Chapter 101
Back in the interrogation room, Dustin and Dahlia sat with their backs against each other for warmth. Such peaceful moments were rare from the moment they were married until their divorce. No one spoke anything as they remained silent for a while. “Dustin, do you think we will walk out of here alive?” Finally, Dahlia broke the silence. She couldn’t stand the damp and dark surroundings that forced her to think depressive thoughts. Furthermore, Mr. Gardner wasn’t easy to deal with. Her heart thumped with fear at what would happen to them. “Don’t scare yourself. We will definitely leave this place in one piece,” Dustin comforted her. “What if we don’t? Do you have any last wishes?” Dahlia murmured glumly. “There’s no possibility of us dying. Let’s talk after we get out,” Dustin replied. “Not after we have offended Lord Asmon. With his connections and resources, getting rid of us would be as easy as killing a gnat.” Dahlia sighed. Even if she pooled all her resources

Dustin kicked the limp body of a man lying beside him. It flew like a bullet and crashed into Mr. Gardner, who was attempting to escape. He screamed in pain and fell to the ground, unable to run any longer. “I’ve warned you not to touch her.” Dustin strolled up to him and hissed murderously, his eyes boring dangerously into Mr. Gardner. “Kid, don't forget you’re in the police station! You can't go too far!” Mr. Gardner backed away on all fours.“Too far? What will you do about it?” Dustin chuckled as he crushed Mr. Gardner’s arm with his foot. The immense pain from his broken arm caused Mr. Gardner to howl in agony. “Dustin! Stop it!” Blood drained from Dahlia’s face. Even though they were innocent, they could be charged with excessive self-defense if they fought back against the police. It would only complicate the situation! “Come back to your senses, kid! Confess and turn yourself in so that you still have a chance to save yourself. If not, there will be no mercy!”

“Stop this right now!” A loud voice rang out. A group of men in suits and armed to the teeth filed into the room. “Who are you? How dare you enter the interrogation room without permission! Are you starting a riot?” Mr. Gardner screamed in fury. At this moment, he was stewing with rage. The only thought in his mind was to rip Dustin up into pieces, and anybody who stood in his path would be his mortal enemy as well!“Mr. Gardner, what an honor to see you!” The crowd of people parted like the Red Sea as a gorgeous, alluring woman stalked into the room in her high heels. “Natasha?” When Mr. Gardner saw who it was, the expression on his face fell as the burning rage in his eyes died down. “You’re lucky, Dustin. Your girlfriend is here to save you.” Dahlia said sarcastically when she saw Natasha arrive. She felt a little frustrated. Although she was relieved at the thought of being rescued, she felt a twinge of annoyance at receiving Natasha’s help. As she was Dustin’s

Hunter pulled the trigger immediately after his countdown. With a loud bang, a bullet went through Mr. Gardner’s ear. He let out a bone-chilling cry and hold on to his bleeding ear, staggering backward. “Are you crazy? How dare you shoot me!” Mr. Gardner shouted hysterically. He thought Hunter was just all talk. Who knew that Hunter would really pull the trigger? “The next time, I won’t miss my aim.” Hunter cocked the gun and aimed it toward Mr. Gardner’s face.“I’ll ask again. Will you release Dustin, or will I?” Mr. Gardner shivered in fright. At this rate, it was highly possible that Hunter would go crazy and murder him in cold blood. As Mr. Gardner was stuck in a dilemma, a ruckus was heard at the door of the interrogation room again. An elderly man with snowy white hair rushed in with his men. “Mr. Granville?” At his arrival, the whole interrogation room went silent. The elderly man standing before them was the mayor of Swinton, the highest-ranking official

“We are finished!” When Draco saw that Mr. Gardner had been apprehended, his face paled in shock. From Mr. Granville’s appearance until the arrest of Mr. Gardner, Draco couldn’t make sense of what was going on as everything had happened in a flash. The only thing he could be sure of was that Mr. Granville did not let his son-in-law off the hook. This meant that he was going to be in trouble as well. Draco thought that Mr. Granville was their savior. Who knew that he was here to bring them to justice?This world could be so unpredictable! Draco turned back and glanced at Dustin, who had remained silent all this while. He had an expression of indifference on his face, as if he had known this would happen all along. Who was this man, and why was Mr. Granville treating him with such respect? Why would Lord Asmon have a grudge against such a monster? “Arrest all the other men as well!” Mr. Granville barked an order. Draco and Mr. Gardner’s men were all apprehended. Mr. G

At this moment, in a beautiful villa. Duane was talking to a young man dressed in luxurious clothes. Behind that man, two female bodyguards stood at attention. They were armed with swords and emitted an unapproachable aura. “Duane, what’s this gemiphen that you are talking about? Is it really that powerful?” Oliver Williams took a sip of his coffee. “Mr. Williams, I can assure you of its effects. I have personally tried the pill myself!” Duane boasted confidently, “A gemiphen pill saved my life when I was close to death from internal injuries. I’m not exaggerating when I say this medicine could heal almost anything!” “Talk is cheap. Where’s the pill? Let me have a look.” Oliver stretched out his palm. “Due to the rarity of gemiphen, I do not have one with me right now.” “Are you joking? You called me here in the dead of the night for a deal. How could you not be prepared with the goods?” Oliver’s eyes glinted coldly. “Mr. Williams, please calm down. I would never dare

“Duane, come out and meet your maker!”Dustin’s roar of anger echoed through the villa like a clap of thunder. When Duane heard this contemptuous challenge, he was furious. “Which idiot is dumb enough to cause trouble on my property?” Duane thought as he rushed out in a hurry. However, when he saw Dustin in a distance, he couldn’t help but be taken aback. “It’s you, Dustin! Weren’t you arrested? How did you escape?” He had bribed Mr. Gardner to arrest Dustin and detain him in the interrogation room. Even if Natasha were to intervene, she couldn’t have helped him escape. “Was it you who framed me for the crime?” Dustin demanded coldly. “Since you are already here, it means that you know the answer to your question. You’re right, I am the one who framed you! However, you only have yourself to blame. I had to go to such lengths because you did not appreciate the chances that I have given you.” Duane smirked.“At the very least, you confessed to your crime. Now, I’ll giv

Duane exclaimed in terror, cold sweat pouring down his back. As a martial artist, Duane was well-known for his agile and deadly attacks. At his peak performance, the massive energy from his sword could move mountains! How was Dustin able to intercept his attack? What kind of monster could shatter swords with his bare hands? Dustin could not be human!“Don’t you already know who I am?” Dustin closed the distance menacingly and glared at him with icy-cold eyes. “Stay—Stay away!” Duane backed away in a panic. “I don’t need the gemiphen’s prescription any longer. Please let me go!” “I have given you a chance to redeem yourself, but you didn’t take it. It’s too late to regret now!” Dustin clapped his hands on Duane’s shoulders and squeezed tightly. With a loud crack, Duane’s arms were dislocated from their joints. An agonizing howl escaped Duane’s lips as intense pain spread throughout his body. Without hesitation, Dustin added a punch to his abdomen. The force of D
