2024-05-15 15:17:22“I promise to divorce you,” Richard said in a flat tone.
What?! Once again, Richard’s unexpected action left everyone stunned. That useless trash was planning to divorce Dharia? What about his own life? Could someone like him survive when let loose on the streets? Who would want to hire Richard anyway?
He’d surely starve to death!
Richard couldn’t possibly promise to kneel before Elvan. What was wrong with apologizing? His earlier actions were solely to protect his wife, as a husband, it was obviously something he should do.
Dharia’s mouth hung open, shocked by Richard’s words. Elvan was similarly taken aback. Who would have thought that the useless man would decide to divorce Dharia? Since when did this obedient man turn so stubborn?
Had he been struck by lightning?
“What? What did you just say?” Dharia asked, making sure she heard Richard correctly. There must be something wrong with her ears.
She didn’t mishear, did she?
This trash really wanted to divorce her?
How could this be?!
Did Richard really want to die to the extent of agreeing to their divorce?
“Dharia, for the past three years, I haven’t given anything to your family, but I’ve done all the housework. Have I ever complained to you? No, right?”
“Don’t just talk about me, try looking at yourself. We’ve been married for three years, but you’ve never let me touch you. Have you ever called me ‘dear’ back? Never, right?”
“I have no money, I’m poor, useless, trash, scum, bastard, so what does that mean? It means I’m not worthy of you. Even your friends said don’t settle for a useless husband like me. You’ll only suffer for the rest of your life if you stay with me. So, according to your words, let’s just get a divorce, okay?” Richard explained at length while staring at Dharia with a mysterious gaze.
He then smiled and turned his back, walking towards the door.
“If you want a divorce, go ahead! I won’t stop you. One guy from the streets is far better than you!” Dharia retorted angrily.
Richard laughed at her response. After three years of trying hard to restrain his ego, was this what he finally got from her?
Dharia, Dharia...If only she knew his true identity. She couldn’t possibly utter those harsh and inhumane words to him. On the contrary, he was sure Dharia would always praise him every day to see his good side.
It’s a pity, Richard had already decided, it would never happen.
After deliberately retiring for three years, he had decided to hand over the large company to his wife. But with one condition, Dharia must also love him back sincerely. Now, the woman’s actions clearly showed that she was not worthy of it.
Perhaps someone from the streets would be better at managing his company. The fact that she came here precisely because her company was in trouble proved it. What would happen if he handed his company over to Dharia?
Perhaps, in an instant, the company would go bankrupt.
“Stop!” Elvan exclaimed, trying to stop Richard. “Who told you to leave? You can’t leave this place!”
Richard ignored the command.
Crack!
Elvan slammed the table in front of him hard because Richard didn’t obey his command.
“If you dare to leave this place, tomorrow morning, another grave will be filled in Almolia City! Come here! Let me tell you, today you have to kneel in front of me a hundred times, call me ‘daddy’. If not, you’ll spend your whole life in jail, or in a grave!”
Richard turned back, towards Elvan, then narrowed his eyes and asked, “Isn’t your uncle the industry minister?”
Proudly, Elvan puffed out his chest, “So what? Scared? Too late! It’s your fault, being so disrespectful. Just wait for your death, don’t be surprised if you suddenly get ambushed in the middle of the road!”
Dharia’s other friends in the room trembled hearing Elvan’s words. On one hand, they were proud to have a friend like him, but on the other hand, they were also afraid of getting into trouble with him. But one thing was for sure, they all looked at Richard with disgust.
The history of that trash man was over.
Elvan would surely not let him go so easily.
“Spend my whole life in jail?” Richard chuckled at those words. He turned his back and looked for an empty sofa, then sat down on it and said, “Okay, show me, how are you going to send me to jail.”
Elvan smiled satisfactorily seeing Richard decide to stay.
Just wait, Richard, in less than ten minutes, you’ll surely be kneeling and begging for forgiveness!
Everyone smiled seeing Richard’s bold action - which they considered foolish. He had made the wrong decision. Surely, Elvan would finish him off if he stayed.
Of course, they never knew that less than ten kilometers away, Richard’s men were driving super luxury cars with license plates reading ‘0000’. They raced at full speed, ready to pick up their big boss.
In the very back, there was an off-road vehicle containing members of the Special Team.
Every pedestrian and driver was amazed to see this. Those who were guarding the roadside shops rushed out, competing to see Richard’s convoy. Even one of the company bosses who happened to be in the area was astonished.
“That’s the Hawk Rider car, each worth hundreds of billion! There are only eighteen in the world and... One, two, three... They’ve bought them all?! Crazy! How rich is their boss to be able to buy them all?!”
“How did they come to Almolia City? What’s happening here? Could it be... Captain has returned?!”
The boss’s eyes widened as he thought about it. Just imagining the figure of the Captain and all the great deeds he had done made his hair stand on end. He vividly remembered the announcement declaring the Captain missing, whereabouts unknown.
Long live the Captain!
National heroes, saviors of all!Hooray!
As the procession moved forward, no vehicle dared to obstruct it. Everyone hastily pulled over, making way for them.
Meanwhile, at the same time, Dharia’s classmates found it amusing to see Richard’s calm face. “Hey beggar, can you still pretend to be calm? You have no money, no power, you’re just a husband following your wife, even becoming the Nelsons Family’s pet dog, but you still act like you have everything? Go apologize to Winston, maybe he’ll still forgive you!”
Once again, Richard ignored the words of those people. He just kept a straight face while waiting for the arrival of what he had been anticipating. He paid no mind to what Dharia, Winston, and their friends were thinking.
Just wait, any moment now—
Crash!
The door of the room was kicked hard until it slammed onto the floor.
A group of police officers came in wearing plain clothes. They looked around and asked sternly, “Which one of you is Richard?! Are you looking for trouble? Come here!”
In that moment, everyone’s gaze shifted to Richard.
Elvan grinned satisfactorily at their arrival. He then spoke to Richard, flaunting himself, “You fool! I warned you countless times but you still didn’t believe me. Just go die!”
After saying that, Elvan glanced at the leader of the group.
The group leader nodded discreetly and then said, “Shackle him, we’re taking him home!”
Home... To heaven.
Everyone shook their heads, thinking about how Richard would soon be leaving this world.
“Do you believe it?” Richard suddenly asked. He then leaned back on the sofa, crossing his legs and arms, “If I were to appear in the government office right now, within just one hour, you’d see a lot of news about me on the internet, on TV, everywhere, causing a sensation.”
The group leader stopped and stared at Richard, “What news?”
Richard thumped his foot on the floor and stood up straight. In an instant, the weak aura of prey turned into the aura of a predator. Lightning-like flashes emanated from his eyes. His self-confidence made everyone who saw him tremble slightly.

