2024-11-08 09:11:35After Denver sat back on the couch, the manager poured wine to Denver.
“Guigal wine. Twenty years old, and worth 12,000 dollars a bottle. This is only served to those who sit in the VIP lounge. I don’t dare drink it unless the guest tells me to.”
Denver understood what the manager was implying, so he said,
“You can drink it, too.”
“Haha,” the manager happily smiled.
“Indeed, sir. Drinks taste better when you share them.”
He poured wine for himself and happily sipped on the precious alcohol.
The manager took a look at the account details and was expecting to see a lot of money.
But he was a little disappointed to see only a billion dollars in the account.
“You have a billion dollars, sir.”
“Pfft,” Denver spilled out the wine.
“Mm? Is everything okay, sir?” the manager asked. “Was the wine not to your liking? Do you want a different wine? Cote Rotie? Or Rostaing?”
“No, a fly entered my nose, that’s all,” Denver replied.
“This wine is pretty good. But, sir… Did you say there are b-billion dollars in the account?”
Denver’s question was understood differently by the manager.
“Sir, the balance on the card is important, for sure, but as long as you have this diamond card, you could access ample funds within the bank. That’s why I think only five or maybe six people in the world own this diamond card."
"And their information is kept confidential even from the likes of myself. Unless I get permission from the headquarters, I won’t be able to know more details about your account.”
Denver’s eyes enlarged very much.
He kept thinking about the stylish woman who gave him the bank card.
Just who was she?
How could she give him such a valuable card?
He really felt like meeting her again.
“I thought she was a mental case, but it turned out I was the one who doesn’t remember her. I should have gotten her number at least… Dammit.”
And the manager continued to discuss some things with Denver for the next few minutes.
Eventually, Denver came out of the VIP lounge, as personally escorted down the stairs by the manager himself.
Denver’s gaze just happened to look toward the entrance of the bank, where he saw not just Subrina but also Diane and Stephen.
Denver’s heart felt stung when he saw Diane.
All the harsh things she would say straight to his face kept coming back to his mind like a flood.
Sandpaper hands.
Cement Head.
Brick Brain.
All these little insults of hers made Denver unhappy back then, but now, even more so, as all his efforts to be how she wanted turned out to be utterly fruitless.
Meanwhile, Subrina was talking to Stephen in a low voice,
“Mister, there’s an issue with the check. It wasn’t processed.”
“That’s not possible,” Stephen confidently stated. “Get it checked once more.”
“W-Why don’t you do it?” Subrina hesitantly asked.
Stephen coldly stared at her.
“I’ll do it,” Diana took the check from her mother and entered the building.
Just then, she saw Denver coming down the stairs.
For a second, she was startled, but she quickly recovered and snorted,
“What’s a loser like you doing here?”
The manager was stepping forward, but Denver brought his hand in the way and stopped him.
Diana snorted and snickered some more.
“And who’s the clown behind you? Your lackey? You two look like you’re made for each other.”
Subrina saw the manager controlling himself, and lots of calculations ran through her mind because the manager listened to Denver’s words.
She quickly came to her daughter and whispered in her ear,
“Denver was in possession of an ultra-rare diamond card. That’s why the manager is standing behind him.”
(He’s the manager?) Diana’s heart trembled for a second.
(If the manager is acting subservient to Denver, does that mean the card he has is really a valuable card?)
Stephen who was standing right behind them just barely heard Subrina’s words.
He immediately raised his hand and pointed his finger toward Denver.
“You thief! Did you steal my diamond card and then come here?”
Everyone present there, including the security guard, the staff, the assistant manager, and the manager were all shocked to hear that accusation.
Subrina’s eyes widened as she put the pieces together.
“So that’s how it is… He stole your card and then came here to show off in front of me. Quite a cynical plot he brew!”
Her eyes brimmed with raving anger.
Diane believed her mother’s version very easily.
“How could you do such a thing, Denver? You are trash among trash! Give us the card back! Now!”
“Diane… your breath smells like cum,” Denver shut his nose. “Will you please stop shouting?”
Diane’s eyes bulged out of her sockets, and Subrina’s jaw dropped in disbelief.
Both of them couldn’t believe what Denver just said.
Denver never even frowned no matter how badly or unfairly they had treated him.
Not even once.
So, hearing such a ruthless comment from him incapacitated both the mother and the daughter for the nonce.
“Manager, didn’t you hear what I said?”
Stephen stood his ground, keeping his hands in his pockets and standing tall and confident.
“Make him hand over my card. You know very well who I am, don’t you?”

