Richard put his phone back into his pocket. The man didn’t even look at the receptionist. He just stared fixedly at the elevator door.

The receptionist felt even more convinced that Richard was just pretending to call someone earlier.

With his shabby appearance, how could the man possibly know their General Manager?

“Security guard!” The receptionist called two security guards not far from him and said, “Take him out of here!”

Without saying much, the two security guards immediately walked with big steps towards Richard.

At the same time!

The door of elevator number three suddenly descended from the twenty-first floor. Richard just stood there.

The two security guards who were ordered by the receptionist earlier reached out and wanted to hold Richard’ shoulders. Meanwhile, the receptionist remained standing in her position with a disdainful expression on her face at Richard.

Right at this moment, the elevator had reached the tenth floor!

The sixth floor!

The third floor!

Just as the h

    Everyone’s gaze instantly turned to Raylon. The man had just received the documents delivered by his secretary. He then handed the documents to Richard and said, “Mr. Richard, here is the data regarding Dharia’s whereabouts on her 15th birthday.”“Additionally, there are also photos from her birthday,” Raylon added.Richard busily flipped through the pages of the documents given by Raylon. He then said, “In other words, on the 18th, Dharia was never kidnapped at all. And that means she is not the girl I’ve been looking for?”“Then why did Grandpa Nelsons say that Dharia is the one I’m searching for?” Richard asked again.“Mr. Richard, I apologize in advance. But have you ever considered this? You are so honorable. You are the heir of the Dwayne family in Ligos city. Besides that, you also control the underground forces of Rio Dio Country,” Raylon said with a serious expression.“Not to mention you have other very impressive statuses. However, just based on those two points alone, who

    Elvan, who had been waiting in the Diamond Group lobby to sign a contract with Mr. Raylon, instead encountered Richard, whom he considered a parasite.Seeing the man, he felt something was missing if he hadn’t humiliated Richard yet.“Why do you look so angry? Did you get rejected from being a security guard here?” Elvan asked sarcastically. “Besides, I was kind enough to offer you a security job at my office, but you rejected it and insisted on finding a job on your own. It turns out the office you chose is Diamond Group?!” Elvan continued, ignoring Richard’s sharp gaze.“Your attitude alone is unfit for being a security guard here. At the very least, you should have formal training for the profession! And you? Did you even graduate from junior high school?” Elvan’s condescending words continued to belittle him.“Move aside! I don’t have time to entertain you!” Richard snapped coldly. Elvan’s eyes widened when he heard the man’s words.“You’d better watch your attitude now! Do you

    “What?! What did you just say?! Canceled?! How could this happen? Didn’t Mr. Raylon agree yesterday?” Carmen was shocked. The question from the woman only worsened Elvan’s already terrible mood.“It’s all because of that damn Richard! He cursed me, causing the partnership to fall through! See? It really happened!” Elvan shouted angrily.“Damn the birthday party! You all are just bad luck!” The man did not see himself as being at fault at all. He only blamed others and shifted all the burdens onto them.He did like Dharia, but compared to money, she was meaningless to him. Elvan ended the call abruptly. Meanwhile, Carmen remained silent, staring at her phone and muttering,“Elvan and Diamond Group canceled the partnership?” she whispered.“What’s going on? The Quinlan family surely won’t invest with us. Mr. Raylon won’t come to the birthday party, right?” Carmen continued with a tone of despair. The old woman’s heart shattered into pieces upon hearing the news.“Damn Richard! The man

    “You want something? I’ll give it to you right away! One thing you should know is that I never lack female company in my life. So, you’re quite lucky because you’re one of the chosen ones!” said the man.Of course, Aurora knew that someone as wealthy as Ghalen would never run out of female company. But she had never felt she was worth being valued so cheaply!“I’m sorry, Sir. I can prove myself to them with my own abilities. So, thank you for your offer, but I’m not interested. Let’s continue our discussion about the investment,” Aurora quickly declined.Ghalen’s smile vanished from his lips. With a cold expression, he said, “Are you belittling me?”“Of course not. I know Mr. Ghalen is impressive, but I’d prefer to prove my worth through my own skills. So let’s get back to our main agenda,” Aurora replied, struggling to hide her disgust towards the man.The man’s face flushed red as if he was holding back his anger. He poured a glass of alcohol and handed it to Aurora, saying, “Sure,

