body knows how to do it." He explained the confusion to Alexa.After hearing

"No, it can't be like that. I disagree that I should stay away from her." Baron rejected their agreement, which he agreed to without thinking.Obviously, Baron rejected Richard's request to limit his interaction with Alexa. He dared challenge Richard and felt hateful and annoyed at him because Alex was the reason. He didn't want any other man or Richard to get close to him.Baron has liked Alexa for a long time, and Jack, from their teenage stuff, has always followed and been attracted to her. But his feelings were unrequited because Alexa didn't show any interest in him at all.The Baron knew that. He knew that Alexa didn't like him, but he still tried to get close to her, hoping that someday Alexa would change her mind. He kept trying and never gave up because he thought that maybe his efforts would be rewarded with what he hoped for someday.But if he couldn't get close to her in the end just because he lost the bet, then his efforts all this time were futile and ridiculous.He sho

The two of them were now in their respective positions, wearing a set of arrows and getting ready in place. He arrows where they were. They were surrounded by people who wanted to witness the showdown between the two.On one side, Richard only came along with Alexa, who was currently so nervous and anxious about the possibility of Richard's condition getting a bad name with this challenge.On the other hand, Baron was surrounded by friends who were eager to see Richard defeated. The young men of the village clearly disliked Richard's existence and the way Richard behaved towards them.Specifically, they didn't need a reason to dislike Richard because even just looking at him could immediately make them dislike him and want to look down on him."Shouldn't you undo your intentions, Jacob?" Alexa approached him again and spoke in a worried tone.She was distraught, having promised her father that she would look after Richard. She would take Richard there with the insight that maybe from
