The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 63
A few minutes earlier.Diane hid in her car as the Creamer gang members were caught and were being taken away.However, one of the police officers recognized her Corvette and told his superior, “Sir, that’s Stephen Creamer’s car.”Diane saw the officers looking at her, and she started the engine and drove backward. The police chased her on foot, so she drove away fast and ended up hitting the road’s divider. “Shit! Fuck!” She still tried to drive away hurriedly, but the police quickly surrounded her car, leaving her no choice but to squeeze the brake pedal.The officers were about to attack the windows with their batons, but seeing Diane inside, they stopped attacking.“Open the door,” one officer growled.“W-Wait,” she grew so nervous she couldn’t even open the door properly. It was as if she forgot how to open the door. Eventually, she took a deep breath and then lowered the window instead of opening the door. “What’s wrong, officers?”“What’s wrong? Why are you in this car?” the of

Diane’s mind numbed after realizing that it was Denver who had beaten Stephen in the Creamer club.Denver saw Diane and came up to her, with his hands in his pockets. “Are you wondering how I am still alive?”“W-What? No,” Diane played dumb. “Why are you in this hospital? Are you sick?”“Don’t pretend like you care for me, Diane,” Denver’s voice wasn’t cold, but it sure wasn’t warm, either. “What you did to me sure shocked me, but what you did to your sister is worse. However, you won’t be smiling for long.”“I wasn’t the one who destroyed that pool. It was Stephen,” she said. “I told him not to do it, but he did it anyway.”“You think I will believe anything that comes out of your mouth?” Denver calmly asked her back. “I’m sure you’re here because you are still trying to hook up with Stephen for whatever reason, but the longer you stay with that guy, the harder you will fall. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. I’m not saying this because I care for you, but for your dad’s sake, I’m giving y
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 65
On his way home, Denver met the governor at a restaurant.“Edward Creamer is not as big as he used to be because of his partner betraying him,” Gerard told him while munching on steak. “But he’s still feared by his peers, not because of his strength but because of his ego. Once he focuses on something, he sees it through to the end. And I’m sure his focus is on you now.”Denver, however, was looking at the steak on the plate. “Can I pack this and also order an extra plate of steak to take home?”“Of course, you can, sir,” the waitress politely said. “Do you wish me to pack any more orders?”Denver then picked a dessert and along with an ice cream.After the waitress left, he looked at the governor and smiled, “I know Edward is dangerous, but I already did something to keep him in check.”“Do you have some dirt on him?” Gerard asked. “Can I see it?”“Uh, you might lose your appetite,” Denver scratched his chin.“Oh, it’s that kind of dirt, huh,” Gerard rolled his head once. “Don’t spar
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 66
After talking with the governor, Denver personally escorted him to the car. “Please look into the dumpyard land I talked about, sir,” he reminded the governor.“Oh, I’ve already talked about it with the land management bureau, and you can consider that public land as yours,” Gerard broke the good news to him. “All you need to do is go to the register office and either lease it or register it, however you want.”“Thank you so much,” Denver went in for a hug, but the guard of the governor stopped him.“It’s fine,” Gerard stopped the guard and then shook Denver’s head. “It’s a pleasure and an honor to meet you. Though you’re so much younger than me, I wish I had your heart. I hope we meet again one day.”“I’ll be sure to meet you later,” Denver assured him.After the governor left, Denver came to his car.To his surprise, Diane was waiting for him, leaning her back against the black Mercedes as if she owned it.She showered a thin smile, but Denver didn’t reciprocate.The cool air of the
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 67
The sun was setting over the Salem city’s skyline, casting a warm glow on the buildings as Denver made his way back to Catherine’s flat.It had been a long week packed with pressures, and he was looking forward to a quiet evening with her.He imagined the two of them curled up on the small couch, watching some of her favorite shows, holding hands, maybe sharing a kiss, just enjoying each other’s company.Even though he had just spoken to Diane a few minutes back, she didn’t even cross his mind right now.If he wanted, he could have easily put Diane in jail for destroying Catherine’s pool property, especially as he had the governor’s support now.However, he spared some mercy for her and only got her fired from her job. He believed that Catherine would pay her sister back in the future.At Catherine’s apartment.Denver stopped his car outside the gate.The apartment’s guard was a female in her forties. She saw Denver and was shocked by his sheer size and looks, even though he was still
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 68
A few minutes earlier.Catherine finished cooking two items: butter chicken, and cheesecake.She then took a random romance novel titled Entwined Fingers from the shelves and opened it.She tried to read the book, but she couldn’t focus.She was eagerly waiting for Denver to come home. She wanted to call him, but she didn’t want to ruin the surprise.He made her car look new, so she wanted to cook a delicious meal for him, which was the least she could do.Even after Denver and Diane were told to marry by Richard, Catherine didn’t fully give up on him.Nevertheless, she has been mostly sad for the past two years or so.But now, love once again breathed life into every pulse in her body. The heartbeat of a thousand dreams echoed through her thoughts.As she exuberantly waited for him, there was a knock on the door.She sprang off the couch like a deer, rushed over to the door and opened it swiftly.Her eyes saw Denver and Sia’s arms wrapped together just for a fraction of a second befo
