Chapter 697

Author: Autumn Rain
“Dustin…”

After Simone and the other two people walked out from the Langley family, they looked for Dustin everywhere. They called him and met up a little further away from the Langley family villa.

“I didn’t feel like wasting time arguing with the main family, so I came out here to wait for you,” Dustin said.

“It’s alright. Did everything go well with the National Drug Authority?” Simone asked.

“Easily resolved.” Dustin smiled faintly.

“How did you end up becoming the second son of the Fawkes family? That’s an ultra-wealthy family from Central Harbor!” Simone asked.

Dustin then explained the events of the past to the three of them.

“I see. Honestly, I don’t think you should bother with the Fawkes family,” Simone said seriously.

“Even though one-third of the assets of a wealthy family like the Fawkes family is a staggering amount, the infighting and deceit in such families are all too common. It’s better not to get involved,” David said.

“Don’t worry, I have no interest

    “If this continues, it won’t just be an economic issue anymore. We might all end up behind bars one day,” someone said in a panic. “I just received news that the Wilder family has been raided.”“What?” The main family members were horrified. They did not expect Dustin to act so quickly. In just one day, he had brought down a prominent family in Hattan. The main Langley family had also been involved in shady dealings over the years. If those were exposed, few of them would escape unscathed. “At this point, what else can we do?” Conan felt helpless. “Let’s go, all of you, follow me to meet the branch family.” Following the address they had received, they arrived at a luxurious villa where Dustin and the others were staying. “Isn’t this Skyler’s villa?” The main family members were stunned.“It’s no wonder they could drive Skyler’s luxurious car to the Langley family villa. We should have realized it earlier…” Darren said and sighed. When they looked back, many details had h

    “My Liege, we didn’t find any foster daughter or woman whose surname is Fox in the Hanks family in Hattan.” A few days later, Drake finally reported to Dustin, which made Dustin feel a bit disappointed. “Continue with the investigation! If you can’t find her in the Hanks family, go on with the second and third intel until you find out about all the Hanks families!” he said seriously. “Yes.” Drake bowed. “We found that the day before Wilhem, the head of the black market in the North Border branch, passed away, he met someone from the Mabry family in Hattan. That person was the son of the Mabry family…”Dustin frowned.The Mabry family in Hattan… … Euphoria Lounge, located in the bustling heart of Hattan, was the biggest and most upscale bar and dance club in the city. At 8 p.m., Dustin arrived alone. He walked straight into the bar and sat at the counter. “Give me the strongest drink you have,” Dustin said indifferently. The bartender raised his eyebrows before he smil

    Even the boss of Majestic Hotel had to submit to Dustin. He was indeed mysterious and terrifying. None of her classmates at the reunion knew Dustin’s real identity, but all of them felt that he was extraordinary. He must be someone that ordinary people like them could not even think of knowing. The reunion had completely changed Devina’s opinion of Dustin. She no longer dared to look down on him. The shadowy boss of Majestic Hotel drove a luxury car that was worth millions of dollars. This was someone she could only deeply admire from afar. Devina never expected to run into Dustin here. Besides, she noticed that something seemed wrong with Dustin. He did not look like he was in a good mood. “Dustin, did you come alone? Why are you here drinking by yourself? Where’s Shawna? Is she here too?” Devina asked. Dustin did not answer, and he looked tipsy.Through the corner of his eyes, he saw the bartender slip a white pill into her fruit cocktail.Devina was completely unaw

    “You’re still acting tough?” Devina glared at the bartender. She was furious that he had the nerve to talk back to Dustin without even a hint of fear. He was just a mere bartender. If he knew who he was messing with, he would probably wet himself on the spot. “Yes, I spiked the drink! So?” The bartender smirked and met Devina’s gaze without a shred of fear. “Miss Devina, you’re a regular here. You think I don’t know what kind of person you are?” He raised his eyebrows at her. “Aren’t you just trying to land yourself a rich guy? I’m doing you a favor.” Devina’s face darkened. Yes, she wanted money, but she had her own standards. She refused to be set up like this. She was not looking to be some rich man’s disposable mistress. Instead, she wanted to marry into wealth. “Shut up! Don’t insult me like that!” she snapped at the bartender furiously. The bartender let out a cold chuckle. “Do you even know who told me to spike your drink?” he asked. “Who?” Devin

