Chapter 196

Author: Autumn Rain
Irene’s body went limp, and Dustin caught her.

He loosened her bindings.

Looking at the vicious cut on Irene’s face, Dustin’s heart ached.

If he was right, Irene’s face was ruined forever. For a beautiful woman, it took great courage and determination to go as far as to disfigure herself…

But to avoid being a burden on him, Irene had made that choice without hesitation. She had been willing to die.

Dustin did not know why she would do something like that.

Was she that loyal because she was from the West family? Or was it because she was grateful that Dustin had helped her in her time of need?

Whatever the reason, Dustin was moved by her actions.

“Why are you so foolish?” Dustin asked as he held her.

“Because… I didn’t want to burden you…” Irene said weakly.

Dustin was speechless.

Beside them, Bianca’s expression shifted several times before she gathered herself and took a few steps back. She quietly sneaked out of the house.

She no longer had any trump card

    Suddenly, a flash of cold light appeared before Bianca’s eyes. In the next moment, Bianca felt her world spin, and everything turned black. With a thud, her head rolled on the ground. The last thing Bianca saw before she died was the retreating silhouette of a Hell Guard as he sheathed his knife. She never imagined that she would lose her life while seeking revenge for her cousins. Dustin returned to the small house. Irene was quietly waiting in the chair he had left her. “You’re back…” Irene smiled when she saw Dustin. Her voice was gentle. Dustin leaned down and caressed her face. “Don’t worry. Give me three days, and I’ll make sure your face heals perfectly,” he said reassuringly. “I believe you,” said Irene with a smile. Dustin had managed to bring her grandfather back to life. How hard would it be to get rid of a scar? “I’m sorry. You wouldn’t have gone through all this if it weren’t for me,” Dustin said apologetically. After all, it was his ov

    In the living room of the Wyatt family villa in Rivenesco were Amara and Elisa. Sitting opposite them was their aunt, Margaret. Elisa kept trying to call Bianca, but she did not answer. “She’s still not answering…” Elisa sighed. She had no choice but to give up. “Could something have happened to Bianca?” she asked worriedly. “Bianca’s smart. She usually has several backup plans. I’m sure she won’t be in too much trouble,” Margaret said confidently. “Dustin is just someone the Wyatt family kicked out. He doesn’t have what it takes to force Bianca into a corner. Let me contact the Winter family. They should be able to find something out.” Margaret contacted the Winter family right after. “Miss Bianca asked for some of the family’s fighters. But we’re unable to contact her at this time,” said someone from the other end. Margaret’s face darkened. “How long ago was that?” she asked. “She has not contacted us since 3 p.m. yesterday.” Margaret, Amara, and Elisa’s

    The man was young and handsome, and he carried himself very charismatically. The moment he showed up, many of the young women in the airport focused on him. “He must be very important if officers in Lannopolis have to welcome him personally,” someone said in shock. The person had noticed that there were some familiar faces in the group that were there to welcome him. When the man got out of the gate, the people who were there to welcome him immediately went over to flatter him. However, they were kept away by the men in black and white uniforms. Elisa beamed and walked over. “Who are you? Get out of the way! Move!” said someone who was leading the way for the very important man. “Timothy Bones! It’s been far too long,” said Elisa. The young man looked at Elisa. When he recognized her, he smiled as well. “Indeed. Far too long…” Timothy said. All those gathered around looked surprised when they heard the conversation. “He’s from the Bones family!” “The Bones famil

    Timothy and Elisa arrived at the Cain family villa in Lannopolis. Instead of going to the hotel arranged for Timothy by Lannopolis’s government officials, they had come here straight away. The motorcade stopped at the entrance to the villa, and Timothy and Elisa got out of the car. They headed straight for the front door of the villa. “May I ask who you are, esteemed guests? Please wait outside for a moment, and I will inform Mr. Cain of your arrival,” the guard at the door said politely. He could tell that these were important people. Timothy did not even glance at him. He led Elisa directly inside. “How dare you invade the home of a national hero? Shouldn’t you stop here?” The guard’s face was thunderous. “Preposterous! How dare you block the way of the Martial League Overseer? Do you want to die?” shouted one of the people escorting Timothy. “The Martial League Overseer?” The Cain family’s staff were all stunned for a moment, and no one dared to stop Timothy again

    Timothy looked intimidating and authoritative as he said that. It made Elisa admire him even more. There were only a few people who had the power to order a national hero around. Victor was livid. It was not enough that this young man was being rude and ordering him about. But he was expected to hunt Dustin down as well. Timothy wanted him to arrest Dustin? What a joke! He wanted to live for a while longer than that. “I apologize, but If it’s a matter of arresting him, I think you should get someone else to do it, Sir,” Victor said with a sour face. “How dare you disobey me when I have the Martial League’s Gold Token, Victor Cain?” Timothy shouted. He was incensed that he was being defied and humiliated. “No one in the Martial League would dare to disobey such an order,” Victor said with a sigh. “However, I’ve already resigned from the Martial League. Now, I’m just an old man who whiles away his days at home. Even if I wanted to, I am unable to do this for the Ma