“You know very well who I am don’t you?”Stephen’s words made the manager frown. Seeing the manager conflicted, Stephen hiddenly smirked. In truth, he was no longer as rich as he used to be. His father lost a lot of money lately, but he was still a well-known and feared-figure locally.The manager knew Stephen’s father, which was also why he didn’t think Stephen’s father was capable of having a diamond card. But then again, the card might have been temporarily given to Stephen’s father by the real owner.The manager briefly glanced at Denver who had already entered the correct password. He wished he was able to see the account details, but because of the confidentiality, he was not capable of doing so. It would take too long to get permission from the headquarters, but the problem before him needed to be resolved as fast as possible.Because all the staff in the bank had stopped working due to this incident. The other customers were also looking and probably even recording the i

“Boss, will you give me permission to dispose of this garbage?” Sheryl asked.“Dispose?” Denver didn’t like that word.“Yeah,” Sheryl was still smiling. “Just give me a nod, and they’ll be gone from your sight.”Denver reluctantly nodded,“Just make them leave.”“Okay.” Sheryl then turned to face Stephen, Diane, and Subrina. And she briefly looked at the manager.“You haven’t answered my question yet, bitch,” Diane blurted.“Where did you rent the car! How much Denver is paying you for this act?!”“Shut up,” the manager raised his voice, startling Diane and others. “Madam Sheryl helped me once in the past. She’s someone who can buy dozens of lamborghinis if she wants, and you bastards dare to badmouth her?!” He glared at them. “Security, chase these dogs out!”The security guard, wanting to redeem himself, immediately activated his baton and jumped at them like a gorilla. They had to run out of the bank’s premisesStephen showed some resistance, but the guard did not spare Stephen

Sheryl stopped her car in front of the house and said, “I need to call someone, so you take care of your business here. I’ll be waiting outside. "We’ll go to a doctor to get your head wound checked after that.”“Okay,” Denver stepped out of the car with effort because he was a big man. He didn’t think he’d enter this house again so soon. But because he knew that Diane was not in the house, he believed that this was the right time for him to take the items he wanted.“Denver, who broke the table lamp?” a voice reached his ears.He stopped and looked to his right.A slender but sinewy woman with pretty bangs was standing at the kitchen door, eating a fruit-nut pudding. It was Diane’s sister.“You are silent, so it was you who broke it, huh,” Catherine’s gaze turned a bit cold. “Yesterday, you bumped into a flower vase and broke it. Today, it’s a table lamp. "You’re a big dude, so you should walk carefully. "If you keep destroying things every day, we will run out of things to de

Even after Denver lost memories, he got into some fights when they broke out during work. However, he never fought eight people.Naturally, he felt intimidated by the number of people that surrounded him. He may be the tallest guy among them, but he was still alone.Still and all, he spoke his mind, “Sheryl gave the bank card to me. If you want it, why don’t you ask her?”Stephen snickered. “Do you take me for a fool? Why would I ask her to get my card back?” He grabbed Denver’s shirt. “You are going to experience hell now for what you did at the bank. And then I’ll take this car and the green-eyed cutie, too.”Stephen tried to put his hand in Denver’s pocket, but Denver pushed Stephen back with both hands. It was such a strong push that Stephen was forced back five steps. In that process, Denver’s uniform buttons also came loose and fell, exposing his chest and part of his abs.“Beat him down!” Stephen yelled.All the eight men attacked Denver with their bare hands.

“Catherine!” Diane shouted at her sister from the jeep. “What the hell are you doing? Get away from that cheater! I’m going to call the police and get him arrested!”“Cheater?” Catherine was startled. “What are you talking about?”“He cheated on me, which is why I canceled the wedding and picked this great man Stephen,” Diane blurted angrily, lying very easily as if it was a natural thing for her. “So, get away from that ungrateful bastard! Even after our father saved his life, he doesn’t have any gratitude toward us. "This is why you should never raise snakes, as they come and bite us in the back eventually!”Catherine was stunned to hear her sister’s words. She looked at Denver. “Is what she’s saying true?”Denver’s face had a hardened look.“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Catherine asked again. “That’s because he doesn’t have anything to say!” Diane growled. “That cheater must be kicked out of our lives. No, he must be put in jail, or he won’t let us live peacefully!” Sh

After Denver and Catherine left, Diane came to pick her mobile, and she found the ring box which Denver had thrown away.She opened the box and found the two pre-engagement rings, which were worth about 500 dollars each. She put the box in her pocket and then called for an ambulance, because Stephen was still unconscious.The brown rottweiler, Payne, came running toward her. Diane picked up a stick, causing the dog to run the other way.“This damn dog… why does it not like me but like Catherine and Denver?”“Catherine…” Just thinking about her sister made Diane’s blood boil. “How could you go with him? How could you do this to your family? "You are confident because you have a pool, but what if that pool gets destroyed? "Then you will come crawling to my feet!”Along with Catherine, she believed that Denver would also come crawling back to her and beg for her forgiveness.Danie’s plan was to have a simple, trusting husband like Denver, and then enjoy her life outside, sleeping wi

