2024-05-15 15:17:22“I promise to divorce you,” Richard said in a flat tone.
What?! Once again, Richard’s unexpected action left everyone stunned. That useless trash was planning to divorce Dharia? What about his own life? Could someone like him survive when let loose on the streets? Who would want to hire Richard anyway?
He’d surely starve to death!
Richard couldn’t possibly promise to kneel before Elvan. What was wrong with apologizing? His earlier actions were solely to protect his wife, as a husband, it was obviously something he should do.
Dharia’s mouth hung open, shocked by Richard’s words. Elvan was similarly taken aback. Who would have thought that the useless man would decide to divorce Dharia? Since when did this obedient man turn so stubborn?
Had he been struck by lightning?
“What? What did you just say?” Dharia asked, making sure she heard Richard correctly. There must be something wrong with her ears.
She didn’t mishear, did she?
This trash really wanted to divorce her?
How could this be?!
Did Richard really want to die to the extent of agreeing to their divorce?
“Dharia, for the past three years, I haven’t given anything to your family, but I’ve done all the housework. Have I ever complained to you? No, right?”
“Don’t just talk about me, try looking at yourself. We’ve been married for three years, but you’ve never let me touch you. Have you ever called me ‘dear’ back? Never, right?”
“I have no money, I’m poor, useless, trash, scum, bastard, so what does that mean? It means I’m not worthy of you. Even your friends said don’t settle for a useless husband like me. You’ll only suffer for the rest of your life if you stay with me. So, according to your words, let’s just get a divorce, okay?” Richard explained at length while staring at Dharia with a mysterious gaze.
He then smiled and turned his back, walking towards the door.
“If you want a divorce, go ahead! I won’t stop you. One guy from the streets is far better than you!” Dharia retorted angrily.
Richard laughed at her response. After three years of trying hard to restrain his ego, was this what he finally got from her?
Dharia, Dharia...If only she knew his true identity. She couldn’t possibly utter those harsh and inhumane words to him. On the contrary, he was sure Dharia would always praise him every day to see his good side.
It’s a pity, Richard had already decided, it would never happen.
After deliberately retiring for three years, he had decided to hand over the large company to his wife. But with one condition, Dharia must also love him back sincerely. Now, the woman’s actions clearly showed that she was not worthy of it.
Perhaps someone from the streets would be better at managing his company. The fact that she came here precisely because her company was in trouble proved it. What would happen if he handed his company over to Dharia?
Perhaps, in an instant, the company would go bankrupt.
“Stop!” Elvan exclaimed, trying to stop Richard. “Who told you to leave? You can’t leave this place!”
Richard ignored the command.
Crack!
Elvan slammed the table in front of him hard because Richard didn’t obey his command.
“If you dare to leave this place, tomorrow morning, another grave will be filled in Almolia City! Come here! Let me tell you, today you have to kneel in front of me a hundred times, call me ‘daddy’. If not, you’ll spend your whole life in jail, or in a grave!”
Richard turned back, towards Elvan, then narrowed his eyes and asked, “Isn’t your uncle the industry minister?”
Proudly, Elvan puffed out his chest, “So what? Scared? Too late! It’s your fault, being so disrespectful. Just wait for your death, don’t be surprised if you suddenly get ambushed in the middle of the road!”
Dharia’s other friends in the room trembled hearing Elvan’s words. On one hand, they were proud to have a friend like him, but on the other hand, they were also afraid of getting into trouble with him. But one thing was for sure, they all looked at Richard with disgust.
The history of that trash man was over.
Elvan would surely not let him go so easily.
“Spend my whole life in jail?” Richard chuckled at those words. He turned his back and looked for an empty sofa, then sat down on it and said, “Okay, show me, how are you going to send me to jail.”
Elvan smiled satisfactorily seeing Richard decide to stay.
Just wait, Richard, in less than ten minutes, you’ll surely be kneeling and begging for forgiveness!
Everyone smiled seeing Richard’s bold action - which they considered foolish. He had made the wrong decision. Surely, Elvan would finish him off if he stayed.
Of course, they never knew that less than ten kilometers away, Richard’s men were driving super luxury cars with license plates reading ‘0000’. They raced at full speed, ready to pick up their big boss.
In the very back, there was an off-road vehicle containing members of the Special Team.
Every pedestrian and driver was amazed to see this. Those who were guarding the roadside shops rushed out, competing to see Richard’s convoy. Even one of the company bosses who happened to be in the area was astonished.
“That’s the Hawk Rider car, each worth hundreds of billion! There are only eighteen in the world and... One, two, three... They’ve bought them all?! Crazy! How rich is their boss to be able to buy them all?!”
“How did they come to Almolia City? What’s happening here? Could it be... Captain has returned?!”
The boss’s eyes widened as he thought about it. Just imagining the figure of the Captain and all the great deeds he had done made his hair stand on end. He vividly remembered the announcement declaring the Captain missing, whereabouts unknown.
Long live the Captain!
National heroes, saviors of all!Hooray!
As the procession moved forward, no vehicle dared to obstruct it. Everyone hastily pulled over, making way for them.
Meanwhile, at the same time, Dharia’s classmates found it amusing to see Richard’s calm face. “Hey beggar, can you still pretend to be calm? You have no money, no power, you’re just a husband following your wife, even becoming the Nelsons Family’s pet dog, but you still act like you have everything? Go apologize to Winston, maybe he’ll still forgive you!”
Once again, Richard ignored the words of those people. He just kept a straight face while waiting for the arrival of what he had been anticipating. He paid no mind to what Dharia, Winston, and their friends were thinking.
Just wait, any moment now—
Crash!
The door of the room was kicked hard until it slammed onto the floor.
A group of police officers came in wearing plain clothes. They looked around and asked sternly, “Which one of you is Richard?! Are you looking for trouble? Come here!”
In that moment, everyone’s gaze shifted to Richard.
Elvan grinned satisfactorily at their arrival. He then spoke to Richard, flaunting himself, “You fool! I warned you countless times but you still didn’t believe me. Just go die!”
After saying that, Elvan glanced at the leader of the group.
The group leader nodded discreetly and then said, “Shackle him, we’re taking him home!”
Home... To heaven.
Everyone shook their heads, thinking about how Richard would soon be leaving this world.
“Do you believe it?” Richard suddenly asked. He then leaned back on the sofa, crossing his legs and arms, “If I were to appear in the government office right now, within just one hour, you’d see a lot of news about me on the internet, on TV, everywhere, causing a sensation.”
The group leader stopped and stared at Richard, “What news?”
Richard thumped his foot on the floor and stood up straight. In an instant, the weak aura of prey turned into the aura of a predator. Lightning-like flashes emanated from his eyes. His self-confidence made everyone who saw him tremble slightly.

