"Hello, is this Mr. Langford? Dahlia has something to say to you." Florence shoved the phone to Dahlia as soon as the call got through. "Dahlia? Let me know if you need any help. I'll definitely get it done if I can," a voice drawled. "It's me, Mr. Langford," Dahlia responded stiffly. "I'll get to the point. I have a friend who's in trouble and has been arrested by the military. I hope you can help me save him." "Arrested by the military? Your friend must be into hot water," Luis guessed arrogantly. "I wouldn't have turned to you if I had another choice," Dahlia responded tiredly. "What's your friend's name?" "Dustin Rhys." "Alright. I'll help you on one condition." "What is it?" "Treat me to dinner tonight," Luis responded frankly. "Um …" Dahlia stiffened, instantly understanding what he meant. "You won't refuse such a small request, would you?" Luis teased half-jokingly. "Of course not." Dahlia forced a smile. "It's nothing compared to what you're willing to h

"I was, but I'm already divorced," Dustin answered straightforwardly. "Aw, damn!" Adam grinned. "If that's the case, my sister finally has a chance! I'll be your brother-in-law soon." "Get lost!" Dustin rolled his eyes. "What kind of brother are you? Why would you throw your sister under the bus?" "She threw herself in!" Adam retorted in exasperation. "You have no idea how much she bugged me after finding out that you were still alive. She would have flown back for you if the war hadn't broken out at the border.""Has Scarlet been well?" Dustin suddenly asked. "You're still worried about her? That kid's been practicing martial arts since young, and with her talent, she's already a grandmaster. I can't even win against her anymore. Who would dare to cross her?" Adam responded nervously. All his life, Adam has only ever been afraid of two people–Dustin, the person who's been throwing punches at him since they were kids, and his sister Scarlet. He always lost his dignity when i

Dustin never expected to run into Dahlia there. Worse, she was accompanied by another man, and it seemed like those two were on a date. It irked him for some reason. He had just been captured by the military, his life in danger, but here Dahlia was, carefree and relaxed, as she went on a date with another man. It was clear that Dahlia didn't give a damn about him, and it made him feel like a fool."Do you know that lady?" Adam quickly caught onto the change in mood and asked. "Yeah. She's my ex-wife." Dustin answered bluntly. "Your ex-wife?" Adam's lips twitched. "Why don't we go somewhere else?" No one would be happy to see their ex-wife happily chatting away with another man. "Forget it. I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I be afraid?" Dustin lifted his glass to his lips and swallowed a mouthful of wine resentfully. Just then, Dahlia and Luis arrived on the second floor, and the woman immediately spotted the two men. "Dustin? What are you doing here?" she exclaime

"Just friends, eh? Then you won't mind going home with me right this instant!" Dustin snapped. "But …" Dahlia frowned and glanced at Dustin and Luis, troubled. Although she didn't have any feelings for Luis, the man had helped her, so it wouldn't be right to turn her back on him now. "What's wrong? You don't want to?" Dustin sneered. "Is this what you call an ordinary friend? How am I supposed to believe you?" Dustin couldn't believe that Dahlia was still hesitating. It seemed that he was even less important than her ordinary friends, and here he thought that their relationship had been improving. It must have been his imagination. "Forget it, Ms. Nicholson. You don't have to think about it so hard. We're nothing to each other now. Enjoy your meal. I'll be taking my leave." Dustin shook his head and turned around. "Wait for me." Grabbing two bottles, Adam hurried after Dustin. He didn't have any experience when it came to love, so he couldn't help Dustin. After stepping out

"Watch out!" As the truck headed toward them, Dahlia's immediate reaction was to push Dustin away, completely disregarding her safety. Realizing that she had nowhere else to escape to, she instinctively shut her eyes tightly. Right then, she came to a realization that it might not necessarily be a bad thing to die like this. At least he would remember for the rest of his life. As her eyes closed, a strong figure dashed forward and put itself in front of her. With an ear-splitting boom, a fist landed on the front of the truck, and metal bent under the force. The sudden opposing force upturned the entire truck, flipping it around, and the truck landed on the ground behind Dahlia with a crash, debris flying in all directions. "Are you okay, Dahlia?" Dustin drew his hand back and quickly surveyed the woman for any injuries before letting out a breath of relief. "What in the world happened?" Dahlia's eyes were opened wide as she gaped at the empty space in front of her before turnin

"What?" Joshua stared at his sister's body incredulously. He never thought that Dustin would be so ruthless, killing without warning. "Anything else you want to say?" Dustin calmly asked. "D-don't kill me! Please don't kill me!" Joshua fell to his knees, begging. "I was an idiot to offend you. Please forgive me. I swear I won't go against you ever again!" "You had your chance, but you didn't appreciate it." Dustin's face was void of any sympathy. "N-no. I do. I promise! Please! I'm still young. I don't want to die! Just let me go. I'll do anything you want. I swear!" Joshua began ramming his forehead into the floor. He wasn't able to win against Dustin when he was in peak condition, so why would he have a winning chance now? For Dustin, killing Joshua would be as easy as killing an ant. "I'm pretty sure that's not what you said just now." Dustin sneered. "Didn't you say that you were going to make me suffer like never before after you recovered?" "N-no, I didn't!" Joshua

"Well done. Well done, indeed!" Edwin laughed boisterously. "This Substratumis may be expensive, but it's definitely worth the price!" While he was still chortling away, another bodyguard rushed into the room anxiously. "Sir, something bad happened back home!" The guard fell to his knees, weeping. "What?" Edwin frowned. "We just received news from Swinton that Hummer Villa turned into a slaughterhouse last night. All of our fighters are dead, and Ms. Hummer and Mr. Hummer were both killed as well. The Hummer family is gone!" These words struck Edwin like lightning, and the Substratumis in his hand crashed to the floor, shattering instantly. "Son!" Edwin wailed mournfully, collapsing to the floor. The devastated man stayed on the floor for what felt like ages. When he finally staggered to his feet, he seemed to have aged ten years, looking extremely haggard. "Get ready. I want to head to Boulderthorn's branch right this instant!" Edwin seethed menacingly. He no longer had

Meanwhile, in Park Place, Swinton. "What? Joshua Hummer is dead, and his entire family was massacred? They even burned Hummer Villa down to the ground?" Jessica, who had been relaxing a second ago, sobered when she heard her guard's report. The Hummer family was well known for being the top family in Swinton. While it couldn't win against the Harmon family, it was still a force to be reckoned with, especially with Boulderthorn's support. So who could be powerful enough to destroy that family? "Do you know who did it?" Jessica pushed. "The fire burned almost everything. It'll be difficult to trace the source." The guard shook his head. "We'll be in trouble if we can't find the culprit!" Jessica frowned, pondering. Under normal circumstances, she'd be over the moon to learn that the Hummer family was gone. However, most people now knew that the Hummer family and her daughter had something against each other, so Natasha would naturally become the prime suspect. What Jessica fear