Denver was driving an old red Volkswagen. It was Richard’s car, but Diane and Subrina wanted to sell it away after Richard died. However, Catherine bought the car from them and had been using it.The car was well-maintained. More importantly, Denver could see the family photo in the front. Even Denver was present in the photo, and it made him feel a little emotional.Denver thought about what Catherine had said in the hospital.“Stephen Creamer is a dangerous guy. "Diane seems to think she can handle him, but she doesn’t know who she’s dealing with. "I’m afraid she and mom will be abused by him.”Thinking back on those words, Denver could only shake his head in frustration.“Diane and her mother don’t care about me,” He was looking at Richard’s face in the photo. “I don’t want anything to do with them, but…”A few minutes later.Denver arrived at the construction site, only to hear the supervisor cursing Jeremy for not completing the cement unloading on time.“You take twice as lo

Henry received a call from David of the Clarke family. He was the brother of Sage Clarke who owned the company.Denver turned to face Henry. (That was fast.)Henry quickly answered the call, “S-Sir David. How are you doing?”“Henry Burner,” David’s voice was heavy and icy,“You don’t have to be in charge of the construction project anymore. And you’re going to be prosecuted for cutting corners in previous projects, too.”“W-What?” Henry’s heart sank into his stomach. “Sir, I thought we were close?”“You fool! You shouldn’t have offended someone who’s out of your league. "Now, there’s nothing I can do for you. If you want to keep your place, then beg that person you pissed off.”The call ended.Henry looked quite confused. Who did he offend? He couldn’t help but look in the direction of Jeremy and Denver. Was it one of those two? No, how could it be them?!Denver raised his mobile and continued talking with Bianca.“It’s done, Mr. Denver,” Bianca said. “He lost his job, and he will

Yellow Tiger burst his way through the walls of the tower and entered the 56th floor.“Was it 56?”He stomped on the ground and destroyed the floor locally, thus falling into the 55th floor.“Mm?”He saw Deenver standing, putting his foot on top of the augman captain who had lost all of his limbs and was not able to regenerate.For a second, Yellow Tiger saw the king in Denver’s face.“Out of all the sons, you resemble the closest to him…” Yellow Tiger commented. “Do you know? When the couples are falling in love, they share more of their parents’ features. So the child looks more like them instead of looking like their grandparents or other relatives.”“What are you talking about?” Denver put pressure on his foot, making the augman captain cough blood out and cringe in pain. “Who are you?”“But you got more of your father’s features and not your mother’s….” Yellow Tiger smirked. “Then again, your skin color is closer to your mother. Your father isn’t as fair as you are.”Denver’s jaw

A few minutes earlier.Alex was brought into the laboratory by a group of four augmen scientists.“Are we going to make another augman out of this guy?”“No, we were ordered to remove his conscience and turn him into a ruthless killer.”“Then we have to operate on both the hippocampus and amygdala.”“While we’re busy working on him, make sure nobody disturbs us, Bulk.”“Sure thing,” Bulk was sitting by the bench, slurping on noodles. He was nearly seven feet tall and looked massive with his muscles hidden beneath layers of fat.He was called Bulk because he never cut his meals. So, he looked like a walking bison.Bulk observed the augmen work on Alex’s brain.They began to extract his memories, which were being displayed on the screen in a zig-zag manner.“So he’s from some poor village, huh. He’s never going to go back there,” Bulk laughed. “So he should thank us.”Just then, the glass doors slid open, and Sheryl entered the hall.Her eyes momentarily froze when she realized that it

Yellow Tiger bent his knees and leaped off the ground.He effortlessly reached the top floor and landed next to Borg.“Where is Denver right now?”“On the 55th floor,” Borg showed him the video feed. “He’s fighting my forces right now. Not sure what he wants, but I’d appreciate it if you can break his knees and take him away… Southern Guardian.”“55th floor, is it?” Yellow Tiger jumped off the balcony and clawed his fingers through the tough cement wall and slid down.Borg secretly smiled. “Yellow Guardian… he’s known for his ferocious fighting style. This martial art monster should be more than enough to deal with Denver. Once Denver is defeated, that’s when I’ll step in and take his ability from him. If I can get my hands on blood lightning, I can take my armor to a whole ‘nother level.”Meanwhile, Natalia used her coat, an advanced tech gadget, to fly through the air and reach great heights where a man was standing atop a cloud.He was a bald man with a rather sad expression on his

Denver went downstairs because he knew Sheryl was going upstairs.“Sheryl’s senses improved greatly after she acquired her superpower,” he thought. “She has more chances of finding Minerva than I do, but I can’t let that slow me down,either.”Denver went for one spot to another in a quick flash while destroying the cameras and any robots that were in his path.“I hope this helps create the diversion for Sheryl to succeed.”Because of the ruckus Denver caused on floors below 60, a lot of augbeasts and augmen rushed to these floors.Denver didn’t use his lightning but rather used aura to blast through the augbeasts, but he only knocked the augmen out.To his shock, the augbeasts regenerated at a visible pace.“What the heck?” He was baffled to see a whole machine arm of an augman captain regenerate fast, but then he remembered what Sheryl had said about regenerating and reproducing bots.“Haha,” the augman captain laughed. “Have you never seen a machine regenerate before? We use what ou