    The bartender and Brad froze for a second before they burst into laughter. “What are you laughing at? It’s the truth!” Devina insisted. “Pfft… Majestic Hotel’s owner? Hahaha!” Their laughter grew louder. They naturally assumed Devina was bluffing. Dustin looked no different from the other washed-up nobodies who frequented this place. How could he be the owner of Majestic Hotel? The owner of Majestic Hotel could practically rule over Lannopolis. There was no way this young loser was the owner of Majestic Hotel. What a joke! “Devina, at least make your lies believable.” Mr. Henson finally stopped laughing. “I’ve had the honor of seeing the owner of Majestic Hotel before. He’s a middle-aged man with a commanding presence. You’re telling me this kid is the owner?” “The man you saw is just the face of the hotel, and he answers to Dustin. Dustin is the real boss behind the scenes!” Devina shot back. The bartender and Brad laughed even harder. She was just rambl

    “You little punk, you’ve got a death wish, huh?” the bartender bared his teeth and shouted while clutching his head in pain. “Do you even know what kind of place Euphoria Lounge is? How dare you barge in here and cause trouble like this? You’ve got no idea who you’re messing with! “You even dared to hit Mr. Henson! You’re done for! It won’t be long before you regret this!” Dustin watched the bartender’s outburst with an amused smile. It was interesting to Dustin. He was just a mere bartender, but he acted so aggressive and cocky. It was one thing for them to be involved in shady business, but to get exposed and then turn even more vicious without a shred of fear? It seemed Euphoria Lounge was quite a ruthless place… “Arghhh… ahh!!!” The stout Brad was still sprawled on the floor and wailing like a slaughtered pig. His agonized screams were grating on the ears. “Shut up! You’re getting on my nerves,” Dustin snapped and frowned. “You b*stard! You’re going to pay f

    The scene left a few people gasping in shock. At that moment, seven attackers from the back had already reached Dustin. They threw punches, kicks, and elbowed him to try to incapacitate him. An average person would not stand a chance against the barrage. There was no way to dodge so many attacks at once. Yet, Dustin’s eyes gleamed. Instead of retreating, his hands shot out with astonishing speed and strength. He effortlessly blocked each strike from the seven attackers. … His movements were unnervingly fast. With nothing but his bare hands, he neutralized all seven attackers’ blows. Then, his fists lashed out in all directions. “Argh…” “Ugh…” Pained screams filled the air as the seven men were sent flying and crashed in all directions. “Holy sh*t!” Several men in the crowd gaped in disbelief. Some of the women covered their mouths as their eyes widened. One man against so many… Dustin had not even left his spot. Meanwhile, all eight men were sprawled

    As soon as the bartender made a call, the entire Euphoria Lounge sprang into action. Wave after wave of men surged toward the bar. Each looked more menacing than the last. The other patrons had already backed away to keep their distance. No one dared to get too close. Yet not a single person left the place. They were all waiting to watch the show. After all, it was the first time anything this dramatic had happened at Euphoria Lounge. This was the first time someone had dared to openly challenge the Mabry family in Hattan. “That guy’s the one causing trouble at the lounge?” In no time, more than thirty men had gathered around the counter. They formed a tight circle around Dustin. The sheer pressure of their cold and piercing stares would have made an ordinary man’s legs turn to jelly. “Dustin, maybe we should leave for now?” Devina was intimidated by the big group. She knew Dustin was strong, but taking on so many people alone was an entirely different story. No

    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
