The Billionaire Nobody Noticed Chapter 15
Without hesitation, Emily and everyone present in the room welcomed and greeted Dr Hayes with the utmost respect. His reputation as a healer preceded him, and they were hopeful that he would be able to save Zane. After thoroughly examining Zane, Dr. Hayes straightened up and cast a disdainful glance at Dave. "This method," he said, glancing briefly at Zane, "of making her undress and sit on hot ginger water for treatment, is nonsensical and clearly carries ill intentions!" Dave who was standing calmly in the corner, met Dr. Hayes' gaze without flinching. "She needs to soak in hot ginger water combined with acupuncture treatment to recover," he stated firmly. "If I wanted to pursue women, I wouldn't resort to such despicable means, nor would I take advantage of a sick patient." The room fell silent as Dave continued, "It's your dirty minds that see ill intentions where there are none," he said, looking pointedly at Noah and Dr. Hayes. Dr Hayes's face flushed red wit

As soon as Zane collapsed, Emily was shocked while Noah couldn't contain his fury. Almost immediately, he grabbed Dr. Hayes by the neck. "What have you done to my sister?" he roared. "If you don't cure her right now, I'll break you into pieces!" Dr. Hayes, trembling in fear, stammered, "I-I don't know! This...this has never happened before! I truly don't know what to do. Plea...please, find another solution quickly..." At that moment, Emily, awakening from her shock, turned to Dave with a desperate plea in her eyes. She realized now that every one of Dave's predictions was correct. Everything had just played out as Dave had predicted! No doubt, Dave probably had the solution to her daughter's illness, so she turned to him. "Please, help my daughter. You were right about everything. I regret doubting you. Please, save her," Emily begged earnestly. Dave looking expressionless stepped forward towards Zane. After all, he was here because of her. If only for Carl's s

As Dave skillfully needled Zane, he explained the situation to everyone in the room. "Zane was poisoned," he revealed calmly. "The discolouration of the water indicates the presence of toxins. But fortunately, the needling and herbal bath have expelled and neutralized the poison, preventing further harm." Emily, Noah, and everyone else present were taken aback. They all wondered who could have poisoned Zane. However, it was not the time for speculation or verification. Emily turned to Dave. "Thank you, young man," she said earnestly. "You've saved my daughter’s life. We can't thank you enough." Just then, Carl Mullen entered the room. The butler had just updated him on everything that had happened since Dave's arrival as he accompanied Carl into the house. Already having a knowledge of the situation, Carl looked around the room, his gaze finally settling on Noah. "Noah," Carl called sharply, his voice cutting through the air like a knife. "How dare you

"The banquet isn't just a celebration; it's also to raise funds for the Jewel Orphanage and Welfare Institute, located in the slums of Nexroh. Aside that, we'll also be assisting my father in selecting qualified candidates who would become members of the Chamber of Commerce," Zane continued. Dave was indifferent about the invitation, until he remembered that Ava was seeking membership in the Chamber of Commerce. He considered how the event would be of benefit to her, so he accepted the invitation. "If I have time, I'll attend," Dave replied casually. However, as he prepared to leave, Dr. Hayes suddenly knelt before him. His face was a mask of deep remorse and desperation. "Mr. Collins, I beg your forgiveness for underestimating you. Please can I serve under you and learn from your expertise." The scene shocked Emily, Zane, and Noah. They had never expected the renowned Dr. Hayes to beg to serve under Dave. "I don't have time to guide you, Dr. Hayes." Dave responde

Dave's plan was to buy a gift for Ava at the jewelry store. Although Ava seemed displeased by the marriage, it didn't change the fact that they were legally married. Deep down, Dave felt the marriage had been rushed. He hadn't made proper preparations and had only obtained the certificate because of Ava's grandfather's pressure. Despite Ava's deep misunderstanding of him, Dave decided to buy her a nice piece of jewelry. Perhaps this would show Ava that he wasn’t as worthless as she believed. Carl offered to accompany Dave into the store, but Dave declined, knowing that Carl owned the jewelry shop. If Carl accompanied him, it wouldn't be seen as shopping but rather accepting a tribute. Moreover, it carried the risk of Carl inadvertently revealing his identity in the store. Therefore, Dave rejected Carl's offer and went into the shop on his own, while Carl remained in the car waiting for him. Upon stepping into the Luxe Jewelry Emporium, Dave was immediately greet

The middle-aged man frowned at Dave, nodding in agreement with his mistress’s words. Seeing Dave as a commoner, he shot him a disdainful look. Meanwhile, Dave smirked in response to the woman's remark. "Look, woman, you have no right to criticize or mock anyone. After all, you are not from a high-class family. You're just some shameless mistress who depends on her sugar daddy for money." Dave's words infuriated the young woman. She completely lost her temper and turned to her lover. "Are you going to let him talk to me like that? Teach him a lesson!" The middle-aged man, eager to prove that he was man enough, snapped at the saleswoman, "Get this riff-raff out of here. He's ruining my shopping experience!" The saleswoman hesitated, unsure of what to do. Should she really ask an innocent customer to leave for no reason? However, before she could make a decision, the store manager arrived on the scene. The manager, a well-dressed man with greying hair, immedi

