Rebecca let out a deep sigh. “I just think this is suicide, Oliver.”She added, explaining her words, “You can’t get anything from it. Not brand reputation, money, or influence. Nothing.”Oliver couldn’t help but laugh a little upon hearing her sentence.“No, I’m telling you. It’s not,” Oliver answered, shaking his head although Rebecca couldn’t see him.“Financially, it could look like that. But I have a deeper reason for this acquisition, Rebecca, something that isn’t stupid,” he added, his tone now low and serious.Rebecca blinked in surprise, not expecting the sudden shift in Oliver’s tone.“That’s all I can tell you for now,” Oliver said before Rebecca could even ask a question. “But I promise, you’ll know about all of it soon.”The silence filled their conversation as Rebecca didn’t answer immediately.Her fingers tightened around the pen she hadn’t even realized she was holding, thanks to Oliver for always giving her something to think about.Finally, she exhaled slowly.

Those words piqued Oliver’s curiosity. So, with his brows furrowing, he asked, “How?”Rebecca looked at Nate, as if she was saying that it wasn’t her story to tell.Nate cleared his throat and drank his beer. Unlike what Oliver was expecting, Nate looked smug, feeling proud of what he was about to tell him.“Well, you know that as I climbed the corporate ladder at Williams Corporation, I somehow dealt with the toxic employees there,” Nate stated.Oliver nodded. “Of course. Even when we’re working at the wet market before, we experienced that,” he said.“Right.” Nate agreed. “And one time, I noticed that there were discrepancies with the company’s funds. It wasn’t matching accurately with the statements, which immediately gave me suspicions about something.”He paused, then spoke again, “Someone’s stealing the company funds. And I need to know who it was.”“So, what did you do?” Oliver asked, his interest getting bigger now.Nate didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he leaned on the cha

Just when Oliver was about to pour himself another drink, an unwelcome voice pierced through their bubble of laughter.It was Trisha, someone he didn’t expect to see at this place."Mind if I join?" Trisha's sickly sweet tone interrupted, though she didn’t wait for an answer. She sat beside Oliver, so close that their shoulders brushed. But she didn’t even move. Instead, her smile widened as this was her plan all along.To act like it was a coincidence seeing Oliver in the bar, although it was not.The sudden intrusion made Rebecca stiffen immediately. Her giggle disappeared like it had been cut by a knife. She exchanged a sharp glance with Nate, who was also silent, and the tension was evident on his shoulders.‘This isn’t good,’ Nate thought, mentally shaking his head. ‘I smell chaos.Oliver’s relaxed posture also tensed for a second, but he quickly masked it with a nonchalant sip of his beer. “What are you doing here?” Oliver asked dryly, not even glancing at her.Trisha rolled
Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 195: Take Advantage
Oliver stayed behind for a second, finishing his drink in one gulp before slowly standing up.He glanced down at Trisha, who was doing her best to maintain calm, yet her expression barely contained fury.“You should leave too, Trisha,” Oliver said, his voice cold and emotionless. “Before you embarrass yourself even more.”Without waiting for her response, he turned and followed after Nate and Rebecca, leaving Trisha to stew in the humiliation she brought upon herself.Trisha sat frozen for a moment, anger burning beneath her forced smile.However, as she spotted Oliver’s back disappearing into the crowd, panic flashed in her eyes. He’s the main reason why she was here. She can’t just let her leave!She jumped up from her seat and hurried after him."Oliver! Oliver, wait!" she called out, catching some of the customers’ attention, especially when she pushed some of them just to weave through the bar’s crowd. “Excuse me!”One of the women she pushed stumbled on the ground, and she looke

