Chapter: 287
“Hmph! Are you telling us that you’re more capable than Matt? Why don’t you look into the mirror and reflect on the kind of person you really are?”
“Yeah! People like you only know how to cause trouble and nothing else!”
“To think that there are people in this world who could be so heartless! Not only did he not thank his savior, he even talked shit about him! How disgusting!”
The Nicholsons berated Dustin. They despised people like him who were hellbent on repaying good with evil from the bottom of their hearts.
“Is it so hard for you just to thank someone, Dustin? If it weren’t for Matt, you might have been killed by now!” Dahlia suddenly piped up.
To her, Dustin was still being ignorant until the bitter end. Compared to Matt saving his life, what was a mere thank you?
“I would have if he had actually helped me. But he didn’t. In fact, not only did he not help me, he was the one who started this whole fiasco in the first place!” Dustin replied flatly.
“What do you mean?” Dahlia frowned.
“Iran a background check and found out that Matt and Tina are lovers. Tina deliberately targeted you out of jealousy, thinking that you and he had some hanky panky going on behind the scenes. So, that was what led to the assault! In a nutshell, he’s the true culprit all along!” Dustin declared firmly.
“Bullshit! Rhys! Not to insult you or anything, but Matt is an upright guy. He’s not as bad as you say he is!” Florence cursed and jumped to her feet without waiting for Matt to respond.
“That’s right! I think you’re just jealous! You probably planted all kinds of evidence to frame him, knowing how much better he is than you!” James scolded.
“Oh, Dustin. Who knew you’d be so despicable!” The Nicholsons scoffed.
“Why do you always insist on causing havoc, Dustin? Can’t you be more mature and sensible for once?” Dahlia spat with a scowl.
However, it was fairly obvious to her that he had done all of that as a result of his jealous rage.
“Don’t believe me? Just ask Julie. She was the one who saw it all last night!” Dustin defended himself and pointed at something.
Everyone’s gazes immediately shifted to see what he was pointing at.
“What, me? When all eyes fell on her, Julie couldn’t help but be stunned and speechless for a while.
She was just here for the show, so why did she get implicated in this whole mess when she was just another person in the crowd?
“Tell us everything you saw, and don’t try to hide anything, Julie. I want to see how this punk can still argue his way out of this!” Florence ordered as she crossed her arms.
“Yeah, Julic. Just tell us everything that’s or your mind. We must expose this punk for all his lies!” The Nicholsons spoke out in agreement.
“Um–But before Julie could say anything, she stopped herself.
Her response made the people in the crowd feel like she’d be a loose cannon.
This was especially true for Matt, as he stood there with his heart pounding out of his chest while his forehead broke out in a cold sweat.
He’d already been scared shitless when Dustin spoke out the truth just now, so if Julie also knew something and exposed him for being the one who lied instead, he’d lose lace!
“I believe you know what happened yesterday the best. Julie. So, it’s time to tell everyone the truth,” Dustin added flatly.
