Chapter 94

When Sir Anderson showed up, everyone thought Dustin was done for.

To their surprise, nothing dramatic happened when Sir Anderson saw Dustin. Instead, they chatted amicably like they were old friends.

The Cobra was appalled by this turn of events. Even Florence and the others were stunned.

“This can’t be for real, right? Could he really know Sir Anderson?”

“My goodness, who is that man? How could he and Sir Anderson be talking like buddies?” 

The crowd gossiped in hushed voices, obviously taken aback.

*S–Sir Andersonyou know him?” The Cobra gulped. He was slightly panicked and at a loss.

‘Dustin is Natasha’s friend. What gave you the nerve to offend him?” Duane’s expression grew colder by the second.

“Huh? Ms. Harmon’s friend?” The Cobra got the fright of his life.

Natasha Harmon wasn’t just one of Swinton’s big guns, she had the support of Millburg’s aristocrats. She was as prominent a figure as Sir Anderson himself. What’s more, Natasha was a very protective person. Anyone who dared to offend her friends was doomed to face ruthless revenge!

“Sir Anderson, I–1- the Cobra stuttered.

“Pack it up and stop being a baby. Apologize to Dustin, and whatever happened will be forgotten.” Duane waved his hand.

“Okay, okay…” The Cobra nodded repeatedly and bowed to Dustin. “Mr. Rhys, I’m terribly sorry. I didn’t know who you were and offended you. I hope you’ll let this slide and forgive me this once.” 

“You’re exaggerating. As long as you won’t take revenge,” said Dustin plainly.

“I wouldn’t dare…” The Cobra kept wiping away his sweat as he said, “From now on, you and your friends will be treated as our VIPs. Everything will be on the house!”

His humble response shocked the crowd. Who would have thought that the Cobra, who was so villainous just a moment before, would apologize so humbly the next?

“Dustin, let’s have a chat. This way.” Duane wasn’t joking. He stretched out a hand in invitation and led the

way to the office on the second floor

The moment they left, the entire bar erupted!

*I… I wasn’t just seeing things, was I? Did that fool just talk to Sir Anderson like the best of pals?” James asked in disbelief.

After all, Sir Anderson was the Cobra’s backer. He could turn Swinton upside down with a lift of his finger.

“If I’m guessing right, Ms. Harmon must have something to do with their acquaintance.” Dahlia suggested, her senses returning quickly.

CS CamScanner

She had heard Sir Anderson mention Natasha Harmon. It was undeniable that he had spared Dustin for the sake of the Harmon family’s reputation.

“You must be right! It has to be! How else can a small fry like him know such a big shot?” James nodded 

fervently.

“Hmph! I thought he had some real potential, but it turns out that he was just putting on a show by relying on someone else’s influence!” Florence huffed, displeased.

“A man should have a spine. How can a man always count on a woman to back him up?” Dahlia shook her head in disappointment. Climbing the ranks by kissing up to someone looked grand on the surface, but it was

just a quick taste of heaven. It would never last long.

“What a lucky bastard!” Matt’s expression was stormy, and his gaze stung with disdain. It was already shameful enough getting slapped by the Cobra earlier, but now, Dustin’s glory had made him look even more pathetic in comparison. He could not accept that a good–for–nothing like Dustin had outshone him! Meanwhile, in the office on the second floor, Dustin sat across from Duane while the Cobra served them.

    this is bs! I can’t take it anymore! characters are dumb as f*ck! Dustin always saved their butt and they have the audacity to descrimate him not even thanking him for how much he sacrifice for the Nicholson family. Even his ex wife, after three years of relationship she doesn’t even trust him. she’s sucking to the other guy instead of his husband who always supported her and get her to the place she is now, she didn’t learned the lesson after what chris did to them. Her family should die already they pissed me off! they’re all sucker to wealth and status they don’t deserve to live. In the first place this is all Dustin’s fault for he doesn’t explain himself, he’s just always silent and spoke a few words he should atleast tell him that his an important person, I know being lowkey with op power is cool but we’ve come this far he should atleast tell them what he’s capable of and not just letting them talk shit and descrimate him.

    Same this mc is so stupid can’t even defend himself why should defend that stupid family… Bruh just move on your wife is a cheater and gold digger so stop now please

  3. Pete says:

    Haha at last i found you guys that have same thought with me and what you guys mentioned is true and this writer is the most stupid writer who loses her brain due to not functioning, she keep making main character become stupid then herself…anyway not much we can say just scroll stupid parts find the usable stories for complete this stupid writer imagination haha

  4. Banarbas Obiajunwa says:

    This writer is making humanity seem stupid! At this point My interest for this novel just died! How can de keep thinking Dustin is low life. Writers arrogance i think

  5. Elder Tomb Guardian says:

    Damn… didn’t expect so many dumb commentors here. It’s already obvious with how long this story is, she’s purposefully letting the misunderstanding and the discrimination towards the mc happen to extend the story. This is, after all, a guy who could care less of a shit what others think of him, but still is willing to save his ex-wife from these stupid events because he still genuinely cares even if the ex-wife is being a stupid bitch about it. Don’t forget, this story takes part in a world where social status, wealth, fame, and power rule over the land. Without that, you lose all credibility no matter that good deeds you do, even so far as to turn the narrative where the good guy is bad, and a bad guy is good.

    Thanks a lot! 😁

    Kudos!

  8. Solus says:

    Those cockroaches never learned a lesson. How many time they were surprised but then always find some reasons to justify their jealosy and hatred toward Dustin. Once or second times is fine, but it becomes so frustrating to read if it happens continuously… C’mon writer, just resolve it and find another way to make this novel more interesting and pleasurable to read…. And giving some little bonus scene (e.g intimate scene between Natasha and Dustin) for the reader is not a sin. Bhahaha

    Elder tomb guardian. There is a limit to how an author should interfere with the story. This is becoming plain stupid. In the previous events we could at least form a bit of reasoning to why he had to act the way he did. But this one time was plain stupid. He protects them from bullies but he is okay with them bullying others. I would be all on board with it if other circumstances but he saw how stupid and spoiled these nouveau riche are, they need a little rasp on the hand to learn not to kick the ironbucket left and right, and James losing his was a good way for that. In the same vein, the drama would have been much better with dahlia seeing him not lift a finger to help them for the first time, so that she wakes up from her dreams. I think that would have made the drama a bit better….because it is what we call character development.

    Wtf is happening! Mr. Anderson has not even met Dustin? In the Travis thing Mr. Anderson was involved, while saving Dahlia from Spanner he was there and yet he hasn’t seen that Duane Welsh and Mr. Anderson are the same?
