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’
The Return of The Richard Dwayne Chapter 50: Beat Richard!
“Yes. I’m dealing with a problem. A poor man dared to lay his hands on me. Alright. I’m at Now Restaurant. Good. Thanks, Franco!”The man nodded, hands on his hips, as he ended the call. Then, he looked at Richard with sharp, arrogant eyes. It was as if he was already imagining Richard kneeling and begging for mercy later.The Franco he mentioned was none other than the person Elvan had ordered a few days ago.“Richard...” Aurora called, tugging at Richard’s sleeve.“It’s okay. Don’t be afraid.” Richard signaled Aurora not to worry. “I guarantee that the Franco he’s calling will be kneeling and begging for mercy in front of me within three seconds of seeing me.”But the man didn’t feel intimidated. Instead, he burst out laughing after hearing Richard’s big talk.He no longer cared about the pain in his wrist. He laughed and said, “Hahaha! What did you just say? When Franco arrives, he’ll kneel and beg for mercy in front of you? Who do you think you are, huh?”Dharia also looked at Ric
The Return of The Richard Dwayne Chapter 51: Who Hurt Her Will Die!
The smile on Elvan’s face suddenly froze. Even the joyful expression on the face of Aurora’s old friend also froze. Dharia’s eyes widened in shock, filled with disbelief. Everyone stared at Richard in utter astonishment, their mouths agape. The surroundings became eerily quiet and still.What exactly were they witnessing?Thud!Richard threw a punch at the man called Thirteen, who was charging at him. Just as Thirteen got close, Richard’s punch sent him flying, crashing onto the cold, hard floor.But it wasn’t over. In the blink of an eye, Richard had already advanced toward the head manager. The middle-aged man didn’t even have time to react to the sudden attack.Richard kicked the nearest wall with one foot. Using the wall’s force, he launched himself, his body soaring over a meter above the ground. Then, he raised his leg and delivered a powerful kick to the head of King MMA’s head manager.As the head manager collapsed to the floor, Richard retracted his leg. He then spun his b
The Return of The Richard Dwayne Chapter 52: The Astonishing Identity!
The sentence struck everyone’s ears like a thunderclap. Even Dharia’s heart began to beat erratically, almost unconsciously.She stared at Richard in front of her, suddenly feeling that the man had become very alien to her. Since when had he stopped being a compliant person who would just agree with everyone’s requests?Since when had he stopped being someone who wouldn’t fight back no matter how much he was insulted? Since when had he stopped being a poor person who couldn’t even afford to eat in a restaurant?“Richard,” Dharia said. “He hasn’t done anything wrong. There are limits to everything. Besides, he’s my friend. Please watch your attitude.”Dharia felt deeply uncomfortable. Especially when she saw Richard protect Aurora so fiercely and Franco show such respect to Richard. The sight was deeply disturbing to her.“Aurora, just hit him,” Richard said softly to Aurora, completely ignoring Dharia’s words.When Dharia realized Richard was ignoring her, she was instantly enraged.

Chapter 715: Two Difficult Choices!
Soon, the woman would arrive in Drakarath city! She would come to avenge Richard against the people who killed him five years ago, as well as those who were now plotting to kill him again.The Nine Families and their followers must die right now!At the same time, as all the forces chose to side with Dainrick, a decision had been made. The sky over Drakarath city would soon change.Those who thought they had climbed a sturdy tree would realize that tree, too, would eventually fall.Because no one, no one in this world, could replace Richard’s position in the hearts of the four D’Velaris Families. Even though he was just someone who once saved Richard.“Mr. Dainrick… you can’t do this to Richard… He’s the guard directly appointed by Lady Rosalinde!”Mikael’s lips trembled, pain coursing through his body. Yet, it wasn’t as painful as the ache in his heart. The pain in his heart hit him fiercely, and he couldn’t stop feeling it.The physical pain and wounds on his body were nothing compa
Chapter 714: Richard Surrounded!
“No!! Richard, don’t mind me! Leave me behind! Get away, now!” Mikael shouted.The man’s pupils shrank. He wanted to stand up, but he found himself completely drained, unable even to push Richard away.But Richard had been prepared from the start. He suddenly pulled out a pouch of powdered medicine and scattered it toward the elder.Then, their palms clashed. Richard was forced two steps back by the elder’s powerful internal energy. His face instantly turned pale.Blood gushed up his throat, but he swallowed it back forcefully. No matter what, this elder was the number one figure in the Nine Families, while Richard had yet to recover his internal strength.“Ugh!” The elder, who had inhaled Richard’s powder, suddenly coughed up black blood.When he saw the dark blood on the ground, his face turned grim. His eyes widened, locking onto Richard with a piercing glare.His trembling lips spat out a single word, “Bastard!”Richard had dared to poison him!What was even more terrifying was th
Chapter 713: The Battle Has Begun!
As soon as the call ended, a beeping sound echoed from Hallvard’s phone. The man closed his eyes briefly, then stared straight up at the sky. A slow smile formed on his face.Patiently, he waited for the family that held no feelings for him to come and take him back. Even so, his face now looked far calmer than it had just moments ago.Richard, who had already gone far, remained unaware of what Hallvard had done behind his back. After leaving Hallvard, he moved swiftly toward the headquarters of the Nine Families.At the same time, all the major forces in Drakarath city rushed to the scene. Hundreds of people gathered in the square outside the Nine Families’ headquarters.Among them, the Fisher Family had arrived first. The moment he saw Richard approaching, the head of the Fisher Family immediately stood up and walked toward him.Then, he spoke respectfully, “Lord, all the elite members of the Fisher Family are here, and the other forces have also assembled. Just one word from you, a
Chapter 712: The Great Battle is About to Begin!