Richard raised his index finger and pointed it at every officer present in the room. “You, you, you... All of you... Today’s your last day! The Almolia City Prison, which is 160,000 square meters in size, will be leveled to the ground!”Why?Because he had the power to do so.Because his three-year leave had ended.Because he was Richard Dwayne, the man who made the whole world submit to him!Indeed, his words were not mere boasting as everyone had assumed. He could easily dispose of them all in less than ten seconds. Flattening the city prison? That was easy for him! He had plenty of henchmen who could do it in just one day.The leader of the group fell silent for a moment, then snorted and laughed, “Hahaha! You brat! Are you that crazy out of fear of death? Leveling the prison to the ground? Hello? Do you even know who you are dealing with? A parasite in the Nelsons Family, given food to eat, and now you’re trying to act tough? Stop dreaming!”After speaking, the officers in the roo

Here!Is this....Right! These are the people who caused a stir worldwide three years ago. They are the soldiers whose power is feared by the whole world. Everyone in this country knows who they are. The same goes for people abroad.“How’s that?” Elvan asked, leaning forward, trying to get a clearer look at the business card thrown by the captain. He then intentionally made a surprised expression, though not genuinely surprised, “Wow! A world-class elite group? That’s insanely scary!”Seeing Richard’s expression unchanged, Dharia became increasingly annoyed, “You still don’t realize how ridiculous your actions are! One, you hired these people to pretend to be a world-class elite team. Two, you made fake identities to convince them. Three, you no longer respect Winston. I’m sick of you!”After speaking, Dharia took her bag from the table and stepped towards the door. It’s better to escape from this place before the situation gets more complicated. She’s afraid Richard’s foolish actions

