Chapter: 160
Rowan almost collapsed in shock.
However, Ross still had not grasped the situation and continued mocking Dustin.
“Bastard! Now you’re scared? Why didn’t you do this earlier? Even if you return it now, it’s too late! I want you to kneel and apologize. Maybe then I’ll let you go!” the doctor with glasses exploded, his head held high.
“Shut up!” At that moment, Rowan’s patience had run out, and he slapped Ross across the face with all his might.
Ross fell to the ground with a loud smack. He felt like he had dislocated his head. Blood started to flow from his nose.
“S–sir. Why did you hit me? He’s the one you should hit!” Ross asked, stunned as he held his face, not understanding what he did wrong. His master had slapped the wrong person.
“You dare disrespect Mr. Rhys? You’re the one who should be slapped!” Rowan bellowed in a fit of rage. He lifted Ross to his feet and slapped him several more times.
Ross‘ face turned a darker purple with every slap. Even his teeth started falling out.
Everyone was confused at this scene.
“What is going on? Shouldn’t Dr. Cross be lashing out at Dustin? Why is he hitting his apprentice?” everyone wondered.
“You imbecile! Brainless scum! Who gave you the guts to disrespect Mr. Rhys? I’ll beat you till you come to your senses!” Rowan roared as he kept hitting with no mercy.
If Dustin hadn’t stepped up to stop Rowan, Ross wouldn’t have survived.
After all these years, Rowan had been searching for Dustin so that he could repay him for his kindness. And now that they had finally met in person, it should have been a momentous occasion. However, his failure of an apprentice disrespected and openly mocked his greatest savior. He was clearly looking for a beating!
After letting out his anger, Rowan presented the bottle of Hexanavir to Dustin and said, “Mr. Rhys, I’m terribly sorry. It’s my fault for not training him well enough that you had to go through all that. Please forgive me!”
He fell to his knees in front of Dustin.
Seeing Rowan kneeling before the man, everyone was stunned into silence. Their eyes widened with shock as if they had seen a ghost.
“The great Dr. Cross is kneeling and apologizing to a nobody? What in the world is happening?!” everyone wondered.
Rowan’s actions had left everyone in the room stunned.
“N–no way! Dustin knows Dr. Cross? How is that possible?!”
“Oh my goodness, Dustin is incredible! He can even make Dr. Cross apologize?”
Everyone in the room exchanged glances of shock as they watched Dustin’s calm, unfazed expression and the respectful look on Dr. Cross‘ face. They had difficulty picturing someone mediocre knowing someone like Dr. Cross.
“Are–are my eyes playing tricks on me?” Florence was in disbelief.
The great Dr. Rowan Cross, the best doctor in the world, was apologizing to Dustin? How unbelievable!
“Could it be that Dustin’s Hexanavir really was a gift from Dr. Cross?” Dahlia was also shocked to her core. To be honest, ever since the divorce, she noticed that Dustin had become more discreet.
“What a nuisance!” Matt muttered to himself, looking gloomy. Dr Cross” appearance had disrupted his plan.
