Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 104: Inside Job
“Crap,” Seraphine uttered, her hands touching the bruises on her neck, feeling the fear she had at that time.Earlier, she lied to the higher-ups when they asked for her statement.Even though she saw the robbers’ faces, if they asked why she couldn’t remember them, it would blow up something she was trying to hide.The powder on the handkerchief—it was drugs. It was the mere reason she got dizzy after consuming it.Seraphine knew how many people were waiting for her to mess up, so she could throw her from the Capital Hall.This could be the greatest opportunity for those people to fire her from Capital Hall. And that’s the last thing Seraphine wanted to happen.“Wait…” Seraphine suddenly stopped in her tracks, realizing that she overlooked a major detail. “No one saw the CCTV footage?”At that time, she was certain that Oliver already left the storage area, and it meant that the member who helped him, whoever it was, left the Capital Hall as well.‘If that’s the case… could someone

A realization hit Oliver as soon as he said those words.Those people were just lurking in the shadows, and if Seraphine remembered their faces, they would take her instantly.‘I need to warn her,’ Oliver thought, ready to leave the room.To his shock, a man went to the door, blocking it to prevent Oliver from exiting the janitorial department.“Melvin,” Oliver called, his brows furrowing. “What are you doing?”“You’re curious whether the robbers who stole the drugs that night were employees at the Capital hall, right?” he asked, his lips curving into a smirk.“What if I tell you that you’re in front of one of them now?”Oliver froze upon hearing those words. The betrayal felt like hot water upon his skin.“Yeah. You hear it right. I’m one of them,” said Melvin in a mocking tone. “But I’m not the one who hurt Seraphine. It was the other one—”Before Melvin could finish his sentence, Oliver slammed him to the door, his right hand gripping tightly onto Melvin’s neck.“You bastard!” Oliv

“It’s fine for you to beat me up like this, Oliver,” he said, smiling despite his coughing blood. “Because after all, I plan to distract you.”Hearing those words, Oliver froze, being unable to move.“What?”“You heard me right, Oliver,” Melvin smirked. “If I don’t have any plan aside from this, why do you think I’ll be here before you, blowing up my fully hidden cover?”Gritting his teeth, Oliver pulled Melvin on the collar again, looking him intently in the eye.“What the fuck are you talking about?” Oliver asked, his tone dangerously low this time, knowing that the plan could be related to Seraphine—the only witness of their crime.“I-I won’t tell you…” Melvin replied as if it was the only words he knew to say every time someone interrogated him.And no, it doesn’t matter whether he was hurt, tortured, or threatened with death. Melvin was willing to do everything for his brother, despite him turning out as someone beyond his expectations.Oliver smirked, letting go of Melvin. “Alr

As Seraphine’s grip on the gun tightened more to the point it was making her skin red, her breathing hitched, looking at Francis in disbelief.“Francis…” she called, the confusion evident in her eyes. “This isn’t real… You’re a good person.”“A good person?” Francis asked, his tone mocking. “No one’s a good person in this world, Seraphine. Not even you.” He smirked.Seraphine couldn’t believe the words he was hearing from Francis, especially the kind of demeanor he was now showing.After her conversation with Francis earlier, she realized that Francis had told her there were two robbers—when she didn’t even mention the exact count in the first place.Confronting Francis about it was hard for Seraphine, especially since Francis is the only person who treated her decently, even after they clock out at work.“I don’t know why you did it… But you still have a chance to surrender,” Seraphine said, her tone low and gentle. “I’ll come with you, I promise.”Francis didn’t answer. Instead, he

“My job was just to monitor you since you’re the only one with access to that safe,” Francis said with a smirk. “But damn, I didn’t expect you to be this fucking beautiful.” His gaze darkened as he leaned in closer. “And seeing you like this makes me want to slam myself on you.”Disgust churned in Seraphine’s stomach. She wanted to punch him hard but her body refused to move.“Damn… you,” she gritted out, forcing the words past clenched teeth.Francis chuckled, amused by her defiance. “Still feisty, huh?” His fingers dug into her chin. “Damn, baby. If you had just been a good girl, I would have defended you even though you knew who I was.”Then his smirk faded, his eyes narrowing.“But of all people… how the hell are you Oliver Hunt’s wife?”Seraphine stiffened. Her breath hitched as she met his gaze. “You… How did you know?”Francis sneered. “You didn’t even deny it.” His grip tightened. “Fuck. Fuck!”With a furious growl, he slammed his fist into the wall beside her, making her f

“At first, I thought you’re just an ordinary woman in the Capital hall, but who would have thought you’re such an important person?” Zayne smirked.Frowning, Seraphine was about to ask Zayne what he was talking about when suddenly, Francis’ words echoed in her mind.‘Could it be because of that?’ Seraphine thought, remembering Francis’ statement earlier about her being Oliver’s wife. ‘What do these people want from him?’But first, she needed to confirm something.“Are you the one who asked them to steal the drugs from the Capital Hall?” Seraphine asked, seeing that Zayne and Francis were accomplices.Although the answer was already obvious, she still wanted to confirm it.“Steal? That’s a big accusation, Miss Carter,” Zayne replied, his lips curving into a smirk. “What I asked them to do isn’t steal. I’m just taking back what’s ours.”Seraphine froze as she felt like a bucket full of ice was poured at her.All along, the enemy they were looking for a long time… was already within the

