The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 116
Edward Creamer, after dealing with the devious dog and its owner, chose to enter Diane’s house.Subrina was in the hall, sitting nervously as if she was waiting for him. “Welcome, Mr. Edward,” she came and greeted him. “This is our first time meeting, isn’t it? Diane told me so much about you.”Even though she put her hand forward, he didn’t shake her hand.He just went and sat on the couch. “I came here to thank you for calling the ambulance and helping my son.”Subrina smiled in relief. “I did something anyone would do.”“Not everyone will do what you did, though,” Edward stated. “I appreciate what you did, but why didn’t you stay with my son in the hospital?”Subrina was startled. “Uh, about that…” She couldn’t just tell Edward that she was going on a date with Peter Mason.“Your husband died, and you’re dressed up for some occasion,” Edward voiced his mind. “Are you seeing someone?”Subrina frowned. “Are you suggesting I should still mourn for Richard even though he died many mont

After Edward left, Diane entered the house.Subrina saw her daughter and squinted her eyes. “Where did you go?”“Just to meet a friend,” Diane said and was going upstairs.“Wait, why the hell did you record my conversation with Catherine?” Subrina asked aloud. “What were you thinking? Were you trying to use it against me later on?”“I was recording it for fun, Mom. Don’t think too much,” Diane said.“Tsk, you heard what Stephen’s dad said, didn’t you?” Subrina got up from the couch. “Just forget about Stephen before things get worse for us. They are gangsters. If they decide to snatch this house from us, what can we do? Even the courts and police support them. We’ll be brought to the streets.”“I’m aware of that, and I’ll never let such a thing happen, so don’t worry,” Diane said and then went to her room.Despite what Diane said, Subrina couldn’t trust her daughter’s words. “I can’t waste my time here. Peter Mason would be waiting for me now.”Subrina hurriedly left the house and saw
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 118
“Shit! Stop the car and get out! Now!” Sheryl’s shout startled the ones sitting in the front.Denver immediately squeezed his foot on the brake.“What? What happened?” Catherine looked back and asked.Sheryl kicked the door next to her and sent it flying. She got out.Seeing her, Denver and Catherine also got out.“Run away from the car!” Sheryl shouted as she ran away.Denver, however, heard a noise from the sky. He didn’t even look up. He just jumped across the car and hugged Catherine. It all happened so fast that both Denver and Catherine didn’t quite know what was happening.Just then, the missile came down and struck the car, causing a great explosion that shattered the glasses and sent many objects flying.Catherine and Denver were both blown back because of the shockwave.The knife Denver had brought with him also flew out of the car and flew toward Denver’s head, but Sheryl appeared in a flash and deflected the knife with her bare hand.However, when she turned back, she saw t

Sheryl told the ambulance driver to stop the vehicle, but he refused to stop it and headed straight to the nearest police station.Sheryl threatened to kill the unconscious nurse. Only then, the driver stopped the ambulance on the side of the road.There was a motel nearby.After Sheryl called for backup on her mobile, she took Denver and Catherine to the motel and booked a room. “Let’s stay here until I find out what exactly happened.”“Are we safe here?” Catherine still looked nervous and shaken by everything that happened. “Won’t the missile hit this building?”The missile was so fast and silent Catherine couldn’t even see it even when it struck the car right before her. Naturally, she was terrified on the inside, even though she wasn’t freaking out.If another missile or two were to strike this motel, which would take time to escape from, then wouldn’t it mean certain death for all of them?Denver also felt that Catherine’s question was valid.Sheryl could see that they were expect

The assassin’s body was blown into bits, but it did not cause any damage to the walls of the room.Catherine felt goosebumps all over. Denver pushed Catherine into the bathroom, but he stayed outside.“Are you not going to hide?” Sheryl asked. “These assassins might be a bit too much for you in your current state.”“I’m not ready to kill like you can, but… I won’t just wait for them to come and attack me and the people I love,” Denver clenched his fists, ignoring the fact that Catherine was banging the door, telling him to open it. “You said it yourself. This is war!”Just then, two assassins burst through the ceiling. One attacked Sheryl while the other one attacked Denver.Sheryl managed to duck from a cleaving attack and then stabbed the assassin from behind with her bare hand. She was able to pierce through his body with ease. “Who sent you? Was it Tyron?”“You will die soon, bitch,” the assassin blurted.“Yeah, I hear that often,” Sheryl pulled her hand out, and the assassin coll
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 121
A helicopter came down and landed in front of the motel, with more underlings of Denver getting out.Sheryl personally escorted both Denver and Catherine into the vehicle.“What about the innocent people that were killed?” Denver asked Sheryl.“We will compensate them with some money,” Sheryl was quick to reply as she swiftly removed the bullet from his palm. “However, your style is to make our enemies reap rewards for their deeds. Good or bad. But the problem is that we don’t know who the culprit behind these assassins is. They belong to your sixth brother Tyron, but Tyron could easily say that a few of his men acted on their own.”“I noticed that they had the gun and ax symbol,” Denver pointed out, staring at his bloody palm, frowning a little. “That’s what the officer also had when he tried to shoot me a few days back.”“An officer tried to shoot you?” Catherine was shocked. She was wrapping a bandage around his palm. “When?”“It was taken care of, Cat. Don’t worry.”Despite what D

