Chapter 26

Author: Autumn Rain
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

    “Why? How could this be?!”Bella threw another tantrum in the changing room.This latest audition had completely humiliated her.Not only did the executive director give her the cold shoulder and insult her, but she also lost to an inexperienced girl who had not even played a side character before.With her strong sense of pride, how could she accept this?When she remembered what Dustin said before he left, she burned with even more anger.“In less than three months, you’ll become a no-name actress. You won’t even be hired to play a small, background character.”“I won the People’s Choice Award, and he says no one will hire me even for background characters? Impossible!” Bella muttered with a grim face.Suddenly, someone asked, “Are you Bella Wyatt?” Bella was shocked. It was only then that she noticed someone had shown up in her changing room.“Who are you?” Bella demanded warily.“A Hell Messenger from the Verdant Gang,” the person said coldly.Bella’s face froze.A He

    Dustin smiled and said, “Yes. I did it.”The Hell Messenger narrowed his eyes, while Bella’s face stiffened.They had not expected Dustin to admit to it so readily.“How did you do it?” the Hell Messenger asked.“It’s simple. I killed them and sank their ship,” Dustin said with a relaxed smile as though he was talking about the weather.The Hell Messenger narrowed his eyes.“There were more than two hundred people on the ship, and you killed them all? Who do you think you are? A superhero?” Bella scoffed.In the eyes of the Wyatt family, Dustin was just a piece of trash who had no talent whatsoever.How could he have done something so astounding?Bella’s face was full of disdain.“How did you kill them and sink their ship?” asked the Hell Messenger with a dark face.“Ask them yourself,” Dustin said coldly.The Hell Messenger’s face stiffened.“Dustin, how dare you be so rude to the Hell Messenger?!” Bella shouted.“Quiet!” the Hell Messenger snapped.Bella immediately fe

    The headquarters of the Verdant Gang was located in a city west of Rivenesco.When the helicopter landed outside the headquarters, Dustin pushed Bella out, and she fell face-first in the dirt.“You crazy b*stard!” she screamed in her disheveled state.After Dustin killed the Hell Messenger, he dragged her into the helicopter and headed straight to the headquarters. The Verdant Gang was a prominent force in the city, and its headquarters was practically a lion’s den.Why would Dustin even dare to come here?Was he thinking about barging in alone?“Who’s there?”Members of the Verdant Gang rushed out and pointed their guns at them.Bella was so terrified that she raised her hands to surrender.“This is Dustin Fox! He killed Mr. Grant and the Hell Messenger! Catch him!” she shouted in fear.“What? He killed a Hell Messenger?” The gang members were shocked.The Hell Messengers were the Verdant Gang’s trump card and were really powerful. How could one of them have been killed s

    The Yeager family members looked at each other at a loss.What the hell was the CEO doing? Everything was so elusive and confusing. They were unhappy, but they dared not show it. While they remained silent, Dustin slowly sipped his red wine, picked up a napkin, and wiped his mouth. “No signing,” he said indifferently. The Yeager family members looked over at him.“What did you say?!” Zack yelled at him with a dark face. Why was he speaking?Did he even have the right to speak? It was an extremely important collaboration. Even if Terry was protecting him, Zack could not care less. Dustin must be out of his mind since he dared to interrupt such an important discussion. “Shut up! This isn’t your place to speak!” Percy shouted. The Yeager family members were furious. They were afraid that Dustin’s reckless words would ruin the deal. “You think just because you say, ‘no signing,’ it’ll be done? Do you think you’re the CEO of Duscia Corporation?!” Damien yelled at him. He

    “What’s going on with our great-grandfather? Dustin is not even related to our family. How can he treat him better than us?”A few members of the Yeager family stood on the side awkwardly while watching Dustin and the others chatting happily. Damien whispered in dissatisfaction. They could not bear the sight of this, and they felt very resentful.“Stop talking!” Warren snapped.“Don’t worry, he won’t remain so arrogant for long. Dad favors him. So? In this society, ability speaks louder than anything else,” Zack said in a low voice. “A man who lives off an inheritance without a proper job… even if he has some luck and inheritance, he’ll squander it away in no time. Then, he’ll struggle to get by. Dad will see the truth in time.“Besides, who knows how long Dad can stay conscious? Do you really think that kid can make Dad young again? I don’t believe in such an absurd thing.“Dad is already very old. We should just go along with this for now. They’re lucky they get to hang around

    Dustin did not say anything. Terry was smart indeed. Zack and the others were blinded by the lure of great benefits. A while later, some voices were heard. It meant that the guest had arrived. Percy led Adrian inside. “Dad, this is Mr. Adrian Pierce, the general manager of Duscia Corporation. We always communicated with him about the collaboration,” said Warren as an introduction.Terry nodded, and he looked closely at Adrian. “This young man is not someone ordinary.” His eyes gleamed sharply as he recognized Adrian’s extraordinary presence. Different people, depending on their status and identity, carried themselves with different temperaments. When Terry was young, he used to work in Summerdale and meet many upper-class people. Adrian’s temperament was on par with the young heirs of Summerdale. “I’m Adrian Pierce. It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Yeager.” Adrian walked to Terry and bowed respectfully.This shocked the Yeager family. Adrian had such a high status, but he

