"Of course not, Father. You will always be the head of the family." Trent smiled sheepishly. "Fine. Since you said that, I'll give you my opinion." Andrew surveyed the room. "Dustin has saved my life, as well as helped our family multiple times. We are in his debt, so anyone who tries to take him today will be going against me!""What?" The group shared dismayed glances. They never expected Andrew to stand up for Dustin during this crucial time. "Father, this bastard killed one of the Grants' daughters! He will only drag us deeper into this mess!" Trent rebutted. "Trent is right! We're doing this for the greater good of the family!" Jacob seconded. "You bunch say such lofty things when you're just cowards!" Andrew struck the floor with his cane forcefully. "The Grants have been stepping all over us, and instead of standing up against them, you choose to grovel and please them? What an embarrassment to our family!""Fath—""Silence!" Andrew cut off Trent's words. "Our family has go

The previous night had been a nightmare. Fortunately, the truth was out, and nothing much happened to him. Suddenly, Hector noticed something, and his smile stiffened. "Natasha, your face …" "It's just a minor injury," Natasha replied indifferently. "What happened?" Hector frowned. "A lot of things happened while you were gone, Hector." Jesicca calmly briefed him on what happened. Hector was livid. "The Grants again? They're crossing the line!"It was bad enough that they set him up, but they have even hurt his daughter? That was unacceptable!"Don't worry, Dad. I'm fine now." Natasha consoled."It's my fault, Natasha. You suffered because I was useless." Hector blamed himself. If he had known how despicable the Grants were, he would have never agreed to the marriage proposal. "Nonsense, Dad. We're lucky just to have you back. Let's talk more inside." Smiling, Natasha took her father's arm and walked into the estate.Just as they arrived at the meeting room, their butler rushed i

Ms. Larson's gaze was lustful as she peeked at Dustin, who met her eyes calmly. He was still racking his brain, trying to recall where he had seen her before. "Stop looking!" Dahlia quickly realized what was amiss and gave Dustin a warning kick. This was the second time. Dustin had grown bolder during the past few days since he was gone and didn't even bother being discreet anymore. "Ms. Nicholson, I don't understand these parts. Can you explain them to me?" Ms. Larson placed the document on the table and pointed at a section of the contract."Sure, let me explain." With a professional smile, Dahlia began explaining everything in detail to Ms. Lardon, who wasn't actually listening. Ms. Larson silently slipped off one of her heels and brushed her feet against Dustin's shoe lightly. "What?" Dustin raised an eyebrow, puzzled. When he lifted his head, he was met with Ms. Larson's teasing and flirty smile. He merely drew his eyes away and pretended to see nothing. Ms. Larson smirked a

"Are you trying to bribe me with just a villa? What do you take me for?" Dustin remained indifferent."Looks like it's time to get serious." Ms. Larson giggled. "How about this? I'll let you into some insider information. The abandoned buildings in Eastville are going to be redeveloped. Your investment will double tenfold if you can get ahold of them. Of course, how many buildings you can buy depends on your wealth. The more you buy, the more you'll earn. With enough capital, you'll easily earn anything between a billion dollars to eight billion. What do you think? Is the offer attractive enough?"Dustin narrowed his eyes. "Ms. Larson, you're very generous, but I still don't understand why you'd tell me about an opportunity that could rake in billions?"It was their first time meeting, yet Ms. Larson was being extremely generous, even going as far as to offer him a car, a house, and a chance to hit the jackpot. Although Dustin was quite a good-looking guy, it wasn't enough to charm eve

James merely held out a finger."Ten million?" Dahlia took a deep breath and tried to suppress her anger. "It's quite a lot, but at least we can still pay it back. Treat it as the price of a lesson learned.""You've got it wrong, Sis. It's not just ten million dollars; it's a hundred million." James mumbled weakly. "A hundred million?!" Dahlia paled. "Are you serious? Where did you get so much money in the first place?""We had a few million in savings. Then, we used our two villas to take out loans. Mom stole the remaining tens of thousands from you." James shrank back and confessed softly. "What?" Dahlia's blood boiled. "A—are you guys crazy? Taking loans and stealing? Who said you could do that?"Who in their right mind would sell their house to invest in a business? What a fool!"It's all my fault, Dahlia. I'm so sorry. I should die instead!" Florence moaned and began banging her head on the wall again, acting so well that she deserved an Oscar. "Enough!" Dahlia yelled. "Rather
