Chapter 386
"Madam Gloria, you need to be fair. What you're doing now is intentionally setting me up to fail!" Dahlia had a sour expression on her face. No sane person would sit still after being robbed of one billion dollars."Shut up! Where are your manners when you're speaking to my grandma? You should know your place!" Dakota yelled at Dahlia."You need to pay up for what you've done. Dustin lashed out at people, and he should rightly pay for that. This is enough. I'll be upfront with you. If you pull another one billion dollars, I'll make you the chairman. If you can't, you should get lost." Gloria waved impatiently in a confident manner, as though she had Dahlia in her grip."Why are you still standing there? Get lost now!" Dakota urged Dahlia to leave. However, before leaving, Dahlia said, "Madam Gloria, since you're being unfair, I will report this to the patriarch and make him the judge of this case.""Stop right there!" With a sullen face, Gloria bellowed, "You rascal! How dare you

"How dare you lay a finger on Madam Gloria? You crossed the line!" The elderly servants standing around were taken aback when they saw that Gloria had been slapped. Enraged, they flung themselves at Dustin and attacked him."A bunch of rude bitches!" Dustin's expression hardened, and he slapped the elderly servants out of his way without a word. Some fainted on the spot; some were bleeding from their noses and mouths; and some lost their teeth. Within a blink of an eye, those who assaulted Dahlia were lying on the floor, immobile."Dustin Rhys, how dare you hit us? You're asking for trouble!" Dakota stood up, albeit staggering, with a look of menace and resentment on her face. She was the daughter of a wealthy family, and her grandma was one of the heads of the Nicholson Family. A good-for-nothing like Dustin had beaten them up—he clearly didn't know his place!"Not only am I beating you up, but I will also cripple you!" Dustin gave Dakota a heavy kick in the abdomen, sending her fl

"Don Juan?" Dustin's lips twitched in disbelief. What was going on? Why did he get labeled as a playboy just for applying some medication to his patient?"Ms. Harmon, there's a misunderstanding here. He's in fact applying the medication to my injuries." Dahlia could not suppress a tiny smile at the jealousy on Natasha's face. "Well, if you don't trust my words, there's nothing I can do about it." Then, she slowly put on her clothes with a taunting look in her eyes."Hmph! I need some medication too!" Natasha sat down beside Dustin and started unbuttoning her clothes."Hey, what are you doing!" Shocked, he immediately stopped her. She gave him a look of displeasure. "What? You can apply medication for her, but not for me?""That's because you're not hurt!" Dustin was helpless in the face of the young lady from a wealthy family who was acting like a child."Who said so? I am hurt in the heart, and it's much worse than what she's going through! Just touch it, and you'll know!" A

"I can't pick! They taste different, and the choice will depend on the time, the place, and the preference of the person." Dustin bit the bullet and offered a neutral opinion."Hmph! You're really good at talking yourself out of situations!" Dahlia rolled her eyes, but at least she stopped bugging him."No matter what, you have to pick the ribs!" However, Natasha was more aggressive, supported by the confidence that she had Dustin wrapped around her finger. He could only smile without saying a word as he was drenched in cold sweat."Dear, come with me. I have something to discuss with you." After the heart-stopping lunch, Dustin was called to the side to talk by Natasha. Dahlia pretended that she was out for a casual stroll to eavesdrop. However, Natasha immediately noticed her plans and dragged Dustin into her car, keeping everyone out of their private discussion."Natasha, what do you want to discuss?" He was curious. Natasha suddenly announced, "I'll be honest with you—I mig
Chapter 390
As night descended, there was a commotion at the Nicholson Villa as the entrance door was busted down. Then, Gloria and her bodyguards from the Nicholson Family barged in pompously. Two men, who were more than six feet tall, were eye-catching. The two guards shared some resemblance, and the muscles on their bodies were chiseled like rock cliffs. They stood there like two huge mountains that evoked fear."Dahlia Nicholson! Get out right now!" Gloria yelled at the top of her lungs when she stepped foot in the house. Her face was still bruised from Dustin's beating in the morning, looking terrifying, especially with the awful scowl."Oh! If it isn't Madam Gloria? What brings you here?" Florence emerged from the kitchen but jumped at the sight of the entourage."I'm asking you now. Where are Dahlia and Dustin?" Gloria hissed through gritted teeth."They haven't been back since the morning. I have no idea where they went!" Florence replied meekly."You have no idea? Are you trying to h

Was the bodyguard made of steel? Even a knife could not penetrate his skin!"Hmph! Cougar is a martial artist who's at the height of internal energy cultivation. Do you seriously think you can hurt him with that toy knife of yours?" Dakota scoffed in disdain. Gloria had called in the two martial arts experts who worked for her to make up for her loss of dignity earlier. No matter how powerful Dustin was, he was destined to be defeated."Get lost!" With a slap, Cougar subdued Florence. Gloria strutted up arrogantly and rested her walking stick on Florence's face, saying, "I'm giving you a chance to get Dahlia and Dustin to come home. If you don't, I'll break the legs of your son!""Have mercy on me! I'll make the call right now!" Florence frantically scrambled for her phone and called Dahlia, specifically reminding her daughter to bring Dustin home as well. However, she kept the reason from Dahlia, fearing that Dustin wouldn't show up. That would only land the whole family in greater

Edwin pulled the trigger, sending a bullet in Gloria's direction. At the life-or-death moment, the bulky Cougar positioned himself to shield her, arms crossed over his chest in a protective stance. At the same time, two heavy metal rings slid out of his sleeve.The sound of metal clanking was accompanied by flying sparks as the bullet was sent flying astray after it came into contact with the metal rings. Cougar sneered as he stood in front of Gloria like a mountain. He clearly did not fear Edwin. Bullets from an average pistol were not a threat when he was at the height of internal energy cultivation, thanks to his speedy response in comparison to that of an average shooter. He could either dodge the bullet or stop it with his weapons. It was impossible to hurt him as long as it wasn't an ambush from the back, and that was the power of a trained martial artist!"D—did he stop the bullet?" Florence was shocked once more. At that point, they wondered if Cougar was even human for blo

The short guy grinned as he flung Cougar's body against the wall, where the body left a bloody trail."Cougar!" Tarragon hugged the body of his little brother and seethed in vengeance. "How dare you kill my brother? I'll tear you into pieces!" Then, he lunged at the short guy like a crazed beast, only to have the short guy kick him in the chest.Tarragon seemed to have been run over by a truck. He was flung aside and fell hard onto the ground, where he coughed up blood. His rib had collapsed.The Nicholsons gasped at the second casualty. They knew that Tarragon was way stronger than Cougar, but even the elder brother was defeated after an attack from the short guy. That left them wondering about his origins."W—who exactly are you?" Tarragon pressed on his chest as blood oozed from his nose and mouth. He knew his opponent must have been a divine-level martial artist to win with just a move."I'm Hillcrest, a gold-tier assassin in the Bounty League." The short guy grinned widely.
