Chapter 279

Author: Autumn Rain
Waylon stood behind Clayton. After he saw them coming, his face turned stormy.

Thoughts spun in his mind, and he was plotting his own schemes.

“Mom, how can you…” Shawna held Maisie’s hand, and tears streamed down her face.

“Shawna, I’d do anything for you,” Maisie said with affection.

Shawna felt even sadder. She collapsed in Maisie’s arms and sobbed uncontrollably.

Clayton and the other people’s faces darkened.

“Oh, Shawna is here. Come, this is for you!” said Archie and smiled. He handed a present to Shawna, but his lecherous gaze roamed shamelessly over the mother and daughter’s graceful figures.

How stunning the mother and daughter were…

He seemed to be plotting what he would do to them after they got married.

“I don’t want your present!” Shawna flung the present in disgust.

Archie’s face darkened.

“How dare you?!” A member of the Riley family was the first to speak and yell at Shawna.

“Shawna, have you forgotten who you are? Apologize to Archie now!” Clayton

    Dustin looked at Archie and sneered. “You’re just one step away from your death, yet you’re still consumed by lust. Do you even think you’re worthy of this?” He spoke icily and walked toward Archie. Archie felt a shiver down his spine. “You…” He stared at Dustin in shock, and he stumbled a few steps back. “Stop him!” Archie shouted in fear. A few thugs of the Finn family immediately rushed forward to stop Dustin. Dustin took a step forward, and his imposing manner was unstoppable, like a sharp arrow cutting through the air. The thugs of the Finn family were sent spinning through the air and crashed onto the ground. Dustin took another step and approached Archie. Before Archie moved back, he grabbed him by the neck and lifted him off the floor effortlessly. Archie was being strangled. He found it hard to breathe and kicked his feet to break free.The Riley family members were so shocked, and their faces reflected the fear they felt. “Brat, have you lost your

    “I’m resigning! That should settle my debt with the Riley family, right?” Shawna’s voice trembled with barely restrained anger. “Dream on! The debt you and your mother owe to the Riley family can never be settled!” said a member of the Riley family and sneered. His face twisted with contempt. “You two are just a worthless nobody and a b*stard child. Our family’s mercy in taking you in is the greatest blessing you’ll ever get. How could you possibly repay that?” “Uncle, that’s crossing the line!” Shawna’s voice trembled with fury. “Too far indeed. Someone needs to teach him some respect,” Dustin said coldly as he strode forward. In a single stride, he stood before the man. Smack! The slap echoed like a gunshot in the Riley family’s lavish hall. The man flew backward like a rag doll. He did not even have time to react. He blacked out midair. By the time he hit the floor, he was already unconscious and sprawled limply like discarded trash. The Riley family mem

    John Donner was a name synonymous with power and fear in Grayvale. He was a renowned martial artist who had reached the esteemed sovereign grade. His reputation spanned decades, and his influence on Grayvale was absolute. He was simply known as Master Donner. John was not just a man of influence. He was an untouchable force. Whether in legitimate circles or the underground, there was no one who dared to disrespect him. As his arrival at the Riley family villa drew near, the atmosphere grew heavy. It was suffused with an invisible pressure that seemed to pierce through the walls. It was suffocating, like a tangible aura of dominance that preceded the man himself. When John finally stepped into the villa, Dustin could hear his deliberate breathing. Each breath was perfectly measured. It was a hallmark of a martial artist grandmaster. It was a breathing technique designed to amplify strength with every step. John was building his power with each step, and his potential devas

    “Security guard? A servant? Ha! Do you even know who he really is?” The crowd exchanged puzzled glances. “Who... is he?” John’s gaze sharpened and cut through the tension like a blade. “Twenty years ago, the prestigious Fox family of Grayvale was annihilated overnight. It was said that no one survived. But later, it was discovered that a son and daughter managed to escape. The bloodline of the Fox family endured, and he is the surviving son.” Shock rippled through the room. The Fox family massacre had long been shrouded in mystery. Those who knew of it understood that probing too deeply would invite disaster. Few had ever imagined that any Fox family member had survived. But Dustin, far from lying low, had boldly stepped back into the very city where his family met its end. Was he reckless or just trying to die? Shawna looked at Dustin with a mix of emotions. The quiet and seemingly unassuming security guard she had brought along had such a devastating p