Richard raised his index finger and pointed it at every officer present in the room. “You, you, you... All of you... Today’s your last day! The Almolia City Prison, which is 160,000 square meters in size, will be leveled to the ground!”Why?Because he had the power to do so.Because his three-year leave had ended.Because he was Richard Dwayne, the man who made the whole world submit to him!Indeed, his words were not mere boasting as everyone had assumed. He could easily dispose of them all in less than ten seconds. Flattening the city prison? That was easy for him! He had plenty of henchmen who could do it in just one day.The leader of the group fell silent for a moment, then snorted and laughed, “Hahaha! You brat! Are you that crazy out of fear of death? Leveling the prison to the ground? Hello? Do you even know who you are dealing with? A parasite in the Nelsons Family, given food to eat, and now you’re trying to act tough?

Here!Is this....Right! These are the people who caused a stir worldwide three years ago. They are the soldiers whose power is feared by the whole world. Everyone in this country knows who they are. The same goes for people abroad.“How’s that?” Elvan asked, leaning forward, trying to get a clearer look at the business card thrown by the captain. He then intentionally made a surprised expression, though not genuinely surprised, “Wow! A world-class elite group? That’s insanely scary!”Seeing Richard’s expression unchanged, Dharia became increasingly annoyed, “You still don’t realize how ridiculous your actions are! One, you hired these people to pretend to be a world-class elite team. Two, you made fake identities to convince them. Three, you no longer respect Winston. I’m sick of you!”After speaking, Dharia took her bag from the table and stepped towards the door. It’s better to escape from this place before the situation gets more complicated. She’s afraid Richard’s foolish actions

