“A cheap man will only know how to give cheap gifts,” Diane snorted, flaunting her dazzling yellow dress that caught people’s attention. “Let me show you what a real gift looks like.”

She handed a gift box which was bigger than Denver’s.

Terry didn’t care about Diane’s insults toward Denver. He only cared about the gift box, so he hurriedly opened it.

However, he found a small box inside. He opened the small box, and there was a key inside.

“What’s this key for?” Terry asked her.

Diane looked at Stephen who snapped his fingers. Two workers brought a mini car into the hall.

“It can go up to 25 kilometers per hour, and it runs on battery, so you can just recharge it,” Diane said. “It cost just 20,000 dollars.”

Sage was clearly impressed by the gift. He looked at Stephen. “Did your dad send this?”

Stephen glanced at Diane. “She picked this gift.”

“Oh…” Sage’s gaze shifted to Diane. “May I know your name, Miss?”

“Diane Palmer,” she replied and shook Sage’s hand. “My father used to work in

    Diane didn’t give any extra details or explanation about what exactly led to Richard’s death, and she walked away with Stephen.Sage couldn’t help but wonder, “Is he not a trustworthy person then?” he was beginning to wonder if he shouldn’t have actively started working on Denver’s project. “Moving forward, I should be more careful with him.”“What did he do to your father?” Stephen asked Diane.“I’d rather not talk about it right now,” Diane replied.Stephen could see anger in her face. (There’s something that happened between them which I didn’t know of. No wonder she cheated on him, huh. I guess she’s not like the other bitches I hang around with. She’s smart and worth hanging around.)Diane, on the other hand, took her mobile out. She started sending text messages to her sister.“What are you doing, Catty?” Diane asked, but there was no reply. “Do you want to know what your man is doing right now? He came to a party. A rich man’s party, so why didn’t he bring you along?”Catherine

    Denver came to the side to talk with Catherine privately. “What do you mean she’s pregnant?”“It means what I said,” Catherine replied fast. “And she’s claiming that you’re the dad.”Denver felt a chill crawling throughout his body. “Whoa, whoa, that’s crazy. Did she really say that?”“My mom even came to my flat, and she fumed over the issue,” Catherine said. “If you were here at that time, she would have hit you.”Denver’s heart started racing. “C-Catherine, you don’t believe Diane’s words, do you?”“I didn’t believe her, but after seeing these pictures, I’m feeling doubtful!” Catherine didn’t hesitate to speak these words. “Instead of taking me to the party, why did you go with some other lady? And you’re even holding hands. That makes no sense to me.”“I will explain everything to you once I get home,” Denver said.“Are you the father or not?” Catherine asked bluntly.“Of course, I’m not the father,” Denver quickly responded. “I didn’t even kiss her once, so how can I be the father

    Denver wanted to ask Bianca about the governor, but he completely forgot about it after Catherine’s phone call.And the word ‘ka boom’ was also racing through his mind.He couldn’t go home to Catherine quickly because of this cryptic message.As he approached Bianca to tell her about this, she told him, “The chief guest isn’t here yet.”“The chief guest? Who?”“Governor Gerard,” Bianca smiled. Her real reason for coming here was to meet the governor.Denver had to change his plans after that. He waited for the governor to come.Sage’s grandson, Terry, on the other hand, did not care about other gifts anymore. He was busy driving the mini jeep that Diane had gifted to him.Terry drove the car everywhere, and nobody dared to complain about him, even though some people were scared for their own lives and for the kid’s life, too, as he was driving a bit recklessly.“How can Mr. Sage let his grandson drive that car?”“Yeah, he lost his son and daughter-in-law in an accident, so he should kn

    Gerard and Sage ate food together at a table, and many guests came to greet them. But none of them took much of their time. They only gave the greetings and left within a few seconds.Diane didn’t want to miss this opportunity, so she grabbed Stephen’s arm. “Let’s go and greet the governor.”“Are you crazy? That’s the governor of the state,” Stephen said. “He’s not someone a gangster like me should approach. Even my dad won’t feel easy around someone like that.”“He may be a governor, but aren’t you richer than him?” Diane said. “Money is what matters the most in this world. So, I’m sure he’ll talk with us respectfully once he knows who you are.”Stephen’s ego swelled a little, thanks to her words. And he gained the confidence to go and talk to the governor.“If we want to make an impression that will last in his mind, we can’t just go empty-handed like others,” Diane said. “Do you have anything of value?”“Why don’t we just steal one of the gifts from others? That brat didn’t even ope

    “Nighthawk?” Diane didn’t recognize that name. “What sort of family name is that? It sounds like a bird's name, doesn’t it? So stupid.”Gerard spared her a cold glance, making her shut her mouth.Diane looked at Stephen. “Why do you look like you stepped on poop?”However, Stephen was in his own world and did not hear what Diane was even saying. His mind was focused on something else right now. (Nighthawk? I feel like I heard that name before. Or is it just my imagination?)“Denver what?” Denver looked a bit confused himself. He felt like he heard the name before, and it surprised him for a second, but he didn’t remember anything in particular. “Do you know me?”“Mm?” Gerard’s expression changed.“You must have mistaken him for someone else, Governor,” Diane stepped in. “He’s just a construction worker with no background.”“Construction worker?” Gerard looked surprised now. (Is he on a mission now?) “Maybe, I really am mistaken.”Denver wanted to talk with the governor some more, but