The guards seized the manager, ignoring his protests and cries for mercy. His desperate pleas fell on deaf ears as they dragged him toward the exit. Once so confident in his authority, the manager was now a crumbling wreck, thrown onto the street outside. Meanwhile, the middle-aged man who had confronted Dave earlier stood pale and trembling as he recognized Carl Mullen, a figure he'd only seen on local TV and heard about in business circles. His knees nearly buckled at the realization of whom he had just crossed paths with. However, his mistress who was beside him, emboldened by her earlier defiance, opened her mouth to speak, but before she could utter a word, a sharp slap from the middle-aged man silenced her. The slap echoed through the store, stunning everyone. "Keep shut?!" The man yelled at her. Tears welled up in the woman's eyes and she was too shocked to respond. She had planned to challenge Carl, insisting she was a more important customer and demanding that

After instructing Carl to deliver the gift to the Dexters' mansion, Dave's thoughts shifted to more pressing matters. He needed to visit the local branch of the Great Empire - Velcro Group. Earlier, he had received a text from the secretary of Velcro Group, one of his subordinates. The message informed him that a shipment of precious herbs and crystals had arrived—resources vital for training novice warriors and regarded as strategic assets. Without Dave's signature for distribution, approval, and allocation, the department responsible couldn't proceed. Knowing he had to act quickly, Dave put aside his recent arrival in the area and his new marriage. Responsibilities awaited him. There was no time to waste. He quickly hailed a cab and instructed the driver to head to Velcro Group, his mind already racing through the tasks ahead. Meanwhile, at the Dexters' mansion, the atmosphere was abuzz with excitement. Ava had invited Jerry and Hannah over to discuss the upcoming c

The banquet hall grew silent as Carl stepped forward with a puzzled expression. He glanced toward Ava, who was standing confidently on stage, having just delivered her speech thanking Jerry for her success. Carl leaned into the microphone. "Excuse me, Ms. Dexter," he began, his voice polite but firm. "It seems there’s been a misunderstanding."Ava froze, her smile faltering as she looked at Carl. The audience murmured softly, intrigued by the sudden shift in tone. "I’d like to clarify something," Carl continued."Neither your invitation to this dinner nor your candidacy for the Kevton Chamber of Commerce was secured by Mr. Jerry here."The room erupted in hushed whispers as Carl's words hung in the air. Jerry’s face turned a deep shade of red, and he instinctively adjusted his tie, trying to maintain composure. Ava blinked in confusion, her mind racing."In fact," Carl added, his gaze shifting to Dave, "the credit belongs entirely to Mr Collins, sitting right there."---Gasps

Jerry shifted uncomfortably in his seat, still smarting from the call with his father. But his ego refused to let him admit defeat."Ava," Jerry said confidently, leaning toward her, "I just confirmed with my dad again. He assured me it was his connections that made all this possible."Ava beamed at him, her faith in Jerry solidifying even further. "Thank you, Jerry. I knew I could count on you."Hannah chimed in, her voice dripping with condescension as she glanced at Dave. "See, Dave? That’s how you step up for someone you care about. Maybe take some notes."Dave clenched his jaw but said nothing. He had already done everything in his power to help Ava, and yet here he was, being dismissed as incompetent.Zane, standing nearby, couldn’t resist rolling her eyes. She knew the truth—she had personally ensured Ava’s selection at Dave’s request. Watching Jerry shamelessly take credit for something he had no part in was almost too much for her to bear."Unbelievable," Zane muttered

After sending the text, Jerry leaned back confidently in his chair with a smug grin spreading across his face.“Ava,” he said, his tone dripping with self-assurance. “I may not have the clout to handle this alone, but don’t worry. My father’s influence is unparalleled. Your name will definitely be on the list. Just wait and see.”Ava nodded, a mix of hope and nervousness flashing across her face. Hannah, seated beside her, chimed in supportively.“That’s right, Ava. Jerry’s father is known for pulling strings. You’re in good hands.”Soon after, the Master of Ceremonies returned to the stage to announce the names of the three chosen candidates for the Kevton Chamber of Commerce. A hush fell over the crowd as the MC’s voice boomed through the hall.“Our second candidate tonight is... Ava Dexter, representing The Dexter Group!”The room erupted into polite applause as Ava gasped, her face lighting up with unrestrained joy. She turned to Jerry, her eyes sparkling with gratitude.“Jerry