“Because I want to step back for 3 years first, and today is the last day.”“Why do you want to step back for 3 years?” Captain asked, curious about Richard’s statement.“You’ll find out soon enough.”Richard didn’t want to talk much because he couldn’t say why he had to do it.The Captain suppressed his curiosity and said, “The ones in Ligos City already got the news, now they’re waiting for your return at headquarters. Until now, I still can’t believe I finally found you....”“I still don’t want to go home now.”Richard immediately cut off the Captain’s speech without waiting for him to finish. Richard had a habit of putting his hand in his pocket, and inside he felt a bank card.The card... was the card Richard wanted to give to Dharia at the hotel.“Eh?” all the team members were surprised to hear it and turned to Richard simultaneously. “Why? Everyone has been waiting for you to come home.”“Yes, let’s go home together!”“Country Rio Dio still needs you, and there are still many

How come there are so many of them?”Though Anastas didn’t know who the person before him was, in his heart, he knew he couldn’t possibly know someone as impressive as them.“Hello, I’m Anastas from Almolia City...” Anastas greeted cautiously as he approached.But they paid no attention to Anastas and stood erect, forming two rows in front of the door.Immediately, the 17 men formed two rows to the left and right, standing with their chests out and heads held high.“The Nelsons Family’s h

The entire Nelsons Family stared at Richard as if he were insane.As long as he wants?Everything in this world could be his?“Pfft... hahaha!”Anastas laughed at the thought of the woman he liked marrying a poor and clueless man.Anastas flaunted his car keys in front of Richard and said, “Can you afford to buy a car worth billions? I’ve heard Aunt say you’re worthless, but turns out you’re not just poor but also full of yourself. Now the Nelsons Family is short of 4 billion. You’re rich, right? Let’s see it!”“Do you really want me to see the money?”“Go ahead! Don’t just talk! Poor people are so full of themselves!”“Hahaha, Carmen’s husband wants to help our company? Amazing. Come on, show us your card.”Whether it was Anastas or the Nelsons Family, they all spat harsh words at Richard.“Okay! See for yourselves if I can really give you 4 billion!”Richard then put his right hand into his pocket. Those who saw it almost believed instantly. However, Richard didn’t pull out anything

“This card must be fake, right? You’re not close to him, are you?”The Nelsons Family was puzzled as they looked at Anastas because he kept denying Richard’s relationship with the Captain. It seemed like he still couldn’t believe what had just happened.But Richard just smiled arrogantly as he lifted the card in his hand.“Do you think I’m not close to him? Do you think this card is fake?”“Pfft, who knows? It’s been 3 years, you didn’t even have money to buy Dharia a birthday gift, how could you possibly....” Anastas retorted while looking at the card in Richard’s hand.But the moment Anastas saw the picture on the card ... there were the initials “ML”!Monolith Bank!There was no mistake, that card was a Monolith Bank card!Only someone whose wealth could match that of the Monolith Group held a ML bank card!“Anastas.

Everyone fell silent upon hearing Richard’ words.“Are you sure you want to divorce Dharia?” Carmen asked.“I didn’t hear wrong, did I? This trash wants to divorce Dharia?” her sister chimed in. “Is it because he’s scared of Winston being angry, so he wants to run away?”Richard’s last hope for Dharia vanished when he saw the hatred on Dharia’s face.“Tomorrow I’m going to the civil registry office to arrange the divorce papers,” said Richard. “With the backing of your friend who claims to be the general manager of Diamond Group, I can get him fired with just one word from me! Don’t expect me to apologize to him!”At first, Carmen felt extremely happy that Dharia could finally escape from the useless man and now marry a wealthy man.But she was surprised when she heard Richard’ words earlier, “Hey, can you actually do that? Do you even know who the general manager of Diamond Group is? Do you know how big Diamond Group is? Look at yourself first, you poor thing! Richard, do you really

