The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 29
The gun was inches away from Denver’s face.But the sound of the gun trigger also triggered a reaction in Denver’s face. His head moved back, and the bullet grazed past his hair and hit the wall.“You dodged that?” the officer frowned and was about to press the trigger again.The second officer immediately took his silencer-equipped gun out and shot the officer in the chest.Denver was stunned and confused at the same time.“Don’t worry, Boss. I work under Madam Sheryl,” the second officer said and checked for a mark on the other officer’s shoulder. There was a symbol of gun and axe crossing on the shoulder. “As I thought, he’s part of the Hawkers, but from another ‘kettle.’ I’ll deal with the body, so you go back to your room and act like nothing happened.”Denver didn’t know what was going on, but he heard some doors opening, so he went upstairs and told the ladies that everything was okay.None of them dared to check after Denver said those words, and they went back to their rooms.

Catherine told Denver that she’s going to find a job for herself and left the apartment after giving him the spare key.Some girls in the apartment asked Catherine about the sound last night, but she asked them, ‘what sound?’ They asked her if she fought with Denver or something, but she didn’t even answer their question and just told them to mind their business.Meanwhile, Denver cleaned the place first and was about to leave, but Catherine’s friends just happened to visit.They were all surprised to see Denver coming out of her flat. Two of them knew him, but the other two didn’t.“Is that a thief?” one of the girls quickly said.“No, he’s Catherine’s sister’s fiance,” another girl said, “though I don’t remember his name.”“Look how big he is. Are those real muscles, or is he wearing a fake body within?”All four of the girls were in sports attire as they were athletes trying to win medals for the state and the country. They all looked fit and healthy just like Catherine, though one

Denver came to Cat Pools.The Clarke company members were already clearing out all the broken rubble. The new manager was showing different plans to Denver. “Pick whichever one fits you for this place, sir.”Denver didn’t even sign the contract, so he was surprised to see how the Clarke company was rushing things. On one hand, he was happy for the work happening rapidly, but on the other hand, he was also a bit nervous that Sage Clarke might be expecting something from him in return.“I need some time to pick one design,” Denver told the manager.“Sure, sir. I’ll ask you again after we prepare this plot for the construction,” the manager told him.Denver then sent the design pictures to Catherine.She was sitting outside the interview room and was surprised to see the pictures. She called Denver quickly. “Why did you send me those dreamy pool pictures?”“Which one do you like the most out of all those?” Denver asked her.“Why are you asking?”“Can’t I casually ask you such a question?”

In Diane’s house.“You’re kidding, right?” Diane was also taken aback. “What do you mean I’m pregnant?”What sort of news is this right after she woke up after having a tough day twice in a row?“There’s no way this can be true…” Diane was lost in thought. It was evident from the shock on her face that she was not at all planning on getting pregnant. Who would even plan for such a thing before marriage unless they were utterly foolish or had some bad intentions?Subrina looked even more upset and horrified right now. If others were to learn that Diane was pregnant, what would happen to her family image?“Mom, do you really think I’m pregnant?” Diane’s forehead was growing in stress marks. Her voice contained nervousness.Subrina just kept staring at her daughter in shock.“Why aren’t you saying anything? You’re making me nervous,” Diane said. She had a relatively decent image in society, so the fact that she got pregnant before marriage will ruin her life. “What should I do now? Should

Denver quickly took the child to the hospital, and the doctors told Denver that the kid was poisoned with a powerful toxin, for which they weren’t confident in treating the kid.Denver was sure that he breathed the toxins, but he was fine.So he told the doctor, “My blood is AB negative. Transfer my platelets and plasma to him. That should help him.”“How will that help him?” The doctor refused him without hesitation. “It won’t.”“Just do it,” Denver glared at the doctor. “If the child dies because you were late, I don’t know what I’ll do to you!”The doctor nearly shit in his pants. “I-I’ll do it!”He speedily arranged the process and transferred Denver’s plasma and platelets to the kid, and then to the doctor’s astonishment, the kid’s condition was improving fast. He opened his eyes within a few minutes.Denver told everyone to go outside and then asked the kid, “Who gave you the soft drink bottle?”“One uncle gave it to me,” the kid replied in a weak voice. “I couldn’t open it. I as

“That fucker acted like a sheep, but he’s a fucking wolf,” Subrina growled as she got up to her feet. “As soon as your dad died, he started his plan. He made your sister pregnant, and now, he’s after you.” She poked her finger into her daughter’s chest. “Don’t fall for his tricks!”“M-Mom, what the hell are you saying?” Catherine raised her voice. She was loud, so she controlled herself and opened the door.Both the mother and the daughter entered the flat. Catherine shut the door and tossed her bag aside.“Let’s assume that Diane is pregnant,” Catherine said, putting her hands on her waist. “She’s fucking Stephen, and who knows how many other men? So how the hell did you come to the conclusion that Denver is the dad?”“Because Denver is also among those men, and she gave me his name,” Subrina said calmly but firmly as if she didn’t doubt it at all. “You should know how much Diane looks down on Denver. There’s no strong reason for her to say that Denver is the dad.”“Maybe she wants t

