The Return of The Richard Dwayne Chapter 42: Not as Simple as People Think
As soon as she reached the door, Dharia confidently pushed it open and walked into the interview room. She thought that this session would be just a formality and that she wouldn’t fail.“Hello, Sir! I’m Dharia Nelsons!” Dharia said, extending her hand.The interviewer was a middle-aged man, around 40 years old. He wore a suit and glasses. His expression was very serious with sharp, piercing eyes.“Oh… Dharia Nelsons?!” the man said upon hearing Dharia’s voice.Dharia lifted her head and turned around. “Yes, I’m Dharia Nelsons. I’m here for the interview regarding the project manager position. I...”Before Dharia could finish her sentence, the man cut her off. “You can leave now!”Dharia was stunned. She couldn’t believe what the man had just said. She asked, “Do you mean I should leave now and that the interview is over?”The middle-aged man frowned and looked at Dharia with an ironic gaze. “Over? Who said your interview was successful? I mean, you failed the interview!”“Do you unde

“Diamond Group wants to expand into Rio Dio Country soon.”“But the market in Rio Dio Country has been monopolized by Skyler Group, which is in the top 10 largest companies in the country.”“This month, on the 15th, there will be a cooperation negotiation with the head of Skyler Group.”“Skyler Group’s profit margin is 35%, while Diamond Group’s is 15%. What can I offer here? I can make Skyler Group give up another 5% to us by the 15th.”“Please don’t doubt me, because I can do it!”At that moment, Aurora stood directly in front of the interviewer. A brief silence fell over the room. Light emanated from Aurora’s two eyes in the midst of a fairly bright room.At that moment, anyone would be captivated by the enchanting light in Aurora’s eyes, even overshadowing her own beauty.In such a situation, it seemed Aurora no longer needed Richard’s assistance. She could fight on her own for the project manager position.Soon, the middle-aged man’s expression changed drastically. He raised his

