Chapter 3: Disappointment

Twenty minutes later, the doorbell rang. When Dilan opened the door, he saw an old man with an impressive appearance, wearing an expensive suit.

Seeing Dilan who was in front of him, the old man immediately knelt down and said in a respectful tone, “Supreme Lord, I am Bastian Emerson. I will be your loyal servant while you are in Ashwood City. Whatever you ask, I will do it without hesitation."

Bastian trembled as he said that. This was his first time meeting the Supreme Lord; Verdentia Continent's greatest hero.

"You are Bastian Emerson, the richest man in Ashwood City?" Dilan asked with a curious expression. They sent Bastian as my loyal servant?

“That's right, Supreme Lord. From now on, you have full control of my fortune."

Bastian is the richest person in Ashwood City. He owns over 55% of Ashwood City's wealth. If other people saw him kneeling in front of Dilan, they would fall into madness. The most influential figure in Ashwood City kneeling before a young man? That would be the most shocking news.

"Okay, now give me a million dollars."

Bastian widened his eyes in surprise.The Supreme Lord only needs one million dollars? He was silent for a while before finally handing over a black card with a hint of gold in the middle, "There's 100 billion in it, Supreme Lord."

Dilan took the card casually before finally saying, "Now you can go. I will contact you again when I need help."

Bastian then gave a nod of agreement before finally leaving the house.

After that, Dilan asked, "What's your name?"

He asked the ring which was currently connected directly to his brain nerves. This is advanced technology that is the link between Dilan and the government.

[I am R13, Supreme Lord!]

"Find out about the background of the man named Charlie Danver. I want all the information about him, down to the smallest detail!"

[Received, Supreme Lord. Information is being collected.]

It only took three minutes for all the information to be collected.

[Successful, Supreme Lord. Are you ready to accept it?]

"Yeah, do it."

In the next second, all the information about Charlie Danver entered Dilan's head. At this point, Dilan suddenly clenched his fists hard. Great anger again took over him.

"So that bastard is the one who caused my restaurant to almost go bankrupt?! He intimidated all my customers to stop coming to my restaurant?! Moreover, he was also helped by Halton?! Bastard! I will destroy you!"

Halton is the manager at the restaurant. Halton has worked for his grandfather for twelve years and three years for Dilan. But, he had the heart to stab me in the back?! This fact really made Dilan angry.

First, he will clean up the dirty rats in his restaurant. He didn't need them.

The next morning at around 8 o'clock, Dilan found Chelsea entering the house. She came in a long black dress that showed off her delicate neck and slim waist. She also wore delicate and light makeup, making her very charming. In her right hand was a bulging black bag.

When she saw Dilan, she immediately approached him and said with a warm smile, "I managed to get 700 thousand dollars, Honey."

Dilan glanced at the black bag and his wife's appearance. Chelsea rarely look this dazzling and the black bag is not their thing. It is certain that his wife had met someone this morning to borrow the money.

"Did you see Charlie?" Dilan asked coldly.

Seeing Dilan's cold and intimidating face, Chelsea's heart beat fast. However, she still tried to reply, “That's right, I borrowed this money from him. I know you need this money to save your restaurant. So I..."

"So you look pretty to meet him?" Dilan interrupted while showing a disappointed expression on his face.

Chelsea froze for a few moments before finally replying, "I'm afraid he won't lend me the money if I look bad. This is for..."

“So you show off your charm and hope he'll lend you the money? How long did it take you to dress up for him? Do you make sure you look perfect when you look in the mirror?!"

Dilan then approached his wife who was as beautiful as a goddess. Even flowers would look ugly next to her.

"Honey, the restaurant your grandfather left behind is very important," Chelsea said with a guilty face. She had no choice but to do this.

“Did Charlie tell you not to return the money? Instead, you just need to accompany him to lunch, watching a movie, or shopping. Of course you accepted the offer, right? Am I right?" Dilan asked calmly.

Chelsea could only look down with a bitter face. Dilan hit the target precisely.

Immediately, Dilan grabbed the black bag and threw it in the trash, "I don't need this!"

What Dilan did succeeded in surprising Chelsea. "What are you doing, Dilan?! That's 700 thousand dollars! You need it to save your restaurant!"

Dilan looked at his wife's face sharply as he replied, "You should know that I don't need a smart wife! All I need is a faithful wife!"

Hearing that, Chelsea's tears rolled down her cheeks. Does Dilan think I'm having an affair?! Does he know that I did all this for his sake?!

"We have been together for years, but you doubt me, Dilan?! I am disappointed in you!"

Chelsea didn't wait for a reply from Dilan and just took long steps to leave. She didn't even glance at the trash can containing 700 thousand dollars. She was really disappointed in Dilan.

After Chelsea left, Dilan took his cell phone and called Bastian. He asked Bastian to send someone to keep an eye on his wife. He wanted to know what his wife would do.

"I do, Supreme Lord," Bastian replied in a respectful tone.

Right after hanging up the phone, Dilan suddenly received a call from Halton. This is such a coincidence. Dilan wanted to call him a moment before.

"Dilan, come to the restaurant now! We're facing a big problem!" Halton said in a panicked voice as soon as the call was connected.

Dilan on the other hand immediately showed a cold expression. This bastard still wants to play until the end?!

"Okay, I'm coming now!"

After that, Dilan went to his restaurant by bicycle.
