"Since your mother can't be bothered to teach you manners, then let me do the honors!" Dustin grabbed him by the hair and lifted him.
Then, he punched him several times.

James' face soon turned swollen.
"How dare you hit my son!" Florence screamed as she tried to help her son.

"Get off!" Dustin turned and glared at her. The glare was so intense that Florence froze in her tracks.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:12 | Report Abuse

"Get off!"
Those two words were enough to scare Florence motionless. She had never thought that Dustin could be so scary when he was angry. He had always been so mild-tempered around them. He now looked like he could crush her like to crush an ant.

When she finally got her wits back, Florence began screaming, "Help! Help! He's murdering my son!"

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:13 | Report Abuse

Soon, the Quine Group's security guards gathered around them.
"What happened, Mrs. Nicholson?" The head of the security guards recognized Florence and stood at her side immediately.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:13 | Report Abuse

"Tom! Catch him at once! I want him to pay for hurting my son!" Florence yelled.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:14 | Report Abuse

"How dare you cause trouble in front of the Quine Group? Have you lost your mind?" Tom waved his hand. All the security guards surrounded Dustin.

This was their chance to flatter to the president's mother. If they did well now, then they might get a promotion and a raise.
"What are you waiting for? Catch him!"
Just as they were about to act, a voice sounded.

"What do you think you're doing?"
A curvaceous woman in a silver dress barged into the crowd with her bodyguards. With her lips painted a fiery red, she was stunningly beautiful. Every move she made was alluring. "She's gorgeous!"

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:16 | Report Abuse

The security guards stared at her, frozen. She was one of the most attractive women they had ever seen.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:16 | Report Abuse

"Mr. Rhys, are you okay?"
The woman ignored the looks she was getting and headed straight toward Dustin.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:17 | Report Abuse

"Who are you?"
Dustin narrowed his eyes at her, his anger dissipating.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:18 | Report Abuse

"Nice to meet you, my name is Natasha Harmon. Mr. Anderson sent me here," the woman said with a smile.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:18 | Report Abuse

At this, the security guards began whispering amongst themselves.
"Natasha Harmon? Is she the heiress of the Harmon family?"

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:19 | Report Abuse

"Oh, my God! Why is she here?"
They were all shocked. Natasha Harmon was a household name around the city. She was pretty, influential, and smart. At 22 years old, she had already gained control of the Harmon Group and built her own business empire within five years.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:20 | Report Abuse

"Ah, it's you." Dustin nodded.
He had heard of Natasha before, but he hadn't expected her to be involved with Hunter.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:21 | Report Abuse

"Mr. Rhys, please wait in the car. I'll deal with this."
Natasha snapped her fingers. Behind her, her four bodyguards whipped out their sticks and advanced toward the crowd. Even though there were just four of them, their threatening auras was enough to make the security guards back off. After all, they knew that the Harmon family only hired trained bodyguards.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:21 | Report Abuse

"After you, Mr. Rhys."
Seeing that no one else dared to move, Natasha smiled and held out a hand to lead Dustin to the car. Without a word, Dustin picked up the pieces of his necklace and left with Natasha. No one dared to stop him.

"What's wrong? What do we pay you for? Why did you just let them go?" Florence yelled when she realized what was happening.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-21 17:22 | Report Abuse

"Mrs. Nicholson, she's Natasha Harmon. We don't dare to offend her!" The head of security lamented. None of them dared to lay a finger on Natasha.

Economy now is very bad.

