‘If they won’t recognize this card, then what will I do now?’ Seraphine added to ask herself, the worry starting to consume her.“Apologies, ma’am, but we can’t accept an unknown card,” the first guard said, handing the card back. “This hospital is strictly for high-profile patients.”The second guard nodded, agreeing with the statement. “Do you have a registered membership or a direct referral from the hospital’s board?”“N-No…” Seraphine answered, and it felt like there was a lump in her throat upon saying those words. “All I have is this card, thinking this should be enough.”She added, “According to the bank, it holds the highest privilege.”Seraphine just repeated the statement Oliver told her earlier. The tone of her voice was lower now as her confidence was gradually shattering.“I’m sorry, but without verification, we can’t allow entry,” the guard answered, his expression remaining neutral.Hearing those words, Seraphine felt her chest tighten.For a moment, she hoped to admit

“Don’t let that woman fool you!” Inna shouted to the receptionist, the anger evident on her face. “So what if her daughter had surgery at Celestial Medical Center before? Does it mean the money came from her, huh?”“The money came from all of my assets,” Seraphine answered, looking Inna in the eye. “If you want proof, then you can ask the government for my record. I’ll also give you my bank statement as well.”Seraphine was prolonging her patience for a while now, but Inna’s complaints were making it hard for her to do it.“Hah… This cunning bitch,” muttered Inna in annoyance, but enough for Seraphine and the receptionist to hear. “This is why I hate beggars, especially like you who don't know where to stand.”Hearing those words, Seraphine clenched her fists, her anger already readying to snap at any time.Fortunately, the receptionist, who doesn’t care about Inna's presence at this point, talked to Seraphine.“You should fill this document, Ma’am. This is for the admission,” the rec
Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 137: Won't Let It Slide
Seraphine suddenly felt nervous upon seeing the kind of gaze Cedric was giving to her and the red card she was holding.‘Is he also thinking the same way as the manager?’ Seraphine thought, her brows furrowing. ‘What if this really isn’t authentic? Did Oliver get tricked?’“Give me the medical documents,” Cedric said, showing his palm to the receptionist. “I want to see the records.”“Yes, Director.”As soon as the receptionist gave the medical file to Cedric, the latter quickly scanned it, flipping through the pages.“Anastasia Hunt…” Cedric muttered, his eyes darkening. “Although she received surgery three years ago, her condition is severe. Why wasn’t she transferred here sooner?”His gaze moved to Seraphine.Seraphine, on the other hand, looked away. She didn’t know how to answer that question.Or maybe she did. Seraphine just couldn’t know how to say that decision was because of financial restraints.“Director, according to that record, Anastasia Hunt received surgery at Celest

Inna’s eyes widened at the sudden change in Seraphine’s expression.‘This bitch… How dare she use that tone and look at me like that?’ Inna thought, her fists clenching while concealing her annoyance.‘Just because Director Cedric is on her side, she dares to treat me this way now?’At their first encounter, Inna thought that Seraphine was weak, especially since she had a child.But looking at her now, it seemed like a different person was in front of Inna.“H-Hey, I was just doing my job earlier. I thought that red card was fake!” Inna answered, defending herself. “Because if it was, do you think the director would be on your side?”Seraphine glanced at Cedric, then back to Inna.“Of course, he won’t,” answered Seraphine with a smirk. “But even if the card wasn’t fake at all, you’re still criticizing me. Don’t you think I won’t notice?”Inna crossed her arms and smirked. “Well… Your appearance gives me reasons to do it. Like, how could someone like you have a prestigious card like

Hearing those words, Seraphine’s eyes widened in shock.“Zerenette Lakovia? The supposed heir of Lakovia Mercenaries?” Seraphine couldn’t help but ask.“Yes.” Cedric nodded. “She was going back and forth to the hospital because of a rare disease we couldn’t decipher.”He added, “It was too bad that she experienced such a horrible thing at her age, and she died young.”Seraphine remained silent, her gaze fixated on the empty bed on their side.Suddenly, she remembered that Oliver’s last mission was to save Zerenette when unknown people kidnapped her, yet they couldn’t do it.That’s also the time when Oliver disappeared from Colossia, including his memories.“Wait… Was she taken away here?” Seraphine couldn’t help but ask, the curiosity getting through her mind.Cedric shook his head. “No one could infiltrate the VIP suites, not even people who have connections inside.”He pointed at the entrance. “That is why there’s a scanner there. Only the authorized people could go inside.”“Or if
Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 140: Earnings
“This is the first time I’ve seen a card that gives instructions like this,” the cashier admitted, the amusement evident in her tone. “Not to mention, it’s also the first time I’ve seen a red card.”To be honest, Seraphine was the same.She had only heard some things about expensive cards before, but now that she was holding one, it almost felt surreal.“T-Thank you.” Seraphine smiled as she accepted the card and placed it inside her pocket.“So… There’s no problem now, right?”“No, Ma’am.” The cashier shook her head, smiling. “Everything is fine now, and when there’s an emergency, you’ll receive a call from the director.”“Alright… Thanks.”Seraphine left the reception area after that.Tons of questions filled her mind, but at the same time, she felt relieved. Now that Anastasia is in a better hospital, she doesn’t need to worry.The doctors in Celestial Royal Hospital were more competent.Based on what Cedric told her earlier, it seems like they were doing their jobs not for money