    Denver did not expect to be hugged by her, but his body definitely reacted wildly. He forcibly pushed her away, and she couldn’t do anything against him.Diane fell back on the floor and cried, “Aw!” she bore the pain and said, “How could you do this to the woman who loved you and is about to give birth to your child?”Denver took his mobile out. “I’m calling the cops,” even though he said that, he started recording with the mobile, but he didn’t make it obvious.“Huh, sure. Go ahead and call them. They will say it’s a family matter and will tell us to deal with it ourselves,” Diane shamelessly said.“We are not family. Not anymore,” Denver retorted and walked out of the hall.Diane followed him. “No matter what you say, you are the father of my child. That won’t change.”Denver stopped and raised his hand, wanting to slap her.Diane didn’t back away. “C’mon, hit me. Do this and become a villain to the public. It will make things easy for me when the police do come here.”“Tsk, I ne

    The word ‘Bird Brain’ was clearly an insult directed toward him. Was it written by Diane or by Stephen?Either way, it didn’t matter.“You two keep doing these things, and I’ll end up putting my conscience aside one day,” Denver angrily got out of the car.Denver wanted to go home quickly, but he didn’t know how.Just then, a guy and his lover came to their car.“Hello, can I buy your car?” Denver asked.“Pfft,” the girl laughed. “Dude, did you drink too much? This is a Mercedes Coupe Light Sport worth over 70K. You think you can afford this car?” She was purposely rude because Denver wasn’t even wearing a suit.“70K.” Denver took his mobile out. “Tell me your mobile number. I’ll send the money to your account right now.”“Hahaha, now you’re taking too far, but it’s fine, I’ll play with you,” she gave her mobile number.“Is it fine for you if I send the money to her bank account?” Denver asked the guy because he was the owner of the car.“It’s fine. I trust her,” the boyfriend said.“I

    Denver arrived at Catherine’s flat but stopped outside and slowed his heartbeat down.He wanted to bring a lot of food for her, but because of Diane bothering him, he didn’t pack as many items as he wanted.Nevertheless, he hoped that Catherine would eat this food. At least some of it.Denver knocked on the door twice.“The door isn’t locked,” Catherine’s voice came from the inside.Denver pushed the door open.Catherine was sitting on the couch, with an iron rod in her hand. Her eyes were clearly cooking with anger.Denver put the food package and the car keys on the table. “W-What’s that thing for?”“Depending on your reasoning for holding that woman’s hand… I’m going to decide whether I should use this iron rod or not,” Catherine said.Denver touched the back of his head, remembering the moment her sister hit him with a table lamp. He might have survived a hit from a table lamp, but he might die from getting hit by an iron rod. The sisters really seemed alike in this regard.Denver

    Minerva’s clone grinned and thrust her hands straight into his waist, right under the rib cage from both sides.Blood leaked from both corners of Golden Falcon’s mouth.“Sorry, Papa,” she said in a sarcastic tone as Golden Falcon bled from both sides of his waist. “I need you to lose consciousness, so let me put more holes in your body, okay?”Golden Falcon didn’t move.His face was full of hurt, even more so than how much his waist hurt right now.She kept stabbing him at the same two spots, but he didn’t let go of her.He reluctantly tightened the squeeze on her body and the sheer pressure compressed her metallic body.“Papa, stop!” she cried.But he kept going against his will.In the end, he completely crushed her upper body, and her circuits got all messed up.She exploded right there and then.Golden Falcon didn’t even bother to cover himself with aura.He got blown back from the explosion.He suffered bad bruises here and there, but other than that, he was fine.Nevertheless, h

    All seven horrors that were there started attacking Denver immediately.Denver didn’t fight back but kept dodging their attacks, and it wasn’t easy at all. “I don’t want to fight you.”“Then, you just have to bend your knee,” Yellow Tiger leaped forth and attacked him, but someone dashed in and kicked right in his face from the side.He resisted it, but still got blown into the distance.Catherine gyrated on her toes before stopping and flipping her hair back elegantly. “That kick felt good. Mm?” she glanced at Borg who was looking at her. “What? You need me to kill you in the face, too?”“You are the one who has the gravitas system…” Borg smiled like a Cheshire cat. “I should thank you for coming to me.” He got up to his feet and cracked his knuckles before lunging at her.“Gravitas Punch!” She quickly threw her fist at him.“All Seal!” Borg blocked her punch with his palm and completely neutralized it, leaving her rather shell-shocked.“W-What?”“You overestimated yourself, bitch,”

