"I thought you guys love to laugh at others. Why aren't you laughing now?" After Dustin displayed his Consultant Badge, he openly confronted those who had looked down upon him.Dylan, Kate, and Natasha's friends gaped at the sight of the silver Consultant Badge on the table. They were smiling no more. After all, a Consultant Badge from the Hill family was a rare treasure coveted by many. With that badge in hand, one would have the backing of the Hill family, which also came with the perks of accessing and utilizing the family resources. It was not an understatement to describe the badge as priceless!However, it raised another question—how did the badge end up in Dustin's possession? Was he telling the truth when he said that he had saved Sir Paul's life? At the thought, everyone looked at Dustin differently."T-that's impossible! Why would you have the Consultant Badge from the Hill family?" Kate was still reeling from the shock, even though she was rather doubtful."I explained i
"That's right! The Hill family's Consultant Badge is as hard as steel. Only a counterfeit would be that brittle!" Kate supported Dylan's claim, and everyone else nodded in realization."So, it's a fake after all. That gave me a good shock.""This guy knows no shame! I can't believe he created a counterfeit badge just for show. He's too much!""Hmph! It's fortunate that Sir Dylan was smart enough to see through him. Otherwise, we'd all have been fooled!" Most of the crowd started berating Dustin. They trusted a wealthy son more than a lowly commoner. It was ironic how a successful person could blabber nonsense, and it would be taken as the absolute truth. While that same person, before becoming successful, could tell the absolute truth, and his words would be treated as garbage. Dustin spoke to Dylan coldly, "Dylan Harmon, have you thought of the consequences of destroying the Consultant Badge and distorting the truth in public?" "The consequences? Ha! You're the one tricking p
"Dylan!" The sudden turn of events left everyone stunned. Nobody expected Dylan to collapse and spurt blood when he was still laughing a second ago. "Get him to the hospital, quickly!" Hector made a prompt decision and ordered someone to carry Dylan out. "Hey, brat! Did you do this?" Jacob was about to leave when he thought of something and turned back, his expression menacing."What does it have to do with me? It's his old injuries that resurfaced. If you're looking for someone to blame, you should blame Tyler since he attacked him earlier." Dustin shrugged. "You—" Jacob was exasperated. However, he couldn't start a scene without evidence. "Jacob. You should go now. It's more important to save Dylan," Hector reminded him. "Let's go!" Jacob glared at Dustin and left angrily, not wanting to waste any more time. Trent and Kate followed behind them. As the Harmons' most talented genius, Dylan's safety would affect their future. He was already considered equal in standing to Hec
While Dustin froze, Natasha blushed. "This … this is too sudden. I'm not prepared for it!" She followed that up by asking, "Have you chosen a date? When are we getting married?""Hey, you thought I was for real? You should be embarrassed!" Hector glared at her. Natasha pouted. "You said it yourself. Why are you yelling at me instead?""Alright, it's time to get serious." Hector's smile gradually disappeared. "Even though we overcame the situation for now, this matter is far from over. With Tyler's personality, he will not take this sitting down.""Will Tyler still act recklessly with Lord Xenos and Sir Paul behind us?" Natasha raised an eyebrow."Tyler might not confront us directly, but he will definitely act behind the scenes." Hector was solemn as he continued, "Lord Xenos and Sir Paul have also repaid their favor. They won't help us a second time. We can only face him ourselves now.""Does that mean trouble will continue brewing for us?" Natasha looked pensive. "There will
The next morning, at Nicholson Corp., Dustin reported to work as usual. As Chief Security Officer, his work was relatively easy. He would punch in in the morning and patrol the area with a few officers, and he would have free time after that. He could do anything he wanted since no one was there to keep watch on him. Dustin had just sat down in his office when someone knocked on his door. He looked up and found that it was the Vice Chairman, Hank Hoffman."Mr. Rhys, are you free? Can I have a word with you?" Hank walked in the door with a smile. Remaining in his seat, Dustin greeted him, "Mr. Hoffman, how can I help you?" "Mr. Rhys, I had my friend bring back this aged Narcissus Tea from Mount Woui. I hope you like it." Hank took out a delicate gift box and placed it on his table.Dustin raised an eyebrow. "Aged Narcissus Tea? This must be pretty expensive.""It's nothing, just over a million dollars." Hank smiled. Dustin declined his gift. "Mr. Hoffman, this is too valuabl
Dustin answered the call and instantly heard Julie's voice blaring through the speakers. "Dustin, Dahlia got into a traffic accident! Come and help us out, quick!""An accident?" Startled, Dustin probed for more information. "What happened? Is she hurt?""It's a long story. I'll send you our location. Come here right now!" Julie urged."Okay!" Without wasting any time, Dustin ended the call and rushed out the door.…Over at Dahlia's side, a Maserati and a Bentley had run into each other on the streets. Both cars were heavily damaged, and there were shards of car glass scattered around the point of collision.After the collision, several young men and women came out of the Bentley, and at the forefront of the group was a young lady with hair that was dyed a bright red, and clad in luxurious branded goods from head to toe.After she got out of her car, she immediately went up to Dahlia's car and began banging on the window, yelling rudely, "Hey! Can't you fucking drive? Get out of the g
"Oh, I'm going too far now, am I? Well, so what if I am? What are you going to do about it?" The red-haired lady stood with arms akimbo as she glared daggers at Dahlia."I've called the cops! You better not act rashly!" Dahlia warned. She had Julie make several calls as soon as they had the accident."The cops?" The red-haired girl laughed obnoxiously as her friends behind her watched on unkindly, obviously having no regard for the authorities. "Do you think that I'd be daunted by mere cops? I'll have you know, I can kill you right this instant and chuck you into the ocean as fish food, and no one will be able to do anything about it!" She laughed nastily."Surely you can't be above the law!" Dahlia shook her head with a frown, her brows furrowed."The law? Haha! I am the fucking law! Now, pay me ten million dollars, or I'll show you what I'm capable of!" The red-haired lady threatened."Ten million dollars? That's daylight robbery!" Julie was aggravated. Even if she had bought that ca
The young men and women, who were with the red-haired lady, began clamoring, disregarding Dustin's presence."Get down on your knees and apologize, or I'll break your arms and legs!" Dustin demanded coldly."My! cocky, aren't you?" One of the men walked up to Dustin and poked him in the chest rudely, taunting him as he did so, "Do you know who we are, loser? How dare you act so arrogantly with us? I'll—" Before he could finish his sentence, he was struck with full force across the face. A loud slap could be heard as he was sent flying through the air, crashing through a car window head-first. The top half of his body went right through the window and into the car, whereas the other half of his body dangled outside of the car."How dare you slap my friend? Do you have a death wish?" The lady with the red hair was infuriated by Dustin's actions. In one swift motion, she launched herself toward Dustin at an unbelievable speed. When she got near, she threw a punch at Dustin with all her m