A few seconds later, Rebecca answered.“Your investments are doing well.” She smirked. “Do you want to know how massive your earnings are per day just with this money?”Oliver raised an eyebrow. “How much?”“So far, you’ve been earning an average of $500,000 a day,” Rebecca said, the proudness evident in her tone. “Although there was a small drop in the tech stocks, the energy and commodities investments balanced it out.”She added, “Also, we got some dividends from the private equity fund, so overall, it’s good.”Rebecca scrolled through the file and analyzed the patterns. “I assume that for the next few days, the numbers will climb up,” Rebecca told him. “I will try to look for more companies where you can invest.”“Alright,” Oliver answered with a smile. “As expected, you’re a great fund manager, Rebecca.”After knowing about the red card’s existence, Oliver trusted Rebecca to be his fund manager and take care of all the investments to grow his money.Businesses aren’t exactly Ol

Upon hearing Oliver’s words, Rebecca couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “You’re impossible.”“And yet, you love working for me,” Oliver smirked.She scoffed but didn’t deny it.Who wouldn’t love working with Oliver?After all, Oliver was right. The amount of money he’ll use to buy the businesses won’t even affect his financial standing.Aside from that, she trusted that Oliver wouldn’t just buy the businesses for his gain.It may not be obvious, but it is always for the greater good every time Oliver does something.“Alright. I’ll take care of it immediately and update you about it,” Rebecca answered, her tone more determined than earlier.Oliver noticed it, making him smirk. “You’re with me on it now, huh?”“Well, I just realized this could be a good revenge for Jay.” Rebecca's lips curved into a devilish smile.She added, “That jerk. After all the kindness I showed him because of his father, he still managed to disrespect me.”Rebecca still remembers how Jay repeatedly crossed the lin

Both of them became silent for a moment, knowing that Oliver had a dark past with her.A few seconds later, Seraphine smiled, leaning her head onto Oliver’s shoulder.“Don’t worry about it. I forgive you,” she said, her tone genuine.“I even feel sorry for what you endured by her side. I’m sure it wasn’t pleasant.”“It’s not.” Oliver shook his head, remembering how horrible it was.“But all of it was in the past now. I’m not thinking about it that much,” he added.After that, he opened the car door in the passenger seat for Seraphine.But before Seraphine could enter, hurried footsteps followed them.“Oliver, wait!” rang out someone’s breathless and urgent voice behind them.It was Trisha.Upon seeing her, Oliver exhaled through his nose, already tired of whatever game Trisha was trying to play.He turned slightly, his expression hardening as Trisha caught up to them.“Relax! I just want to talk,” Trisha exclaimed, raising both hands in surrender. “I think there is just a misunderstan
Chapter 151: Persistence
Seeing that scenario, Trisha almost stumbled to the ground, feeling like the floor beneath her had crumbled.Oliver turned to her, his gaze playful but sharp. “Still think I can’t afford that bag?” he asked, his voice low yet subtly including mockery.Trisha wasn’t able to answer, and all she could do was stand there with her face pale and body trembling.The reality shattered every lie she had told herself. And the worst part?Oliver knew it.And he was enjoying every second of her downfall.As Trisha remained in her place, Oliver turned to Seraphine, his voice casual.“We’ve wasted enough time here. Let’s go,” he told Seraphine, and the latter nodded in agreement.Oliver talked to the cashier, wanting her to deliver a message.“Tell Michelle that I won’t change my clothes anymore.” His gaze moved toward Trisha. “I don’t like the idea of staying here longer.”Afterward, Oliver held Seraphine’s hand, and they were now ready to leave.But before it could happen, Trisha’s voice suddenl

The entire store fell into an eerie silence. The gasps of onlookers, the murmurs of disbelief, and even Trisha’s heartbeat seemed to freeze as they processed what they had just witnessed.Lady Michelle isn’t just an ordinary person; she is recognized internationally. Not just as a fashion designer but also as a business owner.Trisha had dreamed of being associated with someone like her—yet she was now standing in front of Oliver.And not just standing. Bowing.‘What the hell?’ Trisha raised an eyebrow, crossing her arms as she stared at Michelle intently. ‘Is she bewitched or something?’That is what Trisha wanted to believe, but she knew it wasn’t the case.Michelle’s movement isn’t just an act of respect—but deference.“Mr. Hunt,” Michelle greeted, her voice laced with admiration. “It is an honor to see you here.”Trisha and the other onlookers’ jaws fell, hearing how Michelle treated Oliver. It was as if Oliver was a VIP client himself, although Michelle was more popular than h
Chapter 149: Lady Michelle
Everyone was confused when Oliver suddenly laughed—as if he had just heard a ridiculous thing.Trisha had seen him being humiliated because he was being treated like trash.And in rage because of some circumstances he had experienced.But this was the first time she saw Oliver laughing like crazy, and for some reason, it gave her a different feeling—more anger, frustration, and rage.“What’s so funny?” Trisha asked, her brows furrowing.“You,” Oliver answered, shaking his head as he wiped a fake tear from his eye. “You’re so desperate to tear her down, but you don’t even know the full story.”Trisha narrowed her eyes. “What are you talking about?”Oliver paused for a moment, his gaze scanned the entire area before it returned to Trisha.With a mischievous smirk, he placed a hand on Seraphine’s waist, pulling her closer.“I am Seraphine’s sugar daddy.”Everyone gasped in shock upon hearing those words. They gave Oliver a look of disbelief, while Trisha blinked in surprise.However, aft

