John felt like thousands of wild horses were trampling his heart as he watched his leader surrender. Didn't he say they would rather die than disgrace the gang's principles? Didn't he say they'd die trying? Did he just fucking change his mind in a blink of an eye? Now that he could live, what would happen to him?"Hey, didn't you say we'd die together? Why did you suddenly change your mind?" John was shocked."Hey man, don't blame me. I have a family to feed; I can't die yet. Besides, you're already infertile. "There isn't a purpose to your life anymore. I'll take care of your siblings for you. You may leave in peace," The stubbled man said compassionately."You asshole! You've betrayed our gang's principles! You should fucking die!" John was furious as he unsheathed his knife and attempted to stab the stubbled man.The stubbled man quickly reacted as he picked up a brick from the floor and aimed straight at John's head."Bam!" It was a muted but sickening sound. The brick
The stubbled man trembled and fell backward. He had never expected that."I don't have to keep my promise with a piece of trash like you," Dustin replied coldly.After that, he stepped over the corpse and walked toward Lana. He untied her and took off the blindfold covering her eyes. He asked gently, "Ms. Camron, are you alright?""I'm fine. It's a good thing you arrived in time. If not, I would have been defiled by these animals." Lana let out a sigh of relief. She might have seen a lot, but she had never gone through any experience like this. If Dustin had not saved her in time, they would have sold her off to another place after defiling her. It would be terrible if that happened!"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Dustin felt a little guilty. He had upset Scott, so Scott kidnapped Lana to get back at him."What are you talking about? We're partners! We'll go through everything together! Isn't that right?" Lana laughed casually and continued, "Besides, it's all Scott's fault
The news about the Black Grizzy Gang's doom spread quickly throughout the slum. The gangs who initially had set Dustin as their target avoided him like the plague.The Black Grizzly Gang was one of the major gangs in the slum. No one expected them, especially their elite fighters, to be killed in the blink of an eye. Those who knew what was good for them wouldn't dare to mess with Dustin.With Lana by his side, Dustin drove out of the slum without any trouble. The story of the mighty warrior began to spread in the slum.After half an hour, they arrived at the entrance of Lana's private mansion."Hey, Handsome, do you want to come in for a while?" As Lana got out of the car, she invited Dustin in with a smile. Her dress was torn. Her tattered clothes revealed her fair legs and sexy body."Thanks, but no thanks. It's already late. You should get some rest." Dustin rejected politely."Handsome, I'm a little scared to be alone now. How about you stay here with me for tonight? If
"You look pretty even when you were young." Dustin praised politely. Even though Lana captured everyone's attention now, she was obviously eye-catching since she was young."Well, the past is the past." Lana opened her fridge, turned around to look at Dustin, and asked, "Hey, Handsome, what do you want to drink?""I'm good with anything," Dustin replied."Alright then." Lana took out a dozen cans of beer and put them on the coffee table. She also put some snacks on the table to go with the beer."Here's to us!" Lana opened two cans of chilled beer and gave one to Dustin. After they chinked cans, they started drinking happily."This feels great!" Lana downed half a can of beer in one go. She smiled happily as her eyes crinkled in joy. The pleasure of having chilled beer on a hot summer's evening was beyond description."Hey, Handsome, what do you think of me?" Lana drank and asked with a smile."A kind beauty." Dustin gave her a simple answer. They had worked together seamles
While listening to Lana's story, Dustin couldn't help but be astonished. Despite their privileged lives, some daughters of wealthy families still had to contribute value to their families. Either they excelled in business, continuously earning profits for the family, or were strikingly beautiful, securing benefits through an arranged marriage. Women like Lana, both beautiful and outstanding, were crucial pawns for their families to climb the social ladder. Therefore, she couldn't decide her marriage on her own. After all, the Camron family relied on her, and she carried the weight of the entire family.Dustin finally understood why Lana was willing to endure gossip and tarnish her reputation. Ultimately, she had no choice, being forced into a situation beyond her control."Here, cheers," Dustin said, raising his can."Cheers!" Lana smiled, clinked their beer cans, and finished the remaining beer. She then opened two more cans, handing one to Dustin."I consider myself lucky t
As if it was a fairy tail, Natasha turned out to be the granddaughter of the Duke of Lachshire. Her newfound identity commanded respect, as Natasha effortlessly overshadowed Lana. For a moment, Lana couldn't shake the feeling of inferiority. However, realizing that such an outstanding woman had chosen Dustin, Lana felt reassured in her judgment."Honestly, it caught me off guard because I didn't know she was the Duke of Lachshire's granddaughter when I first met her," Dustin shrugged."So, you lucked out big time?" Lana teased."Something along those lines." Dustin chuckled without explicitly confirming or denying it."Cheers to you two and a whole life of happiness!" Lana raised her beer, clinked it with Dustin's, and then downed it in one go. The two continued their conversation over drinks, feeling even more at ease without the complexities of a romantic relationship.Lana had tucked away her feelings for Dustin deep in her heart. In the grand scheme of life, regrets were i
"Ms. Camron, don't move a muscle. You should be careful; bullets don't care who they hit." A chilling voice came from behind Lana.Lana turned around to the ominous sight of a gun barrel and a menacing face."Who are you? You think you can just waltz in here and stir up trouble in the Camron family?" Lana demanded, her tone firm."Ms. Camron, no need to get all riled up. We're just following orders," the gunman replied with indifference."Orders? Whose orders?" Lana pressed."Clearly, they're my orders."At that moment, a slim man in a suit, wearing a stern expression, entered the meeting room. It was Scott from the Mosey family."You?" Seeing Scott, Lana's expression shifted immediately. She had just escaped from the trouble at the slums. She didn't expect Scott to track her down so quickly."Ms. Camron, we will meet again." Scott grinned as he approached, lifting Lana's chin with his finger. "Quite the looker. I can't help but be a little intrigued.""Mr. Mosey, we haven't
Despite his smile, Scott looked far from trustworthy."What does Mr. Mosey want me to do?" Lana suddenly felt uneasy."Simple. Tomorrow, find an excuse to invite Dustin for dinner. Slip this bottle of Tranqurin into his drink. "Once it kicks in, you can bail, and I'll handle the rest," Scott explained, putting a black medicine bottle on the table containing Tranqurin. It was a drug designed to take down martial artist masters."Mr. Mosey, please think this through. Is it necessary to go this far?" Lana's face soured.Anyone could figure out what Scott was scheming. If she drugged Dustin, she'd be part of the scheme."Far?" Scott Mosey laughed, a mocking grin on his face. "Ms. Camron, this is just the tip of the iceberg. I made many other more ruthless plans; interested to hear them? "Like bankrupting your Camron family or framing you all and tossing you into prison. How about that?""Mr. Mosey, you're pushing it! Oakvale isn't a lawless place!" Lana was growing furious.