As the secretary walked towards them, Richard laughed insincerely and said, “Yes, I’m very poor, I can’t even rent a single room at the Underwater Hotel. Let’s see what your birthday will be like on the 18th!”“Aurora, let’s go!” Richard said, grabbing Aurora’s hand, while Dharia still looked at them with a disgusted expression.“You and your close friend are requested to attend the Underwater Hotel,” the secretary told Dharia.Initially, Dharia wasn’t quite sure if the Underwater Hotel was really booked for her or not. But now it seemed it was indeed for her. If not, why was she being asked to go there?“Alright, tell Mr. Raylon I will definitely come,” Dharia said with great joy and a hint of arrogance, as if she were already superior to the secretary.Dharia couldn’t wait for the 18th to arrive. She and Aurora shared the same birthday, and she would be staying at the luxurious nine-star Underwater Hotel, attended by all the top officials in Ligos city. Meanwhile, Aurora? She might
The Return of The Richard Dwayne Chapter 45: Give Her the Whole World
On the other side, Richard took Aurora out of Diamond Group and then looked for a place to eat.However, Aurora’s phone suddenly rang. It was Carmen, speaking loudly over the phone, “Aurora, do you have time? Come home for dinner.”Usually, Carmen never invites her to meals. Why the sudden invitation?Aurora knew the reason without needing to guess. She immediately declined, “No need, Aunt. If you have something to say, just say it directly. I know you hate me, so why pretend to be nice by inviting me for dinner?”Carmen was enraged. What did that child mean?Had she become bold enough to defy her now?Carmen showed her true colors, “Why are you speaking like that? You ungrateful child!”“Now that you’re a project manager at Diamond Group, the Nelsons family has a project. Hurry up and take it so we can work together.”From Carmen’s tone, it was clear this was an order, not a negotiation.Before Aurora could respond, Richard glanced at her and reminded, “Don’t forget how the Nelsons f
The Return of The Richard Dwayne Chapter 46: Aurora Is Still Waiting!
Is it worth sacrificing Aurora’s happiness and life for this bet? Carmen and the Nelsons family are utterly outrageous.They would easily offer Aurora to a man in his 50s for their own gain. If Richard loses, Aurora’s life and happiness will be destroyed. Carmen would do anything for money, even if it meant selling Aurora.“No way!”“Anyone else is fine, but not Aurora!” Richard said.It’s not that Richard doubted he could win, but he did not want to treat Aurora as a betting chip, forever.“Wow... Are you not confident you’ll win? It seems you’re lacking self-confidence!” Carmen mocked him.“You’re pathetic, you poor man!” Carmen continued, with a disgusted look towards Richard.“Aurora!”“Can’t you see she’s completely useless?! If you live with her, you’ll only live in poverty forever!”In her heart, Aurora disagreed with Carmen’s words. On the contrary, she said firmly to Richard, “I agree to bet with her!”“What did you say?” Richard was startled and looked at Aurora in surprise.
The Return of The Richard Dwayne Chapter 47: Behind the Skyler Group?
Richard had disappeared three years ago. And at that very moment, he had secretly entered the Nelsons family to marry Dharia. But just a few days ago, Richard announced his return. On the day of the announcement, there was news of a divorce within the Nelsons family.“Wait! Didn’t the Dwayne family go to Almolia city a few days ago? Were they there to pick up their young master? Isn’t that the day Dharia and her husband were getting divorced?”“Yes, that’s right! It was their divorce day!”“The chairman of the Skyler Group is very mysterious and unpredictable. Rumor has it, she’s still very young and beautiful. But none of us have ever seen her. She never cared about things outside Ligos city. But it seems she’s now involved in the Nelsons family. She even made a bet!”“There must be a reason!”“Yes, it seems so...”Everyone appeared excited, contemplating the matter.The big boss in Ligos city, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly spoke seriously. Everyone seemed to be paying close
The Return of The Richard Dwayne Chapter 48: Meet The Big Shot!
Yet the strangeness in Aurora’s gaze was so profound and intense that it could only be maintained for a second. If it weren’t for Richard’s extremely high level of vigilance, he would not have noticed that slight change in Aurora. “You don’t know her… That’s really strange,” Raylon murmured in confusion. “I thought the head of Skyler Group knew you and was aware of your identity. If not, how could she have initiated a bet like this?”“Moreover, in this bet, everyone would have assumed the Nelsons family would win,” Raylon added.Richard was also puzzled. After thinking for a while, he said, “Maybe she investigated this matter discreetly. Besides, someone from the Dwayne family came to Almolia City. That caused quite a stir in the whole city,” Richard said.Raylon nodded slowly, although no one could see him. Then his tone suddenly became much more serious.“Mr. Richard, recently our Diamond Group has been planning to go to Ligos city and expand there. And the biggest obstacle we hav
The Return of The Richard Dwayne Chapter 49: Dare You Touch!
[Ting!] [Payment Successful!] [Received payment of six million!] What?Paying a bill of six million just for a meal? And what shocked the man even more wasn’t just that.A bastard child who couldn’t even afford a breakfast before is now casually paying a bill of six million? “You—” The man looked at Aurora incredulously. “Where did you get that much money to pay? Or maybe you’ve found a rich man now? I didn’t expect this. I used to think you were a pure person. But it turns out you’re just like other materialistic women!” the man said scornfully.Undeniably, Aurora’s appearance now is much better than it was back in high school. Especially her charm and aura that made it impossible for people to ignore her.Aurora stood with her shoulders straight. The light in her eyes was a reflection of great confidence. No one knew why such a strong aura could come from an ordinary woman. But she truly had it. And it emanated from her bones! “If a woman has money, it means she’s someone’

Chapter 454: Spread Photo!
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
Chapter 453: Let Aurora Go with Her Father!
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
Chapter 452: Three Rulers!
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
Chapter 450: Aurora is Missing!
“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
Chapter 449: Various News Have Arrived!
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
Chapter 448: True Friend!
“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
Chapter 447: Richard Is Here!
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
Chapter 446: Don’t Be Afraid, I’m Behind You!
“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