The man’s heart was pounding so fast, and he immediately knelt down. The nickname that had been lost for 3 years was finally shouted from his mouth with joy, “Captain Dwayne!”“Captain Dwayne has returned! We’ve been waiting for 3 years. Hahaha. Oh, sorry, Captain Dwayne, I got too excited.”The call of Captain Dwayne to an ordinary person might not mean anything. However, that call was considered like that of a king by them.The name Captain Dwayne represented the highest entity in the business world. The Dwayne Family at that time had become the elite of society and had a lot of inherited wealth. 15 years ago, Richard disappeared for several months, then returned and led his family to glory.“Yes, I’ve come back.”“Cap ... where have you been for the past 3 years? We thought you wouldn’t come back.”“I’m in Almolia City, I’m calling because I have an important task for you.”“Ready!”“Check the incident on May 18th, 15 years ago, the kidnapping incident on East Street ... is the kid

“We haven’t seen each other for a long time, Darling. I’ve been waiting for you to come!” Talyra said coquettishly.“Hm.” Albin replied in a flat tone, “How is Richard at your house? How has he been treating you?”Talyra became even more touched, almost appearing flirtatious, as she heard Albin’s concern for her. Laughing lightly, she answered his question.“Albin, don’t worry. My body and heart will only belong to you. From the past, now, and forever. Even if Richard marries me, I won’t let him touch me!”“He loves me too much now.”“Because yesterday, my mom told him to sleep in the warehouse. She wouldn’t let him sleep in the same room with me. He felt ashamed, humiliated, and was furious. He even hit my mom. His behavior really disgusts me.”“But for you, I’m willing to bear all that disgust.”After hearing Talyra complain about her feelings, Albin maintained his expressionless face. He had no feelings for Talyra.He had been in a relationship with her for over five years, simply

After seeing the behavior of everyone, including the people from the Department of Justice toward Deliza, Richard immediately understood that the woman held an important position in Grimhaven City.With just a glance, she could make the doctors at the medical team kneel and apologize to Richard.That was not something an ordinary person could do.Moreover, today, she was able to come on her own to ask Richard to step in, indicating that the situation had truly spiraled beyond control.While Deliza was looking for Richard to manage the spreading disease, Albin was still in his place, isolating himself from the outside world.The man remained confident, waiting for Grimhaven City to fall into chaos. He was waiting for the right moment to appear at the last minute. At that moment, he would showcase his extraordinary abilities.Similarly, Talyra, who had been instructed by Albin to hold Richard at her house, was stunned when she heard that Richard had been taken away by the people from th

Deliza’s gaze fixed on Richard, and it suddenly became complicated. The woman fell silent, but a thousand questions raced through her mind.The executioners at the Ministry of Justice were the most powerful people in Grimhaven City. And they weren’t alone.There were ten of them!A group like that could easily kill Richard in an instant. No matter how strong or great Richard was, he wouldn’t be able to escape from them.However, those officers told her that they were shaken by the pressure from Richard so badly they vomited blood???This was truly beyond reason!“Alright, I understand. Take them away,” Deliza said, raising her hand and signaling the officers behind her.Immediately, someone came to take away the officers who had been injured by the shock. Before they left, they stared at Richard with looks of horror and disbelief.At that moment, everyone there quietly swallowed and gazed at Richard in silence.Even Deliza had planted a suspicion in her heart. However, her facial expr

Richard stood calmly, his eyes fixed straight ahead, staring at the captain. He appeared relaxed and showed no signs of fear.“Because someone is trying to frame me, I’ll just say this: it’s all useless! Even if you all gang up on me, it won’t matter. Your strength isn’t enough to defeat me!”His words provoked the captain’s emotions.“How arrogant! You’re utterly disrespectful! Soldiers, kill this villain!” ordered the captain.As the command rang out, the soldiers, who possessed high-level internal energy, quickly prepared to punish Richard.Soon after, the sound of powerful blows echoing through the air could be heard as they struck toward Richard. Richard, however, seemed to take it seriously. He reached for a pill and was about to swallow it quickly.Just as the soldiers’ hands were only a meter away from him, suddenly...Boom!!!A terrifying explosion erupted, sending shockwaves in every direction. All the soldiers collapsed to the ground, blood spurting from their mouths.They

