Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 107: His Intention
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
Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 112: Co-Conspirator
For a moment, no one spoke.James’ fists trembled at his sides, his knuckles white. His breaths came sharp and unsteady.He wanted to punch Oliver for making him feel this way. But at the same time, he knew Oliver had a point in one statement he uttered.Deep inside his heart, James felt guilty for neglecting Jack back then.They even had more bonding moments in the hospital than when living in the same house.“You’re thinking it all wrong, James,” Ray said gently, trying to calm James down. “No one here liked what happened. You don't even have any idea how much we’re suffering until now because of his death.”The sincerity was evident in Ray’s voice.It was the truth; the pain was still with them even though Jack died for a long time already.James didn’t answer. Instead, he looked away, biting his lip hard.‘All along, I thought no one cared when Jack died,’ James thought, feeling the pain in his heart. ‘I searched for them, but no one wasn’t to be found, causing me to think they we
Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 113: No Turning Back
Everyone turned to Oliver, trying to grasp the weight of his words—except for Ray, who understood immediately.“So, what are we doing about Francis?” Ray asked, shifting the conversation. “Are we letting him go for now?”“Taking him carelessly wouldn’t be an option, but that doesn’t mean we’ll let him go,” Oliver answered coldly. “I’ll go to work as Oliver Wellington tomorrow, and I’ll approach Francis with that disguise.”Samuel frowned, his concern evident. “What if he already knows you’re Oliver Hunt? That plan could backfire, especially since you’ll be alone.”Oliver paused, considering the risk. Then, his fists clenched slightly as he spoke.“If that’s the case, it means we’re getting closer to uncovering the third accomplice.” His voice was steady, resolute. “And while I may be alone in Capital Hall, I know you all have my back if things go south.”“What if he also knows about Legion V’s existence?” Nick couldn’t help but ask, looking at the computer screen. “Those people were a
Zero: God Of Mercenary Chapter 114: Last Card
As Oliver exited Nick’s house, he was shocked to see James sitting on the bench while puffing his cigarette.Shaking his head, Oliver took the cigarette from James’ mouth without a warning. He stepped on it repeatedly on the floor.“Ah, damn,” James muttered a curse, his glance moving from the cigarette to Oliver. “You won’t act like a damn brother to me, aren’t you?”“I won’t if you stay out of my sight,” Oliver replied coldly, ignoring James’ hostility toward him. “But why are you still here?”James didn’t answer that question. Instead, he looked away, focusing his attention to the clear sky.“Wait… Are you still hoping I’ll let you be a Legion V member?” Oliver asked, his brows furrowing with the realization. “Not a chance. Leave now.”Even with his cold demeanor, James didn’t move. This time, his gaze went toward Oliver, looking him in the eye.“Fine. I will—”“Did you treat my brother as a friend, not just a mere colleague?” James asked, interrupting Oliver’s words. “Aren’t you a

Chapter 209: The Way To Unlock The Fund
“You’ll need to sign this to unlock the fund, Oliver,” Blackwell explained quietly, his tone professional but oddly distant. “It’s that easy.”Oliver’s hand hovered over the folder, but he didn’t open it just yet. His instincts were screaming at him, and the air in the room felt suffocating.‘Why did Trisha need me to sign this now?’ Oliver asked, his brows furrowing. ‘What was she planning?’“I’ll need a moment,” Oliver said, his voice low. “I also need to personally check my account and see if I can withdraw from it or not.Trisha’s smile faltered just slightly, though she masked it quickly. “Sure. He could do it, right? Mr. Blackwell?”“You can, Mr. Hunt,” answered Richard with a professional smile. “And if you can’t withdraw from it, you can go back here and let’s talk for a little longer.”Oliver nodded, and without hesitation, he went outside the private office.Just to be sure, he went to the reception area and asked, “Is Rebecca Carter in the VIP room?”“No, Sir,” the receptio

Oliver paused, and a few seconds later, he stood slowly.“Let’s go, then,” he said in a low tone.Trisha blinked, caught off guard. “You’ll come?”“I’ll come,” Oliver replied. “But not for you. I want to see who else is trying to get their hands on my money.”Upon hearing those words, Trisha suddenly froze in her spot. ‘For sure that I didn’t make my words be interpreted that way,’ Trisha said, biting her lower lip.‘But how did he come to that conclusion?’Trisha was about to ask that question, but before he could speak, Oliver beat her to it.“Aren’t you coming with me?” Oliver asked, his brows furrowing as he was ready to leave the cafe at any time.“Y-Yes,” Trisha answered, taking a deep breath. “Wait for me.”*****The bustling streets outside Umbrella Bank seemed distant as Oliver and Trisha walked in silence. Trisha’s high heels clicked against the pavement, creating more tension in the air. Oliver, on the other hand, kept his eyes ahead. His mind was sharp, processing every
Chapter 207: Business Conversation
“That’s the spirit,” Denver said, giving her a short nod of approval. “Then we have a deal, Trisha. I’ll help you get what you want.” Just remember, when the time comes, I’ll expect you to return the favor,” he added, a menacing smirk creeping to his face. “We’ll be working together on this.”Trisha didn’t even hesitate. She held his gaze firmly, a smile tugging on her lips. “Deal.”Both of them extended their hands, shaking hands as if they were doing a business agreement.Then, as Denver got up to leave, he gave her one last look. “Oliver won’t know what hit him. We’ll make sure of that.”It gave Trisha a sense of fulfilment, although they aren’t executing their plan just yet. But she has a good feeling about this.“We will.” Trisha nodded. “And even though we’re not starting yet, thank you for the help, Denver.”Denver only nodded in response before walking away, leaving Trisha sitting in the dimly lit bar, her mind now working with a sense of certainty. She had her plan, and wi
