The Mighty Fighter Is Back

Chapter 3: Unfolding His Power

The armored car rumbled forth and knocked down many tables. People were screaming and dodging.

"Stop it!"

George Miller, the head of the Miller family was furious. He stood up and ordered the guards to stop the car.

"Where is this car from? The military?"

"This man must be a troublemaker. It's going to be interesting."

"The Miller family is one of the ten most prominent families of Evento. How dare this guy come to make trouble?"

Seeing this, many people gather around, all shocked and stunned.

"How joyous!" Richard jumped down and strode inside with coldness in his eyes. Though he was alone, but he was as powerful as an army.

He glanced at everyone with his sharp cold eyes. They all trembled, feeling like being stabbed by a sharp sword. People lowered their heads, fearing to look him in the eye and shivering.

Richard scanned the spot but couldn't find Maria, which made his face crueler. Finally, his eyes rested on Catherine, the love of his life.

Now she was in a wedding dress, remarrying another man. But her eyes were full of concern and misery. Her pretty face with crystal tears made her more adorable.

"Catherine, you're such a good mother, aren't you? Ignoring your daughter and remarrying in haste!"

He had no idea what had happened.

Catherine turned to him, her eyes wide open. She was shocked, "Ri…Richard?"

She rubbed her eyes hard, not believing what she had seen. James was also staring at Richard with cold eyes and murmured, "Damn, why the hell he's still alive?"

"Since you ask for it, let me send you to hell!"

Five years ago, it was James who had kidnapped Richard, because he wanted Catherine.

But unexpectedly, Richard returned alive five years later, driving a bad-ass armored car and spoiling his wedding.

Eddy and Jane also recognized it was Richard. Eddy beamed, "It's Richard. He's back!"

Jane looked at Richard with contempt, "A piece of crap. He can do nothing even he's back. He can't stop this!" Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Richard Thompson? Isn't him missing? When did he come back?"

"He's rubbish. How can he compete with young Master Miller?"

Oliver, Duke and many others were all sneering at Richard. In their eyes, he was nothing. His return would only bring him shame.

With all eyes on him, Richard walked forth, staring at Catherine coldly and gritting his teeth. He questioned her angrily, "Catherine, why did you abandon our child and marry this scum?"

At this moment, he really wanted to slap her.

"What?"

Catherine had hoped that Richard was here to save her. But his words struck her like thunder. The next second, she slapped hard on Richard's face. Her eyes were brimmed with tears, "How dare you blame all this on me, Richard? Do you have any idea how I had spent the last five years?"

"I was pregnant with your child unmarried. Everyone despised me. They said our child had no father. They called her a bastard!"

"Maria was diagnosed leukemia soon after birth. She had nosebleeds and coughs. Do you know how painful I was when I looked at her like that?"

"Can you imagine how we had spent the last five years without anyone to rely on?"

"Mom and Dad are getting old. And you were missing. I raised Maria alone. There was nobody I could rely on. Do you know how painful it was?"

"Maria is seriously ill now. If she doesn't get bone marrow transplant, she'll die. To save her and repay my family's debt, I had to marry this scum!"

"You've been away for five years. How could you say that to me?"

"I hate you!"

Catherine's eyes were red, tears streaming down her face.

At this moment, grievance, bitterness and sadness all mixed together in her heart. She broke down.

She dashed to Richard and beat him on the chest. Her makeup was smudged by tears.

Hearing her word, Richard felt like struck by thunder. He finally understood.

Catherine didn't betray him, neither did she abandon their daughter. She was forced to do so. Every word she had just said was like sharp knives that thrust into his heart. He felt very painful and guilty.

He thought she was so cruel to abandon their daughter to marry someone from a rich family. But he didn't know what she and Maria had suffered.

And it was James who had forced her to get marry. Richard was sad. He put his arms around Catherine and said to her gently, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

"But now I assure you, since I'm back, I'll protect you!"

Catherine trembled, and she hugged Richard and cried. Richard's eyes were red as well, and he felt even guiltier.

Seeing them hugging each other like no one else was around, James was furious, "Thompson, how dare you bastard come to snatch my bride!"

"Guards, get rid of him!"

Many guards came out to get Richard out.

"Don't you touch me!"

Richard's face hardened. He held Catherine and took down all the guards with only a few moves. They were all knocked down onto the ground, groaning. At this moment, cruelness exuded from him, making everyone present scared.

"What?"

Everyone was dumbfounded at the sight of the scene.

James gawked and froze in place.

'He beat all the guards alone? Wicked.'

'Is he Bruce Lee?'

The Smith family was shocked. Oliver and Duke looked somber.

"Wow…" Catherine goggled at this, feeling unbelievable.

'When did Richard become so strong and powerful?'

'He was just a poor guy before. What happened to him in the last five years? How come he becomes so strong?' James frowned.

Now everyone knew Richard was not the one he had used to be.

"Thompson, you bastard, let go of my wife!" James gritted his tears with rage in his heart, glaring at Richard.

It was James wedding today, but Richard ruined everything for him in front of so many people. Not only did Richard take away Catherine, but also beat James' guards, leaving him faceless.

"Almost forget you! You culprit!"

Holding Catherine tight, Richard stared at James coldly, and said to him word by word, "James, hand over Maria, or I will kill you all!"
