“Hahaha!” Bella laughed like she had just heard the world’s greatest joke.

“Other than this show, ‘Lady Covey’s Diaries,’ my schedule is fully booked for the next two years. Numerous investors and directors are begging me to take their scripts, and big companies are offering high pay for me to endorse their products... And yet, you’re telling me my career ends here?

“Oh, Dustin….You really are delusional. I can’t believe you can even say such a thing.”

Bella glanced at Camille and chuckled mockingly.

“With just one word from me, this little girl won’t get a spot in any crew. She won’t even be able to land a background role, let alone rise to fame. So, tell me, how is she supposed to make it big?”

When she heard that, Camille tensed up. She was very worried.

Dustin did not say anything more.

He let go of Bella’s hand and turned around. He ushered Camille out of the filming studio.

“Camille, what’s so good about this show? You shouldn’t act on it anymore. I’ll get you another sho

    A luxurious, spacious villa was located at the lakeside with a beautiful view of the surroundings and fully equipped with amenities.This was the private property of Harold Grant, a top and renowned member of the Verdant Gang.Harold was famous among gangsters.Many people still talked about his past achievements.Harold was bald. At the moment, he was fishing in the lake outside the villa.His phone rang.He picked it up, glanced at it, and accepted the call.“Miss Bella, this is the first time that you’ve called me,” he said with a smile.“Mr. Grant, something has happened in the filming studio in Rivenesco,” Bella said.She told him about the chaos that had occurred in the filming studio.Harold frowned as he listened.“Dustin Fox, the abandoned son of the Wyatt family…” His face darkened. “He hurt a dozen members of the Verdant Gang?”“Mr. Grant, if you plan to punish Dustin in any way, the Wyatt family will not interfere,” said Bella as she made her stand clear.After

    He was quite brave because he dared to come to the river and face two hundred elites alone.“Why are you here, Verdant Gang?” Dustin put down the flute and asked.“We’re here to kill you,” Harold said briskly.“Anyone who offends the Verdant Gang shall be killed without mercy!”“That makes sense,” Dustin muttered to himself.“What makes sense?” Harold frowned.“That you won’t die in vain,” Dustin said indifferently.“Haha…” Harold stood on the ship and laughed. He looked at Dustin scornfully.Did he want to kill two hundred people alone?They were the elites of the Verdant Gang.How arrogant was he to say such things?How reckless was he to think he was that capable?!After a few laughs, Harold suppressed his glee, and his face turned cold.“You’re the one who’s going to die here,” he said in a chilling tone.Dustin smiled softly.With a light push of his feet, he jumped from the boat. Two seconds later, he landed on the deck of the ship.He shot forward like a nuclea

    Bella could not understand.Harold from the Verdant Gang had taken two hundred people and rushed to Rivenesco on a ship. How could the ship simply sink?How could so many people disappear suddenly?There had been shipwrecks in the wide river outside Rivenesco, but she had never heard of such a huge incident.“What does the Verdant Gang say about this?” Bella asked a member of the Verdant Gang.“Our leader has ordered a full investigation. We are doing our best to look for them. We must find them no matter what!”Bella frowned.Harold was an investor in Lady Covey’s Diaries. If something had happened to him, could the filming still continue? Bella felt uncertain.She did not understand how Dustin was so lucky.Alvin had led the Blackguard to look for Dustin and had gone missing too. There had been no news about them.When Harold led two hundred elites of the Verdant Gang to Rivenesco on a ship, they disappeared together with the ship.She did not think that Dustin could do

    She was dropped from all the projects… How was that possible?“Just this morning, the news came in. The investors of the other scripts you accepted sent letters of cancellation and termination of the contract at the same time. It was as though there was some sort of unanimous agreement between them…”Bella’s face darkened.They terminated the contract at the same time?She did not understand why.Were these not the same people who had begged her to work in their films? What was wrong with them?Did they forget how desperate they had been?“Where’s the manager? Where’s my manager?! Why am I only hearing about something this big now?” Bella was furious.“The manager left behind just a resignation letter...” The assistant passed her the letter.Bella’s eyes widened in disbelief.Her manager was a top agent in the industry.When she was just an extra on the filing sets, this particular manager suddenly approached her. She had claimed that she saw potential in Bella and wanted

    One day, two days, and three days passed… Three days had already passed.Bella did not get any calls from the directors or investors.She felt like she was going crazy.Why did her situation flip overnight?What was the problem?“Bella…” The assistant walked into the dressing room. “What? Is there good news?” Bella immediately perked up.The assistant sighed, and Bella’s face stiffened.“Bella, I think you should check out today’s headlines.”Bella frowned. She immediately opened her phone to check the news.[Eight well-known companies have jointly issued a statement to terminate their cooperation with actress Bella Wyatt and are looking for another spokesperson!][Top actress is rumored to have ties to the underworld. She’s suspected to be a gangster’s mistress.][Major film crews terminate their contracts. Bella Wyatt may be out of work.]…Several headlines were about Bella.Bella’s face darkened. She was furious.Along with the directors and investors, the brands