    After leaving the Cain family villa, Timothy slammed his hand on a stone sculpture at the entrance. The sculpture that weighed a ton shattered. “F*ck him! I think he is intentionally disobeying me!” he said angrily. “I think so, too. Dustin’s not a threat. Victor is a legendary sovereign grade fighter, so there’s no way he’d be that afraid to arrest Dustin. Victor is just unhappy about being forced to listen to you!” Elisa said with a huff. “Before you came here, he was the most powerful person in Lannopolis. Even the higher-ups of the Martial League had to respect him. He must be displeased that you came here with the Martial League’s Gold Token to give him orders. That’s why he’s threatening to leave the Martial League.” Timothy was even more incensed when he heard that. He huffed. “F*ck him! Once I settle everything here, I’ll make sure he pays for this!” he said darkly. “Let’s go. We’re going to the local branch of the Martial League. I’m determined to try Dustin t

    “The Martial League Overseer has sent out a second level warrant for the criminal Dustin Fox. You must come to the branch headquarters of the Martial League immediately for trial!” one of them held out a warrant and said sharply. Everyone in the West family paled. The warrant issued by the Martial League was very powerful. Most people did not dare defy it. Those who obstructed the order would be sentenced for the same crime. “Who is Dustin Fox? Come out now and be arrested!” the leader of the group yelled. Dustin walked out with a cold expression. Irene had just been laid to bed, but these people were out here making such a commotion. He was annoyed. “You’re Dustin Fox? The Martial League Overseer has issued a second level warrant for your arrest. You must follow me to the trial now!” came another shout. Dustin calmly looked at the Hell Guard next to him. There was a whoosh, and the Hell Guard had already sent the leader of the group sprawling to the floor with a

    “How dare Dustin kill the members of the Martial League! He even dared to resist the order of a prime level warrant of arrest and destroy the Dragon Pendant of the Bones family!” Several people who had been called to the headquarters were greatly agitated and shocked by the news. “This is blatant disrespect toward Mr. Bones. How can he be so arrogant? What gives him such confidence?” they whispered. Timothy’s rage was growing uncontrollably. “He wants to die! He’s going to die ten times over!” Timothy said viciously. “Mr. Snow, gather all the best fighters of the branch headquarters immediately. They will follow me to the West family villa. I will personally capture the criminal Dustin Fox!” said Timothy with gritted teeth. Soon, the arrangements for the men were made, and they formed a huge troop as they marched to the West family villa. Outside the West family villa, Timothy waved a hand. “Surround the property. Make sure he can’t escape!” The elite fighters o

    There was an invitation card on a table at the villa where Simone and her family were staying. David and Simone frowned as they looked at it. It was from the main Langley family. “Alvern Langley will have his seventieth birthday soon and has invited us to the banquet. They even said that they will return the things we seek,” David said. “Our families are estranged, so why did they send us this invitation? It must be a trap!” Simone agreed as well. “Let’s ignore them. They’re on the verge of bankruptcy anyway. When the time comes, they will naturally have to return those things to us anyway.” Dustin only smiled. “We should go. Why shouldn’t we? I sure want to see what they have planned.” It was about time to deal with the main Langley family once and for all. … It was a big day for the main Langley family. Alvern Langley, the eldest member of the main Langley family, was about to celebrate his seventieth birthday. Dustin and Simone were all cleaned up and

    The members of the main Langley family gathered in the main hall of their home. They had been thoroughly humiliated during the launch event. At the same time, all their hopes had been crushed. Without the sales rights of those drugs, their pharmaceutical company had no way to grow. At this point, Dusmone Pharmaceuticals had pushed Sunrise Pharmaceuticals right to the edge. The company’s stock price reached a trench, and the main Langley family lost nearly a trillion dollars in just a few days. As for Dusmone Pharmaceuticals, they were currently doubling down on their efforts. The main Langley family could do nothing to challenge them. None of them had any ideas for how to counter the situation. Right then, a member of their staff came up with more bad news. “Is this true?” In the seat of honor, Conan glared at the servant. “Sir, it’s true! All of Rivenesco knows about it. Everyone knows that Dustin beat up the eldest son of the Wilder family of Somerton. He’s cur

    “Please sit.” The movers were very polite as they placed the chairs behind David and Monique. Brian took over from a mover and placed Simone’s chair for her personally. “Miss Simone, please sit,” Brian said with a smile. Simone and her family were stunned and did not dare to sit down. Why was Foxtin suddenly treating them so well? Conan and the others were similarly confused. Their expressions were ones of shock. Why was Foxtin treating these insignificant members of the branch family so well? They were the important ones here! “Mr. Foxtin, these three are not members of our family!” Conan had no choice but to remind Foxtin loudly. “Are you certain?” Foxtin’s voice was chilly. “Positive!” Conan said solemnly. “Since you have no relation, what did you come in here for? Do you think you have what it takes to be in this hall?” Foxtin suddenly shouted. The members of the main Langley family were stunned. “But… didn’t you ask us to come in?” someone asked weakly