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 69
“You’re missing out, Denver. Life is too short to settle for such small, silent, and boring experiences.”These were the words that rolled out of Sia’s mouth.Denver didn’t think too much about those words, but Catherine didn’t feel the same way.Catherine felt that Sia was describing Catherine’s qualities as being small, silent, and boring.Was her chest small?Was she not talkative enough?Was her laughter not as pleasant as Sia’s?Was it boring to spend time with her?Catherine tightened the grip on the fork.Denver saw that and thought she might attack Sia at this rate.“C-Cat, you should eat,” Denver suggested in a soft tone.Catherine’s cold gaze shifted at him. “Don’t call me Cat. It reminds me of a terrible incident that happened at Sia’s home.”“Terrible incident? What’s that?” Denver quickly asked.“Sia’s family had a pet cat,” Catherine said. “When that cat was 12 years old, Sia’s family was having a big party at home. They left the cat at someone else’s home. The next morn
The Return of Don Denver CHAPTER 70
Later that same night.Edward Creamer brought his son back to the home, a big bungalow which he had taken from a reputed millionaire after he failed to pay the debt in time.There were more than a dozen gangsters guarding this whole place.Edward personally helped bring his son into the house.“Dad, my arms might be broken, but my legs are just fine,” Stephen told him. “You don’t have to act like I might fall.”Both of Stephen’s arms were tied up in thick bandages.“You’re not going to come out of the house for two months,” Edward warned him. It was more of a threat than just a warning.“What about Denver then? If I don’t go outside, how will I be able to ruin him?”“Leave him to me,” Edward assured him.After Stephen sat down on the couch, Edward went to shelves and grabbed a pair of female sandals and started slapping himself on the face.“Tsk,” Stephen could bear to watch it.Those sandals belonged to Stephen’s mother and Edward’s ex-wife. Every time Edward failed to keep his word,

CHAPTER 221
After Sheryl heard about the commotion happening at the store, she realized that Shindo wasn’t lying.Without waiting, she dashed northward as Minerva was supposed to be in that direction, but Shindo easily caught up with her and punched the air.His punch released a destructive vibrational energy that utterly broke the tree branches to smithereens.Sheryl was sent packing into the waters. Her back crashed into the seabed hundreds of feet below.“To this day, so many monsters have tried to take my life, but they all failed,” Shindo once more punched the air from high above, sending a shockwave that put a giant spiraling hole in the waters and struck Sheryl.“Whoa…” Lark, who was watching that from a distance, couldn’t help but frown. “That geezer is freaking crazy. He’s probably as strong as Penal Hall Master Drake. Will Green Fang be able to handle such a monster?”Lark noticed that Sheryl had created a wooden barrier above herself to avoid receiving a direct impact of Shindo’s attac
CHAPTER 220
Lark didn’t think Sheryl would launch an attack as she was the one who had told him to not even think about fighting.He wasn’t sure if she was just taunting or really attacking, but the moment she unleashed tree roots onto Kuro, Lark also leaped onto the ship.Half of the branches flew toward Kuro.He kicked them and cut them all, albeit with effort. The pressure he put in his feet made the bull-head under him crack.The other branches attacked the rest of the people on the ship, while also trying to catch the little children.Shindo acted and struck the tree branches with coins he had taken out of his pocket. The coins destroyed the branches to bits, and he managed to stop all the branches.“Tsk,” Sheryl appeared annoyed. (As expected, he’s hard to fool.)“You pretended to attack Waka-sama, and tried to take the kids away from us,” Shino’s gaze turned hellish hot.But then the wooden footing underneath their feet came off and snatched all the children and brought them over to her wh
CHAPTER 219
“Let's just beat everyone and steal all the valuables they got,” Lark was laughing with excitement, cracking his knuckles and ready to fight.Sheryl was also planning to fight, but only after getting closer, she noticed the old man standing behind Kuro Yama.“Give up on the idea of fighting,” Sheryl uttered.“Huh? What’s the big deal?” Lark frowned in annoyance. “Why did you suddenly change your mind?”“Don’t you see that red-eyed monster?”“Red-eyed?” Lark looked toward the ship and noticed the burnt-marked old man. “Who is he?”“The strongest man of Japan,” Sheryl said.Lark’s eyes widened. “Killer King Shindo…” Lark had heard about him before. “The Shadow of the Yakuza Boss. Why is he on this ship now?”The identity of Shindo was enough to make Lark loosen his fists.Kuro stood on the bull-head of the ship, smiling sharply at Sheryl. “I have seen many foreign beauties, but your class is magnetic on another level.”Sheryl, while chewing bubble gum, stared down at Kuro. “Save your en
CHAPTER 218
