At around five o'clock that afternoon, Dustin, Rosalie, and Queenie headed to the Simmons Residence together. They went straight to Rosalie's residence after entering.When Dustin and Rosalie stepped into the living room, they saw a middle-aged couple—Rosalie's parents, Howard Simmons and Maybelle Ziggern.Dustin had not seen them when he came to collect Queenie's belongings. He assumed they were out at the time. Currently, they were sitting in the living room, enjoying coffee and laughing. They seemed to be in a good mood.Maybelle immediately stood up excitedly when she saw Rosalie. "Rosalie, you're back. Come and have some coffee. I have fantastic news to share with you."Rosalie could not help asking, "What fantastic news?""The heir of the Zubern family is interested in you."Rosalie frowned. "Which heir of the Zubern family?""Who else could it be? The eldest heir of the Zubern family is undoubtedly Donald Zubern, the nephew of Samuel Lonne—the chairman of Fire Ocean Group. He sa

The Simmons family were excited when they heard Lionel's remark. They thought the Walsh Group was impressive for being able to work with the Vulcan Group. They planned to hasten Melissa's marriage into the Walsh family. That way, the Simmons family's status could rise significantly. Even if they couldn’t become a billion-dollar family, with the Walsh family's connection, becoming a hundred-million-dollar family seemed achievable.Dustin was somewhat impressed by Lionel; he had bluffed without a second thought. Even a ten-billion-dollar company was not qualified to work with Vulcan Group, let alone the Walsh Group, which had a market value of only 150 million. However, the Simmons family believed in Lionel. Dustin sighed—they had limited experience. Anyone shrewd could see through such an unreliable lie.Rosalie saw through it but did not say anything. She knew no one would believe her, and she would likely face backlash instead if she pointed it out.Zachary laughed heartily, "Meliss

Lionel said with a smile, "Mr. Zachary Simmons, I plan to take you, Melissa, Mr. Kevin Simmons, and Mrs. Fanny with me tomorrow night."Zachary, Kevin, Fanny, and Melissa were overjoyed, "Lionel, thank you so much.""Dad, Mom, Grandpa, Melissa, I want to go too," Melissa's older brother and the Simmons family's eldest heir, Zander Simmons, quickly said."Dad, I want to go too," James quickly chimed in.They all did not want to miss a billion-dollar family dinner party.Zachary looked at Lionel and requested, "Lionel, can you get another silver invitation card?""Lionel, please get another silver invitation card. My big brother wants to go too," Melissa said coquettishly.Lionel thought disdainfully, 'Do you think silver invitation cards are sold in the supermarket and available for anyone to get?' However, to make himself seem capable, he did not refuse but said, "Silver invitation cards are very hard to get, but I'll try my best." He then took out his phone and made a call. S

After dinner, Dustin, Rosalie, and Queenie packed their bags and left the Simmons Residence, returning to their house. Rosalie wanted Howard and Maybelle to move in with them, but they were reluctant to leave the Simmons Residence, believing that moving out would mean they would lose the inheritance to the Simmons family's fortune.The night passed peacefully.Around 6 PM the next day, Dustin drove Queenie, Rosalie, Howard, and Maybelle to Holt Residence with Rosalie's second-hand car."Are you sure you have an invitation to the Holt family's party?" Maybelle asked worriedly. She did not trust Dustin much.Dustin reassured her, "Maybelle, don't worry. I can get you all inside."Rosalie chimed in, "Mom, trust Dustin. He would never lie to us."Maybelle said gloomily, "Dustin, I'll trust you this once. If you trick us, you'll divorce Rosalie tomorrow."Around 7, Dustin arrived with the four at the entrance to the Holt family's mansion. The mansion was brightly lit, with luxury car

Lionel looked at the wealthy heirs who were defending him and said excitedly, "Mr. Swazzen, Mr. Zingster, and Mr. Thompstone, long time no see. This punk is just a son-in-law of the Simmons family. He's also a jobless loser. He somehow stole a golden invitation card and came to join the Holt family's birthday party. Isn't that despicable?""I thought he was some prestigious heir. Turns out he's just a freeloading son-in-law. No wonder he's so pathetic." The group of heirs was disdainful.Once they learned that Dustin had no background, they became even more brazen, ready to beat him up at any moment. Bullying the weak and fearing the strong was their nature.Zachary, Melissa, and the rest of the Simmons family were excited to see the usually arrogant heirs supporting Lionel. "Lionel's amazing." They thought they could join high society as long as they followed Lionel, so they decided to make him a son-in-law of the Simmons family no matter what it took.However, Howard and Maybelle

The crowd turned their heads to see Sebastian hurrying over expressionlessly.Chester hurried forward to greet him, "Uncle, you're here."Lionel followed closely, respectfully nodding to Sebastian. "Hello, Mr. Sebastian Holt. I'm Lionel Walsh from Walsh Group. We met at the charity gala last time. I wonder if you remember me."Zachary was unwilling to be outdone. "Sebastian, I'm Zachary Simmons from Simmons Group. I once had coffee with your father."Sebastian ignored them, glaring at Chester and chiding, "Do you know what you're doing? Why are you arbitrarily kicking out my guests?"Seeing Sebastian's expression, Chester became uneasy and quickly explained, "Uncle, this guy isn't a guest. He stole a golden invitation card and sneaked in to freeload. What's even more ridiculous is that he claimed you gave it to him.""I did personally give Mr. Summers his invitation card. Do you have a problem with that?" Sebastian asked sternly."How is that possible? He's just a worthless lose

Rosalie saw that the emerald cross pendant was of high quality and exquisite craftsmanship, indicating it was an expensive luxury item. She quickly said, "Mr. Holt, this is too valuable. We can't accept it."Sebastian smiled and replied, "It's nothing. Mr. Summers is my savior. Giving his daughter a pendant is nothing."Dustin had brought down Flynn Real Estate, indirectly avenging the Holt family and granting them the development rights to Southkey Plaza, significantly boosting Holt Group's influence. In a way, Dustin was indeed Holt Group's savior.Dustin said, "Rosalie, since it's a gift from Mr. Holt, accept it."Howard and Maybelle also advised, "Yeah, Rosalie. It's rare for Mr. Holt to give Queenie a gift. How can we refuse?" They also realized the pendant was worth at least 45 thousand dollars, so they did not want to let it go.Rosalie had no choice but to thank Sebastian and accept the emerald cross pendant.Dustin glanced at Sebastian and said, "Mr. Holt, you can go abo

Lionel spoke with an icy tone, saying, "Have someone from the Serpent Gang take care of him."Zachary, Melissa, and the rest felt a chill run down their spines.Although the Serpent Gang was a small-time group in Oceania, they had a reputation for their viciousness.Their leader, Tri-Serpent, was particularly known for his cruelty and twisted nature.Anyone unfortunate enough to be captured by Tri-Serpent would endure unimaginable torment until their demise.If the Serpent Gang targeted Dustin, he would be utterly defenseless.Melissa stared at Lionel in astonishment, her eyes wide. "Lionel, do you actually know Tri-Serpent, the leader of the Serpent Gang?"Lionel boasted with a smirk, "Absolutely, we're close. We hang out and have drinks together all the time."Melissa exclaimed with excitement, "That's incredible! Call him immediately, have him snatch that loser Dustin, and make sure that mean girl Rosalie gets what she deserves too.""Wait a second, it's late. Tri-Serpent i