Trisha shrugged exaggeratedly.“It’s business. Everyone’s dirty if you dig deep enough,” Trisha answered, her shoulders already sluggish as she leaned on the chair.“But Denver and Jay? They’re survivors. Smart ones. They know how to cover their tracks.”Those words caught Oliver’s attention. He leaned forward, resting his elbows on the table. “And?” he asked, but based on Trisha’s expression, it seemed like she was hesitating to tell Oliver more, even despite the alcohol running through her veins.His voice dropped to a coaxing whisper, his lips almost brushing her ear, “Come on, Trisha. You can tell me more than that. It’s just us here.”With that movement, Trisha swayed slightly in her seat, giggling drunkenly.However, she was more clever and cunning, more than Oliver expected him to be.Trisha sat properly, now looking Oliver in the eye.“Maybe I could,” she teased, running a finger down his arm. “But... what's in it for me? If I tell you everything I know, what can I get in re
Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 197: Scapegoat Plan
Oliver remained on his seat, pondering.‘Pushing her harder would just make her babble nonsense,’ he thought, his brows furrowing deeply. ‘But letting her go now could mean losing the lead he needed.’And he’s not the type to let go of the opportunity, especially if it was already in front of him.He needed a plan, quickly. And he knew just how to bait her. Which is to let her want more, and he just knew what she wanted: Him.His money, to be exact.With a slow, deliberate smile, Oliver poured another drink and pushed it toward her. Although he already has an idea that Trisha was almost on the edge, he won’t stop.Because his gut was telling him that something was fishy, but he just didn’t know what exactly that was.“Alright, Trisha," Oliver said smoothly, agreeing with her condition. "You want a dance? Finish this first."If she wanted to play, he’d play.But only until she gave him everything.Trisha’s eyes gleamed with joy at the offered drink and the dance they’ll do later, as if
Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 198: Desperate Move
‘This wasn’t just about buying Denver’s company anymore,’ Oliver thought, clenching his fists. ‘It was about getting ahead of whatever scheme Denver had planned.’Moving something, pinning all the blame to someone, and their scapegoat plan… everything was connecting to something that Oliver wasn’t sure about. Not yet.And Oliver would make sure he wasn’t the scapegoat they intended to use.Not now. Not ever.With those thoughts drowning in his mind, Oliver’s eyes narrowed, the old, ruthless fire reigniting inside him.‘It was time to hunt,’ he thought, his gaze laced with determination.But before that, he still needed to make sure that Trisha would go home safe and sound.It wouldn’t be safe for her to ride a cab, so he was about to call someone trustworthy to take Trisha home, as he was already halfway to the parking lot.Suddenly, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.“O-Oliver!"

Oliver looked a bit rough around the edges.He was wearing a tank top soaked with sweat, his sunburned skin and solid muscles on display.Over his shoulders, he balanced two heavy crates filled with fish, easily over 300 pounds between them. Yet, he moved with an effortless stride.Out of nowhere, a rock flew through the air, landing right by his foot and causing him to pause.It had to be those lazy coworkers of his, who always dumped the hardest jobs on him.Before he could spot the culprit, the market boss, Anthony, roared out from across the way.“Oliver! You think I pay you to slack off during work hours?”Yep, Oliver couldn’t even deserver a minute to catch his breath. To Anthony, he was no more than a workhorse.And it wasn’t just Anthony—everyone in town saw him the same way.For two reasons: First, he was an outsider.Second, the real kicker, he’d married the town’s richest beauty, Trisha Henverton.She wasn’t from some grand family, but around here, she was still a step above

Chapter 191: Vows Of Vengeance
Oliver had booked a penthouse, not to flex his wealth, but because it was the safest, and it was also the room Ryan recommended.Still, he checked every part of that room, whether there were hidden cameras, suspicious things, or even a bomb that could kill him on the spot.“None.” Oliver sighed in relief, seeing that nothing could bring him harm.That was the moment he could finally place his luggage on the side and sit on the edge of the bed, his breath panting.There was still the adrenaline from earlier, and no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn’t get his mind off it, especially with what he shared.Suddenly, his phone rang, which snapped Oliver from his thoughts for a moment.“Ryan,” Oliver spoke upon answering the call.“One of my people informed me that you’re already at the hotel,” Ryan said on the other line, his tone ingratiating yet still authoritative. “How’s the penthouse to your liking?”“It’s great,” Oliver answered, his tone laced with sincerity. “Also safe.

His boss had his brows furrowed. “What do you mean?”“With the intensity of his kick, I almost thought that he wasn’t a human,” the man explained, his voice low.“It’s like he possesses extraordinary strength.”The silence filled the conversation as his boss didn’t answer.However, his boss clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, pondering upon something deeper, something that the man couldn’t decipher.“This is bad. He should be weaker as time went by, not stronger,” his boss said, his voice dangerously low.“What could be triggering him?”“Sir?” the man asked, not being able to follow through his boss’ mumbles.“Nothing.” His boss shook his head. “Is there anything else you noticed about him?”The man didn’t answer immediately as he caressed his chin, his eyes narrowing as he returned to the scenario earlier.“He looks younger,” the man mumbled. “Three years have passed. He should have aged as it was a long time, but he didn’t…”His voice trailed off, not because he didn’t know