“Because I want to step back for 3 years first, and today is the last day.”“Why do you want to step back for 3 years?” Captain asked, curious about Richard’s statement.“You’ll find out soon enough.”Richard didn’t want to talk much because he couldn’t say why he had to do it.The Captain suppressed his curiosity and said, “The ones in Ligos City already got the news, now they’re waiting for your return at headquarters. Until now, I still can’t believe I finally found you....”“I still don’t want to go home now.”Richard immediately cut off the Captain’s speech without waiting for him to finish. Richard had a habit of putting his hand in his pocket, and inside he felt a bank card.The card... was the card Richard wanted to give to Dharia at the hotel.“Eh?” all the team members were surprised to hear it and turned to Richard simultaneously. “Why? Everyone has been waiting for you to come home.”“Yes, let’s go home together!”“Country Rio Dio still needs you, and there are still many

Open up!Never before had any member of the Nelsons Family witnessed such a commotion. One by one, the Nelsons Family cautiously approached the car, staring intently at its door.“Tik Tik Tik Tik!”One person!Two person!From the Jeep Hawk Rider, 17 other men in military uniforms and long boots, along with their captain, emerged.Anastas carefully observed their attire, feeling a sense of familiarity with the logo on their shirts, as if he had seen it the year before.“Anastas, who are your friends? How come there are so many of them?”Though Anastas didn’t know who the person before him was, in his heart, he knew he couldn’t possibly know someone as impressive as them.“Hello, I’m Anastas from Almolia City...” Anastas greeted cautiously as he approached.But they paid no attention to Anastas and stood erect, forming two rows in front of the door.Immediately, the 17 men formed two rows to the left and right, standing with their chests out and heads held high.“The Nelsons Family’s h

The entire Nelsons Family stared at Richard as if he were insane.As long as he wants?Everything in this world could be his?“Pfft... hahaha!”Anastas laughed at the thought of the woman he liked marrying a poor and clueless man.Anastas flaunted his car keys in front of Richard and said, “Can you afford to buy a car worth billions? I’ve heard Aunt say you’re worthless, but turns out you’re not just poor but also full of yourself. Now the Nelsons Family is short of 4 billion. You’re rich, right? Let’s see it!”“Do you really want me to see the money?”“Go ahead! Don’t just talk! Poor people are so full of themselves!”“Hahaha, Carmen’s husband wants to help our company? Amazing. Come on, show us your card.”Whether it was Anastas or the Nelsons Family, they all spat harsh words at Richard.“Okay! See for yourselves if I can really give you 4 billion!”Richard then put his right hand into his pocket. Those who saw it almost believed instantly. However, Richard didn’t pull out anything

“This card must be fake, right? You’re not close to him, are you?”The Nelsons Family was puzzled as they looked at Anastas because he kept denying Richard’s relationship with the Captain. It seemed like he still couldn’t believe what had just happened.But Richard just smiled arrogantly as he lifted the card in his hand.“Do you think I’m not close to him? Do you think this card is fake?”“Pfft, who knows? It’s been 3 years, you didn’t even have money to buy Dharia a birthday gift, how could you possibly....” Anastas retorted while looking at the card in Richard’s hand.But the moment Anastas saw the picture on the card ... there were the initials “ML”!Monolith Bank!There was no mistake, that card was a Monolith Bank card!Only someone whose wealth could match that of the Monolith Group held a ML bank card!“Anastas. What did you say to this trash earlier? How could he have 4 billion? I really don’t know what this person does with his life! Doesn’t he feel ashamed? How dare he boas

Everyone fell silent upon hearing Richard’ words.“Are you sure you want to divorce Dharia?” Carmen asked.“I didn’t hear wrong, did I? This trash wants to divorce Dharia?” her sister chimed in. “Is it because he’s scared of Winston being angry, so he wants to run away?”Richard’s last hope for Dharia vanished when he saw the hatred on Dharia’s face.“Tomorrow I’m going to the civil registry office to arrange the divorce papers,” said Richard. “With the backing of your friend who claims to be the general manager of Diamond Group, I can get him fired with just one word from me! Don’t expect me to apologize to him!”At first, Carmen felt extremely happy that Dharia could finally escape from the useless man and now marry a wealthy man.But she was surprised when she heard Richard’ words earlier, “Hey, can you actually do that? Do you even know who the general manager of Diamond Group is? Do you know how big Diamond Group is? Look at yourself first, you poor thing! Richard, do you really n

I’ve been waiting for 3 years. I thought he was gone and wouldn’t come back, but here he is!

