The Lotus Sect was the most powerful organization in the entire southwest. It had countless members, and many of them were elite fighters. Its leader and elders were all Martial Saints. The Lotus Sect was considered unmatched in the southwest. At the headquarters of the Lotus Sect in Grayvale, the powerful leader of the sect and some of its elders were gathered. On the throne were a couple. The woman was charismatic and had the bearing of a queen. The man looked slightly sinister and condescending. They held positions that were above the typical masses of the Lotus Sect and could control them all. They were Amara and Elijah Wyatt. “Miss Amara, Mr. Elijah, the various martial forces of Grayvale have pledged themselves to us,” the leader of the Lotus Sect, Humbert Whittle, said and saluted. “Now, the Lotus Sect is the true master of the martial world in the southwest. We’re even more powerful than the Martial League branch here!” “The Martial League branch in Grayvale
Today was Dustin’s last day as a security guard at Creative Arts Corporation. Shawna’s position at the company had been secured, and everything would go smoothly after this. Thus, Dustin no longer had to worry about her. Besides, he had helped Shawna enough. It was enough to repay Michelle for her kindness. Dustin was the King of Hades. He could not remain in the security booth indefinitely. It was the last hour of Dustin’s shift. Shawna was not doing much. She stood at the window of her office and watched the security booth through the glass. Her expression was complicated. After a long while, she sighed heavily. When it came down to it, she and Dustin were from different worlds. After Dustin left his post, Shawna would move out of the villa. It was nearing the end of Dustin’s shift. He handed everything over to someone else. Suddenly, several cards blazed toward the building where Creative Arts Corporation was. They came to a stop outside the security booth
“The rest is up to you now,” Dustin said to Shawna, who had personally come to see him off. They were at the entrance of Creative Arts Corporation, and Dustin had changed out of his security guard uniform. Shawna had become the head of the Riley family. She had a much higher standing than before. Dustin had given her the platform to show off her skills. What she did with it was up to her own abilities. If nothing unexpected happened, Dustin would not interfere. “Thank you, Dustin,” Shawna said sincerely. “You helped Mrs. Swift, so I helped you. We’re even,” Dustin said with a smile. “We’re even, huh?” Shawna looked a bit disappointed. After a moment, she smiled and looked up. “Don’t worry. I won’t disappoint you,” she said. Dustin nodded and waved goodbye. Then, he turned around and left. “Dustin!” Shawna cried out. Dustin turned to her. “Are we… friends?” Shawna asked. “Aren’t we?” Dustin grinned. He waved again and turned back.Shawna smiled as she w
At the Wyatt family in Rivenesco, Lovellia, a handsome young man rushed into the house.Dustin Fox walked into the living room carrying a cake. Five gorgeous women came up to meet him.They were the five stunning sisters of the Wyatt family. The eldest, Amara, was dressed in office attire that did nothing to hide her amazing figure. The second sister, Bella, was cold and distant. Her beauty was marked by a chilling elegance.The third sister, Clara, wore a short skirt and high heels. She was no less than a seductive temptress. The fourth sister, Delia, was in casual dress. Her features were softer but no less pretty. The youngest sister, Elisa, was lively and charming.“Happy birthday, Amara!” Dustin beamed as he presented the cake to her.Amara glanced at the cake coldly. It was crumbling a little, and the box was a little blood-stained.Frowning, Amara slapped the cake box away and sent it flying. When it landed on the floor, the cake was smashed into a pitiful pile.Amara loo
“Where should I go now?”Dustin looked up at the sky and sighed. He felt a little lost.Up until that point, he had done everything for the Wyatt family. Suddenly he had been kicked out of the family, so he did not know what to do.The beep of a car horn sounded right then.A vintage car stopped in front of the gates. A pretty woman in a long white dress got out of the car.Dustin knew her.Her name was Simone Langley, and he had saved her life once before.In truth, Amara had been facing an assassination attempt back then. After the assassin failed his attempt, Dustin had chased after him. The assassin had used Simone as a hostage when Dustin had saved her by killing him.“Mr. Fox, please come with me,” she said gently. Simone extended a hand to Dustin with a smile.“You saved my life once. Now that the Wyatt family has driven you out, why don’t you come join me in the Langley family? Although my family has fallen on hard times, we’ll still give you the best that we have!” Si
