The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 11
“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

“If she wants, she will come visit you tomorrow,” Denver told her and then ended the call.Subrina couldn’t believe it. “D-Did he just hung up on me? How dare he… I must teach him a lesson.”“Don’t worry, Mom,” Diane, who was in the background, smiled. “I already took care of it. Both of them will be shocked when they see it.”“What did you do?”“You will know soon.”Subrina started to shake her head as she sat next to her daughter. “I don’t get it no matter how much I think about it. How can Catherine like that loser?”“She’s naive, that’s why.”“Haah,” Subrina could only sigh deeply. “We have to get her to change her mind.”Diane didn’t say anything but was just smiling.Meanwhile, Denver reached the hospital and paid the bill for both his and Catherine’s treatment using the card. He received a twenty percent discount because the Den bank was one of the shareholders of the Spring hospital.As they were going home, Catherine was watching him and smiling.“What?” Denver cluelessly as
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 16
The next morning.Denver and Catherine went to the police station to file a complaint on Stephen Creamer. However, the police were not showing any interest, even after Catherine had tried to explain that her pool resort got demolished and that her livelihood was destroyed.One of the police officers took Denver to the side and warned him, “Stephen is not someone you people want to mess with." "Even if you manage to file a case in the court and win, he’s going to come out on bail in a couple of days.""What do you think he’ll do after coming out? He’ll ruin your lives completely.""So, take that girl and leave before you hurt yourself even more.”Denver was not expecting much before coming to the station, but the way the police heartlessly treated Catherine, a victim, was hard to swallow for him. He had seen many unfair things in life in the past three years. But this event was personal, so it hit him extra hard.As the police were not taking her seriously, Catherine said she woul

The massage parlor was a haven of restfulness and tranquility. Its walls adorned with soft hues and the scent of fresh blooms hovering in the air.However, after entering the parlor, many female workers were giving Denver strange looks. Denver didn’t understand why at first.This was the main branch. Diane didn’t work here, so these women shouldn’t know him. So, why were they giving him not-so-normal looks?Denver soon reached the conclusion that it was probably because he was wearing an ordinary shirt and pants.Even when he was walking the CEO, how could they judge him by his clothes?Ignoring these women, he entered the CEO’s office on the third floor. There were two rooms inside the office. In the main room, a soft jazz melody floated from hidden speakers, creating a soothing ambiance.In the second room, a guest room, Denver could see someone watching the television. This was his first time seeing that person, but for some reason he felt like he had seen him before.“Who’s

“Say the words, and I’ll consider making you the gate guard,” Stephen continued to trash-talk Denver. “Given your previous job, this guard job can be considered an upgrade.”Even though Stephen said that, it was obvious that Stephen wasn’t actually trying to help Denver but was just humiliating him.Despite the anger and frustration rising up Denver’s heart, he feared for Catherine’s safety.So, he ended up lowering his head and said, “It’s an honor to meet you, CEO Stephen.”Diane and other workers were surprised to hear that.“CEO?” Some workers wondered why Denver called him that. “Are you the CEO of some company?”“Actually, he’s going to become the CEO of Pinkness,” Diane quickly answered, her voice flowing with pride.“What?” the expressions on the workers’ faces quickly changed. Unlike Denver who was in normal attire, Stephen was dressed up well. One would believe it if he were to say he was the son of some rich guy.“Please come and sit down, sir.”“Do you need any dr

Sedrick was standing on the border wall. He saw a black owl flying in the sky.“Mm…” Sedrick squinted his eyes. “A black one again? I’m getting bored here.”Just then, Philip arrived there ever so silently. “Bored of what?”“Give me the permission to destroy this wall, Young Lord,” Sedrick asked him, not at all looking surprised as he sensed Philip’s arrival.“What’s the point of breaking this wall when Green Fang can easily build it again with her ability, Master Sedrick?” Philip said.“Uh, you are right,” Sedrick let go of his staff, and it was automatically fixed to his back because of the pull from his aura. “Then, are we really leaving this place be? I think we are giving up on a golden opportunity. If we force Denver and take him to the king, we’ll get a lot of credit for quelling an uprising.”“The problem is that he’s not instigating war or violence,” Philip replied.“But he’s taken this land for himself. It’s nothing short of revolt,” Sedrick said, oozing out his intentions t
CHAPTER 237
Catherine did not see Philip coming.Denver was also taken by surprise, so all he saw was a streak of sapphire light.In the blink of an eye, Philip’s aura-covered fist was zooming into Denver’s face.Denver moved back instinctively, but Philip’s fist still struck his cheek anyway.A powerful shockwave pushed Catherine back, and she had to put pressure on herself to make herself weigh more so that she would be able to stay on her feet.Philip didn’t stop and continued to rain punches aimed at ribs and also abdomen and liver.His fists weren’t just mere concentrated points of energy. There was no brute force involved in his attacks, which looked like a masterful art in flow. There were no wasted movements.With every attack he received, Denver felt every drop of blood in his body vibrating and wanting to burst.As a result, Denver felt as if all his organs were about to rupture and break.Denver’s aura still managed to keep his body together, and his hands began to block the punches of