Richard took Hallvard to a safe location. After making sure his friend was safe, Richard stood up, gently patted Hallvard’s shoulder, and said something to him.“I know what you’re thinking. But I think you’ll understand me. You, who are greedy and afraid of dying, don’t follow me. It’s better for you to stay here.”“The effect of this drug powder will wear off in four hours. I think four hours is enough. I don’t know how many cards the Nine Families have prepared, but I do know, today, I must go, even if I don’t want to go! If I win, then we’ll all be happy.”“If I lose, you need to leave Drakarath city immediately. Wait until my master returns. Then, help me inform them about what happened today. And also, don’t forget about my wife and child.”Then, Richard paused. He looked deeply into Hallvard’s eyes, seeing the fear and resistance in the man’s expression.Richard just chuckled lightly and left a few words before walking away.“My brother, you’re a good person...”No! Hallvard di
Chapter 711: Richard’s Departure!
At first, Richard hadn’t planned to be this ruthless. He only wanted to kill the people who had been involved in the attempt on his life five years ago.But now it seemed that the entire Nine Families must die as well! Including that person named Dainrick!That person clearly didn’t like Richard. He was the one who most wanted to see Richard dead.Although Richard felt he had never met Dainrick before, his instincts told him that Dainrick didn’t like him.Seeing Richard’s rage boiling over, Hallvard’s heart began to race. He knew that a big problem was about to start!There would only be two possible outcomes to this battle: either Richard would survive, or the Nine Families would.Then, after hearing Mikael’s tone earlier, if Richard left now, the chances of him losing were very high. Because it seemed the officials had already gotten involved.Then, those mercenaries were the soldiers under the command of the four D’Velaris Families. Or, there was one last almost impossible possibil
Chapter 710: The Cruelty of the Nine Families!
Suddenly, a sharp and piercing sound echoed next to Mikael’s ear. The man only felt a sharp pain in his back.Then, he turned around with a deathly pale face. What reflected in his eyes was the cruel and vicious face of the elder from the Nine Families.“You...?” Mikael stared at the elder, shocked.He then looked around and noticed that the mercenaries hiding were nowhere to be seen. Not a single one came to his aid! Why were they like that?After all, he was lady Rosalinde’s disciple. But why didn’t the mercenaries from the official’s side intervene?Could it be that Dainrick had instructed them not to take action? Why would Dainrick do that?Shouldn’t he be helping him, as he was Rosalinde’s disciple and had received direct orders from her to protect Richard?Oh! Mikael suddenly realized. Dainrick must have been manipulated into doing this to him, right? He had been poisoned with the idea of getting rid of Richard. Yes, it must be like that!Thud!The elder struck. In one swift mov
Chapter 709: The Betrayal!
A thought suddenly crossed his mind. Now he understood why the situation had turned out so unexpectedly. Then, he pointed at Kjell and spoke with a voice trembling with anger.“Y-You... It’s you!!! You told the Nine Families, didn’t you? You must have revealed Richard’s identity to the Nine Families!”“You’re the one who caused Richard to be pursued by assassins before even entering Drakarath city! You leaked this information. Why! Why did you do this?!”“You clearly knew the four D’Velaris Families weren’t in Drakarath city! You clearly knew the dark ambitions of the Nine Families, their obsession with the position of the guard.”“Why did you still tell those families and troops? Do you want to harm the guard directly appointed by Lady Rosalinde?!”“I’ll tell you this. When Lady Rosalinde returns, if she finds out you did this to Richard, she won’t let you off the hook!”Mikael’s body trembled violently with rage. Regarding Richard, aside from telling a few trusted people, he had onl
Chapter 708: Facing the Nine Families!
In Drakarath city right now, Richard, Mikael, and Hallvard have entered the area of Drakarath city. Since Lyonel’s wounds have not fully healed, all members of the Hellfire Group remain temporarily in the First-Level City.Once the three of them arrived in Drakarath city, the first thing Mikael did was speak to Richard.“Richard, by now, the officials must have revoked all of your status. Mr. Dainrick seems to have been deceived by the Nine Families.”“So, he’s listened to the Nine Families, and now he has certain opinions about you. I’ll go see him now. I’ll explain everything clearly to him!” Mikael said confidently.“Are you sure?” Richard asked, raising an eyebrow slightly. Then he added, “Why do I feel like this person named Dainrick isn’t deceived at all, but simply doesn’t like me? He probably already didn’t like me from the start!”Richard’s guess came from his intuition. His intuition told him that the person named Dainrick wanted him dead.Especially since his intuition had
Chapter 707: The Return of the Four Rulers!
However, just when Dainrick was certain and thought Rosalinde and the others wouldn’t return to Myrcathia country anytime soon, outside Myrcathia country, there was a figure approaching the country at the fastest speed.Rosalinde’s white gown, perfectly clean with no stains, fluttered in the wind.If someone in Drakarath city could see her expression right now, they would immediately be filled with fear, trembling uncontrollably. For this woman was surrounded by an aura of murder.And on top of that, her overflowing anger! The rage had only intensified because, up to this point, Rosalinde still hadn’t managed to acquire the main ingredient for the medicine that would heal Richard’s internal energy and memory.Then, when she discovered who had killed her disciple five years ago, her anger was beyond words.She knew the ones responsible for killing her disciple five years ago had returned. According to the information, it was the Nine Families who had done it.“The Nine Families! Well d