Elisa returned home with a temper.“Amara, that useless Dustin really didn’t take anything from the Wyatt family. The Langley family took him in,” she said huffily.“The Langley family?” Amara frowned.“Yes. The one called Simone Langley. She brought some gifts to the house that one time. But I sent her packing because you didn’t want to see her.”Amara thought about it.“I remember now. The company owned by the Langley family wanted a partnership, but I ignored them. I heard their company is on the brink of bankruptcy now…”“Yes! That’s the same Langley family.” Elisa nodded earnestly.“Their company’s going bankrupt. The family’s not going to survive much longer. I can’t believe they dared take that piece of trash in. It makes no sense!“That trash Dustin even claimed that the Wyatt family owes him. Isn’t that laughable?”Elisa’s sisters all reacted in different ways.Some mocked him, others felt disdainful, and yet others treated it with cool indifference.“Dustin was not
“Mr. Mortimer, for such a huge order… Are you sure you want to work with us?”David and Simone could hardly believe it.The Langley Group was on the verge of bankruptcy.It was almost a pipe dream to be able to work with the Excelsior Group.“Mr. Langley, is my visit to your doorstep not enough to show my sincerity?” Duke joked.“Of course not!” David waved a hand. “It’s just hard for us to believe that someone of your stature would come all the way here…”Duke glanced at Dustin calmly.“I heard about what happened to the Langley family. What you did was honorable. It’s worthy of respect. You refused to sell products that did not meet your expectations. You even took on huge debts just to make sure substandard goods weren’t released into the market. The Excelsior Group needs partners like you.”Duke’s words brought tears to David’s eyes.“Thank you… thank you…” He said the same thing over and over again.This order was exactly what the Langley family needed at the moment.“D
Amara walked into the Wyatt family villa with a long face.“Amara, what happened?” her sister asked.“The president of the Excelsior Group was with the Langley family and personally signed a contract with them,” Amara said coldly. “As for the Wyatt Group, we’ve been betrayed.”Amara said all that very calmly. Yet, a fierce rage simmered under the calm.“The Langley family is nothing! What does the Excelsior Group see in them?” The others found the situation hard to believe.“There’s no point in discussing this,” Amara said with a frown.“Remember, from this day forward, the Langley family is an enemy to the Wyatt Group. I have only one goal from now, and that is to utterly destroy the Langley family.”The other sisters were all quiet.Once Amara decided to do something, she stopped at nothing until it was done.That was the kind of power she had as the president of the Wyatt Group.“That insolent Dustin told me to get lost!” Amara’s voice was icy.The scene at the Langley family kept r

“Shawna, since the car is here, let’s get home,” Dustin said. “Okay.” Shawna nodded. She did not want to stay at this reunion any longer. The two of them stood up. Shawna’s ex-classmates wanted to get them to stay, but no one dared to speak up. They all thought that they did not have the right to do so. “Oh, right!” Dustin suddenly stopped walking. He looked over at the pale-faced Marco. “Mr. Guerrero, please remember to pay your bill in full. Majestic Hotel does not typically offer discounts to most people.” Marco’s face stiffened. “A-Alright…” Marco nodded. Dustin smiled and took Shawna’s hand to lead her outside. The guests all watched as they left. Meanwhile, Tucker bowed very low. At the entrance to the hotel, Shawna could feel her heart race when she saw the blue Rolls-Royce Phantom. She had never sat in such a high-class luxury car before. The car she drove only cost a bit over 100 thousand dollars. She probably could not afford to buy even a single tir
