"What?" Dustin frowned when Florence's gaze swept toward him. "Why are you looking at me? Are you telling me to be the scapegoat? What the fuck?" he thought. "Dustin …" Florence forced a smile. She took an apple out of her fruit basket and handed it to Dustin. "Aren't you hungry? Here, have an apple.""What are you trying to do?" Dustin looked at her warily. It only raised suspicions more with Florence going out of her way to be kind to him."Well, you heard what we said, didn't you?" Florence forced out a sweet, kind smile. "You've always been a kind person. I'm sure you can't bear to see us lose our money like this, so I hope you can do us a favor.""What favor?" Dustin had his guard up. "Don't you know a few rich women? Why don't you help us sell off those abandoned buildings?""You're asking me to scam people for you?" Dustin raised an eyebrow. "How could you say that?" Florence feigned innocence. "We're not deceiving anyone; we're simply repurposing waste. Those wealthy people

"Oh, Dustin. You sure are stupid. How can you treasure such worthless buildings?" Florence grinned smugly. At first, she thought she had wasted all her money, but God blessed them by sending them a scapegoat. "Thanks, Dustin, or else we'd be doomed." Florence grinned. "You're such a saint, Dustin. I must say, I'm impressed!" James exclaimed delightedly and gave the other man a thumbs-up."Remember to treat us to a meal once you've made your fortune." Victoria mocked. They had been unfortunate to be swindled by Terrence, but they found someone to take the fall. It was their stroke of luck, or they would have lost all their money."I hope you don't come to regret your decision." Dustin wore a meaningful smile."Regret?" They exchanged amused glances and laughed even louder. How could Dustin still not know that something was wrong? An idiot like him deserved to be scammed."Dustin, what on earth are you thinking? You shouldn't be so reckless even if you have some money, right?" Dahli

"Mom!" Ruby was shocked when Mrs. Xenos suddenly fainted. She quickly helped her up and tried to wake her up while crying for help. However, her mother remained completely unresponsive. "Where's the doctor?" Ruby carried Mrs. Xenos on her back and ran back into the hospital. A bunch of doctors and nurses heard her pleas and quickly came over to perform first aid. An hour later, at the entrance of the emergency room. "Ruby!" A suited man ran over, accompanied by several bodyguards."Dad! You're finally here!" Ruby was so relieved to see him. "Mom suddenly fainted just now, and they're still trying to resuscitate her, but the doctor said that things weren't looking good and even asked me to sign a do-not-resuscitate order.""Why did she suddenly faint?" George Xenos frowned. "I don't know either. She was completely fine earlier." Ruby looked nervous as well. "Hurry! Go to Garrison Hospital and bring Dr. Alden immediately!" George ordered the bodyguard closest to him."Yes, Sir!" Hi

"S—she's awake?" Everyone was amazed to see that Mrs. Xenos had come around, and they stared at her wide-eyed with disbelief. Nobody had ever thought that this young man would be able to cure Mrs. Xenos of something that even Dr. Alden found impossible. And he managed to do so with just several needles! The entire process had been nothing special and was just plain old needling techniques, but it was exactly because of how simple everything had been that they found it shocking."H—how is this possible?" Dr. Alden was completely blown away by what he just witnessed. That was cerebral congestion, and she had been diagnosed as a vegetative patient, for goodness sake! It was such a complicated condition, and he managed to cure her with just several needles? He must be joking!"She's awake! She's awake! Mom's awake!" It took Ruby a while to register that her mother was finally awake, but when she snapped back to her senses, she jumped with joy. She had been utterly devastated when she got t

"You?" Trent was caught off guard when he saw Kate step forward. He had never thought that his daughter would come forward in the family's time of need."That sounds good. I think Kate is indeed a suitable candidate. We should consider letting her take Natasha's place for the marriage alliance," Jacob vouched for Kate. The rest of the family nodded in agreement when they saw Jacob backing Kate up. They were convinced that Kate was just about as good as Natasha, both in looks and abilities. It really wasn't a bad idea to let her marry Tyler."Kate, this is no laughing matter. You should consider it carefully," Hector warned sternly."Uncle Hector, I've given it much thought. Since Natasha is reluctant to marry Tyler, I'll do it," Kate announced boldly."Are you really willing to sacrifice yourself for the family?" Hector asked once again."Well, someone has got to do it, so it might as well be me. This is my responsibility as a Harmon!" Kate declared righteously. Although she put on a
