Over at the banquet hall, Dahlia was puzzled when she saw Julie panting as she entered. “Didn’t you say that you were waiting for a friend, Julie? Where’s your friend?”“Something came up and she couldn’t make it.”She smiled sheepishly. “Oh, Dahlia, could you lend me your compact mirror, please? I need to fix my makeup.”“I remembered that you’ve brought one yourself,” Dahlia said.“Mine’s faulty. I’d prefer to use yours.” Without waiting for a reply, Julie took Dahlia’s bag and fished around in it.Dahlia was annoyed by that. She had to admit, her cousin was really a spoiled brat who lacked manners.“Thanks, Dahlia.” Julie tossed Dahlia’s bag back to her after she managed to get the compact mirror out. Then, she made up some excuse to go to the washroom.Right at that moment, Tina made her entrance, followed by a crowd behind her, creating a ruckus in the banquet hall.In the end, she stopped smack in the middle of the hall.“Quiet down, everyone. I have an announcement to make.” Tin
"You whore! How dare you seduce my boyfriend? I’ll make your life a living hell!"Tina kept forcing the wine on Dahlia, humiliating her before the crowd.She was rough and ruthless.By the time the bottle of wine was emptied, Dahlia had slumped to the ground helplessly.Even then, Tina did not stop. She grabbed a fistful of Dahlia’s hair and pulled her head up.Then, a torrent of slaps rained down on Dahlia, each one harder than the one before."You slut! You whore! How dare you mess with my boyfriend? How dare you?" Tina shouted as she roughed Dahlia up, almost in a frenzy.When Tina finally stopped, Dahlia’s face was swollen and blotched, with streaks of blood coming out the corner of her mouth."Why? Why?" Dahlia asked breathlessly, trying to regain her bearings."You have the audacity to ask why? Are you unaware of what you have done, you bitch!" Tina reached for Dahlia’s hair again and slammed her head hard to the ground.Blood gushed out immediately. A mixture of blood and wine d
The sky started to rain.At that moment, the atmosphere at the party in Emperor Hotel was lively as usual. The commotion earlier clearly had not affected the party.Tina looked like a princess, surrounded by people. Everyone approached her to leave a good impression.Yet, most of the people did not interest her. Only a few distinguished guests were worthy of chatting with her."Miss, Mr. Williams and Mr. Chapman are here." One of the butlers came up to her and reported.Tina turned around and saw two fine-looking men who were standing quietly at the entrance of the party.One of them was Oliver from Boulderthorn!The other was Oliver’s senior, Troy Chapman. Behind the two of them were two bodyguards."Mr. Williams, Mr. Chapman. It's good to see you again." Tina immediately gave them a warm welcome with a smile."Happy birthday, Ms. Hummer." Oliver and Troy presented their gifts respectively."Oh, please. It is my honor to have you both as my guests. There’s no need for presen
"He dared to hit Ms. Hummer? He must be asking for death!""He’s out of his mind! He’s definitely gone insane!""He struck Ms. Hummer in front of such a crowd! Not even the Gods could spare him now!"Because of Dustin’s actions, the whole room went into chaos. Some were shocked, not knowing how to react. Others were impressed, while the rest were in disbelief. For all their lives, they'd believed that only a person like Tina Hummer could bully others. They could never even imagine someone who would strike back!"Kill him! Kill him now!" When Tina stood up again, she was in a frenzy. Her face contorted with terrifying rage."Kill! Him!"The guards in the area finally returned to their senses and charged toward him with a baton.Dustin was unfazed. He moved at the speed of light, defeating each guard with a single punch, sending them flying across the room in all directions.He glided through the entire fight effortlessly, not a single hint of struggle showing on his face. The
“You dare to hit someone from Boulderthorn? You must be tired of living!” Troy’s gaze immediately turned cold and unfriendly.Troy and Oliver were as close as brothers, and any harm inflicted upon one was seen as an affront to the other.“Save me! Save me!” Tina's eyes lit up with hope at the sight of Oliver and Troy, and she suddenly regained some of her energy.“Don’t worry, Ms. Hummer. With me and Oliver here, this guy won’t be able to harm you!” Troy assured confidently.As soon as he finished speaking, Dustin delivered another brutal slap, causing Tina to be flung across the table.Without a second of hesitation, he immediately proved him wrong.“You—!” Oliver was furious.He was caught off guard by Dustin's unpredictable actions, causing a slight delay in his response.“You bastard! You’re dead meat! Your entire family will be dead! These two are the best fighters in Boulderthorn. You’re just a piece of trash in front of them! I’ll let them break all of your limbs before
"Holy Shit! What just happened?"The crowd was once again in awe upon seeing the broken swords and the two women laying on the floor.They originally thought that Dustin was out of luck, but no one expected that after that face-off, the Boulderthorn girls would be the ones who faced defeat.This outcome shocked everyone in the room."This kid was not all talk?" Oliver’s eye twitched, his face full of shock.The previous time, he could argue and say that they weren’t prepared for the attack. But this time, it was proven that there was a skill disparity."So you do have some tricks up your sleeves. No wonder you dared to cause trouble here." Troy narrowed his eyes as his lips curled into a playful smile.Although Anna and Emma were no match for Troy’s skills, they were certainly enough to defeat a normal fighter. For Dustin to have defeated them so easily spoke volumes about his abilities, even if it wasn't much for Troy."Mr. Williams! Didn’t you say that it wouldn’t be a proble
"Whoosh!" Troy felt a strong gust of wind hit his face, causing his features to contort in pain as he could feel his bone becoming dislocated.His eyes were fixed on Dustin’s fist, which stopped right in front of his chest. Although it was still a few inches away, the intimidating force still caused him to tremble in fear."Blargh!" Blood spurted from his mouth. With just the sheer force of his Fist Energy, Dustin had the power to dislocate the bones in Troy's body. The thought of what would have happened if his fists had actually landed on him was almost too terrifying to contemplate.He was lucky that he had kneeled in time. Otherwise, he would’ve been out cold!"Spare me! Please!" Troy was now on his knees, his face drained of color as he begged frantically. All the confidence he had earlier was gone, replaced by fear and desperation.Rather than shock, Troy was feeling terrified at the moment.That was because when their fists collided, his power shattered like glass in a s
The rain was falling even harder.Edwin was in the middle of a conversation with Fletcher at the Hummer Villa."Mr. Hummer, the first batch of Eternumax has been sold out. On top of that, we received a lot of positive feedback. A lot of people are interested in partnering with us in the long term. Now, we’ll be able to mass produce this product!" Fletcher reported excitedly."That’s the secret recipe for you, alright. Who would’ve thought it would have such great feedback right after its debut?" Edwin laughed joyfully.He originally thought that it would take a while for people to warm up to the product. He didn't expect the opportunity to present itself so quickly.At that point, he must strike the iron while it's hot. "Speaking of which, we should be grateful to the Harmon family. Without their painstaking research all these years, we wouldn't have this baby in our hands right now." Fletcher grinned."Natasha was foolish to dare to fight against me! I'll defeat her once and f