    A panicked baritone voice of a man could be heard from the La Nova Club lobby. The shout was so loud that Aurora, who was on the third floor, could catch the call. Her eyes widened as she looked towards the door of the room with hope.Someone was calling her name! Or was it just her imagination?“HELP! HELP ME!” Aurora shouted as loudly as she could, her voice nearly breaking.Ghalen quickly covered her mouth and face with a shirt and slapped her cheeks with all his strength. Then he yanked Aurora’s hair, forcing her head to tilt upwards.“Cheap woman! You’d better listen to what I say! If not, I’ll finish you off right now!” Ghalen threatened.“Everyone in this club is my people! Don’t expect anyone to come to your rescue!”Aurora, who had just received two hard slaps, still felt her head spinning and empty. She could feel the man’s hands starting to restrain her and trying to forcibly remove the clothes sticking to her body.“Huhuhu… Bastard! Get your filthy hands off me!” Aurora pl

    “Huh huh huh...” Aurora clung to Richard, sobbing uncontrollably, her whole-body trembling.At this moment, Ghalen struggled to get up. He then hurried to the door, turned around, and glared fiercely at them, “You cheap woman! And you too! Damn it. If you really dare, don’t even think about escaping. I will definitely kill both of you.”“I swear, you will pay dearly for what you’ve done today!”“You’ll be finished at my hands!”After shouting these lines, Ghalen ran out immediately. He hurried down to the first-floor lounge, wincing in pain from his injured, torn wrist.Under the confused gazes of everyone who saw him, he shouted loudly in the hall, “Draxen! Come here quickly.”“Bring your men and come with me to the third floor. I want that bastard and that cheap woman dead! I want them dead!”Ghalen’s voice was so loud, and the place was so quiet due to his dramatic arrival that everyone could hear him clearly.A tattooed man stood up. He slammed his fist on the table and shouted, “

    It happened right before their eyes!Just when the iron rods were about half a meter away from him, Richard, the man they thought was scared, suddenly moved.“Bang! Bang! Bang!”The next moment, Ghalen’s men who had come to gang up on Richard were...Casually kicked by Richard two to three meters away, then they slammed into the floor and fell there.“Ah! Ah!”The dozen or so people screamed in pain.The iron rods fell to the floor, creating a deafening noise for everyone.Richard stepped on one end of a rod lying on the floor, causing it to fly into the air. Before anyone could react or process his movement, he stepped forward and reached out.He caught the rod with both hands effortlessly.Then, he stepped on Draxen’s chest and swung the rod forcefully at the man’s knee.“Ah! Ah! Ah! My leg, my leg...” The screams echoed throughout the third floor.The dozen or so people were sprawled on the floor, unable to get up.Everyone there was stunned.Aurora was just as stunned, like a fool

    “Captain Dwayne suddenly disappeared three years ago. But he came back yesterday! So? Are you scared now?”Who hasn’t heard this name if they know about the underground forces?Three years have passed. This person has been missing for three years. People were almost forgetting his existence and what he had done.The fear and awe felt by everyone when they heard that name again today were the same as before. One sentence echoed in their minds:Captain Dwayne has returned!“Ca-Captain Dwayne... Captain Dwayne has returned...”“Cap Dwayne, the one who conquered the entire underground army in Rio Dio Country three years ago, has come back. It’s over for this person. His life is finished.”Everyone shuddered at the mention of the name. One by one, they turned their heads to look at Richard with expressions of pity and sympathy.This is Captain Dwayne, the person who conquered the entire underground army in Rio Dio Country.He’s poor. Besides that, he’s just a useless poor son-in-law living