In the midst of a hushed atmosphere, their eyes widened in shock, and their mouths hung open. After a few seconds, the silence erupted into an uproar.“Richard… doesn’t he not have a medical certificate? How could he possibly heal the Chief Medical Officer? Was this just a coincidence? Like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead rat?”“Hey, you know it yourself. His condition was so critical that none of us could cure him. But the moment Richard arrived, he recovered!”“This… this must be a coincidence...”Meanwhile, inside the treatment room, the Chief Medical Officer had just ended a call and hurriedly made his way out.He had heard with his own ears how the doctors were denying that Richard had saved him. As he stepped out, he shot them a sharp glare, his expression filled with displeasure.“What are you all saying? Hey, the one who cured me was Richard!” the Chief Medical Officer declared firmly.His words struck like a thunderous bolt. The doctors were stunned. They couldn’t believe t

The staff quickly went outside to deliver the message to Noman, who was still waiting there.“Sorry, Mr. Noman. Mrs. Deliza said you should go home. She already knows what you’re going to ask. Please wait until everything is under control.”“What? Go home? How can I go home empty-handed like this? No! I won’t leave until I meet Mrs. Deliza. I must meet Mrs. Deliza right now.”“Please tell Mrs. Deliza that if I can’t meet her, I will kneel here until she agrees to see me!” Noman insisted.Not long after, the staff returned to meet Deliza and conveyed what Noman had said.“Ma’am, sorry, Mr. Noman refuses to leave. He said that if he doesn’t meet you, he will keep kneeling right here.”“Enough! Don’t mind him! Let’s focus on finding someone named Richard!” Deliza replied.Time passed little by little. Noman kneeled in front of the door all night as the epidemic continued to spread in Grimhaven City.The doctors were also waiting, sitting around, some even falling asleep in front of the M

“Sorry, Mr. Noman. The higher-ups have already reminded us that we must take illnesses seriously. This matter cannot be taken lightly, Mr. Noman.”“Since Richard has already performed medical procedures on the Chief Medical Officer without a medical certificate, he must bear the consequences,” said the team captain.“It can’t be like this! I’m the one who brought Richard here, I’m the one who brought him to treat my father. You have no right to take Richard away!” Noman rejected firmly.It seemed that none of Noman’s objections were taken into account. The captain of Team Nine continued with his duties and ordered his subordinates.“Arrest him now!” ordered the Team Captain.In fact, the members of the captain’s team were no match for Richard.However, Richard did not want to cause chaos there.Richard just smiled and said, “Honorable Captain of Team Nine, are you sure you want to arrest me? Don’t blame me, I’ve already warned you.”“After I leave, this infectious disease will be hard
Chapter 769: Healing the Chief Medical Officer!
After gaining Noman’s trust, Richard decided not to hesitate any longer in helping the Chief Medical Officer, who was Noman’s father.Then, the patient’s room door was forcibly opened, and Richard entered. The doctors outside immediately felt annoyed.“Mr. Noman, how can you say something like that? Where is Richard a doctor from? Does he have a medical certificate?”“I’ve lived in Grimhaven City for a long time, but I’ve never heard of a doctor named Richard until now! Have you been brainwashed by him? How could he possibly heal the Chief Medical Officer?”“I’ll call the authorities to have Richard arrested! Someone who dares to insult Mr. Albin can’t be a good person!” one of the doctors said as he raised the phone.Noman was very angry hearing the doctors’ words about Richard. However, he remembered Richard’s ability to heal his father.He didn’t want to waste time dealing with these doctors. Besides, if the authorities did arrive to arrest Richard, Richard would have already finis

Richard laughed for a moment after hearing Noman’s words, then he replied, “Yes, the rumor is true!”Noman was immediately stunned upon hearing that answer. It seemed that his suspicions had been correct.“Thank you for being concerned about me,” Richard said sincerely.Noman smiled and waved his hand, “Ah, there’s no need to thank me. I said that because I still remember what the Ashbourne family did to you.”“Hearing that you went back there, I was worried they’d start oppressing you again,” Noman added.Richard nodded slowly. He understood what Noman meant.After a while, the car finally stopped at the entrance of the medical campus. Richard, who was walking down the hallway, could clearly hear the sounds of pain.“Aaaaarrggghhhh...!!!”The voice was very familiar to him. Before long, Richard found himself behind the doctors who looked extremely anxious, staring at the door where the Chief Medical Officer was inside.“What should we do? The Chief Medical Officer is in pain again an
