Out Of Luck In Love/Tranquil Phoenix
Dustin did not manage to avoid it in time and took the punch square to the face. He staggered a few steps backward.At the sight of him getting hit, Ninian panicked and ran over. “Are you okay, Dustin?”Conan had used practically all of his strength in that punch.Dustin’s mouth was bloody. In a frenzy, Ninian took out some tissue from her pocket to wipe off the blood at the corner of his mouth.“Does it hurt?”“I’m okay. It doesn’t hurt.”Dustin grabbed the tissue from her hand and smiled at her.At that moment, the final defense in Ninian’s heart crumbled.She turned around and glared at Conan.“Have you lost your mind? Do you even know what you just did?”“Do you really care about him that much?”At the sight of Ninian caring about Dustin so greatly, Conan’s heart hurt.In the past, she would only show such concern to him. When had she started worrying about another man?“Yes. I care about him because he’s not my boyfriend; he’s my husband!” Ninian held Dustin’s hand ti

“He seems to be truly regretting letting you go.”Dustin saw the dejection in Ninian’s eyes and thought that she still longed for Conan. He asked, “Are you okay?”Ninian looked away and checked the corner of his lips.When she saw that he was no longer bleeding, she felt at ease.“I’m fine.”At the sight of Ninian worrying about him, Dustin was delighted. “Are you worried about me?”“You’re my husband. Who else am I supposed to worry about if not you?” Ninian then frowned and said in displeasure, “Conan must have really gone mad. How could he hit you?”“He really does want you back.”Dustin wanted to know Ninian’s thoughts about this. He was worried that she might regret marrying him.“I won’t go back,” Ninian stated without hesitation. “My love for him died a long time ago.”“Okay.” Dustin ducked his head to hide the barely noticeable smile on his lips. But Ninian still noticed it. “How could you smile when you were just hit?”“If I can get you to worry about me after bei

Once Dustin posted on Instagram that he was married, his best friends all asked him out for a drink and also specifically requested him to bring Ninian along.Since he knew that Ninian did not like such gatherings, Dustin did not want to bring her over, but Ninian said, “I’m going. Since we’re married, it’s only right for me to meet your friends.”More importantly, some part of her genuinely wanted to be with Dustin.So, meeting his friends to get to know him was a good plan.Blue Duke was the most luxurious entertainment club in Rivervale.Conan arrived early in the room on the second floor.When the people saw him, they started teasing him.“I thought you would never show up at the same gathering as Dustin. Why are you here today?”“Where’s Rose? Did you decide to not bring her along because you know you’ll meet Ninian today?”Conan had already downed a few shots at this point. He glared at them, and they immediately shut up.“Conan.” When Rose showed up, Conan’s expression

“C-Conan?”That man was not expecting Conan, so he was shocked.“Did you just say that Dustin and Ninian didn’t marry out of love?”“I have a friend who’s good friends with Dustin’s assistant. That’s what he heard.”Conan was delighted, and he felt much better.He was just about to head back when he remembered that this man had basically called Ninian unwanted. So, he picked up the bucket beside him and threw all the water in it at the man.“What’s with this?!”“If I ever hear you implying that Ninian is unwanted again, I won’t just be throwing dirty water at you!”Just then, Ninian came out of the female washroom.Upon seeing him, Ninian rolled her eyes in resignation.She should have waited for him to return to the room before she came out.Conan blocked her path and smiled.“Ninian, you didn’t marry Dustin out of love, did you? That means that your marriage isn’t real, is it?”Ninian was shocked. How did Conan learn about this?They should be the only ones who knew thi

Before Conan could answer, a few police officers suddenly showed up.“You must be Rose Charlemagne.”Rose’s heart leaped to her throat.She could not care less about everything else and wanted to run, but the police officers grabbed her and pinned her against the wall.“You’re under suspicion for subornation of bodily harm for the case at Crimson. Please come with us for an investigation.”“I didn’t do it!” Rose panicked. Why was this happening even though she had cleaned up all traces of her involvement? Did Dustin really do something?“Mr. Grant, thank you for the clues you provided. We will be sure to figure out the truth of the case!”Ninian frowned. She thought that the case had been closed with no satisfying end. Had Dustin actually been looking into this?She felt touched, and Ninian held Dustin’s hand tighter.Conan asked in puzzlement, “Subordination of bodily harm? What did you do?”“What did she do?” Ninian sneered. Even at this point, Conan still did not know what

“Are you saying we’ve met before?”“I met you during graduation. At that time, I lost my valedictorian speech, and you helped me find it.”As Ninian stared at Dustin, her mind returned to the time when she was still studying at university.At that time, she was one of the two valedictorians of her graduating class. While she was memorizing her speech backstage, she ran into the boy who was also preparing for his speech.He lost his speech, and Ninian spent a long time helping him search for it. In the end, they found it in a corner.Since she was really nervous at that time, she did not remember what that boy looked like.So, Dustin was that boy?“You’re that boy?”“You remember now?”Dustin smiled. “Unfortunately, we graduated. When I tried looking for you, I could no longer find any information about you. Then, a few years ago, I saw you during a gathering for a project, and I finally learned that you’d become Conan’s secretary.”“I see. So, that’s how it was.”Ninian purs