The grand banquet hall buzzed with anticipation as the Master of Ceremonies stepped up to the podium. The spotlight illuminated the stage, and the chatter of the crowd fell silent. The MC’s voice rang out, clear and commanding, as he formally announced the start of the prestigious event.“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to tonight’s gathering, where we will celebrate excellence, vision, and leadership..."The crowd erupted into applause, their excitement palpable. Meanwhile, Zane had excused herself from Ava's banter, to handle matters regarding the selection process. Dave took a seat, his expression calm despite the swirling energy in the room.Nearby, Jerry seized the opportunity to boast, his voice loud enough for Dave and others to hear. “Ava, you’re lucky to have me here tonight. With my family’s connections, I’ll ensure you’re considered for candidacy. You’ll be thanking me when your name is on that list.”"I heard that tonight’s highlight will be the selection of three candi

In the privacy of the upscale lounge, Zane was in high spirits. She had just completed a therapeutic treatment and a thorough check-up by Dave.Zane leaned against the back of the chaise lounge and grinned mischievously at Dave. “You know, Mr Collins, if you were my boyfriend, I wouldn’t have to worry about a single thing in life. Everything would just… fall into place.”Dave chuckled softly, shaking his head. “You’re joking again, Zane.” His tone was light but firm. “Besides, my wife is here at the banquet. She’s in the main hall.”Zane smirked, playfully shrugging. “Lucky woman. I bet she doesn’t even realize how much of a gem she has.” She paused, then waved her hand dismissively.“Alright, alright. I’ll stop teasing. I know not to cross the line.”The atmosphere was relaxed and amicable as Dave finished his work. The treatment had gone flawlessly, leaving Zane energized and ready to enjoy the rest of the evening without worrying about her health. She couldn’t help but fee

The evening of the charity banquet arrived and Ava became a little apprehensive after hearing from Hannah that Jackson Tamil would be attending. She feared that Jackson might cause trouble for Dave.Of course, Ava and Hannah couldn’t forget how Dave had confronted Jackson earlier.However, sensing Ava's concerns, Jerry quickly spoke up,“Ava, you’re right to worry,” he said, his voice dripping with faux sincerity. “It’s best if Dave stays out of this crowd. It’s not a scene he’s suited for.”Hannah nodded in agreement. “It’s not about looking down on him, Ava,” she added. “It’s just that we’re trying to protect him. He might not understand the nuances of dealing with someone like Jackson.”Ava hesitated but finally approached Dave. “Dave,” she began cautiously, “I think it’s better if you stay home tonight. Jackson Tamil will be at the banquet, and I don’t want any unnecessary trouble.”Dave met her gaze with calm resolve. “You don’t have to worry about me, Ava,” he said. “But i

Jackson stood frozen for a moment, his mind racing as he recalled his uncle’s warning: “Anyone who exposes this young man's identity in public under any circumstances could create complications they aren’t prepared to handle.”The realization left Jackson with little choice but to defuse the situation in the most casual way possible. With a forced chuckle, he straightened his jacket and said, “This was all just a misunderstanding. A little joke, really. Let’s not make a big deal out of it.”His words confused the room, but Jackson didn’t linger to explain. He quickly turned to his bewildered girlfriend, Elise, and gestured for her to follow him. “Let’s go,” he said curtly, walking briskly toward the exit.The tension in the room eased as soon as the door closed behind Jackson. Everyone assumed the sudden change in Jackson’s demeanor was due to Jerry’s intervention. After all, Jerry had stepped in just a few minutes ago, and Jackson’s response appeared to be an act of deference.J

Suddenly, Jackson froze. His mind worked frantically, trying to place the familiar aura that radiated from Dave. Then, it hit him like a bolt of lightning.Just a day and a half ago, his uncle had shown him a photo of a man. “This is someone you need to be very careful with,” his uncle had warned. “If you ever meet him, don’t be a fool. Make a good impression, or at the very least, don’t offend him.”At the time, Jackson had scoffed at the suggestion. Who could possibly warrant such caution from a family as powerful as his?!But the photo had struck him. It wasn’t just the man’s face that lingered in his memory—it was the eyes. Those piercing, unyielding eyes that seemed to see through his very soul. Jackson had joked about the man looking like death himself, but the joke had rung hollow even then.Now, confronted with the same chilling gaze in real life, Jackson’s blood ran cold!He stumbled back a step, his heart hammering in his chest. How had he been so blind? And worse,

Elise’s face contorted in fury, her pride deeply wounded by Hannah’s stinging insult. She took a step closer, pointing a perfectly manicured finger at Hannah. “You’ve got some nerve, bitch!” She spat. “You think you’re so much better than me?" "Let’s be honest—without her patronage," Elise sneered, pointing at Ava. "...you wouldn’t even get a whiff of the aristocratic circles you’re so desperate to join. You’re nothing more than a sycophant, clinging to your friend because you know you can’t make it on your own.” Hannah’s jaw tightened, and her face reddened with anger. Elise, emboldened, pressed on. “And don’t even get me started on your boyfriend,” Elise added, her voice dripping with disdain as she gestured toward Mark. “He’s a spineless opportunist! If it meant gaining favor with someone like my boyfriend, Jackson, he’d throw you to the wolves without a second thought. You call me trash? At least I know my worth. What about you?” The words struck