The sun was just beginning to dip below the horizon as Denver was driving the old Volkswagen down the bustling city street.He had taken the injured kid to his home. The parents blamed Denver after he explained the incident. Denver asked for an apology and then left some money at their door without them knowing.Now, he called Sheryl’s mobile. This time, it rang, but she didn’t pick it up.Moments later, he received a text message: My mission got extended. I’ll be there soon, so please wait patiently. Love you, Boss.“What mission is it?” Denver sent a text message back.“Can’t tell you. Sorry,” she replied.“Huh, am I not your boss?”“Haha. Good try. But please don’t disturb me. I’m on a jet that’s on a ship right now. That’s all I can tell you. Bye.”“A plane on a ship?” Denver was confused. “Is she on some kind of a war ship or something? What exactly is her job?“Someone tried to poison me,” Denver sent a message.“Poisons shouldn’t work on you, so why are you worried?” she asked b

The birthday party of the six-year-old Terry Clarke was being celebrated grandly at the Stellar Convention, where they would charge anywhere from 250,000 dollars to 2 million dollars depending on the number of guests and the event.Because this was a prestigious birthday party where big guests from all around the city would be visiting, Sage Clarke paid a million dollars for the event.Bianca was waiting outside the convention, standing next to her luxury blue Audi sedan. Many guests who were arriving there couldn’t help but notice this tall woman dressed in red clothing. She looked like an angel.The women had to remind their men to not look at her. She was such a stunning beauty with her golden brown hair and a polished white look of someone who doesn’t spend much time under the sun.“He’s late,” Bianca looked at her platinum watch worth 150 grand. “He better not make a fool out of me by skipping this party. After what I’ve done for him… Mm?” Just then, she noticed an old red car in

At Golden Tower.Serena rushed over to Lily’s room and said, “The devil’s cube has been cast on Mount First.”“Ho… what do they not want us to see?” Lily wondered.“Should I go and check?” Serena asked.“Don’t go by yourself. Send someone expendable,” Lily replied.“I’ll pick someone outside our kettle then,” Serena said and quickly left.Lily was drawing a paintbrush on the wall. The image looked like a forest with a single lily flower standing out more than the other flowers and beasts.“Only the guardians are given the devil’s cubes,” Lily thought. “Are Black Dragon and Mickey having serious duels? Why now of all times? No, it doesn’t make sense. They must be fighting someone else. But who would be stupid enough to intrude Mount First, a place that’s creepy to say the least. I wonder which fool dared to go there this time.”At the same time, elsewhere in Hawk Park.Philip and Sedrick were eating breakfast by the beach. Both of them could feel the presence of the devil’s cube.“Do y

“What the heck?” Catherine was dumbfounded as she looked around.Everything was black inside the cube-like space, but there was still just enough light somehow.“It feels like we’re in another dimension,” Catherine opined. “What is this?”“You’ve got it right,” Sheryl said. “Black Dragon used a treasure to create a subspace. We’re still in our dimension, but as long as these black walls aren’t broken, everything we do here will not affect the outside world.”“So, there’s no reason for the brothers to hold back, huh…” Catherine was growing nervous.Even though she was the one who suggested the duel, she was still nervous because Mickey had this invincible aura around him.“What does this First Son actually do?” Catherine asked curiously.“From what I know, he owns many big betting companies. He also buys items for a cheaper price and sells them for a higher price,” Sheryl said.“So, he’s like a stock market trader and a fraudster?” Catherine snorted. “That’s no big deal. What was Denve

Mickey was heading back up the mountain, but then the moment his spiritual construct saw Denver, he stopped in his tracks.“What’s wrong, Lord?” Nox asked.Mickey’s blood started to stir, and all the plant life and rocks on Mount First began to tremble.Nox’s heart shook for a second as he was expecting it.Kuro, on the other hand, was over a hundred feet away, but the pressure made his knees lose strength. (What’s with this bloodlust? It’s on par with Shindo. No, maybe even more.)Black Dragon, however, continued drinking white rum rather casually as if he had an inkling of understanding about the ongoing situation.Even though Denver and others were underground, they could also feel the pressure.The earth above them got ripped off like a roof getting blown away against strong wind.“You two. Leave,” Denver told them.“How can we leave you behind?” Catherine grabbed his hand. “Let’s fight together.”“This is an order,” Denver commanded.“You think I’m your subordinate?” Catherine ba