    She was an A-list celebrity, yet she had no films to shoot?“Bella, maybe you can try for a supporting role?” said the assistant.“B*llshit!” Bella’s eyes widened in anger. “Someone of my caliber lowering herself to play a side character? What a joke!”The assistant dared not speak again.A few days later…Bella could not hold herself back anymore. She called the directors again and asked for a second or a third lead role.“Sorry, the roles have been filled.”“Miss Wyatt, you’re not a good fit.”She was rejected.Bella angrily threw her expensive makeup products in the dressing room.She even offered to work without pay, but the directors did not want her.Bella was depressed.“Bella, I heard that a production team is holding an open audition for a female lead. Why don’t you try that?” said her assistant.It was a production team preparing to shoot a highly popular historical drama, which naturally got a lot of attention and hype.Bella pulled herself together.She appli

    Bella had suffered so much in the last few days. She felt so frustrated and angry that she was letting it all out in a barrage of insults.She still could not believe what Dustin had claimed.How could a nobody, a mere extra, affect her? The thought itself was laughable.“Bella, it looks like you haven’t fallen far enough,” Dustin said coldly.Bella’s face froze, then she was furious.“Fall? Someone like me? That will never happen!” She sneered. “This little girl could never reach my level, not in a hundred years. I don’t know where you get your confidence from!”“Don’t worry. You’ll see soon enough,” Dustin said indifferently.Bella glanced at the long queue and sneered.“Fine! You all can keep waiting here. Of course, you might not have to wait for very long.” With that, she strutted forward in her high heels.She was very confident.With her popularity and having already starred in two hit shows of the same genre, she had the acting skills and beauty. If the directing te

    Bella was certain that she would get the role of the main female lead. So, she stood in front of the director and his group and performed calmly. But right after she spoke two of her lines, the director waved her off impatiently. “Enough. Leave.”Bella froze.She had only just spoken two lines! She was Bella Wyatt! She could not possibly have been that bad!Was the director crazy?“Sir, was there something wrong with my acting?” she asked coldly. “Every single one of your performances was obviously fake, and your acting is mediocre. I don’t even understand how you managed to become an A-list actress,” the executive director said with a stern face.Bella’s face turned red, and she trembled. These were the worst words she had heard about her acting ever since she joined the entertainment industry. No one had ever said that her acting was mediocre.“Sir, I’m starting to doubt your judgment. I’m an actress who won the People’s Choice Award, and you’re saying that my actin

    “What do you mean by that, Uncle Clark?!” Irene was outraged.“Oh, nothing! I was just saying that someone useless like you will find someone else who is just as useless!” Clark West said sarcastically. It was no secret that the two branches of the West family were always at odds. The idea of having Irene married to Trevor to save the family was also Clark’s doing. Irene had lost her father when she was very young. In the years after that, she and her mother had suffered a lot of abuse from Clark and his family. “Uncle Clark, you’re going too far!” Irene looked furious. “What? Am I wrong?” Clark scoffed. “What have you managed to accomplish throughout the years? A woman leading a family! What a joke! The only way you can contribute to the family is by marrying into the Aquila family! But you keep running off every few days. We won’t let this slide if you ruin the marriage alliance with the Aquila family!” Irene was enraged, but she did not want to vent her frustrations her

    Dustin was determined to retrieve the Fox family’s martial arts manual. If the West family had something to do with the destruction of the Fox family, then he would annihilate the West family during the visit! On the way, Irene gave Dustin a quick explanation of the West family’s difficulties. It seemed that Lucius West had wandered around quite often when he was young. His upright character had offended many people in the underground. One of them was a very dangerous person. Lucius had defeated and crippled him in the past. Unexpectedly, that person made a full recovery and got even more skilled in fighting. He had come to the West family’s villa and injured Lucius critically. He had promised to be back in ten days to kill everyone in the West family… To save themselves, some seniors of the West family had gone to the Aquila family to ask for help. In their desperation, they had promised Irene’s hand in marriage to Trevor. After all, the Aquila family was powerful and

    Irene had assumed that Dustin would be like the other men. She thought he was only standing up for her because he was drawn by her beauty. She also assumed that he would get beaten up like the others. But she was wrong. Dustin had not intervened because he was drawn to her. He had killed Trevor. For a moment, everyone in the jazz club was stumped. No one dared to offend Trevor, who was the third son of the Aquila family of Lannopolis. Yet, Dustin had killed him in just one strike. He was unimaginably brash! Ignoring the shock of those around him, Dustin turned and walked toward the jazz club’s exit. He did not even spare Irene a glance. “Hold it right there!” “Do you think you can just leave after killing Trevor?” Trevor’s underlings could not just stand by and watch as Dustin left. They moved forward to stop him. Dustin did not waste his breath. His gaze turned sharp as he made a small movement. The person who had dared to stop him was dead. After that,