    John was a Legendary Martial Saint. When someone of his caliber reached near-perfect condition, the destructive power they could unleash would be terrifying. At this moment, Dustin was like prey locked in the sights of a hunter. He would be taken down at any second. “A Martial Saint in action? That brat doesn’t stand a chance,” someone muttered. “He’s dead for sure! Good riddance!” The Riley family members sneered. Archie smirked in anticipation. With Dustin out of the picture, no one could stop him from marrying Maisie. Standing in the center of the hall, John fixed his piercing gaze on Dustin. There was a flicker of admiration in his eyes. “The surviving descendant of the Fox family... To have reached such a level at your age is remarkable. At your age, I was far weaker… “I am the leader of Honora’s martial arts community. I owe the General of the West a favor, and he has tasked me with killing you today. Since you are a young man, I will grant you the courte

    A flash of cold steel swept through the air. John’s eyes bulged in shock as he stumbled backward and clutched his neck. Blood gushed persistently from his throat. Thud. Thud. Thud. After a few unsteady steps, he collapsed lifelessly to the floor. His eyes were wide open in disbelief, even in death. “He killed him!” The Riley family members turned pale and trembled uncontrollably. Archie’s face twisted and turned into a sickly shade of purple. Dustin did not even look at John’s corpse. The moment John stepped into the Riley family villa with orders to kill him, his fate had been sealed. “Hell Guards, remove him,” Dustin said flatly. Three shadowy figures emerged as if conjured from the very air. Without a word, they efficiently dealt with John’s body. This was the home of Shawna and her mother, and Dustin did not want to make them feel uneasy. Otherwise, he would not have bothered with the body. Their practiced movements chilled everyone to the bone.

    “My Liege, I’ve confirmed it. The Bloodveil Orchid is within the McCall family villa, located in Grayvale,” a Hell Guard said respectfully to Dustin at the security booth outside the Creative Arts Corporation building. Yesterday’s tension at the Riley family villa ended on an oddly subdued note. Though Shawna remained suspicious, she chose not to press the matter. Dustin had since resumed his unassuming role as a security guard. The Bloodveil Orchid was an extra ingredient needed to make the antidote to Irene’s poisoning. “The McCall family keeps a low profile, but they’re rumored to have ties with a top figure in Central Harbor… “Jonathan McCall has been bedridden for years and relies on rare and potent herbs to cling to life. The Bloodveil Orchid is such a rare herb that is brought in specifically for his treatment.” Dustin frowned. Someone dependent on the flower to sustain his life would hardly give it up. “Regardless, the flower must be secured,” Dustin said

    “Who says fame is the only measure of medical skill? You’ve invited the most renowned physicians for years, haven’t you? Yet, has anyone even been able to cure Mr. McCall?” “You little brat, are you looking for trouble?” the gatekeeper snapped. “Do you know where you are, kid? This isn’t a place for your antics. Get lost!” barked one of the physicians nearby. He was clearly insulted by the insinuation. Dustin’s face darkened. His patience was hanging by a thread when a melodic voice suddenly interjected, “Let him in.” Heads turned as a striking young woman appeared, and she walked gracefully toward them. Dressed in an ethereal white silk gown that seemed to float around her, she exuded an otherworldly beauty that was almost unreal. Her serene and refined demeanor set her apart, as if she were a goddess descended to the mortal world. Dustin immediately understood that this must be Allison McCall, the fabled beauty of the McCall family. “Miss Allison, this brat is no

    “The Quinn family of Central Harbor. Is that right? Is it really the Quinn family?” All the guests were taken aback after it was announced. They wondered if they had heard wrongly. The Quinn family of Central Harbor was a truly important family. They were one of the greatest and most elite families of Lovellia! They held a much higher position than any of the families in Somerton, including the Wilder family! For the main Langley family, the Wilder family was one they could barely hope to get close to. However, the Quinn family was even greater than the Wilder family. It was difficult to imagine the full power the patriarch of the Quinn family had. Yet, that lofty person was personally there to wish Alvern a very happy birthday. It was shocking! What kind of clout did Alvern have that even Jasper had come here? Daniel’s jaw dropped, and he looked thoroughly shocked. This had far surpassed his imagination. The guests who had come to this birthday banquet completel

