The Billionaire Nobody Noticed Chapter 40
Dave clenched his fists, forcing himself to focus. He remembered Kathy telling him something important: her mother was the orphanage director, and she had found him at the doorstep one cold night. He had been filthy and unconscious, with nothing on him except a jade-plate necklace and a note asking the orphanage to take him in temporarily.The image of the jade necklace flickered in his mind. He could almost feel its cold weight against his skin. It had been the only clue to his identity back then, yet it was now another piece of the puzzle lost to time.Kathy had also mentioned her younger brother—a simple-minded boy who always trailed behind her. Dave recalled the boy’s shy smile and the way he clung to Kathy like a shadow. The siblings had been inseparable, their bond unbreakable even amidst the harsh conditions of the orphanage.Just as the fragments seemed to align, a sharp, piercing pain exploded in Dave’s head."Argh!" he groaned, clutching his temples as he staggered bac

Dave stood his ground, his face impassive. “Let them go.”The leader’s eyes narrowed. “You’ve got no idea who you’re messing with. Back off now, and I’ll pretend this never happened. But if you push your luck—”Dave interrupted, his voice cold and steady. “What happens if I push my luck?”The leader smirked, gesturing toward his men. “You’ll regret it. You think we’re some street punks? We’ve got backing—real power. If you anger the big shot behind us, not even God will save you.”Dave’s chuckle echoed through the wasteland, a sound both amused and chilling. "I've got some big appetite," he said mockingly. "So, if your so-called big shot isn’t capable enough, they wouldn’t even be enough to fill the gaps between my teeth."The leader of the thugs, a burly man with a scar running down his cheek, clenched his fists, his face flushing red with anger. "You’ll regret those words, bastard!" he growled. "I’ll make sure your death is slow and agonizing!"Behind him, the thug Dave had thro

The leader of the thugs sneered, his expression dripping with malice. "Listen up, boys. As long as we take care of these four," he gestured toward Dave, Zane, the driver, and the assistant with his gun, ".... we’ll be out of here safe and sound."His grin widened as he added with a vile laugh, "We’ll chop this delicate-looking guy into pieces and feed him to the dogs. As for the girl..." His eyes flickered to Zane. "We’ll have some fun first. Teach her a lesson before finishing her off."The other thugs erupted in laughter, some jeering in agreement. One particularly depraved man smirked at Dave. "What about him? He’s delicate, pretty even. Maybe we could have some fun with him too before we send him to the dogs."Their laughter grew louder, a chorus of wicked amusement that filled the tense air. Zane’s face drained of color, and her trembling hands gripped the edge of the car window. The driver, sweating bullets, sat frozen in terror.Dave, however, remained eerily calm, his l

Chaos erupted among the remaining thugs as their leader’s lifeless body hit the ground. Their bravado crumbled, replaced by raw terror.One thug, trembling with fear, muttered under his breath, “He… he must be a martial artist… no, not just any martial artist… He’s a real-time warrior, someone with unimaginable skill!”Their minds raced to comprehend the impossible scene they had just witnessed. Some clung to the hope that Dave's back was turned, thinking they could exploit the moment to attack. But as they moved to act, Dave casually waved his hand.In an instant, an overwhelming aura enveloped the wasteland. It was as if the very air had turned into a crushing weight!The thugs froze in place, their limbs locked in fear.Their legs trembled uncontrollably beneath them, unable to hold their weight.A few thugs collapsed to their knees, their faces pale and drenched in sweat. Gasping for air, they clawed at their throats as if suffocating under an invisible force. The weaker-min
The Billionaire Nobody Noticed Chapter 44
The entire scene fell into an eerie silence, the kind that weighed heavy on everyone present. Zane and her driver sat wide-eyed, their expressions a mixture of awe and disbelief. The words to describe what they had just witnessed eluded them. The thugs, once loud and arrogant, now shivered in terror. Those who had been wailing in pain moments ago lay flat on the ground, not daring to make a sound. It was as if the very life had been drained from them by the sheer magnitude of Dave’s actions. Dave, standing calm and composed, surveyed the aftermath with a dispassionate gaze. To him, this was nothing extraordinary—just another confrontation resolved. Yet, for everyone else, it was an unforgettable moment of sheer dominance. The quiet was interrupted by the faint roar of engines growing louder in the distance. Zane perked up, recognizing the sound. “That must be my father’s men,” she murmured, still shaken but relieved. Dave nodded slightly but didn’t reply, h

As Carl’s men ensured the area was secure, Zane turned to Dave, her eyes filled with gratitude.“Mr Collins,” she began softly, “thank you so much for saving me again. I don’t even know how to repay you.” Her voice wavered slightly as she spoke, a mix of sincerity and lingering shock.Dave offered her a faint smile and shook his head.“You don’t need to repay me,” he said. “It’s nothing. Just make sure you’re safe next time.”Zane hesitated, then chuckled nervously. “You say it’s nothing, but it’s not the first time you’ve saved me. I’d probably be…” She trailed off, unable to finish the thought.Dave’s expression softened, though he maintained his composed air. “Really, it’s not a big deal,” he said. “Don’t let it weigh on you.”Zane smiled, though her gratitude still lingered in her gaze. After a moment, Dave glanced at her, curious. “But, Zane,” he asked, “what were you doing in the slum ruins? That area isn’t exactly known for its safety, and you didn’t have any bodyguards wi

