After a stormy event, the Harmon family’s press conference ended successfully. On the other hand, the influential Hummer family’s press conference ended in dismal failure. The emergence of Immortunol dealt a huge blow to the sales of Eternumax. Compared to another medicine with better efficacy and a cheaper price, Eternumax was regarded as garbage.The Hummer family’s Eternumax couldn't be sold at all. In the end, they were stuck with piles of rotting inventory. The meticulous game planned by Edwin was a complete failure. Although this disaster was unable to weaken the Hummer family’s foundation, it still caused them heavy losses. After the press conference, Dustin was about to say goodbye when he was stopped by Ruth at the door. "Dustin, I need a favor from you." "What is it?" Dustin asked suspiciously. "I'm going to a reunion with some of my classmates later, can you come with me and be my bodyguard?" Ruth was very straightforward. "The Harmon family has so many bodyg
"Ruth, when did you get a boyfriend? Why wasn’t I informed?" Nigel's face turned ugly as he stared at Dustin with hostility. "Do I need to report to you when I have a boyfriend? You really think too highly of yourself." Ruth rolled her eyes. She had already rejected Nigel multiple times, but he just wouldn't give up and continued to pester her."I'm just worried that you might be deceived. There are a lot of con artists these days who use their good looks to cheat people out of their wealth," Nigel said in a mocking tone."That's not true! Dustin is not a con man!" Sheila quickly defended him. When everyone fixed their gazes on her, Sheila realized that she had spoken out of turn and immediately shut her mouth."Ms. Murray, what's with the sachet on your neck?" Dustin suddenly noticed something unusual."Is there a problem?" Sheila picked up the sachet and examined it."Throw it away. It's a little suspicious." Dustin shook his head."Hey, what do you mean? This aromatic sach
"You attacked out of turn!" Nigel held his bleeding nose and scowled at the assassins' leader.Damn it, he didn't even have a chance to show off in front of Ruth! Where were his manners!"It’s your fault for getting distracted in battle! Are you tired of living?" The leader sneered."Scumbag, you are getting on my nerves! I'll give you one last chance to kneel and beg for mercy, otherwise, I will roundhouse kick you in the arse!" Nigel glared at him viciously. As he threatened, Nigel leaped into the air and did a somersault, looking quite impressive. "Arrogant fool!" The assassins' leader’s eyes were cold as he and his remaining men rushed toward Nigel at once. "Be careful, Mr. Lincoln!" The girls exclaimed in shock."Don’t overestimate yourself!" Nigel roared fearlessly as he took a step back to perform his special move. He spun around like a spinning top, attacking the assassins ferociously. His kicks were merciless and deadly; anyone who got close to Nigel was knocked
There was pin-drop silence in the private room. At a loss for words, everyone was aghast at what had happened. No one expected the twist of events. Just a minute ago, Nigel was their hero, flaunting his strength and skills, but now he was lying helplessly on the ground like a dead dog. How could this bald guy be so powerful? "H—how dare you hurt me? Do you know who I am? I'm Nigel Lin…""Shut the hell up!" With a crack, the bald man stepped on Nigel’s leg and broke it. Nigel wailed in pain, with cold sweat appearing on his forehead. "If you’ve got the nerve, tell me your names!" Nigel gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with rage."Listen up! My name is Brent Garcia, and this is my brother, Wade Garcia!" The bald man in green announced loudly."Brent Garcia, Wade Garcia? Could it be...are you guys the Four Scoundrels?" Nigel's pupils shrank in fear."The Four Scoundrels!" Everyone was shocked at the revelation. The Four Scoundrels was a notorious group of merciless a
"H—how was this possible?!" Nigel gasped, his mouth wide and his face full of disbelief.He finally witnessed how formidable the Four Scoundrels were in person. Either one of them could quickly snuff him out.It was perhaps fate that an expert like himself had been crippled by a doctor they looked down upon.Such a thing was practically unheard of!"How is this guy so powerful?" Claudia's eyes widened in shock and bewilderment.Initially, she had assumed that Dustin was an unsavory character who only knew how to resort to using dirty tricks up his sleeve, so she hadn’t expected him to be so skilled in martial arts.He was miles better than her!He wielded such strength at such a young age, too. She was frozen on the spot once the revelation hit her that she was no longer a goddess among men."Dustin’s way too cool!" Sheila cheered as her eyes sparkled.After exchanging glances with one another, the rest of the girls also started looking at him in a different light. Not used
Everyone in the room was flabbergasted as they stared at Xavier, who’d been mercilessly battered and bruised.No one had expected Dustin to be so bold as to slap Xavier. Everyone knew that the Horst family was among the five most powerful families in the Southern province. They were the top of the top! They were essentially untouchable!As an immediate heir, he was the rising star of the Horst family.So, no matter where he went, he’d have the stars laid out at his feet.No one had ever dared to humiliate him in public like this, much less slap him like a maniac so many times.Was this guy batshit crazy?"Y—you dare hit me?" Xavier asked rhetorically. The corners of his eyes started twitching as he tried to put on a fierce expression."I'm not just going to beat you, I'm going to make sure you can never use your hands ever again!" Dustin snorted and proceeded to stomp on his wrist, breaking it."Argh!" Xavier wailed in pain as he broke out in a cold sweat, his expression twis
"S—so that was a charm after all?"Everyone at the scene was frozen in place as they stared at the red snake that Xavier vomited. One by one, their faces showed looks of disbelief. No one could’ve ever imagined that the esteemed heir of the Horst family, who had a bright and promising future ahead of him, had stooped this low just to court someone."Xavier, I never thought you’d be like this!" Claudia yelled angrily in shock.Who knew that she’d be the one who would be deceived by trusting him too much in the end? She almost became an accomplice in his schemes too!"I—" Xavier was at a loss for words as his face turned pale. The truth was already laid bare for all to see, so even if he still insisted on denying it, his attempts would be absolutely futile. "Hmph, It’s a good thing Dustin has a good eye to see through your evil schemes. Otherwise, Sheila would’ve fallen right into your trap!" Ruth spat, her expression full of contempt.She hated despicable and shameless men li
Even though she said that, she secretly knew that her father would take Xavier’s side out of his great fondness for him.When one was born into a wealthy family, joy wasn’t as much of a significant consideration as the family's interests."Alright. We all know how much Uncle Caden adores you, so he definitely wouldn’t let you suffer," Ruth replied, and she no longer pressed her for answers. "Let’s go back home and take a nice nap, Ruth," Dustin yawned. After retrieving all of his golden needles, he spun around and was about to leave when a voice piped up again. "Running away already?" Xavier taunted, his expression now full of furious rage and his gaze scorching.He immediately pounced on Dustin while he wasn’t paying attention and stabbed him with a knife!"Just die already!" Xavier roared as he pushed the tip of the blade into Dustin’s back. "Behind you!" Ruth and Sheila shrieked in horror. Everyone else at the scene was also stunned by Xavier’s sudden attack. No one expe