    All members of the Langley family were led to a medium-sized hall. “Mr. Foxtin’s right up there. Are we all here? Please don’t approach without permission,” Brian said flatly. They all agreed and stood in place to wait. The door before them slid open and displayed a set of curtains. Behind the curtains was a silhouette of a sitting figure. It was clear that they would not be seeing Foxtin face-to-face. “Greetings, Mr. Foxtin!” Conan bowed reverently to the figure behind the curtains. The rest of the main Langley family did the same. Foxtin was someone that even Brian treated with the greatest respect. Thus, they did not dare to show any disrespect. Just the longevity and the beauty pills meant that Foxtin would become a legendary figure. Simone, David, and Monique all carried themselves carefully as well. They quickly followed and prepared to bow. “You don’t need to bow,” Brian said and stopped them. Simone and her parents looked distressed. Did Foxtin not wa

    Instantly, there was an uproar below the stage. Foxtin had not even shown up nor had there been any sort of selection process. How had the choice been made so quickly? Only the members of the main Langley family were pleased. They looked like they were the only ones who had been smart enough to jump on the chance. At this point, they were only waiting to see Foxtin. “Who did Mr. Foxtin choose?” someone below the stage asked. The host smiled and said, “The Langley family.” Thrilled, the members of the main Langley family jumped for joy. As promised, Brian had gotten them the sales rights. They had not wasted the money at all. “This is wonderful!” The members of the main Langley family were all happy and smug. Their noses were high in the air as they welcomed the attention of everyone around them. They had never gotten such an honor before. “The Langley family, huh?” When Simone’s family heard the host’s answer, they were somewhat torn. There were only them a

    “Luna!” The members of the main Langley family were displeased as they watched Luna flee. They had come in high spirits and high hopes. Yet, they faced disappointment after disappointment. First, Orion and Archer were arrested on the charge of grand theft auto. Then, Luna had been humiliated in public and had to run off. The members of the main Langley family were thoroughly shamed. However, they could not leave as they had yet to get the sales rights of those two pills. “Thank you for risking your reputation as a guarantor for me, Mr. Copper. You’ve done so much for me,” Simone said gratefully. After all that had happened, Simone was still a little bit stunned to believe that Dennis had risked his reputation to give a fake statement because of Dustin. It was only in this way that they had been able to maintain their reputation. “Don’t mention it, Miss Simone. It’s an honor to be able to authenticate such an amazing piece of jewelry. Getting to help you out was

    Everyone instantly fell silent and stared. That necklace was not fake? Luna was stunned. Her face was a mask of disbelief. “As for the amethyst on the necklace, it’s a perfect specimen. I have never seen such a perfect stone in my life. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it’s priceless! This necklace is the real Luxuria!” Dennis’s voice reverberated through the room and practically echoed. Everyone in the room was delighted. Luna could not believe her ears. The necklace was real? That flea market piece of junk was real? How was that possible? It was impossible! She refused to believe it! Luxuria was a piece of jewelry that even the Queen of Irkland could not get even though she offered an exorbitant price for it. How could Dustin compare to her? How in the world had he gotten his hands on it? “This is really a priceless necklace?” The members of the main Langley family were stunned. The necklace was not something a member from a branch of the Langle

    Everyone looked toward the source of the voice. The speaker was a chubby middle-aged man in a pristine suit. He carried himself with some charisma. “It’s him! It’s the King of Jewels, Dennis Copper!” someone cried out upon recognizing the man. It was clear that Dennis was someone who was very well-known. “The King of Jewels!” Luna was taken aback. Dennis was a big shot in the jewelry business in Hattan and indubitably its top jewel magnate. His jewelry business had reached every corner of the country, and he had stores everywhere. That was why he was called the King of Jewels. Dennis was a very important person in Hattan, with a high standing in their society. Dennis was the leading authority when it came to jewels. “I can tell with just a glance whether a jewel is fake. Since we have such a lively crowd here, how about I authenticate that for myself?” Dennis said with a smile. “Mr. Copper, this is a piece of junk that costs only ten dollars. How can we bother yo

    “A cheap fake necklace from the internet?” The socialites frowned. “How can you say my necklace is fake? This is an engagement gift from Dustin!” Simone said angrily. “That explains it,” Luna said with a smug look. “With a fiance like that, how could he afford the real thing? You really think too highly of him.” Simone’s face darkened. She did not know much about the necklace. But since it was a gift from Dustin, she liked it. She thought it was very beautiful and decided to wear it today. “Do you even know what the real one looks like?” Luna looked at her with mockery. “The real version, ‘Luxuria,’ was just released by the world’s top jewelry brand. The chain alone is made of 108 top-quality diamonds. Each diamond is worth millions!” Luna spoke proudly. She was pleased with her knowledge on the necklace. “The pendant is a purple gemstone that was mined from beneath an ancient iceberg in the far north, where it has been for millions of years. Its size and purity are rare,
