Chapter 1753

Penulis: Marina Vittori
"Even if I can't handle it, isn't the Prince of West Lucozia there for such matters? Their influence can't possibly overshadow the West Lucozian monarchy, can it?" Dustin asked.

Lucas wore a mournful expression.

"It's not as straightforward as you might think. Those bullies have deep ties with high-ranking officials and the West Lucozian monarchy. It's not just socially but their interests also intertwine. No one is brave enough to touch them."

Dustin frowned.

"Shouldn't the prince take action against such individuals?"

Considering Rufus' character, it was highly unlikely that he would tolerate such incidents.

Lucas shook his head.

"The prince is overwhelmed with his duties, and these corrupt officials cover up such ugly deeds. The prince is unlikely to be aware, let alone have the chance to seek justice for us."

"I never imagined West Lucozia would deteriorate to this extent," Dustin remarked, his expression darkening.

As the Crown Prince of West Lucozia, Dustin found him

    The bullet missed the thug but struck the ground near his feet, sending up sparks. He scrambled backward in terror, rolling and crawling to get away. The other thugs froze at the sudden gunfire, staring in uncertainty at Natasha with the pistol in her hand. None of them dared move closer."Dear, are you okay?" she asked, rushing forward and keeping the gun trained on the thugs.Dustin leaned against the overpass railing, breathing hard. He wiped blood from the corner of his mouth and waved her off."I'm fine. It's just a scratch."Natasha looked at his battered state and noticed his movements were not as sharp as before. Something wasn't adding up, so she asked, "You used to handle guys like them easily. Why are you struggling now?"Dustin smiled wryly. He didn't see a point in hiding from her anymore and said, "I can no longer use my cultivation. I'm no different from an ordinary person now.""What?" Her eyes widened in disbelief. "How did that happen?""It's a long story. I'

    "Ram them," Dustin said decisively.Natasha understood immediately. There was a sharp glint in her eyes as she floored the gas and drove straight at Gilbert and his men.Gilbert was startled and quickly jumped out of the way. Two of his men weren't fast enough and got knocked to the ground.She shifted the gear into reverse and floored the gas again, scattering the group before backing straight into the cars blocking the intersection. The impact knocked the blocking vehicle to the side, opening a path.Their plan worked. Without hesitation, Natasha spun the wheel and executed a perfect drift. The car sped through the opening and off into the distance."Dammit! Go after them. Don't let them get away," Gilbert roared, scrambling to his feet. He was covered in grime and shaking with fury.Frederick crushed his cigar under his heel and got into his car, his expression grim.Engines roared as eight vans took off after the fleeing red sports car. A high-speed chase through the streets

    "Ms. Nicholson, you're back," Natasha said, looking up with a bright smile. "We were just finishing up. The food here was great. Thank you for the recommendation."The way she phrased it positioned herself and Dustin as a pair, with Dahlia as the outsider.Dahlia managed a strained smile. "I'm glad you enjoyed it."She glanced at Dustin. Whatever faint hope she'd had of talking to him alone withered under Natasha's sharp look and his blank expression."I have a meeting this evening, so I should get going," Dahlia said, grabbing her handbag and rising to her feet. "The bill's taken care of.""Oh, we couldn't possibly let you pay for everything," Natasha said apologetically, but her expression showed no such concern."It's just a meal. Don't worry about it," Dahlia responded, her eyes on Dustin.Something unreadable flickered in her face before she simply said, "Take care, Dustin."He nodded, his expression uncharged. "You too."They exchanged no further pleasantries. The apolog

    "Ms. Nicholson, don't just sit there. The beef is delicious. You should try some," Natasha said.She seemed to have just noticed Dahlia sitting there in silence. Her tone was warm, but her smile carried a hint of triumph."Thank you," Dahlia replied, looking up and forcing a smile. She picked up a slice of beef, but her throat felt tight, and she could barely swallow. She tried to find something to say, both to break the awkward silence and to satisfy her curiosity about what Dustin had been doing lately."I heard you were away for a long time recently. Were you handling something important?"Before he could answer, Natasha cut in. Her tone held both pride and a clear assertion of her knowledge of his whereabouts."You're right. My man is very capable. He was dealing with some very important matters and even saved the King. Isn't that right, dear?"She placed another piece of meat on Dustin's plate while she spoke.Dahlia's stomach dropped. She'd always known Dustin was extrao

    The diners kept their chatter to a whisper, but Dustin's sharp hearing still caught every word. He didn't let it bother him.Natasha, however, seemed to enjoy the attention. The envious glances from the other women only made her feel more pleased with herself. She kept serving him food or refilling his water with deliberate affection.Dahlia sat across from them with her usual aloofness, acting as if the whispers didn't exist. But when she glanced at the pair, her expression faltered for a moment.Just then, a young server approached, carrying a sizzling-hot platter of barbecue. He must have been distracted by the two stunning ladies and accidentally tripped."Oh no!" he yelped, stumbling.The sizzling platter lurched in his grip, tipping toward Dahlia and Natasha at the edge of the table. Both women's faces turned pale. Dustin, who'd been sitting quietly until now, reacted instantly. He lunged forward, grabbed the server with one hand, and caught the platter with the other.Wi

    "What a coincidence, Ms. Nicholson." Natasha's tone was cool and distant. "Though staring at my husband like that seems a bit inappropriate, don't you think?""Husband?" Dahlia snapped out of her daze and composed herself, her face returning to its usual calm detachment. She smiled faintly with a hint of skepticism. "Ms. Harmon, if I recall correctly, you're not married. Where did this husband come from?"Natasha had expected this question. She immediately wrapped her arm around Dustin's and pressed her body intimately against him.Tilting her face up toward her, she declared, "He is my husband. We're getting our marriage license tomorrow."The announcement caught Dahlia off guard, creating a ripple of unease beneath her composed exterior. Her smile stiffened just slightly as her eyes moved back to Dustin, and something unreadable flickered across her face. She took a moment before responding, keeping her voice neutral."Well then, congratulations to you both.""Thank you,