And they got some surprising information.“Richard is g

Richard spoke as he saw the officer preparing to leave.“If I’m not mistaken, this isn’t how the procedure for detaining a suspect is supposed to work, right?” Richard said again.“Aren’t you supposed to conduct an identity check and an investigation? Isn’t there supposed to be some instruction or approval to detain someone?”“I killed someone for a clear and logical reason! Yet, you didn’t follow any procedure and just detained me immediately!”The officer turned around, eyeing Richard with a dismissive gaze as he listened to his series of questions before letting out a mocking laugh.“Investigation? Identity check? What exactly are you planning to ask?!”“What more is there to ask from you? A lowlife like you doesn’t have an identity in this country! Besides, you’re not even protected by the law here!”“You came in here quietly! Who would guarantee your release?”“Nobody will care if you live or die! So, why should we waste time on checks and exhausting procedures?”“Since Mr. Daily
Chapter 574: Arrested!
At the wedding reception later, there would certainly be a moment when everyone would raise a glass in a toast. On that day, Richard might drink alcohol.After Dharia left the Nytheris residence, she followed the instructions of the middle-aged man and immediately went to the Valemont family home.Meanwhile, Richard had just received word that the middle-aged man had been captured. He was about to rush to the Black Emperor’s headquarters.However, it seemed he had only just descended from the second floor. He hadn’t even managed to step out of the Nytheris house yet.A few law enforcement officers from the City, wearing official uniforms, entered the house. Their firm jawlines made their faces look extremely stern.As soon as the two officers entered the house, Dailyn and Lorren immediately greeted them.“Captain, you’ve finally arrived!” Dailyn said.“Mr. Dailyn, I’ve heard about your daughter’s engagement to the leader of the Black Emperor. Congratulations, congratulations,” one of

Meanwhile, elsewhere, Dharia—hidden in her safehouse—had also clearly seen that Richard had found Aurora.She was really angry about it. Gritting her teeth, she said, “They’re together again. They’re together again now. Why on earth did those two meet and get back together?!”“On top of that, what’s even stranger is that Richard wasn’t killed by anyone from the Black Emperor. He was actually just released like that. But why? On what basis?!”Dharia’s face was hard to look at. She didn’t want to see Richard and Aurora happy, not at all. At that very moment, Dharia’s phone suddenly rang.The person calling her was a middle-aged man from the Nameless Island. The one she had met the day she arrived in Myrcathia country.As soon as Dharia answered the phone, she immediately heard the voice of the middle-aged man on the other end.However, his voice sounded very cautious and wary, as if he was secretly calling Dharia. Even from the tone of his voice, it was clear that he was panicking.“How