“Why are you here?” Novick frowned after seeing Philip and stood on guard.“Relax, Sir Novick. We’re not going to sandwich you here,” Philip smiled.Novick, however, didn’t lower his guard. “I can’t take your words for granted.” He moved back and made some room so that he wasn’t stuck between those two.“I think twice before shedding my enemies’ blood, so why would I attack a royal knight without good reason?” Philip said. “But if you are anxious, you can leave. I would like to talk privately with my brother here.”His words changed the expressions on the faces of Denver and Catherine.“I have already finished my mission,” Novick walked back without showing his back to them. “So, I’ll take my leave.” His voice faded away.Catherine was surprised that Novick was able to leave without many sounds with his footsteps, almost in the same way Philip arrived here.“This guy’s a monster, too…” she muttered under her breath and stood on alert.Denver was staring at Philip with a mixed emotion.
CHAPTER 235
Denver had no idea who Novick was.There was a chance that he was his sibling, or an underling of his sibling. He didn’t think Novick was part of Penal Hall as their uniform was different.Either way, it didn’t matter to him who Novick was.After nearly losing Catherine due to someone who’s supposed to be Denver’s elder sister, Denver had completely lost faith in the Hawkers.And he realized that everything Sheryl said was true.He shouldn’t trust anybody, even if they shared his blood.Naturally, Denver did not feel like respecting Novick even though Novick had come all this way to talk to him.Novick controlled his anger, despite Catherine and Denver provoking him. “What are you planning, Denver Nighthawk? Why did you build a wall around the Nameless Zone?”“Why should I answer you when you are not answering our question?” Denver asked back.“I’m Novick Norman,” he replied. “The fourth royal knight under His Majesty Casil.”Denver was surprised to hear that.“Royal knight?” Catherin
CHAPTER 234
A giant red spider and a black scorpion were viciously attacking each other, despite both of them suffering injuries in the process.Neither of them looked like they were going to back away from the fight.Catherine and Denver were watching the fight from the side like an audience watching a wrestling match.“I’m not sure if I should be happy or sad,” Denver said.Catherine chuckled. She used a broken bone to pull her hair back and tie her bangs into a ponytail.The spider and the scorpion attacked them, but Catherine used her ability to forcibly make the beasts attack each other.Since then, the beasts forgot about the humans and focused on killing the other beast first.“Hehe,” Catherine rubbed her nose with pride, “one spoiled person can spoil a thousand more.” Denver pulled the bone, making her ponytail slowly come off.Catherine’s lips bloomed into a smile as she wondered if he liked her bangs hairstyle. “Won’t you let me have another hairstyle?”Denver shook his head like a chi

“You’re called the peacemaker and many things,” Sheryl responded, trying to dodge the question as she wanted to avoid fighting Philip as it wouldn’t benefit her or Denver at all. “Don’t you know that the Yakuza have come to the shore? Killer King himself has come with one of the mainline young masters, so I think you should be looking into that instead.”“I have information that the penal hall has already deployed forces to handle the Yakuza,” Philip replied, crunching on the apple along with its seeds. “So, why don’t you answer my question first? Nameless Zone or Rose Park? Which one is it?”Sheryl frowned a little.As far as information was concerned, Philip was unmatched. He had access to almost everything in the world. He knew things that even the organizations like the CIA or Mossad didn’t have access to.Trying to trick such a guy would be highly impossible, Sheryl thought.“You already know the answer,” Sheryl said. “So why are you still asking?”“My master has to hear it from
CHAPTER 232
“He’s on a honeymoon,” Sheryl cheekily said. “So you should leave and come back some other time, Mr. Advanced Robot.”The royal knight very much knew that she was trying to provoke him, and he was up for it.“I don’t go back with my mission unfinished,” the aural sword in his hand vanished into thin air and a giant whitish sword appeared in midair behind him. “I go back when I’m done with what I set out for.”Sheryl frowned. “Is that the mind sword?”The energy it gave off was different compared to just an aural attack.“You can attack with it without affecting the wind or other natural elements, or so I heard,” Sheryl was feeling goosebumps. “All that must have been fabrication, right?”“Have a taste of it yourself,” he said.The whitish sword darted at Sheryl at a speed that didn’t even let her blink once.There was no noise made by this sword, not a whoosh of the wind or a swish of her dress.It came ever so silently with increasing velocity as if it locked onto the target.Sheryl
CHAPTER 231
On the surface.Sheryl unleashed thousands of branches at her opponent who was still high in the sky, sitting on the aural chariot.The royal knight shot an aural arrow which cloned itself into thousands more and destroyed all the branches alike and rained down upon the land, destroyed the wooden houses and land alike, leaving no traces behind.The ground shook for miles all around as if an earthquake was upon it.Sheryl frowned as only the tower she stood on was still standing because of her. All the buildings around her were turned to mere rubble.“As expected, he’s a monster,” Sheryl smirked. “But I’m not going to be easy for you to defeat. I may not have my Nightlaser with me, but I have a stronger ability now. With every fight, I’m only going to get stronger.”“I get that you’re excited about fighting me,” the royal knight’s voice echoed all around. “I love hunting, too, but my purpose of visiting now is to talk to Denver Nighthawk.”“Why?” Sheryl asked. “What do you want from hi

The explosion destroyed the tunnel walls and collapsed the ceiling in that locality.Denver just stood there in a bit of shock because Catherine was completely unhurt because she was able to move the very explosion away from her.Denver smiled with relief as he rushed over. “How did you do that?” he didn’t know she could do such a thing. “You tossed the explosion away as if it was a pillow or a stone.”“I did it reflexively,” Catherine also looked surprised with what she had done. “But did that lizard really try to kill me?”“Yeah. I think it was being controlled by somebody,” Denver frowned as he looked at the bluish black flames of the explosion that were melting the rocks. “Strange… This explosion looks abnormal. The smell is also not normal.”He approached the explosion, despite Catherine telling him not to do it.Denver covered himself with a lightning cloak and stopped by the fire inside the ongoing flames.He was a glowing crystal-like object on the ground.He picked it up, eve