    Denver blocked Borg’s fist, but he was still blown off his feet and was sent hundreds of feet back.Denver’s whole body felt numb from that punch as it wasn’t an ordinary punch.Borg’s punch was accompanied with strong magnetic force.“Most rankers below 50 would feel dizzy and fall to their knees after tasting my magnetic fist, but you’re still standing,” Borg said. “You’re definitely strong, but don’t think I can’t beat you. I will do whatever it takes to make you spit out Minerva’s location.”Just then, Yellow Tiger arrived there and happened to hear Borg’s words.“Southern Guardian,” Borg smiled. “You came at the right time.”“Which one of you has Minerva now?” Yellow Tiger asked with a serious expression as he studied both their faces.Borg pointed at Denver.“If I had her, why would I be here now?” Denver retorted. “I came here to find her.”“Ah-huh, how did you figure out that I kidnapped Minerva?” Borg asked. “Do you have any proof?”“Do you have any proof that I kidnapped her

    Yellow Tiger, together with the horrors, was searching the tower from top to bottom.He saw a couple of clones of Minerva on some floors, but the clones were destroyed because they had fought Sheryl and lost.The horrors were live-streaming to Natalia.Seeing more clones, Natalia gnashed her teeth. “Borg… this bastard… it is a grave crime to say one bad word to a council member. How dare he create a clone of the council member without permission! Whatever reasons he may have, he needs to be punished!”“I agree,” Yellow Tiger said. “I knew that he’s been doing nothing but shit in this tower, but this is shit shittier than shit.”“Yeah. He’s biting the hand that fed him!” Natalia was fuming so much Yellow Tiger could feel the heat through the screen. “I am the one who let him be the head of the High Tower. The council gave him his position, and he dares make a clone out of a council member? Who knows how many more clones he’s making in secret? He needs to be captured and submitted to th

    After standing there and doing nothing for over a minute, Catherine still couldn’t move.Alex understood what she was going through and said, “Do you want me to destroy it?”“Why would I be okay with that thing’s blood on your hands when I don’t feel like shedding its blood?” Catherine asked him back.“Then let’s leave it alone.”“But…” Catherine imagined something that shook her soul. “What if it was your kid inside, and they were getting experimented upon?”Alex frowned after hearing that. “It may be hard, but I will still kill my kid. That kid no longer can become human after his genes are altered to that point. Killing him is the best thing to do.”Catherine took a deep breath. “But we’ll still be killing an innocent kid.”“We’re just doing him a favor,” Alex stepped past her and broke the glass vessel with his machine arm and then grabbed the little creature.It opened its eyes and began to hiss and growl and cry in both animal and human tongue.“You should turn the other way,” h

His tongue was dry. He felt so thirsty.He couldn’t help but remember his past.“If you want to improve your stamina, then get your damn breathing under control,” the old man from his village said as Alex ran around the streets. “Otherwise, yo

    The fighter jet was traveling at a great speed, but it was invisible and did not make any noise.It wasn’t just due to the advanced tech it was built with, but also due to the skill system that Borg used.Thanks to him using his skills to camouflage the jet and also ensuring that it didn’t make any noise, he was supremely confident that nobody would take notice.On top of it, he was flying the jet inside layers of cloud, so there’d be no trail left whatsoever that others might see.As a result, Borg managed to fly the jet over the eastern sea.“Don’t do this to me,” Minerva cried. “I don’t want to die.”“Everyone is going to die, so don’t feel bad,” Borg said. “Once I get the opportunity, I will send your mother and your best friends to the afterlife, so you can have long conversations with them forever.”His words made Minerva cry some more. “N-No, no, I don’t want to die.”She wanted to live longer than a hundred years. She thought she was going to live comfortably, so she never im

    “She’s a clone?” Denver’s jaw dropped. “What the heck?”He looked at the spot where Borg was supposed to be in his invisible form, but Borg was already gone.“Where did he go?” He looked around but didn’t see him anywhere.“Where is Borg?!” Golden Falcon jumped and flew straight toward the top floor of the High Tower.Yellow Tiger didn’t stop him. “So it was Borg who kidnapped Minerva?”He was having mixed feelings because he fought Denver needlessly and ended up losing an arm and a leg. At least, he didn’t seem to be in physical pain. Nevertheless, he was angry.He approached Natalia. “What are you going to do now? Do you want me to find that bastard Borg? Even if he activates his invisible mode, he still can’t fully hide from my senses.”Natalia, however, was finding it hard to respond. “First of all, if this clone was created by Borg, why would it betray its own master?”Her words made everyone think.“I bet this clone is tampered with by…” Natalia’s gaze shifted toward Denver, “no

    For years, Golden Falcon has tried to contact the mother council of Hawkers and many other important figures for just one reason.This was the same reason why he had met Denver,too.It was to get his daughter to his side.In the past, he had called Elissa a zillion times to send Minerva over to him, but Elissa only responded with one answer: Make the Falcon Group a subordinate group of Hawkers.He heard this answer so many times he grew sick of it and stopped requesting her at some point.It’s been years since he even made a phone call to Elissa.He had only seen the picture of Minerva because of Denver, but he never heard her voice or how her smile looked or what kind of a person she was.So, with a heart full of great positive emotion, Golden Falcon rushed through the ranks of warriors and slaves to get to his daughter.Yellow Tiger, who had been fighting Denver, heard the commotion and abandoned the fight to quickly appear in front of Golden Falcon.“Move aside!” Golden Falcon acce