Richard stared at Lilithra with an utterly ridiculous expression. Then, he turned to Zohn and Viggo, his tone cold as he asked,“Mr. Zohn, Mr. Viggo, are you really saying that I wasn’t the one who invited Lady Nytheris to meet?”“Just because you think I’m nothing more than a useless man from a lower-class place, you assume that offending me doesn’t matter, right?”Exactly! That was precisely what Zohn was thinking!Even though he knew Richard had exceptional medical skills, compared to the Black Emperor, Richard was nothing.That’s why Zohn quickly chose to side with Lilithra, denying any association with Richard.On the other hand, Viggo could only press his lips together, guilt evident in his eyes as he looked at Richard. But he didn’t bother to explain himself either.See?This is what power looks like. If you have influence, authority, and money, everyone will take your side.Seeing Zohn and Viggo’s reactions, Richard suddenly chuckled and said, “Excellent! Just excellent!”“I j
Chapter 571: Changing Attitude!
There was no doubt about it. Richard’s question struck directly at Dailyn’s sore spot. Even worse, his words had already provoked Lilithra.The woman immediately jumped forward and rushed toward Richard, her voice filled with anger.“You’re talking nonsense! The one the leader of the Black Emperor likes is obviously me! Aurora just arrived in Velmora city—how could she possibly know anyone from the Black Emperor?”“Besides, she’s not even the real daughter of the Nytheris Family. To put it bluntly, she’s nothing more than my dad’s illegitimate child!”But just as Lilithra finished speaking—Slap!Richard delivered a sharp slap to her face. His gaze turned deadly in an instant, sending a shiver down Lilithra’s spine. She stood frozen in place, stunned.“If you dare insult Aurora again, I’ll strangle you to death!” Richard threatened.“You...” Lilithra, now a little calmer, shrank back slightly before saying, “But the truth is, Aurora isn’t the one the leader of the Black Emperor likes!
Chapter 570: Lilithra Nytheris!
Seeing the extraordinary scene, where people who were usually difficult to reach by the Nytheris Family, now came on their own and acted so kindly and praised them.At the same time, when Lilithra and the others felt very curious, the head of the Clifton Family and Mr. Zohn had also spotted Richard.In an instant, they were utterly shocked. Pointing at Richard, they said, “Y-You... You...”“Richard, you...”“How are you here? Weren’t you captured by the people of the Black Emperor?”“Moreover, the Elder of the Black Emperor himself intervened. You even hurt someone from the Black Emperor. How are you standing here, unharmed? This...!”This was something completely unexpected. It didn’t make sense. Because the moment Richard was taken away by the Elder of the Black Emperor, the heads of the Clifton and Zohn families had imagined that Richard would surely die.That man would never return! But now?Richard was standing here in the Nytheris Family house, in perfect condition. His body was
Chapter 569: Delivering the Gift!
Lilithra glared at Richard angrily.“Bullshit. You’re just making things up. The person who asked to meet me wasn’t you. He’s a young master from an elite family.”“Someone close to the head of the Clifton family and Mr. Zohn. They even sent a representative to bring a gift for me!” “Or maybe, with your low status, you think you can get close to the Clifton family or the Collier family?”Impossible!Richard would never be able to approach the Clifton or Collier families. Not to mention those two families, even the Nytheris family looked down on him.Aurora spontaneously stared at Richard in confusion. It was clear that she was bewildered.That day, Lorren had mentioned that the ring Lilithra was wearing was worth over two billion or two million maybe.Right now, the Nytheris family couldn’t even afford two billion. That amount alone showed how significant it was.But logically, with Richard’s current status, he shouldn’t be able to afford such an amount. However, Richard’s voice sudd
Chapter 568: Recognizing the Ring!
“Turns out, you’re just a commoner from a low-level place. Now Aurora is part of the Nytheris family, someone from Myrcathia country.”“You want to take Aurora away? What relationship do you have with Aurora? What right do you have to take her away?”Dailyn’s words could be said to offer no respect to Richard.However, he didn’t point at Richard or call the man useless trash.But Richard remained calm. His expression didn’t change at all. On the other hand, Aurora was extremely angry. Just as the woman was about to retort to Dailyn, Richard suddenly grabbed her hand and positioned himself in front of her, placing Aurora directly behind him.“I am Aurora’s fiancé, her future husband. Do you think I have the right to take her away?” Richard said suddenly.“Only six billion, right? Okay, I’ll give you the money!” he added.However, as soon as Richard said this, Lilithra’s eyes widened. She immediately laughed mockingly, showing no respect.“What did you just say? Only six billion? Do you
Chapter 567: Return the Six Billion
After thinking about it, Emiel suddenly felt a sense of relief. He let out a long sigh. But then, he hesitantly asked Dailyn again.“But, father. fDidn’t you say that the one the Black Emperor wants is Aurora? If Lilithra marries him...”“At that time, will we make the Black Emperor’s leader angry?”Dailyn snorted cynically. Then he looked at Emiel and said firmly, “Didn’t you hear what Aurora said earlier? She’s never met anyone from the Black Emperor. Besides, she just arrived in Myrcathia country. Who knows her identity? Who could recognize her?!”“It’s possible that the Black Emperor’s leader just got the name wrong. When the time comes, we’ll just say that the Nytheris Family only has one granddaughter.”“Enough, just let Lilithra marry the Black Emperor’s leader.”After Dailyn said this in a tone that left no room for objection, Emiel could no longer say anything to challenge him.Rather than refusing the Black Emperor’s leader’s proposal, it was better to remain silent and let