“Go on. Take him away,” Mickey said, waving his hand. “Even injured pet dogs take time to trust humans again. You are left hurt and heartbroken by your boss, so I know that it will take time for you to trust me. I will not force you, but I will wait for you to come to me.”Sheryl wasn’t sure why he was spouting the good-guy nonsense in this situation.Was he really expecting her to believe his words?Either way, she picked up Lark whom Nox had dropped on the ground.As she took a couple of steps, Mickey said, “Tell Denver that I won’t have to do anything about Rose Park. The other rankers are not going to let it thrive. I’m not going to bother myself with him unless he overcomes the weaker ones. Only when I think he’s worthy of time, I’ll directly confront him. Until then… tell him to be careful.”A madman’s feat was never certain till he gave it, Sheryl thought. Mickey was a madman in his own right.Sheryl briefly stopped and turned back. “I know you will not like what I’m about to

“What brought you here, Madam Green Fang?” Mickey sarcastically asked.“I was selling flowers, and I thought this mountain might have some potential flower lovers,” Sheryl responded. “But all your faces scream fire that burns the flowers and everything to ashes.”“Ah, and here I thought you might have finally opened your eyes and given up on Denver,” Mickey said, “and you came to be under my wing.”“It’s common sense to only stay under the wing of someone who actually wants to protect you,” Sheryl retorted.“It’s harsh of you to say that,” Mickey maintained a calm but somewhat serious expression. “You can ask any of my workers, and they’ll tell you how wonderfully I take care of them.”“Oh, save your lies, Mickey,” Sheryl harrumphed. “You think I don’t know how you casually kill people who work for you. You treat their lives as if they’re worth nothing!”“I only am cruel to those who commit mistakes,” Mickey replied.“Even a king wouldn’t be so arrogant,” Sheryl blurted, “and you’re n

Black Dragon was fast as lightning.Lark didn’t even see Black Dragon’s movement. Even Nox was a fraction of a second late to pull Lark back.But then Mickey caught Black Dragon’s wrist and stopped his hand before it reached Lark’s neck.On top of that, the wind generated by his arm movement was also nullified by Mickey.Nevertheless, Lark’s face was filled with sweat. “I knew you were short-tempered, Easter Garden, but you’re just a bomb ready to explode whenever it wants.”“Why did you stop me?” Black Dragon looked at Mickey. “What he said makes him a traitor. And he must be killed. His head must be hanged, and everyone shall know why he died.”“He was obviously joking,” Mickey said and looked at Lark. “Weren’t you?”“...Yeah, I was,” Lark replied without blinking.“That’s not something you joke about,” Black Dragon caught Lark’s little finger and ripped it off the left hand.Lark screamed for a second, but he quickly bore the pain and made no sound.“I would have taken the entire a
CHAPTER 256
Despite appearing beautiful and peaceful, Mount First has come to be known as the impenetrable mountain after Mickey became the first ranker.Many tried their luck, but all failed, which led to the rise of a famous saying, ‘Laughing, they come; weeping, they go.’Even though there were no people guarding the mountain, nobody managed to reach the top and see Mickey’s face.Nobody could enter Mount First without Mickey’s permission.He won’t be burnt with fire or wet with water, they say.The aura around him made him an invincible figure, and his image was not much lower than the king himself.However, thanks to Sheryl’s ability, Denver and Catherine were now on Mount First, though they were underground right now.Sheryl, on the other hand, was inside a tree trunk and was carefully moving thin roots up the slope, while also looking around.Normal people might not have doubted anything, but Sheryl used her aura and was able to see most of the traps laid out there.What’s more, there were
CHAPTER 255
At the top of Mount First.In a modest mansion, Mickey was soaking dry fruits in water while Lark was getting treated in the background using an advanced healing machine.Kuro was quite surprised to see how the liquid in the machine was closing up Lark’s wounds at a visible pace. “What technology is this? It looks like nanotech, but nanotech hasn’t advanced so far, has it?”“It’s not just simple tech,” Mickey was staring at the bowl in which he had poured the dry fruits, and they were already swelling as if they had been soaking overnight.Kuro’s eyes widened very much for the third time after meeting Mickey. “Did you use your aura to speed up the soaking?”“It’s a lot more complicated than that,” Mickey drank the water and then chewed all the fruits.“Whoa, shouldn’t you throw the water away?” Kuro quickly asked.“Most of the nutrients get leaked into the water,” Black Dragon replied. “It’s better to drink water and throw away the soaked nuts than to eat soaked nuts and throw away th
CHAPTER 254
Tyron was drinking with his right-hand woman, Layla, the chubby assassin who spoke with Denver in the whispering caves the other night.She fed him grapes in between sips while both of them sat on top of a heap of corpses of those they killed.“I never explored those damn caves because of the reptilian freaks,” Tyron said. “They can easily see through our stealth. And they have technologies that boggle our minds. How is that punk Denver staying inside as if it’s nothing? Isn’t he afraid of getting caught by them?”“I didn’t come across any of those lizard-faces, Boss, but the talk with Denver failed as you predicted,” Layla said.“Haha,” Tyron laughed a little. “I was secretly hoping that he might accept an alliance. It would have made it possible for us to backstab him at a crucial time, but this is fine, too. We will wait for the right time and then strike.”Layla tore a drug packet and poured the powder on her cleavage.Tyron buried his face in her boobs and sniffed on the drug whi