In a snap, Zayne slammed Francis to the wall.His hands went onto Francis’ neck, choking him, and causing the latter to have difficulty breathing.“She’s still the sibling of someone important to me,” Zayne muttered, his voice laced with warning. “If you lay a hand on her, I’ll fucking kill you.”Francis didn’t need to be warned twice. He nodded repeatedly as his hands went onto Zayne's, trying to remove his hand.But Zayne didn’t budge. His hands remained on choking Francis for a moment before Zayne threw him on the floor.Without saying another word, Zayne exited the area, and Francis immediately stood up and fixed himself to follow his boss.On the other hand, Seraphine had her brows furrowed upon hearing Zayne’s statement.‘Sibling? But I only have one,’ Seraphine thought, referring to Rebecca.Her eyes widened afterward, realizing that Rebecca could be the one Zayne was talking about, especially since they were from the same town.‘How did Zayne know my sister?’ asked Seraphine a
Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 111: Don't Test Me
Samuel, Nick, and Ray’s gaze moved at Oliver upon hearing James’ question.All of them shared the same agreement with James, so they were shocked to find out that Oliver would answer the opposite.Also, they remembered how Oliver decided to abort the mission after knowing that Seraphine Carter was the only person who had access to the restricted safe.Only one question was forming in their mind now. Why was Oliver protecting Seraphine?“I don’t know her that much,” Oliver answered, looking away. “She’s the first person in the managerial department to treat me properly despite my position.”“Point taken, but it wasn’t still enough to prove she’s a good person,” James smirked. “After all, one of your colleagues turned into an enemy.”He was talking about Melvin, and Oliver nodded, understanding what he wanted to say.Oliver still has some information on his sleeve—something he didn’t share fully with Legion V and James—since his intuition tells him not to do it.“Some people are shit, a

Chapter 184: Seeing An Old Friend
After a few minutes, Oliver had reached his first destination.No, it wasn’t in Denver or Jay’s house. His plans for returning to town aren't just to buy companies.He wanted to reconnect with his old acquaintances, too.“Thanks,” Oliver told the taxi driver, giving him a few bucks, before he drove away.Now, he was in front of a big house. It has a theme of black, white, and a little touch of silver.It didn’t look like the houses of rich people in town, but at the same time, it exudes elegance and power.Oliver clicked the button beside the black gate, and suddenly, the camera in the middle pointed at him, analyzing his face.“Is this Nathan Stuart’s residence?” Oliver asked on the camera, knowing that a person is looking right through it.But suddenly, a familiar voice cut through the silence.“Who are you?” a man in a baritone asked, the confusion evident in his tone.Oliver turned around, and to be honest, he didn’t need to do that.He already knew who the person talking to him w

“That son of a bitch,” Trisha grunted as she clenched her teeth, wanting to throw her phone on the ground, but decided not to do it.Her phone was expensive, and it’s not that easy for her to buy a new one.“I’m the one approaching him and begging him to come back. This isn’t something I normally do, but for him, I’m even lowering my pride,” she muttered.“Yet this is what I receive?” she added, her words laced with hurt, and her pride shattering. “Who does he think he is to treat me this way?!”In the middle of her rage, her phone vibrated.“Unknown number?” Trisha snorted, her grip on the phone tightening. She added, “Who is it this time? Could it be Oliver again?”Despite the hesitation she was feeling, Trisha answered the call, “Who’s this?”A familiar voice of a man echoed on the other line.“Ouch. You didn’t save my number?”Trisha didn’t even need to ask who it was. She immediately knew it without a doubt.“Denver,” Trisha muttered, gritting her teeth. “We already broke up, so

Trisha chuckled, but it lacked warmth. “Relax. I’m just making small talk.” She paused. “You know, we used to be together. At the dining table. In the house. Back when we didn’t have so much between us.”Hearing those words, Oliver couldn’t help but laugh sarcastically and shook his head, not taking the bait.“I’ve missed talking to you, Oliver,” she added.“You never talked to me, Trisha,” Oliver answered coldly. “Not even when I tried to reach out to you back then. But talking about it was useless now.”And to be honest, Oliver was glad that it had ended that way.Because of what happened, he was able to return to his real family, Seraphine and Anastasia.“No. It’s alright. Let’s talk about us,” Trisha spoke, her tone pretentiously begging, as she looked Oliver in the eye. “I missed you. I really do.”It was a lie, and Oliver could see right through it.Trisha was only concerned with two things in life: Herself and money. He had learned about it as soon as they divorced.“The only
Chapter 181: Regrets
As Oliver left the hospital and Seraphine returned to the elevator toward the VIP suite, little did they know that someone was watching them from afar.It was Trisha, whose eyes were filled with envy and jealousy, especially upon seeing Seraphine walk away.“Oliver is the father of her child?” she muttered, her eyes and mouth widening in disbelief. “H-How… I still can’t believe they had a daughter…”She had been following Seraphine for a while now, wanting to find any weakness she could to break Seraphine and Oliver’s relationship.Like Seraphine having another sugar daddy, which could make Oliver hate her.But she had found out about their child instead.“Shit. Shit.”The regret instantly consumed Trisha’s body as she covered her mouth, preventing her from gasping hard, as she leaned onto the wall.“If only I let Oliver have sex with me back then, and if we also had a child… He would have treated me the same way,” she muttered, clenching her fists.“I would also have his money.