“Walking around with your expensive bags, acting all high and mighty. But after all, you’re just a gold digger!” Trisha shouted.A few customers nearby gasped, and the sales associates froze, unsure how to react.Seraphine also felt the same thing. She was shocked as she thumped rapidly, and she was momentarily frozen in place.She tried removing Trisha’s hands that were holding tightly onto her hair, but instead of loosening, the latter’s grip even tightened, her lips curving into a smirk.“No, I won’t let go,” Trisha muttered, pulling Seraphine toward her more. “Do you think you’re superior to me now just because of the sugar daddy you have? No freaking way!”“All the money I spent came from me. The Henverton family is the richest in our town,” she added to brag. “And you? Is the Carter family even rich? No. You’re leeching off to someone else—”Before Trisha could finish her sentence, Seraphine wasn’t able to control herself anymore.She shoved Trisha away with both hands, making h

Seraphine, who was busy looking at the other bags, had her brows furrowed as she looked at the woman in front.“Uh… Hi?” Seraphine greeted, the confusion evident in her tone. “Do you know me?”“Well, who won’t?” Trisha answered, her voice laced with annoyance as she crossed her arms.“You’re famous, Seraphine Carter. Your rank in the Capital increased in such a short time. You got promoted in your job, and…”She looked Seraphine from head to toe, not even hiding the fact that she was judging her.“You look like a decent woman now. Money can really do a lot of things, huh?”Hearing those words, Seraphine couldn’t help but chuckle.‘I was only here to buy a bag for myself, yet someone I don’t even know would disrespect me like this?’ Seraphine thought, her expression laced with disbelief.“Wow. I admire your courage in coming at me although we don’t personally know each other,” Seraphine said, the sarcasm evident in her tone.She added, “Who even are you?”Smirking, Trisha leaned on the

After that conversation, all of them became silent, looking forward to the next execution of their plan.Oliver, on the other hand, had his fingers brush against the necklace in his pocket.The memory of its strange glow lingered in his mind.He didn’t know why it reacted the way it did at the minefield, but one thing was sure.Something was coming, which could be beyond imagination.And this time, Oliver would be ready.***A few weeks later, the Colossia’s capital went back to normal after the situation when Zayne was arrested.The people aren’t talking too much about it as the news was already fading.Although they were still thinking about what happened to Zayne in prison, they aren’t as curious as when the news spread like wildfire.The government, on the other hand, also became stricter with their employees.“Breaking news! Six employees at the capital hall, including the deceased Francis Blake, turned out to be the former military officer Zayne Greensmith’s alliance…”“Because

The silence filled their conversation for a while before Nick spoke, realizing something.“Hmm… That’s odd,” Nick muttered, caressing his chin. “When I watch him on the television, it looks like he has a strong aura. Or was that a facade?”“It could be,” Samuel replied, acknowledging the possibility. “After all, we’re now sure that someone higher than Argus Industries was pulling the strings.”Everyone nodded in agreement, except Ray, who gave James a suspicious look.“You’re not lying to distract us from finding the real information, are you?” Ray asked, looking James in the eye.James snorted, almost chuckling in disbelief.“I’m even here, helping all of you to find more information using my skills.” He looked at the monitor.He added, “With these pieces of evidence I’m digging right now, which is already putting my life in danger, do you still think I have reason to lie?”The silence filled the conversation as no one answered James.However, all of them understood Ray’s sentiment.

Oliver froze.His heart thumped rapidly as he pulled the necklace out, its previously dull pendant now glowing, giving an extraordinary radiance.Not only that, but the heat coming from the necklace was also overwhelming, intensifying the longer he held it in his palm.“What the hell?” he muttered, his brows furrowed in confusion.Oliver had had this necklace for a long time, but it had never done something like this before.Although it was only an ordinary necklace, Oliver had kept it, feeling that it had a sentimental value he couldn’t remember.So why was it reacting like this now, at this very place?“Fuck,” Oliver muttered a curse, seeing a color yellow dust coming out of the necklace.A few seconds later, the yellow dust converted into light, making the minefield brighten—as if Heaven’s gate opened up to take him.Then, it was followed by a faint whisper behind Oliver.The voice was barely audible and was spoken in a language he couldn’t understand.“Shit. Who was that?!” Oliver
