After losing fifty million dollars in the stock market, Amara was dejected. The mood in the Wyatt family villa was bad. Fifty million dollars was not a small sum to the Wyatt family. Although it would not make a huge impact on their finances, it had shaken the strong foundations of Amara’s confidence. To a strong woman like her, this was a huge shock. The Zimmer family had not let them go and were still preparing to move against the Wyatt family. The Wyatt sisters were all discouraged and did not have the energy to deal with the problem. Seeing how dejected her sisters were, Clara frowned. She made some arrangements by temporarily using Amara’s powers to get the company’s staff to make preparations to nullify the Zimmer family’s attacks. She was very capable, but she was exhausted for the next several days. Clara wondered how things had come to this. She quickly came to a realization. “Dustin Fox…” she muttered. Clara was different from her sisters. She was very

To Dustin, what happened earlier that day was only a small disruption. That night, he accompanied Simone in her room as she handled some documents. The day they had to deliver the goods was getting closer, so Simone was very busy. Dustin frowned. “Simone, I’m going outside for a moment,” he said. Then, he left the villa. Outside the villa, there was a dark figure standing tall at night. The person’s face was hidden. His gaze was fierce, and he carried with him the potential for violence. Dustin looked at him calmly. “Shadow Two, under whose orders have you come here?” he asked. This was one of the nine elites the Wyatt family had trained. He was Shadow Two. Last time, Drake had killed Shadow One. Naturally, it did not bode well that Shadow Two had shown up at this point. Shadow Two was more powerful than Shadow One. “I am here on the orders of Miss Clara,” Shadow Two said. His voice sounded icy. Dustin frowned. The Shadows had been trained by the head

The art exhibit was being held at Rivenesco Convention Center. This was a huge event, and there were many renowned artists involved. The most exceptional of them was Rivenesco’s shining gem, Clara Wyatt. She was accomplished in calligraphy, painting, and writing, and her works were accepted as exhibits in Lovellia’s international museums. She was very well-known. Moreover, she was a beauty in her own right, and with her background as a descendant of many renowned figures, she had become a uniquely sought-after rising star in the art world.In this art exhibition, the other people were just there to fill out the numbers. She was the star of the show. On the day of the exhibition, many people who admired her attended the venue. Clara’s fans were everywhere. She may not have been a celebrity, but she had more fame and popularity than some A-list actors and actresses. That day, Dustin brought Simone to the convention center. Clara obviously did not have any good intention

“Ms. Langley, it’s truly a shame that we didn’t meet sooner. My name is Michael Carson. I’m from Central Harbor’s Carson family. I wonder if you would be kind enough to add me on Facebook?” the young man in the lead asked. He was handsome and had a wealthy background. Most women were not able to resist such charms. Simone looked shocked. “Central Harbor’s Carson family?” She was quite surprised. The Carson family was one of Lovellia’s most powerful families, much more powerful than those in Rivenesco. Yet, Simone still refused him. “I apologize, but my friend list is at its limit.” Michael and his friends froze. “Let’s go, Dustin,” Simone said as she took Dustin’s hand. “Ms. Langley, it’s always good to have more friends…” Michael did not give up. He raised his hand to block their way. The more Simone turned him down, the more he wanted to win her over. Dustin’s gaze turned sharp. “Get out of the way!” he said. The faces of the three darkened. They were al

“Dustin, stop!” Clara rushed into the hall with some men. She saw that Dustin was about to attack Michael again. Dustin looked at her indifferently. “You finally showed up.” She ran over and had someone help Michael up. “How dare you? How dare you attack someone from Central Harbor?” Her face was cold as she yelled at Dustin openly. She behaved just like she did back home. “I’m ordering you to apologize to Mr. Carson now!” Her tone left no room for argument. It was a tone of voice that Dustin was very familiar with. He had heard it all the time growing up in the Wyatt family. “Have you lost your mind, Clara?” Dustin sneered. “Do you think things are still the same as they used to be? I’m no longer part of the Wyatt family. You were the ones who kicked me out. You still think you can boss me around?” Clara’s face stiffened. Then, her gaze turned cold. “I’m trying to save your life by asking you to apologize to Mr. Carson right now!” she said coldly. “The Carson fam

With the Carson family’s power, Michael could easily torment Dustin so much that he would die from a single onslaught. “Dustin, you’d better come along quietly. It’s a bigger crime if you resist arrest. You might be able to escape capture, but that pretty woman next to you won’t. She and the whole Langley family will be considered accomplices to your crime!” Clara added. Clara knew that Dustin was a formidable fighter and could defeat even Shadow Two. The only way to hurt such a person was to threaten the people he cared about. “I’m disappointed in you, Clara Wyatt,” Dustin said while shaking his head. “I thought you’d come up with some strategic feat, but your methods are so low.” Clara’s face turned stormy. “What’s the point of saying all that?” she asked sarcastically. “You might as well think about how you’re going to survive the trip to the border.” She believed that she had cornered Dustin into an impossible situation. If Dustin resisted capture and tried to escape,

The entire hall was silent. Many of the attendees were still in shock as they looked at Dustin. Who exactly was Dustin? Clara’s expression shifted from rage to uncertainty. Then, she smiled. She said to the crowd warmly, “Everyone, the charity auction is about to begin! Please take your seats.” The art exhibition had a very important auction session. It was the charity auction that Clara had mentioned. Clara organized the event and called for other famous artists to contribute their works to the event. This attracted a lot of attention from the media. Everyone praised Clara online for being beautiful inside and out. It had added to her acclaim. However, Dustin knew very well just how kind Clara really was. She did not actually care about people who were in difficult situations. All she cared about was her reputation. “A month ago, there was an earthquake in East Lovellia. Countless people were displaced. I feel like crying every time I read the news about it…” Clar

Was this why Clara had given Dustin VIP diamond tickets? Clara smiled playfully. When Dustin had been kicked out of the family, he had been penniless. He was unable to bring any of the Wyatt family’s valuables with him. Clara was sure that Dustin did not have much money with him. She wanted to humiliate Dustin in public. “VIP diamond tickets? That’s a higher tier than mine!” Michael looked upset. The other attendees were also disheartened. They were people from high society. However, they were unable to get VIP diamond tickets to this event. Who exactly was Dustin? Why did he have better tickets than everyone else? “If you bid on something at least, that would be such an embarrassment.” Everyone watched to see how Dustin would react. Dustin chuckled as Clara looked at him mockingly. “I bid twenty thousand dollars,” he said. Whispers came from the crowd. How could someone with such exclusive tickets bid so low? “Haha, I’ll bid ten million dollars!” Michael s