    “What kind of disgraceful behavior is this, Irene?” the man asked with a frown. “Don’t forget that you will be a member of the Aquila family soon. How dare you act this way?” Irene looked at the man indifferently. Hatred flashed in her eyes for a second before it disappeared. “Oh, give up, Trevor Aquila. I will never marry you. I will never become a member of the Aquila family!” she hissed icily. “Your marriage is arranged by your family. With the way things are with the West family, do you really think you can refuse this arrangement? It’s better that you behave and come with me to the Aquila family and wait quietly for the wedding,” Trevor said with an icy smile. Irene’s pretty face grew livid with anger. “Get lost!” she shouted. Trevor was enraged by her words. “You want to do this the hard way, huh? Alright then. Drag her back home!” he ordered. “Do you think you can drag a woman away against her will in public?” One of the men in the bar immediately stepped forwa

    The Aquila family was one of the most powerful families of Lannopolis. At this moment, Brennan Aquila, the patriarch of the Aquila family was frowning and sitting in his usual seat. “Is there no news?” he asked the servant before him. “Sir, we’ve searched the entirety of Rivenesco, but we couldn’t locate Devon. We’ve also inquired with the Panther Gang and checked the Langley family’s main villa in Rivenesco, but we found nothing,” the servant said. When he heard that, Brennan looked even more troubled. His second son, Devon, had taken along some people from the Panther Gang to Rivenesco a few days ago. He had wanted to seek revenge but had then disappeared. “Investigate more! Use more drastic measures if you need to!” he shouted. “There’s no need to investigate any further,” said a woman’s voice from beyond the room. A beautiful, elegant young woman walked into the Aquila family’s living room. “Who are you?” Brennan asked. “Bianca Winter of the Seven Clans of

    “This is entirely the Langley family’s fault that we underestimated you! We were prideful and blind…” Margot said solemnly. “Please forgive us, My Liege!” At this point, Margot could do nothing but admit her mistakes. With a word, the King of Hades could wipe the Langley family from the face of the earth without so much as a noise. Dustin did not bother to respond. “Fine. Invite Simone and her family here immediately. I think you know what to do now, right?” he said coldly. “Yes, I do. I won’t let you down, My Liege!” Margot said quickly. She sent someone to invite Simone and her family here. Soon, Simone’s family arrived in the living room. They looked a little stunned. By that time, the members of the Panther Gang were all gone and the place had been cleaned up. It was as if nothing had happened here. “What happened to you?” Simone looked confused. She saw how strangely the members of the Langley family were behaving. “Uncle Derek, why are you trembling?” She

    “The Panther Gang will serve the King of Hades!” Blake declared loudly as he knelt on the floor. The members of the Langley family and those of the Panther Gang stared in shock. A minute ago, Blake seemed very intimidating and intent on seeking justice. They were taken aback by his abrupt change in attitude. “The King of Hades… The master of Hell Hall! The King of Hades!” Margot gasped so hard she nearly fainted. The members of the Langley family were so terrified that their faces turned ghostly pale. There was no one on earth who did not fear the might of Hell Hall. Some of the people in the living room were shaking in fright. In the past, they all thought that Dustin was a nobody, so they treated him like trash. When they thought about how their family had tried to kill the King of Hades, the members of the Langley family felt horrified. Dustin glanced at the man kneeling on the floor, and his face looked taunting. “Your sister is the wife of the head of the A

    Dustin had not said anything about the numerous Panther Gang corpses on the floor. No one had dared to clear them away. In the middle of all the mess was Devon’s headless body. When Blake recognized the corpse, his eyes widened in fury. He looked at Dustin without bothering to hide his desire for revenge. “Who are you? Where did you come from? Are you with the law or something else?” Blake did not make a move immediately. Instead, he demanded answers from Dustin. When he received the report from one of his branch leaders, he realized that Dustin was not someone to be messed with. That was why he was questioning Dustin first. Dustin looked at Blake, and his gaze froze the gang leader in place. “Back in the day, the Aquila family only started growing after participating in a campaign to destroy the Fox family of Grayvale. Did the Panther Gang have a hand in that campaign?” Dustin asked. His gaze was focused on Blake. If he admitted his involvement, he would be dead. “T

    The three branch leaders of the Panther Gang were stony-faced. One of them said coldly, “Arrogant punk!” Dustin had cut off Devon’s head and was demanding Blake Torell, Blake, to come here to see him. None of them had ever encountered anyone who was so brazen in Rivenesco. “We won’t dare to return to the head of our gang without your head as a trophy!” The branch leaders were aggressive while their crowd of gang members outside were preparing to rush in. Dustin looked annoyed as he waved a hand. One of the Hell Guards made his move. He was like a shadow as he shot through the door. Thereafter, the two leaders’ eyes widened in horror. Blood gushed from their throats as they fell. The remaining branch leader was shaken. She shuddered. Dustin’s subordinate had killed them as easily as breathing. The members of the Panther Gang who had been preparing to rush inside froze. They stood outside motionless. The members of the Langley family were shocked. The branch leader
