Dustin jumped to his feet when he heard what Florence said. "How did that happen?""You beast! How dare you ask me how that happened? It's all because of you, of course!" Florence shouted. "After she met you the other night, Dahlia seemed to have lost her soul! She refused to eat or drink, and she cried endless nights! Then, this morning, she attempted suicide by jumping off the building!"Dustin felt like he'd been struck by lightning. His mind went completely blank. Never in his wildest dreams had he ever thought that Dahlia would act so rashly!How could she attempt suicide by jumping off a building without saying anything to anyone at all? Had she lost her mind?"She … How is she now?" There was a tremble in Dustin's voice."She's still in a critical condition and doing horribly! Her life is in danger!"And this is all because of you! You beast! You're the reason Dahlia threw herself off the building!"I'm warning you, Rhys! If anything happens to Dahlia, I'll make you pay

"Take care, and don't do anything reckless anymore. We'll meet again in the future."Dustin turned to leave after saying farewell. It seemed like things were fated to end between them."Mom, that man was weird. Have I met him before?" Dahlia frowned as she watched Dustin leave. Somehow, he made her feel nostalgic. But she couldn't recall who he was."No, of course, you haven't met him before. He's just an insurance agent. Why would you be concerned about him? "Here, lie down and have a good rest." Florence was overjoyed."That's right, Dahlia. You've just had a traffic accident and barely survived. Don't overthink things," Julie chimed in.To them, Dahlia forgetting about Dustin was a good thing."Okay." Dahlia nodded. Though things seemed weird to her, she didn't give them further thought.…Dustin's emotions were a mess on his way back.The current outcome was a relatively good ending for both of them. But somehow, Dustin couldn't find it within him to feel happy.Maybe

"Wait!"Nikki came running out and stood between Dustin and Edith. "Can we please sit down and talk things through calmly? There must be a misunderstanding. Please don't fight.""Get lost! This is none of your business!" Edith glared at her fiercely."Madam Edith, Dustin saved your life today! You can't repay his kindness with revenge!" Nikki was exasperated."Shut up! You're in no place to speak here!" Edith lost her cool. It was embarrassing for her to be lectured by her disciple."Madam Parker, I'm giving you a chance for Nikki's sake."Dustin demanded coldly, "If you break Brittany's leg, we can all pretend that nothing happened today.""Utter rubbish! Why should anyone do as you say? Who do you think you are?" Brittany glared at him."Have you gone mad, brat? What makes you think that I'll take orders from you?" Edith looked at him condescendingly."Why?" Dustin stepped forward before confidently saying, "Because I have the original copy of the Jade Maiden Scripture!

Nikki rushed over to stop Edith. "Madam Edith, you haven't recovered yet! Please stop!""Damn it, brat!" Infuriated, Edith slapped Nikki across the face. "If it weren't for the incomplete scripture you gave me, I wouldn't have gone to extremes in training and gotten injured!""I—it wasn't me …" Nikki held her cheek and shook her head frantically. "Stop lying!" Edith shouted. "How did that bastard get his hands on the Jade Maiden Scripture? I'm sure you were the one who stole it and gave it to him. You ungrateful bitch!""I didn't!" Nikki denied anxiously. "I see what you're up to, Nikki Horst. You gave Madam Edith the incomplete scripture and gave that bastard the real one. You're such a bitch!""I thought you were a loyal disciple. It turns out you're just a backstabber who betrayed us!""Enough with the acting. You make me sick!"Instantly, the Jade Maiden Sisterhood disciples began cursing at Nikki. They were sure Nikki must have conspired with Dustin and took the Ja

Everyone could tell that Dustin truly cared for Nikki. "You should freshen up. I'll be holding a banquet for you tonight. "It'll be a good opportunity for you to get closer to the gang's members." Dustin patted her shoulder and waved two female disciples over to help Nikki to her room."Aren't you being too nice to her, sir?" Cornelius asked. "I owe Nelson my life, so I should help her however I can." Dustin's eyes turned sad. "I just hope she doesn't disappoint you." Cornelius was envious. Dustin didn't just save Nikki. He helped her escape from that hellhole and would give her the Jade Maiden Scripture. He was even going as far as to pass her the position of guildmaster! There was no one as lucky as Nikki. If Cornelius were a woman, he would be throwing himself at Dustin by now.…Night soon fell. Kirin Gang's executives sat together in Zephyr Lodge's ballroom, enjoying their drinks. All five of Kirin Gang's guildmasters were present. They were Cornelius from Dar