With a word, Dustin had banished the manager of Majestic Hotel. This made Shawna’s ex-classmates go quiet. This was the kind of influence only a very important person could have. It was the kind of thing that normal people could not even imagine. The ballroom was silent for a long while as no one dared to speak. After a long while, a man said hesitantly, “I found it strange. How could our amazing campus belle get just anyone as a boyfriend? Indeed, she found an exceptional person.” “Forget exceptional. He’s practically a god among men!” someone else said teasingly. “Shawna is truly an impeccable person and only an awe-inspiring one like Dustin can be her match. We’re hardly worthy of the same…” The guests all laughed and joked as they praised them. They were thinking of getting closer to Shawna in this way and getting some perks out of it. “Shawna, we were all fooled by Marco’s words just now. That’s why we said such awful things. We hope you can be gracious and forg
“We trusted you, but you tricked us! That’s infuriating! You made us seem so mean, too.” The surrounding guests all started laying in on Marco. They looked disdainful and no longer treated Marco like their respected class president. They all took turns to lecture him. They wanted to make it clear that they had nothing to do with Marco and were innocent in this matter. Dustin, Shawna’s “pig farmer” boyfriend, was someone that even the owner of Majestic Hotel had to treat with respect. How could any of them offend such a person? In the blink of an eye, Marco turned from an admired and respected person into someone his ex-classmates hated. The guests had done a full 180. It was like Marco had fallen from heaven right into the pits of hell. “Marco, I didn’t realize you had such a fragile ego. You tricked everyone here,” Devina said angrily. “I knew that Dustin was never that sort of person. I knew you were framing him from the start!” Dustin put on a mocking smile at that.
“Does Majestic Hotel sell Ronan wine?” Dustin asked as he held onto the wine glass. “We do. Our hotel has a stock of Ronan wine. A bottle sells for at least 100 thousand dollars. The most expensive bottle could be around 700 or 800 thousand dollars,” Tucker said immediately. “The expensive ones are priced that way because they’re vintage. The most valuable among them are priceless and are only very rarely brought out for special guests. Every time this happens, I must first give my approval.” Dustin smirked. “What a coincidence. My generous friend brought three of the hotel’s bottles of rare wine as a treat for this reunion.” Tucker’s face stiffened when he heard this. He turned around and glared at Cody. He asked, “Cody, what’s going on?” Cody was shaking all over. He looked scared. “Boss, I did not disobey your orders. These bottles of wine are not from our hotel cellars,” he said in fear. “Well, that’s strange.” Dustin smiled at Marco before looking at Cody agai
At that moment, everyone was taken aback, and their minds buzzed from the sudden realization. The ballroom was blanketed in silence as everyone froze. It took a long time for them to come back to themselves. Some of their mouths dropped wide open. They were unable to speak. Some of them were staring with eyes opened wide enough for their eyeballs to fall out. Some looked like idiots. Everyone was floored. What had they just witnessed? The owner of Majestic Hotel, an important person in his own right, came running after just one call from Dustin. Plus, he was being so respectful as he begged Dustin for forgiveness for his delay… What was going on? Was this simply some kind of hallucination? How could a pig farmer that none of them respected have such influence? In this short time, everyone was shocked to the core. Their hearts nearly stopped from the surprise. None of them were spared. They could not help but be taken aback. Even Devina, who had looked down on D
Everyone in the ballroom looked at Dustin in astonishment. Cody was the manager of Majestic Hotel and was giving Dustin a chance to back out of his claims. Yet, Dustin did not take it. Worse, he implied that Cody did not have the authority to call the shots. He even wanted to see the owner of Majestic Hotel. Who did Dustin think he was? He was only a low-class pig farmer. Did he have the right to meet such an important person? Dustin could no longer be called bold. He was nothing but a fool with an overinflated ego. “Hahaha… You have nothing to say to me?” Cody laughed in rage. “That’s the first time I’ve heard something like that. I wonder how important you are that I don’t have what it takes to talk to you.” “Mr. Siegal, don’t listen to him. He’s just a pig farmer,” someone said. “A pig farmer?” Cody’s face turned cold and frightening. “How dare a mere pig farmer come to Majestic Hotel and make such accusations? This isn’t somewhere you can cause trouble!” “Dust
