"Marriage?" Dahlia frowned immediately upon hearing this. They had just met today, and she barely knew anything about "Rhett". Even if he had saved her life, agreeing to a marital commitment was a big jump. It was evident from Anders' words that he saw her as a tool, a commodity that was up for sale. It made her extremely uncomfortable."Anders, marriage is a serious matter. You shouldn't treat it lightly," Seamus raised an eyebrow."Godfather, Mr. Adams and Dahlia are a match made in heaven. Coupled with his heroic actions, they seemed destined for each other. If they got engaged today, it would undoubtedly be a doubly joyous occasion," Anders advised."Dahlia, what do you think?" Instead of giving a direct answer, Seamus turned to Dahlia for her opinion."Godfather, I'm extremely grateful to Mr. Adams for saving me, but to repay him with marriage is something I just cannot bring myself to do." Dahlia shook her head gently."Dahlia, marriage is often decided by the parents. I

"Alright, since both of them are unwilling, let's drop the matter," Seamus finally spoke. "Young man, you're not only courageous but also possess an outstanding character. Your unwavering commitment to your principles is truly admirable. If you encounter trouble in the future, don't hesitate to reach out to me.""Thank you, Sir Mosey!" Dustin immediately expressed his gratitude with a bow.Dahlia sighed in relief. At the same time, she became curious about the seemingly ordinary man before her. Even though she wasn't one to rely on her appearance, being rejected was an unfamiliar experience. Unknowingly, she felt a twinge of jealousy as she thought about the man's fiancée. It wasn't easy to find such a capable and devoted man. "I hope you won't regret your choice," Anders said in a lowered voice, his gaze growing more hostile. Dustin had inadvertently disrupted two of his plans in a row. What a stroke of misfortune! His hatred for him would not be resolved until he was dealt

"Dustin, since we got what we came for, should we leave now?" Abigail asked."There's no need to rush." Dustin shook his head."If we leave too soon, it might raise suspicion. Let's stay a little while longer. We'll leave when someone leaves.""Alright, there's plenty to eat and drink anyway, and there's performances to watch. And it's all free. I think it's a shame to leave now too." Abigail chuckled.With so many delicacies and fine drinks, they would have to spend tens of thousands of dollars for it themselves. But they could enjoy it all for free here. It was indeed a luxurious experience."Mr. Adams …" Dahlia suddenly approached them with a smile."Thank you for saving my life earlier. If it wasn't for you, I would have been killed by the Onyxclaw. This is a small gift of my appreciation. I hope you'll accept it." As she spoke, she took out an emerald badge and handed it to Dustin with both hands.The back of the emerald badge was exquisitely carved with dragons and phoen

"Your perfume smells strange." Abigail sniffed before she spoke unexpectedly. "Really?" Dahlia sniffed but didn't notice anything unusual."I'm using a regular perfume that many people use too.""It's not the perfume that's the problem. Someone added something to your perfume, probably a hint of blood." Abigail took another sniff and concluded. "You're right." Dustin nodded in agreement. "It would be difficult for an ordinary person to detect the faint scent of blood, but animals have a unique advantage in this regard. The Onyxclaw must have sensed it.""I see." Dahlia nodded in realization.No wonder the Onyxclaw turned aggressive the moment it approached. It turned out that someone had tampered with her perfume."Rhett … I have another question." Abigail tapped her chin thoughtfully and asked, "You mentioned earlier that the Onyxclaw is an intelligent creature. It's also been tamed. It shouldn't have turned so aggressive if it had just been a hint of blood, right?""Th

"Robbed?" The crowd exchanged looks of disbelief upon hearing this. Who could be so bold as to steal something from the Moseys' mansion? Were they not afraid of losing their lives?"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm very sorry for being this rude, but the missing item is important to me. Please forgive me." Anders first apologized to the crowd before continuing, "I will now conduct a search with my hunting dogs. I kindly request that everyone stand where you are to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings."After speaking, he made a gesture, instructing his subordinates to secure all entrances and exits. Then, two well-trained hunting dogs arrived, and the inspection began. Even though his actions had crossed a line, nobody dared speak out due to his identity. They could only cooperate obediently."Conduct a thorough search. Don't miss any corner!" Anders commanded with a stern voice.He had returned to his room to rest, only to find his Emerald Corolla missing. This precious rare treas

Even though she knew the man before her was out for her life, she showed no signs of it. "The bigger picture?" Anders' gave her a contemptuous gaze. "Does someone like you understand what a big picture is? Other than Godfather, I have the final say in everything in this house! That is the bigger picture!""Perhaps you have the power and influence, but that doesn't mean you have the right to act recklessly. After all, Godfather is still the one in charge here." Dahlia stood her ground."Haha … Alright, very well!" Anders suddenly laughed, but his gaze was cold. "Dahlia, you truly are smart. That's probably why Godfather values you. Unfortunately, people like you usually don't live long. Take care of yourself."Upon saying that, he patted Dahlia's shoulder and walked away. How dare a powerless woman challenge him? She was digging her own grave!"Ms. Nicholson, you probably have angered Anders for backing us up. I'm afraid you'll have a harder life going forward," Dustin warned.

Upon returning to the villa, Dustin began to make the necessary preparations.He had finally gathered all three precious herbs needed. The rest of the supplementary herbs were prepared beforehand. Next, it was time for the most crucial step—producing Sanctifix. "Maximus, I'll be locked up in there for a day. You need to keep watch vigilantly. No one is to enter and bother me," Dustin reminded."Don't worry, Dustin. Not even a fly will be able to enter these doors!" Maximus guaranteed with a confident pat on his chest.Dustin nodded before looking over at Brooke. "Dr. Busch, I'll leave Mr. Shaffer in your hands then. Nothing must happen to him before I come out of the room.""Rest assured. I might not be able to cure Mr. Shaffer, but I'm fully capable of keeping him alive for some time," Brooke assured. "Great. I'll leave things to the both of you then." Dustin gave them simple instructions and wasted no more time on words before entering the makeshift alchemy room.He had all

"Do you smell that, Max?" Brooke seemed to sense something, and he took a deep breath."You mean the herbal scent?" Maximus tilted his head curiously. "It's been there all along, hasn't it? What's wrong?""No, it's different now. It's quite special." Brooke went up to the door of the alchemy room. Then, he crouched down to catch a whiff of the scent wafting out from the gap under the door. He spent most of his time around herbs. Thus, he could easily detect the slightest change in scent.All of a sudden, the door creaked open.Dustin was just about to step out of the room when he spotted Brooke crouching on the ground in a weird position. "Dr. Busch, what's wrong? Are you having a stomachache?" "Uhh …" Brooke smiled sheepishly before quickly reacting. He promptly asked, "Dustin, how is it? Did you succeed in producing Sanctifix?"Dustin sighed and put on a dejected expression when he heard that.At the sight of Dustin in such a state, Brooke froze and paled. "You f-failed?" h