Sheryl knocked the two guards out and tossed them aside.“You went easy on them,” Catherine said as they were rude to her.“They were augmented humans, so fighting them would only waste our energy,” Sheryl stated. “When you fight them, you’ll know.”“I will check for myself later on,” Catherine nodded in excitement.“I think they alerted everyone in the building,” Sheryl also said. “Time for us to change.”They quickly changed their masks to look like the guests.And then they rushed out of the room.Within seconds, many flying bots arrived there, but they didn’t attack Denver and others. They just went right past them.“I was doubtful,” Catherine gave a thumbs-up, “but it worked.”It was Sheryl’s idea, but Sheryl didn’t brag about it.“Were those the self-exploding bots?” Denver queried.“Yeah, the worst part about them is that they can replicate, so there’s no end to them,” Sheryl replied.“Replicate?” Catherine felt like she lost a few of her brain cells. “Aren’t they machines?”“T

To the shock of Denver and others, the first thing they saw after entering the tower was the sight of a nasty orgy.Catherine screamed in horror, and even Denver shrieked.“Don’t make such a big fuss out of a small thing,” Sheryl caught them both as they turned and tried to leave through the window.At the same time, branches spread all around the room and wrapped up the naked people with clothes.All of them were also confined so that they couldn’t move, much less continue having sex.Some of them were too drugged to fully understand what’s going on, while some others shouted, demanding to be let go.“I’ve taken care of the explicit content, so now, it’s fine,” Sheryl said.Trusting her, both Denver and Catherine turned around.“Why did you both react to it like children would?” Sheryl asked. “I can understand if a woman runs from it, but why did you act the same way, Boss?”“U-Uh, I…” Denver didn’t look ashamed. “I’m not afraid. It’s just that I don’t want trouble. The only woman fo

The High Tower was situated on a thick layer of clouds.Natalia and nearly a hundred mothers of the council and many other council workers and officers gathered under the tower.“He probably knows that we’re here,” Yellow Tiger said. He was big and bulky and looked raw and wild like someone who could eat a crocodile alive. “The fact that he didn’t come to greet us immediately shows that something isn’t right.”Natalia was reading the file regarding Borg. “A blue-eyed bastard. His mother came from Atlantis, huh.”“Is that place still inhabitable?” Yellow Tiger curiously asked. “If it is, I want to make a little trip.”“It’s not that far from Africa,” Natalia replied. “You can’t go through the sea route, but you can use the aerial route. All the blue eyed people who live there are beautiful.”Yellow Tiger smiled. “I thought it sank, but if that continent is still floating, I’ll pay it a visit. Does it still have a king?”Natalia shook her head. “Let’s focus on our current mission, shall

In Hawk Park.In the High Tower.Borg was talking with Minerva, offering her food, but she refused to eat it. “If you don’t eat, you’re going to get weaker.”“Just give me my locket,” Minerva calmly said.Borg smiled. “You think I don’t know that you can contact your mother with that locket? I’d rather not fight that monster who can regenerate at will, you see. I’m not sure if I can win against your mother.”“You’re not going to get away with this,” Minerva looked him in the eye. “The council will figure things out. And you will lose everything.”“No one knows that you’re here, babe,” Borg pulled her cheek. “The council will be busy going after Denver, so I have all the time in the world to make you and your dad meet.”Minerva frowned immediately. “My dad? Don’t tell me…”“I’ve already informed Golden Falcon,” Borg grinned. “He said he’s on his way.”“D-Don’t do this. I don’t want to talk to him, much less go to his side!” Minerva growled.“Hahaha, now your expression suits you more,”

Diane had regained her consciousness a minute ago, thanks to her system’s efforts.However, Diane did not attack the brothers.After all, the system warned her, “These brothers are not ordinary. They used some kind of energy in their attacks when they struck you. I had to work hard to remove the seal they put on your body.”“Seal?” Diane frowned a little. “Did they seal my energy point when they struck my neck? They must have learned some eastern martial arts then.”Diane had female friends, some of whom would go to dojos to attract the males. Diane also went there a few times in the past, so she knew a little about the martial arts they used.Some men tried poking her body to impress her, too, but she wasn’t impressed as they weren’t good-looking enough for her.“Even if they are martial artists, can’t I just weaken their organs with your help?” Diane talked with the system in her mind. “I just need to rub my palms, and then… they will collapse, not knowing what hit them.”“Like I sa