    “Happy Seventieth Birthday, Mr. Langley,” Braddick said and bowed to Alvern. The action shocked everyone. Braddick was the patriarch of a great family in Somerton, but he actually bowed to Alvern! Could this be Daniel’s doing? If it was, then Daniel’s influence as the son of the Wilder family was truly impressive. “Daniel, did you invite these people here?” Alvern asked softly. Daniel could not help but frown. “Maybe they rushed over here because they heard that I’m here.” “Truly, your reputation precedes you,” the members of the main Langley family said. They were all smiles. Although Daniel’s logic was sound, Thaddeus and Braddick only wished Alvern happy birthday and did not approach Daniel to speak to him. It was as if they were ignoring him. For a moment, Daniel’s pride took a hit. His face twisted in annoyance. ‘How dare the insignificant Shrike family ignore me? Do they want to die?’ After agonizing about it for a bit, he decided to throw his weight around an

    “Who is Dustin Fox?” some members of the National Pharmaceutical Department yelled loudly as they stormed in. “That’s him!” The members of the main Langley family pointed at Dustin. “You are suspected of stealing confidential drugs from the National Pharmaceutical Department. You’d best comply and help with our investigation. If you don’t, you’ll have to face the consequences!” The people from the National Pharmaceutical Department were very aggressive. “Come with us now!” Daniel and the members of the main Langley family were all laughing. Meanwhile, Simone and her parents were worried. “Very well,” Dustin said flatly. “Wait for my return,” he said to Simone. Then, he followed the people from the National Pharmaceutical Department. Daniel looked away from Dustin. He was still smiling. He watched as the members of the main Langley family simpered before him before looking over at Simone, who was standing quietly nearby. He felt delighted. Dustin had beaten him up be

    “Come here and bow before Daniel. If you apologize and slap yourself twenty times, he will forgive you.” Dustin’s gaze was sharp, and his posture became threatening. Were the members of the main Langley family serious? They wanted him to slap himself twenty times and beg for forgiveness? This was supposed to be the kind of negotiation they had done with Daniel on the family’s behalf? This was an out-and-out insult! The guests all looked amused at the proceedings. The members of the main Langley family were truly heartless in making one of their own family members beg an outsider for forgiveness. They were really giving their all to suck up to Daniel. Dustin looked pitiful. He had offended someone he should not have and gotten into such trouble with the main Langley family. At this point, everyone was waiting to see if Dustin would bow under pressure. “Are you deaf, Dustin?” the members of the main Langley family shouted. “Hurry up and beg Daniel for forgiveness!

    “Actually, everyone, Mr. Daniel of the Wilder family of Somerton has some connection with us,” Alvern said loudly to the guests as he held Daniel’s hand. The guests were suddenly in an uproar. The Langley family was not very famous. It was a shock that they had any sort of connection with the Wilder family. If the Wilder family gave them just the slightest bit of a boost, the Langley family would be able to soar to unimaginable heights. “Daniel isn’t just here to celebrate my birthday tonight. We have another important matter to settle,” Alvern said. “Mr. Langley, what is the matter?” someone asked inquisitively. Alvern looked around and paused. “Some of you might have already heard whispers of it. Dustin Fox, Simone’s fiance from the branch family, beat Daniel up for no reason a few days ago and injured him severely.” The guests’ expressions turned stiff. Indeed, there were whispers of the incident. The whole thing had shaken up Hattan. It seemed that there w

    All the other grandchildren presented worthy gifts, even though the most valuable presents were worth only tens or thousands of dollars. “Good! This is great!” Alvern was beaming where he sat. He was very pleased. “Simone Langley, a member of the branch Langley family, and her fiance present a petrified coral.” When it was Dustin and Simone’s turn, Dustin brought out the antique he had won at the Antiquities Trading Hall. When it was brought out, there was instantly an uproar. “I heard that this is a very rare antique. It’s worth no less than 20 million dollars. It’s a rare gem!” muttered the guests. “Dustin is too generous. Doesn’t the Langley family look down on him? How could he possibly have the ability to spend so much money?” Some of the guests were shocked. The members of the main Langley family turned ashen when the petrified coral was presented. They were very displeased. Meanwhile, Alvern’s eyes were sparkling. He was very pleased with the gift. The mai

    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