The lobby was mostly empty except for a nurse seated at the front desk and a security guard sipping from a thermos in the corner.Both of them sat on one of the padded benches near the wide windows, which overlooked the hospital courtyard.Outside, the city lights twinkled faintly, and the occasional sound of traffic hummed in the background.“I thought you were going home,” Seraphine muttered, breaking the silence in between. “Are you planning to wait for Anastasia to wake up?”“No. I’ll let her rest for the meantime,” Oliver answered and looked Seraphine in the eye. “You’re the reason why I’m not going home yet, Sera.”Seraphine blinked in surprise. “Me?”“Yeah.” Oliver nodded. “I want to be with you, enjoy the silence with you. Like what we always do every time I go home.”Suddenly, both of their minds returned to the times they were together.And they were sitting with others during the silence made them feel they were back in time.It wasn’t awkward—just quiet, and full of the
Chapter 179: Family
For hours, Oliver, Seraphine, and Anastasia had a good time bonding as a familyBut mostly, it was Oliver and Seraphine talking as they spent more time getting to know each other, especially about Seraphine’s hobbies and wants.“I love watching superheroes like Sky Man, daddy,” Anastasia mumbled, giggling joyfully. “Mommy said that you’re a superhero, saving everyone’s lives while you’re away.”Oliver looked at Seraphine, his smile widening. “You said that to her?”“She asked me what your job is like,” Seraphine answered, looking away, scratching her nape. “That’s the closest description I could say.”“Well, you’re right.” Oliver nodded. Then, he leaned toward Seraphine, muttering into her ear, “But at the same time, you were wrong.”Hearing those words, Seraphine looked Oliver in the eye, her eyes narrowing.Oliver didn’t explain his sentence, she knew what he wanted to say.His work wasn’t exactly like a superhero. He’s a mercenary—Someone assigned to save or kill. Or both.Althoug

“Oliver,” Seraphine called, her brows furrowing.Hearing her mention his name made Oliver’s heart skip a bit.But then, he turned in her direction and smiled. “Why, Sera?”“Are you hiding something from me again?”That question caused Oliver’s smile to fade.‘I knew it. Seraphine had a good perception, or maybe it’s because we’ve been together for a long time,’ he thought.Oliver added, ‘It’s really hard to hide some things from her.’So, he decided to be honest with her about it.While walking toward the hallways, Oliver explained.“To be honest, I don’t know how I can explain it, or whether you’ll believe me or not,” he said in a low tone.“But the necklace I always have with me suddenly had a light on its pendant. And… poof. The light exploded.”He created a sound effect of an explosion, and his hands also re-enacted the same thing.“It didn’t hurt, but at the same time, I felt like something had changed within me,” he added. “I feel lighter and stronger in a way I can’t explain.”
Chapter 177: The Game Had Changed
“Shit, shit,” James muttered in panic, checking if the computer was still functioning or not.James opened the computer again and sighed in relief upon seeing that it still worked.“Damn, I thought I unintentionally destroyed it,” James grumbled, wiping the sweat on his forehead. “Fuck. That was close.”“Run through the entire computer and double-check whether that bastard managed to get on the security,” Oliver commanded.Then, he looked at Nick. “Help him double-check everything.”“Yes, Commander,” Nick affirmed.The silence filled their conversation as no one spoke afterward.But they could feel the tension arising in the air, especially with Oliver’s sudden shift in his expression.Sitting on the chair next to James, both of them started to check whether they had been compromised or if the enemy had managed to get through their computer or not.A few minutes later, Nick spoke, “There’s nothing. Our line is clean.”James sighed, leaning his back on the chair.“I don’t think their g

Nick stood up and entered Oliver’s room, whose door was slightly open.Knocking thrice on the door, he called, “Commander?”The silence followed as Oliver didn’t answer.It caused Nick to push the door open, his movements rushed.He saw Oliver standing in the middle of the room, unmoving.His hand was clenched around the necklace, his eyes wide, but his breathing steady.Too steady.The kind of calm that came after a rush of something overwhelming.“What was that light just now?” Nick asked, his tone half-joking but laced with genuine concern. “Was that magic or something?”Oliver didn’t reply.His gaze moved from the necklace toward Nick, staring at him for a moment.As soon as they locked eyes, Nick felt something different on his body.‘I knew that Oliver’s presence was overwhelming from the start, and it was different from us,’ Nick thought. ‘But what’s with him today?’Involuntarily, the chills sent down his spine.“I’m just joking,” Nick added, forcing a laugh. But it sounded to