    As Alexander listened to every word Aurora spoke in defense of Richard, he became more convinced of his thoughts. No matter what it took, he had to make his granddaughter go to Myrcathia country.Therefore, he said in a tone that left no room for argument, “No, absolutely not. You have to go back to Myrcathia country with Emiel! Everyone knows that Richard can’t even protect himself. How can he protect you?”“Now he’s been fired from the central headquarters, and his citizenship has been revoked. On top of that, he’s offended Mrs. Ravenna. Do you know how many people are waiting for him to die? But you still want to take the risk of being with him!”“I will never agree to this! Aurora, please listen to Grandpa. Go to Myrcathia country, okay?”Alexander also felt tortured by the thought of sending his granddaughter away. But he was also scared. Because he understood the nature of men better than anyone.Without the support of her family, how could Aurora expect to be treated well by he

    A pair of eyes, which upon just a brief glance, could send chills of fear through anyone, moved away from the screen.Then, they looked at the woman in a white dress and the one wearing a blazer. Both of them, of course, nodded in agreement at the same time.“Yes. Is Ravenna going abroad? We didn’t say anything.”“Right, right. Ravenna is still in Myrcathia country, clearly.”“We don’t know anything. We haven’t seen anything. And we definitely haven’t said anything. You... just stay there and keep calm. You need to take good care of our beloved student, okay?”The three of them looked at Ravenna with pleading eyes, appearing genuinely sincere as they asked for her help.It couldn’t be denied anymore!This was the first time Ravenna felt what it was like to be treated differently in front of these three women. To experience what they called favoritism. It was true—only Richard was more favored, receiving more affection.“Ravenna, is our favorite student still over there?”“Hurry, let u

    Before Ravenna could respond, the woman in the blazer rolled her eyes for a moment, then fired sharp words from her mouth.“What are you doing there? Get back quickly! The higher your status, the more you should abide by the law. The law is the law, it cannot be violated.”“But I still have things to do!” Ravenna protested.The woman in black interrupted, “What things? You didn’t even ask for my permission to leave Myrcathia country. Since I hold power, I have the right to order you to return immediately!”“If not, I’ll send someone to forcefully bring you back.”Ravenna had no way out in front of these three women. They were the top figures in Drakarath city, Myrcathia country. They controlled power, wealth, and lives.The woman in black was the ruler of Myrcathia country. She ran everything—from the government, the military, to all official matters of the country, all under her control.The woman in the blazer was the head of the Ministry of Finance and Trade. She controlled the eco

    Aurora escaped. She must still be alive. If she’s alive, she’ll definitely come back. She’ll contact Richard and expose everything.No! It’s impossible!Richard would easily believe her. If that happens, what Elena Ysabel dreamed of would fade away forever.“Find her!” Elena half-shouted at Dharia, trembling with fear. “Quick, send someone to search for Aurora. Don’t let her roam free and come back here. If she comes back, she’ll definitely tell Richard everything!”“Right now, Richard believes that the woman who slept with him last night was me. If Aurora returns now, we’ll have a big problem.”Hearing that, Dharia’s face became grim. Her heart nearly exploded with anger. Aurora had been successfully controlled, but in an instant, she managed to escape. The enemy they had fought so hard to capture had flown away. Even the contact chip had slipped away from them.Dharia furrowed her brows and said to Elena, “Okay! I’ll send someone to search for Aurora. She’ll never get the chance to

