Dustin paid for it with his card without hesitation. Simone was worried. If the item turned out to be fake, they would lose 250 thousand dollars. Meanwhile, Darren had his three items appraised. Two were fine, and he only had to pay an extra 300 thousand for them. But the antique hand fan was incredibly valuable. A real one would be worth almost 5 million. He had to pay over 800 thousand for it. Darren made up his mind and used all his savings to pay. He trusted his experience and keen observation. “Let me remind you again. All three of those items are fake,” Dustin said. “Shut up! No one asked you!” Darren was feeling unsure, and Dustin’s words made him snap. “I know I’m right. What does someone like you know?” Dustin shrugged and stopped talking. After everyone paid, the results were revealed on a big screen. Images of the items appeared and were marked as either “Genuine” or “Fake.” As the results were revealed, some people were happy, while others were disap

“Fake?!” Darren’s eyes widened in shock as he stared at the screen. He could not take his eyes off it. When the results were revealed, Darren was not the only one who was stunned. The entire hall went silent. All three of Darren’s antiques were fake. Not even one was real. A moment later, the hall exploded into chaos. Everyone had high expectations for those items. Most of them believed they were real. Darren was a well-known collector in Hattan’s antique industry. He had years of experience, and people trusted his expertise and judgment. But he got all three items wrong. They were all fake. He had been wrong about Dustin’s vase, and his own choices were even worse. Three mistakes in a row. He lost everything! How ironic was that? A respected collector like Darren had a far less discerning eye for antiques than a young man like Dustin. “Fake? How could they all be fake?! Dad, we lost everything!” Luna’s vision blurred, and she nearly fainted. She and Killian had

The room was filled with whispers and disapproving murmurs. Darren, despite his reputation, was throwing a fit and blaming others for his mistake. It was embarrassing. Dustin had warned him twice, but he did not listen. After finding out the results, he blamed Dustin for it. Darren’s face turned pale. He was embarrassed. “Mr. Langley, let me handle this for you,” Killian said softly behind Darren and stepped forward. “Hey, are you very confident in your judgment?” Killian asked with a cold glare. “I never said that,” Dustin said calmly. “Whether you said it or not, it’s not important. The next event is an antique competition. Are you brave enough to face me?” Killian challenged Dustin with a smug face. “Of course, if you’re too scared, you don’t have to accept.” Everyone in the hall turned to watch. “What’s an antique competition?” Dustin frowned. “An antique competition is a betting game in the antique industry,” someone nearby said. “The organizers offer one real

The competition was the most important part of the Antiquities Trading Hall. Sometimes, it was even more eventful than the auction of the precious antiques. The competition today was definitely very interesting and attracted a lot of attention. The competitors included the son of the chairman of the powerful and rich Boreal Group in Hattan, and Darren Langley, a renowned authenticator, who was helping him. The other was a brilliant newcomer to the scene. This sort of match-up was unusual indeed. As the organizer began the proceedings, Dustin and Killian sat facing each other at a table. Darren and Luna were standing behind Killian and smiling sinisterly. They could already imagine the tantrum Dustin would throw when he lost. Meanwhile, Simone looked worried as she stood behind Dustin. Although she knew that Dustin had a lot of skills, experience and a discerning eye were not the only things needed when it came to these competitions. Besides, even the most impressive peop

“It’s fine. Trust me, I will win all the money back,” Dustin said reassuringly. Simone’s face froze. Was this not the sort of thing that gamblers said all the time? When had such words ever come true? Simone never expected that Dustin would say such a thing and suddenly felt troubled. “What? Do you still have the guts to keep competing?” Killian and the others asked gleefully. “Let’s continue,” Dustin said. ‘You really overestimate yourself. You don’t even know what’s coming,’ they thought. Dustin was falling right into their trap. They wore disdainful looks and did not think that Dustin was a threat. What did it matter that Dustin had a decent eye for antiques? They were still playing with him like a cat played with its prey. Simone really wanted to stop the competition, but the second round had already begun. This time, two jade sculptures were placed on the table. The jade was magnificent and translucent, and the sculptures were about five inches tall. “T

“For this round of the competition, you will be authenticating the most priceless items we have. It is a petrified coral. Its estimated value is 10 million dollars. You will each contribute 5 million dollars. You may bet 10 to 20 million dollars.” As per Killian’s request, the organizers skipped over the round with the Myrena Era pearls and brought out two specimens of petrified coral. The colors of the coral made everyone gasp. “Wow! I’m amazed that the Antiquities Trading Hall would use such a specimen as a competition item instead of auctioning it off. How generous!” “This is worth 10 million dollars. Whoever wins will make a killing!” “This is getting a bit out of hand…” Killian glared daggers at Dustin, and his gaze was vicious. “We’ll bet 20 million dollars. Do you dare to take the bet?” Dustin did not speak for a moment. “This isn’t about whether he dares to take the bet,” Luna said. “Look at how destitute he looks. It’s a miracle that he could fork out a millio

“I pick this one,” Killian said. “I won’t pick the one you did,” said Dustin and chuckled softly. Killian, Darren, and Luna shared a meaningful look. They already knew which item was the authentic one. They were definitely going to win. Dustin would definitely lose! After they both made their choices, the host was about to announce the correct answer. “Hold on,” Killian suddenly said. “I want to up the stakes.” He smiled sinisterly as he stared at Dustin. “Whoever loses has to crawl out of here like a dog.” Everyone glanced at each other. It seemed that Killian had a massive grudge against Dustin. It was no wonder that he had been targeting the latter from the start. The additional bet was a huge insult. It did not matter which of them lost. The loser would lose his dignity and become a laughingstock. “Mr. Fox, this has nothing to do with the rules of the Antiquities Trading Hall. You have the right to choose. It wouldn’t matter if you don’t take this bet,” t

“How could I have lost? There’s no way I could have lost!” Killian was in complete disbelief. He acted like he was in a daze. He was filled with confusion, and he could not figure it out. He had an inside person giving him clues and knew the correct answer, so how could he have lost? ‘This makes no sense! This isn’t right!’ Killian screamed to himself. His face turned vicious. He could accept that he had lost 20 million dollars, but it was the other bet that was the issue. If he really had to crawl and bark like a dog, he would have no dignity left. He was the son of the Prolereid Group’s chairman. He could not afford to be humiliated like this! “What’s going on? How could we have lost?” Darren and Luna were both in disbelief. Neither of them had expected that this would happen. “Killian, didn’t you say you have connections? What happened?” they asked Killian anxiously. “How am I supposed to know?” Killian yelled grumpily. “This shouldn’t have happened. What went wr

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