Dave smiled faintly at Zane's compliment, brushing off her gratitude with a modest wave of his hand. "It’s nothing," he said casually. "I only know a bit of martial arts. Nothing too impressive. Compared to your father, who has power and plenty of subordinates to protect you, I’m not much." Zane tilted her head slightly. "You always downplay your abilities," she murmured, half to herself. Dave’s expression remained calm but serious as he continued. "Zane, you shouldn’t go out alone anymore, especially to places like this. It’s dangerous, and not everyone has good intentions." She nodded reluctantly but couldn’t resist asking, "And if I got into trouble again, would you come to my rescue?" Before Dave could respond, he added with a soft but firm tone, "I’m already married. Unfortunately, I can’t fulfill your fantasies." Zane’s eyes widened briefly, and then her face twisted in mild disappointment. Annoyance flashed in her gaze, but she quickly masked it, forcing

Dave arrived at the luxurious mall and quickly spotted Ava waiting outside an upscale boutique. Beside her stood Hannah and her boyfriend, Mark. Ava’s arms were crossed, her expression as sharp as ever.As soon as Dave approached, Ava wasted no time. “Let’s get one thing straight,” she said, her tone dripping with disdain. “The only reason you’re here is because Grandpa insisted. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have bothered asking you to come. Don’t think this means anything.”Dave offered a small, calm smile. “Noted,” he replied evenly. Her coldness didn’t bother him; he had grown used to it.What did pique his curiosity, however, was Jerry’s absence. Dave glanced around and then back at Ava, surprised Jerry wasn't around. Usually, he’s glued to Ava's side, no matter the occasion.However, this time, Jerry couldn't come with Ava because he had something urgent to deal with.Hannah quickly interrupted Dave's thoughts. “Anyway, let’s get inside. The gala’s coming up, and Av

Dave stood there with his fists clenched and his patience finally at its breaking point.He had tolerated enough of Jerry’s arrogance, his lies, his constant need to take credit for things he had nothing to do with.But this time?This time, he wasn’t letting it slide.He took a step forward, his voice cutting through the air with a sharpness that made everyone stop."Jerry," Dave said coldly, "since you enjoy taking credit for things you haven’t done, let’s talk about reality, shall we?"Jerry smirked, completely unbothered. "What are you going on about, Dave? I helped Ava, simple as that."Dave’s eyes darkened."Your father," he began, "is nothing but one of the low-status staff in Hendrix Group—one of the companies under the Great Kevton Chamber of Commerce."The smirk on Jerry’s face faltered.Dave continued. "He’s been hanging by a thread there for months, hasn’t he? The company is downsizing, cutting off unneeded employees. And what did you and your father do?" He chuckled dar

Within minutes, Ava arrived at the chamber—this time with Dave by her side.The moment the car pulled into the grand compound of the Kevton Chamber of Commerce, her heart pounded with anticipation.Ava’s eyes immediately scanned the area, and then—She spotted Jerry.He stood near the entrance, speaking to someone in hushed tones.Ava’s face lit up with relief.If Jerry was here, it could only mean one thing—he had pulled some strings for her."Jerry!" she called, approaching him with a cheerful smile.Jerry turned, his expression smug yet welcoming."Ava," he greeted, his tone smooth and self-assured. "I told you I'd take care of it, didn't I?"Ava’s confidence soared.There was no doubt in her mind now—Jerry had used his family’s influence to get her membership reinstated.She was back.With that assurance, Ava proceeded into the chamber building, walking briskly toward the office that had summoned her.As she stepped into the large conference room, her breath caught in her throat.

Within an hour, Ava was back in the city. The anxiety she had felt on the way had not lessened—if anything, it had intensified. She clutched the paper with the address Dave had given her as the cab sped through the city streets. When the driver finally pulled up in front of the destination, Ava’s breath caught in her throat. Before her stood an exotic mansion—a structure so breathtaking, she had to glance at the paper in her hands again, making sure she had the right address. Dave is here? Ava stepped out of the cab, her heels clicking against the pristine pavement as she approached the grand entrance. Her mind whirled with questions. Who owned this majestic place? How did Dave—the same man who had been captured by Jacob Dale’s men—end up here? Nothing was making sense. The moment Ava stepped inside, she felt as though she had entered a dream. The interior was beyond luxurious, with elegant chandeliers casting a soft golden glow over the grand hallway. The sc

Ava sat frozen, gripping her phone so tightly that her knuckles turned white.The world around her felt like it was collapsing.President Carl… dead.Her membership in the Kevton Chamber of Commerce… revoked.Who did this?Who had the power to shatter everything she worked for in a single moment?Ava’s heart pounded as she tried to think of someone—anyone—who could help.She knew Dave couldn’t help her now. He had only secured her membership through Carl’s influence.And now?Carl was dead… and Dave had been kidnapped.Ava had fled the city to avoid being captured like Dave, and now, she was left feeling completely alone.She inhaled sharply, her mind racing.Then, a name surfaced in her thoughts—Jerry.Jerry wasn’t behind her membership, but his family held enormous influence in the city.Maybe… just maybe…She hesitated for a moment, then quickly dialed his number.After two rings, Jerry picked up. “Ava! I was just about to call you.”His voice was smooth and confident, as always.