After twelve in the night.Diane tried to transfer money from Denver’s diamond card once more, but it didn’t work out.“It keeps saying the same thing that the card is temporarily blocked. Dammit. When is it going to get unblocked? I want to transfer more money so that I can become richer than Hollywood singers and movie stars! I can then even live with the celebrities.”Just then, she heard footsteps outside.She looked to her right.Subrina came home, but she wasn’t alone. Peter Mason was with her.“M-Mom, why is he…” Diane was visibly surprised. “Are you two…”Subrina held Peter’s hand and smiled, “We’ve decided to get married.”Diane’s eyes enlarged. “Whoa, what?”While Peter might be rich, he was known to not spend a penny on a cat or a dog, so why would Subrina want to marry such a man?Diane grabbed Peter’s hand and took him to the side and talked with her.“Are you okay in the head?” Diane hissed in a low voice. “How can you marry such a dangerous man? If you get sick in the f

Diane’s face turned ghostly pale. “N-No. I don’t know what you’re talking about. What diamond card? What money?”“We didn’t come here to argue with you, Diane,” Catherine didn’t even want to call this woman her sister anymore. “Whether you like it or not, we’ll take back what you have taken from Denver.”Catherine glanced at Denver.“Do it,” she said.Denver then made a phone call to Bianca. “You can transfer the money back to my account now.”“Give me a few seconds,” Bianca, the vice president of the Den bank, said, sounding as though she was thrilled to do it. “I’m going to make her cry tears of blood!”A few moments later, Bianca gave him the green signal. “It’s done.”“Thanks. I’ll talk to you later,” Denver said and ended the call.“You can check your account balance now, Diane,” Catherine said.Diane reluctantly took her mobile out and checked the balance. She was so shocked she dropped the mobile and moved back a few steps. “No! This isn’t real! It must be a dream! This can’t b

In Creed Zone.The old cobbler who had sent the sandpaper system after Diane was closing up his shop.“I wonder how things are happening with that system. Whether it transforms the girl into a sweet angel or a disastrous demon remains to be seen.”Miles away from Creed Zone.On one of the interstate highways.“What the hell happened in the time we lost sight of the car?”Little Dog, who was in the driving seat, got out of his car before it completely stopped.He whipped his leg, and the wind generated from his kick stopped the flames.“A third of the car on the front side is destroyed,” Little Dog tried to rip out the front door. “Damn, it’s not coming. It melted into the rest of the car.”Big Dog also joined and forcefully tore apart the back door.They were expecting severe casualties, but Diane stepped out with minor wounds and coughing.“P-Please save him,” she hurriedly said and collapsed to the side.However, to her surprise and confusion, the brothers grabbed her and rushed to

Diane used the check Charlotte had given her and credited a million dollars into her own account, which she later transferred to the Den Bank.She was a bit worried about whether the transfer would happen or not, but after the money successfully transferred, she felt so relieved, confident and arrogant at the same time.She mocked Charlotte in her heart, calling her foolish for giving away a million dollars and even allowing her to transfer it to the Den bank.“Don’t underestimate Charlotte Heller,” the sandpaper system warned her. “That woman didn’t seem to have any superpowers, but she definitely gives off an abnormal aura. She’s not simple, so don’t underestimate her and let your guard down.”“Hmph, of course I know that she’s not simple,” Diane snorted. “She’s the owner of one of the biggest banks in the world. I’m sure she has crazy influence around the world, but with you by my side, I’m also sure that I can fight back against such bigwigs. Don’t you agree?”“I do agree,” the sy