At two o'clock in the night.Sheryl was at the top of the Rose Tower she had recently built, looking around for any disturbance.“Natalia must be itching to destroy us,” she thought, remembering the first time she met the old woman in the Nameless Zone.Natalia was old at the time, but she lifted a car with one finger and picked up her cat that was hiding under the car. She had searched the entire Hawk Park for her cat back then.“I wasn’t strong enough to fight that old monstrosity and win in the past, but now, things changed,” Sheryl clenched her fists. “I will pay her back for all the trouble you’ve given me and my boss over the years.”“I must say…” Lark smiled as he entered the rooftop,” this tower is pretty neat and beautiful with all the flowers for view and fragrance. “And… damn… what a view!” He reached the edge of the rooftop and stood next to her, looking down at the shore from an elevated position with flowers mildly glowing at the shore. “The ocean with the stars and all…

The waves at the shore calmed down, and some of the fishermen took the boats to the sea.Minerva was forced to sit on the wooden bench on that chilling night. She was shivering from the cold.She demanded Lark to let her go, but Lark told her she could leave through the sea route if she so badly wanted to go back home.“You…” Minerva looked at Alex. “One-armed guy. Release me, and I’ll make you rich. I’ll give you a million dollars. Even more if you beat the shit out of Lark.”“I’m afraid I’m not strong enough to beat him,” Alex replied.“You still haven’t answered my question, Madam Minerva,” Lark said. “Did any man ever buy you flowers?”“I don’t have time for dating. I barely left Hawk Park before. And I’m satisfied with my current life,” she said.“You’re already in your thirties, so when are you going to get married? Clearly, your mom doesn’t seem to care about you, or maybe she’s purposely making sure that you’d never get married.”“Stop spouting bullshit,” Minerva growled. “My
CHAPTER 216
“Minerva is here?” Sheryl slightly frowned as she heard that name come out of the mouth of one of Lark’s subordinates. “She’s one extremely arrogant bitch who preaches about peace while stabbing her chef for not cooking the meal fitting her mood.”“Should I send her back then?”“No, she’s the daughter of Golden Falcon,” Sheryl said. “I should talk to her to see if she changed her mind on going back to her dad or not.”In the past, Denver persuaded Minerva to go to her father who was the head of the Falcon Group, but Minerva didn’t listen to him.Because Denver lost his memories, Sheryl thought she should do the job in Denver’s stead.A few minutes later.Lark and Alex personally escorted Minerva to the eastern port.Seeing the newly built port and the boats and ships, Minerva was wide-eyed. “What the hell is all this? Are you guys starting a sea trade?”Natalia, who was watching it through a secret camera in her earring, was even more shocked and angered. “So they’ve already started t
CHAPTER 215
On the same night.The council of mothers were furious that they didn’t receive any response from Don Denver.“Are you sure that the message has been delivered?” Natalia ground her teeth and glared at her subordinate.“Yes, President.”“We can’t just act in haste because they didn’t respond,” Natalia couldn’t hide the anger in her face. “What this brat is doing is abominable, but we need to make sure that he really is defying the king’s rule. Send the peacemakers.”“O-Okay,” the subordinate was terrified because she hadn’t seen Natalia so angry before.At the western border of the Nameless Zone.Alex and Lark were sitting on top of a tall, thick wooden wall that blocked entry from the land from three directions.Alex was staring at the beer in the glass but wasn’t drinking it.“What’s bothering your mind so much?” Lark asked, relaxed sitting back in the chair and enjoying the cool breeze of the night.“Nothing. It’s been years since I drank alcohol,” Alex replied.“It’s not alcohol. J
CHAPTER 214
The next day.Sheryl was at the eastern sea shore, creating wooden boats and ships with her ability.All the locals were pretty impressed and overjoyed by her skill. All the old ships were in ruins, so they had no means to go to the sea.But now, Sheryl resolved that issue within an hour.She created over 100 vessels which would allow them to roam the seas.As Sheryl was installing some seeds into the wooden ships, Alex came to her. “What are those for?”“These seeds repel the sea monsters,” Sheryl said, “as they belong to a poisonous aquatic plant.”“There are monsters in the sea? You mean, regular monsters or abnormal ones like in the caves?” Alex quickly asked.“Oh, what you’ve seen in the caves is little,” Sheryl smirked. “The serpent lord was originally a sea monster which later settled in this region.”Alex’s eyes widened. “So it was fighting on the ground where it was weakest?”“Mm, in the sea, it would be harder to fight it I suppose,” Sheryl did not have much experience fight
CHAPTER 213
At Golden Tower.Serena Nighthawk was listening to different sounds and was trying to create a new sound using different instruments, both normal and digital.Some of the sounds she made vibrated the glass and made metal bend. Even the rocks in her room were turning softer and bounced on the floor like rubber.“This isn’t good enough,” Serena had a frown going on her face. “There are weapons that can stop people’s hearts from a long distance without those people even being aware of it.“If I can create such a weapon that can be used on a large-scale with a hundred percent precision, then we will be able to finish our missions at a much faster rate.”Just then, Lily entered her chamber.“Are you working on ‘counter frequency’ again?” Lily asked. “You should take some more rest. You may feel fine now, but after a few days, the negative effects will surface.”“The return of Denver shows that we don’t have much time,” Serena said. “How can I sleep overtime in these critical times? If I ca