    A day passed in the blink of an eye. In the evening, Dustin and Patricia drove to the Yeager family villa. When they got out of the car and walked to the entrance of the Yeager family villa, they saw Percy waiting at the door. When Percy saw them, he turned livid, and his face darkened. “Uncle Percy,” said Patricia in greeting. “Hmph! So, you still recognize me as your uncle,” said Percy coldly and glared at Patricia. Patricia remained silent. Percy glanced at Dustin. His gaze shone with hatred. Patricia used to be very obedient and never dared to go against the Yeager family members. But lately, she had become so insolent even toward the patriarch of the family. Percy thought that Dustin must have led her astray. “Today, your great-grandfather invited you over for a meal. You’d better behave at the dining table and make him happy,” Percy said. “We will,” Patricia said. “Well, why are you so stubborn then? The Yeager family has agreed to let you return, yet you in

    “The Tonra family sent me here to prepare to take over Hattan. We will start from the market in Hattan before we develop the market in the south. The future profits are immensely worthwhile. I’m determined to build a huge business kingdom. “Honestly, these families in Hattan are just so-so. I don’t take them seriously at all. But Duscia Corporation is fine. You just invested a hefty 2 billion right off the bat. That’s quite impressive.” Crispin smiled. “I came from the Southwestern region. I didn’t bring many workers, so we’re lacking some manpower. You’re an expert. Why don’t you work for me? I’ll make it worth your while. How about it?” He confidently offered a job to Dustin and waited for his response. Dustin stared at him calmly. “Regardless of your background, you look quite ambitious to me, but you don’t have sufficient capabilities. Hattan has limited you. If you work for me, your future will be promising!” Adrian found that amusing. Such rich spoiled brats were

    Dustin observed what was going on at the front desk on the security feed on his screen. Adrian arrived at the front desk. “Mr. Pierce, you’re here.” The receptionist nodded at Adrian, and Adrian nodded back. Crispin and the driver, Nicholas Olson, assessed Adrian. “What a self-important person the general manager of Duscia Corporation is! How dare you make Mr. Tonra wait downstairs?” Nicholas asked in displeasure. Adrian did not spare the driver a single glance. He could not be bothered to speak with an insignificant staff member. If Dustin had not given him the orders, he would have chased these two out already. “You’re the general manager of Duscia Corporation, Adrian Pierce, yes?” Crispin looked at Adrian contemptuously. “I’ve never heard of the Pierce family having a person with your name. You’re quite capable of fooling the families of Hattan so easily with the same last name.” Thinking that he had dirt on Adrian, Crispin smiled very tauntingly. “What are yo

    “I find it all quite interesting. This Duscia Corporation, this fake rich kid… Let’s go take a look.” “Yes, sir.” At around 2 p.m., the Lamborghini stopped at the entrance of Duscia Corporation. The young man walked into the building with his driver. “Hello, sir. How can I help you?” the receptionist asked. “This is the son of the Tonra family of Articora. Have the person in charge of your company come and welcome him,” the driver announced loudly. “Do you have an appointment?” the receptionist asked with a smile. “What?” The young man, Crispin Tonra, immediately frowned. “What kind of receptionist are you? Haven’t you heard of the Tonra family of Articora? Mr. Tonra of the ultra-rich Tonra family doesn’t need an appointment to come to your company. Go and tell your boss about his arrival. Have the person in charge rush over here to welcome Mr. Tonra,” yelled the driver at the receptionist. “I’m sorry. The person in charge of our company is very busy. All guests mu

    The great Dhillon family of Hattan was destroyed just like that. It was said that Kendall had become a useless cripple and would have to spend the rest of his days relegated to bed. He could not even move, and there was nothing that could be done to treat him. The other families in Hattan thought that it was the ultra-rich Cabello family of Summerdale that had done this. They were impressed at how powerful the Cabello family was and pitied the Dhillon family. It was true that one could not afford to offend a family like that. After spending a day at the hotel, Dustin took Patricia back to their apartment in the suburbs. The place had been cleaned up and was immaculate. All the damage from the fight had been fixed, and everything looked good as new. Patricia was a strong woman. Thus, she recovered from her ordeal very quickly. She even went to work right after. Dustin went to Duscia Corporation, and Adrian reported to him. “It’s impossible for the Dhillon family to mak

    A life like that would be worse than anything. To put it crudely, it would be a luxury for Kendall to be able to kill himself. This was the consequence of daring to hurt Patricia. Dustin went to stand before Patricia and reached out to touch the red veil surrounding her. With a plop, the light burst like a bubble, and Patricia landed on the floor. “Dustin,” Patricia called. She threw herself into Dustin’s embrace. She cried softly as she held onto Dustin tightly. “You’re alright,” Dustin said comfortingly as he patted her on the back. Patricia did not speak. She clung to Dustin without letting go. She had just realized that she could not live without Dustin in her life. Before that moment, she had been so worried about Dustin and wanted him to leave without coming in. It would not have mattered if she had died because of it. She finally understood. She had long accepted Dustin into her heart. After a long time in Dustin’s embrace, Patricia finally cal