After the board meeting ended, Diane was leaving with a dejected look.“You,” Jessica told her. “Come to our office.”Russell and Jessica together exited the room.“Why did she call me?” Diane wondered a bit anxiously. “Wait, if it’s going to give me a chance to talk to Russell, then I’ll take it.”Diane quickly went to Russell’s office.Jessica was sitting on the edge of the desk and was feeding berries to Russell. “Show us the recordings.”“Are you really asking for those recordings after the meeting finished?” Diane sounded impatient.She somewhat envied what Russell and Jessica were doing. It even upset her.“Yeah. Depending on whether you did what I said or not, you will either keep or lose your job,” Jessica warned.Diane then showed all the recordings that were on her mobile.Jessica looked at Russell. “What do you think?”“You asked for ten. She brought twelve. So, what’s there to think?” Russell spoke calmly.He looked calm but also a little tough and difficult to understand.
CHAPTER 277
A few minutes later.Diane arrived at the Creed Tech company, only to see Marlon there on the ground floor.“What the hell are you doing here?” she openly showed venomosity toward him. “The likes of you don’t deserve to step foot in here.”“I could say the same,” Marlon snorted as both of them entered the elevator. “You looked hot as hell, but down there, you were unbearably hot. It felt like I was going to lose my chad.”“You mean you were going to lose your shrimp.”“Hmph, you’re going to regret it if you keep talking to me like that,” Marlon warned. “I’m not the type who’d go easy on women just because they’re women.”Diane took out her identity card.“Finance director? Who? You?” Marlon slightly frowned.“Surprised?” Diane snorted. “I’m not just any finance director. I’m representing Charlotte Heller today, and I’m going to sit alongside the board of directors.”“Oh, then I should go early so that I won’t be forced to sit next to you.”“Haha, you wouldn’t have to worry about it as
CHAPTER 276
Diane got twelve recordings in total.And she was on her way back to the Creed Tech company.Diane’s skin looked much smoother, and she was shining like a barbie doll because her system had done it for her.So, her confidence has multiplied manyfold.Receiving so many gazes from both men and women was very satisfying to her.“Mm?” Diane noticed that a new store was being opened. It seemed like a jewelry store, but the items were all the ones that were found in the Dream Creed game.So, there was a huge crowd in front of the store.The one cutting the ribbon at the front was none other than Marlon Myers, the son of the Myers family.They were billionaires and were famous for their clothing brand.The moment Diane saw Marlon, her heart fluttered once.He was a handsome man who seemed to be around thirty years of age. He was tall and looked like he was the son of a mafia don or something.Diane slipped her way through the big crowd without any problem whatsoever.Her system had made it p

Diane heard a voice ringing in her mind, “Congratulations, cunt! You’ve been chosen by the Sandpaper System!”She stopped and looked around.It didn’t seem like anybody called her.“Was it just my imagination?”She kept walking.“You sure are a nasty person, aren’t you?” the voice rang in her mind again. It sounded eerily familiar to her father’s voice.Diane stopped in her tracks and looked around.Again, there was nobody around her, so whose voice was she hearing?“You cried when your dad died, but on that same night, you secretly celebrated his death,” the voice rang out in her mind once more. “To think you would celebrate your own father’s death… I have rarely come across someone as diabolical as you are.”Diane’s heart started racing.She did buy some alcohol and drank to her heart’s content that very night Richard died.When Denver asked her why she drank, she cried and said that she drank out of sadness and due to the pain of losing her father.Denver easily bought her words.D
CHAPTER 274
Diane left the building, looking frustrated to say the least.“How can the richest man in the country have such a mediocre-looking wife? And her ego is through the roof. How dare she humiliate me by giving me a ridiculous task?”“I have to get video recordings of helping ten people?”“Does she think I can’t do it?”Diane went to the nearest store, which turned out to be selling some kind of liquid.“What is this that you’re selling?” Diane asked. “Why is there no signboard?”“No shops in this region have signboards, ma’am,” the shopkeeper said.Diane looked around. “Now that you said it… you’re right. There are no store names written at the entrance, either. It is strange. How can people know which store is which?”“They just have to ask and find out,” the shopkeeper said. “Only a few buildings like the Creed Tech company or Eco Waves have names written on them. If we do a good job and earn great reviews from our customers, then we can put names on our stores, too. Until then, we can’
CHAPTER 273
Diane was never into online games. She was only focused on fishing men in reality and appearing cool and rich in front of her female friends.However, her whole concept of reality was questioned when she saw the advanced holographic technologies.There were teenagers, who were fighting holographic tigers and cheetahs with their own holographic clones that looked so real.There were some old people using this tech to fight like they were in their prime age.“When did technology advance this far?” Diane’s heart was in her mouth out of pure awe. “Was I living under a rock all this while?”There were television projections displaying the virtual game Dream Creed, and the stats of various players and some of their earnings were also being displayed.“Wow, one of them earned nearly a million dollars just in the past 48 hours?” Diane felt speechless. “I’ve heard this game many times, and some of my friends do play the game, but they didn’t earn much money, so I thought this game wasn’t a big
CHAPTER 272
Two men were sitting in a Honda Accord car which was parked on the road opposite to the headquarters of the Supreme Bank.Both of them were sharing the same cigar as it was the last one in the box.One was Big Dog, and the other was Little Dog.“It’s been forty minutes,” Little Dog sounded annoyed. “Why is she taking so long?”“Go inside and check,” Big Dog said, taking the cigar.“You go,” Little Dog took the cigar back.They both stared at each other, and in the end, neither of them moved from their seats.They were step siblings and were members of the Red Roses group, currently assigned to look after Diane.“I wasn’t told the whole story,” Big Dog said, “but it seems this woman Diane was our Boss’ fiancee, but she cheated on him.”“Why does our Boss have such bad luck with women?” Little Dog blurted with impatience. “If I were in his shoes, I’d happily marry Green Fang and have a dozen kids with her.”“Pfft,” Big Dog chortled.Just then, Diane walked out of the bank and called for
