The night passed quickly.The next morning, Dustin suddenly received a phone call from Eleanor."Hello, Dustin. We'd like to talk with you. Can we meet?" Eleanor sounded gentle. "There's nothing for us to talk about. You can only blame yourselves for everything that happened," Dustin replied coldly."Dustin, I know I was wrong. I'm very regretful of my decisions. Please give me a chance to make amends." Eleanor pleaded. "Give you a chance? What about Lana? She didn't do anything wrong, but because of you, she's dead. Did you ever give her a chance?" Dustin remained unfazed."You've misunderstood the situation. Lana's death has nothing to do with us. I swear that I knew nothing about it at first," Eleanor spoke earnestly."Did you think I would believe you? You and Scott are birds of a feather," Dustin said coldly.Dustin had already experienced her cunning and selfish nature and how she never meant what she said. She would never have softened her stance if she hadn't been pu
After spending time with Dustin, she had gained a good understanding of him. Leaving aside other aspects, the way he treated his friends was admirable. "Look! He's here!" Right then, Elena seemed to have noticed something and pointed at the entrance.Eleanor followed her gaze and saw Dustin walking in slowly, dressed in white. To their delight, he had come alone. This would make it easier for them to execute their plan."Dustin, you're here? Please have a seat." As Dustin approached, Eleanor quickly greeted him with a warm smile. Her enthusiasm made it seem like they were reuniting old friends. Dustin just sat down without much courtesy and said coldly, "I'm here now. Just go straight to the point.""There's no rush. Let's have some drinks first, and we can talk slowly," Eleanor said with a pleasant smile as she poured Dustin a drink.However, Dustin remained seated quietly without any signs of movement. "Are you worried that I poisoned the drink? I'll drink first to prove
No one could deny that the woman was gorgeous and was considered an exceptional beauty. It wasn't only her looks. Her most striking feature was her seductive charisma that entranced anyone who gazed upon her."The Art of Seduction?" Caught in a momentary daze, Dustin swiftly snapped out of it. The woman in red had exuded a subtle, entrancing fragrance as she descended gracefully, enough to draw in anyone who inhaled it. That was just a small part of it. Her true strength lay in her gaze. Her every glance radiated a subtle light capable of stealing one's soul. This was one of the mystical arts of the martial arts world—the Art of Seduction. Clearly, the woman in red was far from an ordinary figure. "It's Holly Hudson! She's appeared!""As expected of one of the top ten beauties ranked on the Beauty Ranking, she is truly breathtaking!""If only I could spend one passionate night with Holly, I would die a happy death!""Holly is Grace Brothel's best card, but the only thing
Dustin had seen all kinds of beautiful women. A mere seduction art would not ensnare him. Did they really think he was controlled by instincts only? "Dear gentleman, why are you so mad?" After her descent, Holly wore an enchanting smile as she approached Dustin. She poured two glasses of wine and remarked, "Guests are always welcome here, and it's an honor to have you visit Grace Brothel. Allow me to raise the first toast."She lifted a glass from the table and downed the wine in one shot. Dustin grunted in acknowledgment and took a sip from his glass out of politeness."Dear gentleman, I'm friends with Ms. Welch and Ms. Forrest. I heard that there may have been a misunderstanding between both sides. "I'll be extremely grateful if you could overlook any past grievances," Holly said with a smile."Ms. Hudson, there's no need to involve yourself in our fight. It won't benefit you," Dustin said indifferently. "Since you appear to be a talented gentleman, I'm certain you also
Dustin glanced at the keys on the table and said meaningfully, "All this secrecy, just what are you scheming?""You sound as if two weak women like us are capable of plotting a scheme." Eleanor forced a smile."Yeah, we've sincerely repented and have no other ulterior motives. We swear on our lives!" Elena swore, going all out to convince Dustin.Eleanor's eyes twitched when she heard her, wishing she could slap her across the face. "For heaven's sake, why did you include me in your swear?" Eleanor muttered silently to herself."Since there's no scheming involved, let's head up together," Dustin said casually.Eleanor's expression froze.She glanced at Elena and was quick to come up with an explanation. "It's not convenient for Elena since she's in a wheelchair. I have to stay here and take care of her. "Besides, the murderer is treacherous. It's dangerous for us to go up there.""Exactly, it's too dangerous and inconvenient." Elena nodded repeatedly in agreement.Dustin co
Only those with absolute power and influence had the privilege to stay in the prestigious diamond suite."Sir, your room is ready. I wish you a delightful stay." After the bodyguard escorted Dustin to diamond suite four, he bid Dustin farewell and departed.Dustin approached the door and knocked gently, but there was no response.He sensed no apparent danger. At least, there was no imminent threat.Dustin unlocked the door with the key and walked straight in. Inside, he could smell the fragrance of scented candles. The room was also decorated in warm colors, creating a romantic atmosphere. Right across from the door was an elegant arrangement of sandalwood furniture adorned with fine wine and snacks.On the left, a partition draped in red lace concealed an assortment of intimate items. While on the right, a similar partition with white lace covered a bed and a wardrobe.Dustin's gaze swept around the area, and he soon noticed someone lying on the bed on the right. However
"Y-You! You murderer! How dare you kill Holly? You just committed a grave crime!""Guards! Someone, hurry up and arrest him!"The two Grace Brothel employees clamored, accusing Dustin of being the murderer. Their shouts soon resulted in a crowd that gathered around Dustin. Every one of them glared at Dustin angrily. They were filled with righteous indignation.Since Holly was Grace Brothel's best card and had countless admirers, her abrupt demise left the people feeling regretful.Of course, they were still mostly filled with hatred toward the murderer."How dare you commit murder in a place like this? You're digging your own grave!""Grace Brothel is under the Celestial Alliance. And Holly is Fenley's younger sister. There's no way you'll be able to get away with this!" "Get down on your knees and surrender immediately, or else you'll be dealt with accordingly!" The crowd unleashed a series of accusations. Judging from the hostile expressions on their faces, it was clear t
However, Eleanor never expected Anders' so-called ambush would involve Holly's lifeless body. Everyone knew that Holly was Fenley's younger sister. Now that Holly was dead, Fenley would undoubtedly take action, and everyone involved in the incident would face the consequences.It wasn't only Dustin that would suffer. They would have to suffer with him. It wasn't until this moment that she realized Anders had used them. They were like pawns that could be discarded at any moment.However, at this point, it was too late for regrets. All Eleanor could do now was to firmly hold her ground and try her best to extricate herself from the situation."Are you telling me this has nothing to do with you?" Dustin narrowed his eyes."That's right. We know nothing!" Eleanor immediately shook her head."That's right. We've been framed. Please don't misunderstand!" Elena echoed repeatedly."Alright, since you claim it has nothing to do with you, then tell me, who exactly was behind this? Wh