Dave moved with the same calm precision of a man who knew exactly what he was doing. His fingers danced over the screen, making a few swift calls.Then, he set the phone down and folded his arms. “I told you, Jacob. I could make you… or break you.”Jacob scoffed, leaning back in his chair. “You’re an idiot and you can do nothing!"Just as he was about to order his men to beat Dave senseless, his phone began to buzz violently on the desk.Jacob frowned, eyeing the screen. His personal assistant’s name flashed across it.With a sneer, Jacob picked up the call. “Make it quick. I’m about to end someone’s life.”The voice on the other end sounded panicked.“Sir… it’s over. We’re finished!”Jacob’s face darkened. “What the hell are you talking about?”“Sir, our company… it’s bankrupt! All our major investors have withdrawn their funds! There’s nothing left! If we don’t act immediately, the company will be a complete write-off!”Jacob froze.His company? Bankrupt? Impossible!A sharp, sic

News of Dave’s capture spread quickly through the Dexter household like a wildfire.Ava’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Dexter, sat in their lavish living room, exchanging concerned glances. The air was thick with tension. The revelation that Jacob Dale’s men had promised to return for Ava had struck a deep nerve.Mr. Dexter folded his arms, pacing. “This is bad. This is very bad.”Mrs. Dexter placed a trembling hand over her chest. “Ava, you need to leave town immediately. If they’re coming for you next, we can’t take any chances.”Ava sat in silence while her mind was in turmoil Run away? Leave Dave behind?Mr. Dexter nodded in agreement. “Not only you, Ava. We’ll relocate the entire family—for now, at least. If Jacob Dale wants revenge, he won’t just come for you. He’ll come for us all.”Ava’s mother sighed dramatically before adding, “And honestly, dear, maybe this is a sign.”Ava furrowed her brows. “A sign?”Her mother leaned forward. “A sign that you need to let go of Dave.

The sun was bright over Nexroh, casting a golden hue over the sprawling estate of the Dexter family. Ava stood in the garden, inhaling the scent of freshly bloomed roses, but her mind was restless. The events of the previous night still lingered.Dave, however, was moving on as if nothing had happened. He had briefly visited the mansion and was about to leave, when he suddenly noticed a sleek, black Rolls-Royce Phantom glide into the compound.Its polished surface reflected the sunlight.The Dexter estate security guards, who normally would have stopped an unknown vehicle, took one look at the license plate and backed away immediately. Whoever was inside had power!As the vehicle came to a silent halt, four tall, broad-shouldered men stepped out. Dressed impeccably in black suits, their faces were expressionless with their eyes hidden behind dark sunglasses. Their aura screamed authority, control, and danger!The leader, a man with slicked-back hair and a sharp jawline, surveyed t

The next day, the Dexter family mansion was lively with celebration. The family had gathered to honor Ava's recent membership in the Kevton Chamber of Commerce.A grand feast had been laid out in the massive dining hall, where the Dexters, their friends, and esteemed guests laughed and chatted over plates of exquisite cuisine. Dave was present as well, sitting beside Ava, though most of the Dexter family still viewed him with skepticism.Suddenly, gunshot rang out like a thunderclap, shattering the lively atmosphere.Then another.Then several more!A cold silence fell over the room, quickly replaced by rising panic. Some guests jumped from their seats in alarm, while others froze in terror with their faces pale.“What the hell is happening?!” one of the guests shouted.Before anyone could react, the grand doors burst open with a deafening crash, revealing a group of armed men. Their faces were hard and their gazes were deadly.At the center of them stood a man almost everyone in N

The few remaining patrons sat frozen in stunned silence, unwilling to move until the danger had completely passed.Just before leaving, one of Scarface’s lead bodyguards turned back and shot a dark glare at Dave. His face was pale and his hands trembled slightly, but he still forced himself to speak.“You have no idea what you’ve done, bastard,” the bodyguard warned in a grave voice. “Scarface’s father won’t let you off the hook. You’ve signed your own death warrant!”Dave didn’t even bother to lift his head. Instead, he casually leaned back in his seat, still twirling a fork in his fingers."If I count to three and you’re still standing here, you’ll never leave by the time I’m done with you."The room grew colder, and an icy silence settled over everyone.The bodyguard hesitated, his bravado cracking under the sheer indifference in Dave’s gaze. He swallowed hard and his legs were stiff, but when Dave calmly said "One."—he panicked and shut his mouth. Without another word, he spun