    “Ravenna will announce the identity of her student at the Underwater Hotel the day after tomorrow. This announcement will be made for countries all around the world. It’s absolutely impossible to falsify it.”“By the way, what did you just say? Could it be that Richard really is Ravenna’s student, right? Hmmm...” Brandy lifted her head and swept her gaze over everyone in the room.Then, he said, “So now, do you still dare say that Richard is Ravenna’s student?”“Claims are just claims, and they can’t possibly be true! If Richard is really her student, why would Ravenna still have to announce it to the world?”“Revoking Richard’s citizenship was the best decision. It’s better to hurt his feelings than to hurt the feelings of people from that mysterious place.” Brandy continued her speech arrogantly.Everyone could only lower their heads. They were really feeling bored at that moment. But no one dared to interrupt Brandy anymore.This time... The room fell silent for a moment. Brandy se

    Moments later, Brandy stopped laughing and asked the messenger, “Quickly tell me, who was able to drive away the prime minister of Vandrelis Country and his army?! I will make him the new war god of this country!”“He must be better than Richard. Let Richard hear about this news. Don’t let him think that without him, we would lose. Hahaha... No! Our headquarters is full of great talents! There are many brave troops far better than that arrogant person!”“Let him...” Before Brandy could finish boasting, suddenly his words were cut off by the messenger.“It was Richard! Richard came and managed to drive away the enemy forces!”Hearing that, Brandy froze in place. Even the senior officials, who had been smiling with excitement, now had their faces stiffen.“What? What did you say? Who drove away the enemy’s forces?” Brandy asked again with a sharp gaze directed at the messenger.Now, all eyes were on him. He pursed his lips for a moment before uttering a sentence that could give them all

    “Y-You... Y-You...” Aurelian’s face turned pale from panic.“W-What did you do? How could a hundred soldiers die instantly when you landed? How did you do it? How is this possible?”Aurelian was suddenly terrified, staring at Richard with heightened vigilance. No one had seen it. It turned out that tiny silver needles had been embedded in the throats of the soldiers who had died.In one second, 100 needles, 100 lives lost. Such terrifying power.Richard remained in his landing position, one hand on the ground, his head lowered, and kneeling on one knee. As he lifted his head, he glared sharply at the Prime Minister of Vandrelis Country and gave him a sarcastic smile.“I told you, get your troops out of here quickly! So, what’s it going to be? Do you agree or not?!”“Prime Minister, unfortunately, there’s only one correct answer! If you answer correctly, you will be spared. But if you answer wrong, you’ll be buried here today.”Aurelian trembled violently upon hearing the ultimatum. Un

    The voice sounded calm, without a hint of panic, just as usual. But for the general, that voice brought an immense relief and a profound change in his heart.There was no one like Richard. Someone who could remain this calm in such a critical situation and successfully push back the enemy with a single strike.At the moment the sky seemed to be falling, he arrived and said, “Don’t be afraid! I’m here!”“Captain...” The general’s red eyes slowly began to close, overwhelmed by uncontrollable tears. He didn’t know what to say, so moved was he.To him, Richard was a true hero. The general didn’t want to shame Richard for the sake of his soldiers’ safety. Apparently, this thought was shared by the troops in his heart.Richard had become like a saint. Shaming him would be a grave sin compared to allowing his soldiers to die at the enemy’s hands.Okay! Okay!Realizing Richard was coming, the general raised his head high, as if preparing to make a significant decision in his life. He gripped

    “Oh… Brandy sent you here?” Richard began to speculate.But the official shook his head and replied, “No! We came here on our own initiative. We didn’t…”Seeing the senior officials humbly kneeling and bowing before him, Richard folded his arms across his chest and coldly said, “Do you think if I go there, everything will be fine between us? It doesn’t matter to me if I go. I’m curious to see what condition the headquarters is in after they drove me out, without their so-called god of war!”Hearing Richard’s words, a deep sense of guilt immediately emerged in the hearts of the officials. If it had been anyone other than Richard, they would have laughed hysterically at the headquarters’ regret over their own actions.But Richard wasn’t like that. There was a trace of pity in his heart. For them, as long as Richard was willing to see the condition at the border, there was hope he would help them.“Richard, I’ve prepared a helicopter. We can leave immediately!”Without hesitation, Richar
