Not only was the debt being collected, but the effort to recover it had to be top-notch. For Dharia, the word ‘disgusting’ best described her reaction whenever she heard the name Richard.Richard had already endured plenty of abuse and insults from his ex-wife. But what he couldn’t tolerate the most was seeing Dharia’s worsening attitude toward Aurora. For that reason alone, Richard couldn’t hold back any longer.“I don’t care what the money is for or why Zofia has to be directly involved. What’s important is that I want that money back immediately. Do you have a good method for collecting this debt?” Richard asked.He was considering this as an additional terror for Dharia and Carmen—a terror that would continue to haunt them.Time passed.Dharia and Carmen had just arrived home after being out. Before they could enter the house, they were suddenly overpowered and rendered unconscious. Their bodies were stuffed into sacks and transported in a van.When they woke up, they found themse
Richard was shocked to receive a call from Dharia. It was completely unexpected. Just the day before, Dharia had scolded and berated Richard thoroughly at the Nelsons family residence. And now, when the woman was in danger, it seemed she still had the audacity ask for help from the person she had previously disregarded.“Richard, Richard, help me! Save me!”“These people have kidnapped me and are demanding 2 billion. If I don’t pay within half an hour, they will cut off my hand...” Dharia said in a panicked tone.“Richard, I’m sure you have a way. At least, use your villa’s certificate. Please save me first. Later, when Arthur returns, I will have him double your money.”“Richard, I know there’s still something in your heart for me. You haven’t been able to forget me. That’s why you take it out on Aurora and try to do things against me.”Hearing the panic and helpless crying for help, Richard felt no stir of emotion in his heart. Unlike usual, when others suffered from being persecute
The banknotes that could have saved their lives turned into smoke and soot. Richard burned the money one by one in front of everyone’s eyes. Dharia’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Richard, what are you doing? Are you crazy? Why are you burning the money?” Dharia asked angrily. Carmen also screamed in panic, “Stop, Richard! Stop! You’re really outrageous! Instead of using that money to save us, you’re burning it. What a waste, idiot!” Hearing such insulting words, Richard stopped his actions. He turned to look at Carmen with a cold stare. Then he asked Dharia, “Save you? Do you deserve to be saved?” Before they could curse Richard, he quickly took another stack of banknotes in front of Dharia. He continued to burn the money while casually saying, “Here, not more, not less, exactly two billion. It could easily save you.” “I just need to give this money to the company you owe, and you could leave this unpleasant place quickly.” “Unfortunately…” “I’m poor, I’m trash, I’m a useless so
What kind of connections are needed? It turned out that Richard’s connection was with the head of the central business office. “Eee... I...” Raylon nervously tried to say something. Richard’s response earlier was so extraordinary that it left Raylon both shocked and nervous. He only knew that Richard was the boss of the parent company, Monolith Group. He had no idea that Richard had such powerful connections. What kind of power is that? With such power, he only needs to say one word, and any company in Rio Dio country could be easily shut down. “Mr. Richard...!” “You’re like a god!” Raylon praised. “Your contact is at the level of a minister. Wow, this time Arthur’s power will be useless.” “Mr. Richard, it’s almost too late, let’s head to Skyler Group in Almolia City.” “Okay, but I need to talk to Aurora first!” Richard said as he pushed the door open and entered the villa. At that moment, Raylon immediately said, “Sir, Aurora has already left. She’s the project manager at
“Without my approval, who has the right to seal off Diamond Group and Skyler Group?”In an instant, everyone present fell silent at the sound of that voice.Wearing a simple set of black casual clothes with his hands in his pockets, Richard entered the lobby with a serious demeanor!“Richard?”“What’s he doing here?”When everyone saw Richard, they all displayed a look of disdain. “What did you just say? Without your approval, no one has the right to seal off Skyler Group?”“A useless son-in-law like him, what’s he doing spouting nonsense here!”An S-class warrior looked at Richard arrival with a mocking gaze and laughed at him. In their eyes, Richard was a nobody.Since entering the lobby, Richard immediately scanned the surroundings, and his gaze quickly focused on a woman wearing a dress and a mask. In that instant, their eyes met, and Richard’s heart began to pound rapidly, feeling as if he was very close to the woman.“Richard, you’re not important here! You’re useless! Just leav
Note: In the previous two chapters, I mistakenly put the wrong 'city name' in the wrong place. I already edited it, and it yet to be approve by the editor. So, Don't be confused.

Thank you For Your Support, Dears.***The phone of the Neon KTV owner rang.The phone of the retail company boss also rang.Nearly a hundred phones rang at the same time, in the same place, and with the same scene unfolding. At that moment, everyone’s hearts started pounding rapidly. Their eyes were instantly filled with worry. Each of them had a bad feeling deep down. The man tried to calm himself. He kept telling himself that Richard couldn’t possibly pull this off. Richard was probably just bluffing.Unfortunately, as soon as he picked up the call, he realized how wrong he was. The voice on the other end belonged to his assistant, who sounded extremely panicked.“Sir, this is bad. It’s really bad! Our company has been acquired by T
Richard quickly turned around and looked in the direction the ring had come from. However, just as he did, the ringing phone suddenly went silent.“Was this really just a coincidence?” Richard murmured.The man glanced over to where Zofia and the others were, but he still couldn’t spot Aurora. Yet, something was very odd.The president of the Skyler Group, who had been standing in the middle just a few seconds ago, was no longer there.Suddenly, a strange thought crossed Richard’s mind, but he quickly pushed it aside.“Richard.” A soft, familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.Richard snapped out of his thoughts and walked outside while on the call. “Aurora, listen to me. I just got some news from the border area, so I need to go to Ligos city for a while. While I’m not in Almolia City, remember to take good care of yourself.”He didn’t give Aurora a chance to speak. Again and again, he gave her careful instructions with a heavy heart.“If anyone bothers you at Diamond Gro
The wicked plan of the grandmother immediately made everyone’s eyes sparkle. Was it so hard to ask someone to disguise themselves as a boy from 15 years ago?Fifteen years had passed. It was no surprise that a person’s face would change significantly over that time. Even if Aurora still remembered the boy’s face, it wouldn’t be an issue.They just needed to find a man with a good appearance. Then, they would arrange for the two to meet as if it were just a coincidence. That seemed sufficient to satisfy Aurora, who had been waiting for 15 years. “Okay. Very good. Let’s do it that way.”“Right. We need to act quickly. While that poor Richard is away from Almolia City, let’s quickly resolve the issue with Aurora before he returns. To avoid that lunatic doing things like killing and burning houses or even crazier things.”“Aurora, Aurora. Don’t blame us for being cruel to you. You’re just an illegitimate child. You shouldn’t dream too big, wanting the Nelsons Group. Besides, if you choos