Agreed... Growing is key

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:32 | Report Abuse

"You don't dare to offend her, but you're fine offending my daughter?" Florence demanded.
The security guards looked at each other, not daring to speak.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:34 | Report Abuse

"What happened?"
Dahlia and Lyra came out to see what the commotion was.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:35 | Report Abuse

"Dahlia! You're here! Look at how badly your brother's been hurt!"
As soon as Florence saw her, she began to cry, as if she was the one who had been punched.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:36 | Report Abuse

"What happened? Who did this?"
Seeing her brother's wounds, Dahlia's expression became chilly.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:37 | Report Abuse

"Who else? It's that Dustin!" Florence cried.
"We met him just now. James picked up a crystal necklace that he dropped and tried to give it back to him, but he tried to turn it around and said that your brother grabbed it from him.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:37 | Report Abuse

After some argument, he punched James hardly! My poor James, he just did what he thought was right. What has he done to deserve this?"

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:38 | Report Abuse

She began crying more dramatically.
"Dustin?" Dahlia frowned. "He's always been mild-tempered. Why would he mess with James for no reason? What did you do?"

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:44 | Report Abuse

"What do you mean by this?" Florence looked angered. "Do you not believe your mother?"

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:45 | Report Abuse

"¡ iust want to know the truth," Dahlia said.
After three years of marriage, she knew Dustin's personality well. He was normally calm and collected and rarely lost his temper. He wouldn't just get into trouble with people for no reason.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:45 | Report Abuse

"Look at your brother! Is the truth not clear enough? If you don't believe me, ask the security guards. They saw everything!" Saying this, Florence gave the security guards a look.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:46 | Report Abuse

"Ms. Nicholson, your mother is right. That guy there was the one who hurt your brother. If it weren't for us, she would've fallen a casualty of his punches, too."
The head of security understood his assignment perfectly.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:47 | Report Abuse

"You hear that? I'm not wronging that person!" Florence continued. "I've told you before, that Rhys guy is not a good person. He's a hypocrite. Look at what he's done right after you divorced him. He even has a new woman now!"

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 19:47 | Report Abuse

Hearing this, Dahlia frowned. She was unsure of what to think. Could Dustin really do such a thing? Maybe he was furious about the divorce and wanted to get back at her through her brother. If so, then she had to admit that she had misjudged him!

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:06 | Report Abuse

"Mom, take James to the hospital. I'II deal with this."
After a moment's silence, Dahlia finally made her decision.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:07 | Report Abuse

"Dahlia, you must defend your brother! Don't let him off so easily!" Florence said hatefully.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:08 | Report Abuse

"Don't worry, I know what I should do." Dahlia nodded, gesturing for two guards to send Florence and James to the hospital.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:08 | Report Abuse

"What do you think, Lyra?"
Dahlia rubbed her temples. She felt a headache coming on.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:08 | Report Abuse

"It's obvious, isn't it? It was Dustin who assaulted them first. The security guards were witnesses, so that can't be a lie," Lyra said.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:09 | Report Abuse

"But my mother's not exactly an honest person..." Dahlia began. She knew her mother and brother well. They were a hot-tempered and ruthless duo.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:10 | Report Abuse

"Either way, it's still wrong for him to throw the first punch!" Lyra said righteously. "Even if there was a misunderstanding, why couldn't he talk it out?

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:10 | Report Abuse

Moreover, it was James that he beat up. Your brother! He didn't think of how you would feel when he attacked your family. This alone is proof that he's not a good person!"

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:11 | Report Abuse

Dahlia's frown deepened along with her doubts.
Lyra was right.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:11 | Report Abuse

Even if her mother and brother were rude and unreasonable, there was no reason for Dustin to assault them physically, nor was there any reason for him to hurt James so badly. It would seem like her decision to divorce him was right.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:12 | Report Abuse

"You can't just let this go, Ms. Nicholson. You have to teach him a lesson!" Lyra said.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:13 | Report Abuse

Hearing this, Dahlia became angry. She took out her phone and called Dustin. At the same time, Dustin was sitting in a silver Bentley and frowned when he saw the call coming in. Despite his reluctance, he still picked up the call.

Posted by Zuliana > 2023-12-22 20:13 | Report Abuse

"Dustin, I need an explanation!" Dahlia demanded.

"What explanation?"