Chapter 206: Mutual Advantage
Denver leaned back, his posture relaxed but his eyes sharp. “I’ve just been hearing a lot about you, Trisha. Especially about what happened last night.” He grinned. “You’ve got quite a... complicated situation going on with Oliver. And he humiliated you? At the parking lot?”Trisha did her best not to look shocked as soon as Denver said those words. But her eyes blew it all away.At the same time, she wasn’t that surprised with how much Denver knew. He had too many eyes in different places. Basically, now that Zayne was gone, the town was practically his.“I know that you’re not interested in gossip, and it’s the same as mine,” Trisha scoffed, rolling her eyes. “So, stop beating around the bush and tell me what you want.”Trisha couldn’t hide the annoyance in her voice. She was in no mood for anyone to waste her time, especially now that she was thinking of a plan to bring Oliver down.Denver’s smirk grew wider, and he leaned forward slightly.“I know you, Trisha. You’re thinking of
Chapter 205: By Hook Or By Crook
“You’re out of your mind if you think you still have any hold over him,” she said, her tone condescending. “And to be honest, I’m not afraid of you, or any tactics that you will use in the future.”Seraphine added, now her voice firm and laced with sincerity,“I’m not going to let you destroy what Oliver and I have, and the family we’re starting to build. So you can keep playing your little games, but it won’t work.” Seraphine’s voice was low and intimidating. “It’s over.”There was a brief, tense silence, and then Trisha’s voice was laced with anger. “You’re so naive, Seraphine.” Trisha chuckled sarcastically. “I’ll make sure you regret this. He’ll see the truth soon enough, that there are so many fish in the ocean, and she doesn’t need to stick with you. She added, “And when he does, you won’t even be a memory.”“Fishes?” Seraphine asked and laughed. She didn’t even bother to conceal it. “He’s not looking for fishes because Oliver is not a goddamn fisherman, Trisha. I’m not a fis
Chapter 204: It's Over
Oliver nodded, understanding the unspoken weight of her words. He knew that she needed more time, and hopefully, this conversation would help her make a decision."Take your time," he said, his voice laced with sincerity. "But I’ll be here."“Thank you,” Seraphine replied, a small smile tugging on her lips as she held the strap of her bag. “That’s it. I’ll take the train back to the capital. I need to go back to Anastasia.”Oliver wanted her to stay, even just for a little bit, so they would be together. But at the same time, he understood her dilemma. Anastasia couldn’t be left alone.‘And if something bad happens to her while we’re not around, I don’t know if Seraphine could still take it,’ Oliver thought.So, he answered, “Alright. Take care, Sera.”Seraphine only nodded in response. Then, she stood up and left the café.Oliver couldn’t help but feel that things were still fragile between them. But now, at least, they were moving in the right direction.He knew that Seraphine still
Chapter 203: Trust
“I think I heard enough,” Oliver said, his jaw clenching. “I’ll send you my wife’s email address so you could email her, and maybe talk to her if she insists.”It was only a spare email, so he wouldn’t compromise Seraphine’s identity. And he didn’t know if this technique would be effective either.But he was willing to try everything if that meant gaining Seraphine’s forgiveness and trust again.“I’ll take care of Trisha. Don’t worry. It’s a deal.”Before Carolina could answer, Oliver had already ended the call.He already knows what to do next. With what happened earlier, it was more than enough for Trisha to behave.So, this time, he dialed Trisha’s number.Within a few seconds, she answered, as if she were already expecting this call.“That was too quick,” Trisha said on the other line, her tone smug. “Why? Did Seraphine already call you, tell you that you’re trash, and already break up with you, huh?”Oliver clenched his teeth, wanting to talk back. But he composed himself because
Chapter 202: Unexpected Help
Oliver was about to speak again, explaining more. But before he could even do that, Seraphine sighed heavily, the sound so weary it nearly broke him."I just… I can’t keep doing this, Oliver,” she muttered, her voice cracking. “I can't keep feeling like I’m going to be blindsided every time you walk out the door.”She added, “I trusted you. God knows I still do. But… I don’t know how to process these things.” Her voice was pained, and it hit Oliver like a physical blow.“Seraphine, please—”“I need time,” Seraphine said quietly, halting Oliver from finishing his sentence. “I need space to think. I don’t know if I can keep trusting you right now.”And before Oliver could explain, Seraphine had ended the call.Oliver stood in the middle of his room, his hand gripping the phone tightly, staring at the empty screen. It felt like the world had just tilted under his feet.For a moment, he didn’t know what to do, or even where to begin to fix this.All he knew was that he couldn’t let it en
Chapter 201: Breaking The Bond
Seraphine’s phone buzzed on the side table, and she barely glanced at it.However, something about the unfamiliar number flashing on the screen made her frown.Curious, she reached for it and unlocked it. Seraphine suddenly forgot how to breathe for a moment upon seeing the picture sent to her.Staring back at her was a picture, and although it was a blurry one, something was unmistakable. Oliver was in the picture with a woman.A woman pressing her lips to his. And it was just not any other woman.It was Trisha.“Shit… What is…” Seraphine trailed off, not even able to finish her sentence as her heart twisted painfully. “What the hell is this…”Her fingers gripped the phone tightly without realizing it, her knuckles whitening.But that wasn’t all. A few seconds later, Seraphine received another message.[You really think he’s loyal to you? Think again, Seraphine. You’re not the only woman in the world.]Seraphine’s mind blanked for a moment.“No…” she whispered aloud, the word falling
