Chapter 320
It was noon. At the clubhouse of the Hummer's residence, Edwin Hummer was struck on the head with a wine bottle. Blood trickled down his body, along with the merlot. "Hummer! I was screwed because of you!" Tatum sat on the couch; his features contorted in anger. "Didn't you say that Dustin Rhys was a nobody? Why was he that powerful? Did you lie to me on purpose?" At his mentor's request, Tatum had shown up to avenge Joshua Hummer. In the beginning, he thought he could show off his talent, but he was badly defeated in the end. Not only that, his core was destroyed. He had all the reason to be mad. "Sir Thunders, in my records, Dustin Rhys did not come from a remarkable background. It wasn't wrong to describe him as a nobody. As for his actual abilities, I recall giving you a heads up, but you didn't take it seriously," Edwin murmured with his head hung low. "Are you blaming me for being weak?" Tatum glowered at him. If he weren't hurt, he would have taught Edwin a lesson. "In

In the evening, Dustin was focused on drug research at the Peaceful Medical Centre when a silver Bentley rolled to a stop at the entrance. The door opened, and Natasha, dressed in a bodycon silver dress, strutted out, her hips swaying alluringly as she walked. "Dear, I'm here …" She entered the medical center with a sweet smile and took Dustin by his arm. "Let's go! I'll bring you out to have a nice dinner tonight!" "A nice dinner? Where to?" He was curious, but she dragged him into her car without further explanation. "You'll know when we're there." The car cruised at a steady speed down the streets. Forty minutes later, it parked in front of the entrance of a high-end recreational club. "Ms. Harmon, you're here! Please come with me," one of the ushers led the way as the other ushers lined up and bowed to the guests. They shuffled up to the restaurant on the second floor and made their way to a spacious private lounge, where a couple of young men and women had congregated. The

Zeke's jaw dropped to the floor. Not only was Dustin not an alumnus of a prestigious institution, but he also did not attend university. Was he even a good match for Natasha? "Natasha, what's going on? You didn't drag a random man here just to shut us up, did you?" Zoey was displeased, for she believed that a doctor from an ordinary medical center wasn't worthy of sharing a dinner table with their group. "Stop acting funny. Dustin is an expert in medicine and martial arts. You'll know soon." Natasha puffed her chest with a smile. "Natasha, I'm sorry, but you'd be better off dating me if you were giving this doctor a chance," Gordon finally spoke up half-jokingly. He had once pursued Natasha but was turned down. Now that Natasha got her eyes on an ordinary doctor, he started to think he had a chance because he felt that he was way better than Dustin. After all, the Flynn family was one of the elites in Balerno."Right, Natasha, I think Gordon's pretty decent. He stayed single jus

"Guys! Take her!" Under the man's orders, the two bodyguards stepped forward, ready to act. "Hold on!" Zeke stood up suddenly and hissed, "Adriana is my schoolmate. I don't care who you are. You need to get the fuck out right now, or I won't go easy on you!" "That's right! The audacity to take her in our presence!" Gordon slammed the table with an imposing air. Adriana was a rising star, crowned the queen of entertainment, and she rivaled Natasha in the looks department. Of course, the guys would not give up on the opportunity to save the damsel in distress. "Sir, this has nothing to do with you. Stay out of it!" the middle-aged man warned the guys icily. "Hmph! We see it as our business! Get out of here if you don't want to die!" Zeke bellowed at them. "Throw these jerks out!" the middle-aged man roared, and the two bodyguards went to work. Seeing that, Zeke and Gordon confidently took on one bodyguard each. Zeke's style was more of a street gangster's—he ruthlessly hit the

Had it not been for her seniors' protection, Adriana believed she would have fallen into the abyss. "How dare these bastards force you into such filthy deals? That's shameless!" Zeke was indignant after hearing her account. "Hmph! They're just an entertainment agency. How dare they do that to you? Do they think they are above the law?" Gordon fumed and promised, "Adriana, do not worry. We will see this through. No matter who your boss is, we won't go easy on him!" "That's right! We will surely avenge you!" the others chimed in, looking as though they were ready for a battle. "Thank you." Tears of gratitude streamed down Adriana's face. "By the way, Adriana, what's the name of your boss?" Natasha suddenly asked. "I only know that Langford is his last name. I don't know anything else," Adriana answered."Langford?" The friends exchanged glances, and after connecting the dots, they appeared terrified. "That can't be it! Is he from the Langford family of Glenstead?" The aris

Zeke almost toppled over from the slap by the middle-aged man. "You …" Zeke gritted his teeth, a scowl forming on his face after being humiliated in front of everyone. However, his hands were tied because the men outnumbered him and came with the backing of the Langfords. "My friend, let's not burn bridges. What's the point of coming at us?" Gordon frowned and intervened. "Fuck you!" The man grabbed a beer bottle and smashed it on Gordon's head. The beer was everywhere in an instant, and Gordon was bleeding from the head. "That's too much!" Zoey jumped out and protested, "Do you know who you just hit? He's the son of the Flynn family—Gordon Flynn!" "I don't care wherever the fuck he's from. He's dead meat if he gets into trouble with the Langfords." The man was ferocious. Zoey choked on anger. "Y-y-you'd better not be a bully!" "What if I am a bully? Whoever tries to step up today will stand in the firing line!" The man gestured, and his bodyguards drew their swords. Thei

The middle-aged man's expression was unfriendly, "I'm warning you. Don't try to be a hero. Otherwise, I'll break both your legs!" "You can hit anyone but her." Dustin stood in front of Natasha, his gaze calm. "And if I do?" he sneered. "Then I'll cripple you," Dustin smiled. "You must be tired of living, bastard!" The middle-aged man finally erupted in anger. "Get him! I want him beaten mercilessly! I'll take full responsibility if he dies!""Yes, sir!" On his command, the bodyguards stopped holding back, immediately brandishing their knives at Dustin. Dustin slammed one hand on the table, and the knives on the table bounced up. With a wave of his sleeves, sharp whistles were heard. Appearing like hidden weapons, the knives shot straight into the bodyguards' knees. In a blink of an eye, the previously arrogant and intimidating group of bodyguards were taken down. "What?" The middle-aged man's expression shifted upon the scene laid out before him. He'd been around long e

"Don't worry. I started this. I'll make sure not to pull you both down into this mess. Of course, if you're scared, you could leave first. I didn't see a thing," Dustin said casually. A few simple words had made them feel indignant, and their faces burned, especially from the looks the three women were giving them. It was humiliating to be looked down on by an ordinary doctor. "You're dead meat, punk! All of you are dead meat!" The middle-aged man got up from the floor with a disheveled appearance. "Say that again? Who's dead meat?" Dustin gave him another slap. "You—" Before he could speak, another heavy slap landed on his face. With a grunt, finally, he fainted from the attacks. Zoey and the rest of them watched in shock. They couldn't believe Dustin was merciless and dared attack with such force, even though he knew the other party was from the Langford family. He must really not value his life! "Weakling." Dustin dusted his hands, feeling unsatisfied. "Dustin! Do yo
