Chapter: 321
“No problem! Tie him up and throw him out! Break his legs if he resists!” Xavier sneered as he waved the guards over.
“Yes, Sir!” The guards rushed up at his command.
“Insolent bastards!” Dustin seethed. He met the guards head–on.
With just a few simple swings of his arm, he delivered slap after slap to the guards‘ faces.
They cried out as they were sent sprawling across the lounge. None of them was a match for Dustin.
“Huh?” Caden and Xavier were surprised at what they saw. They had not expected that a mere doctor like him would be so skilled in combat techniques!
“So it turns out that he’s a practitioner of the martial arts! No wonder he has the guts to behave so pompously!
“Xavier scoffed as he slowly took off his coat.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve loosened up. Well, let’s have some fun today, shall we?” With that, Xavier got ready to attack.
“Hold it right there!” Lily, Sheila, and a few other people burst in hastily.
“Caden, what’s going on? Dustin saved Sheila! Why are you guys attacking him?” Lily questioned.
“This is none of your business, Lily. Bring Sheila back to her room to get some rest.” Caden frowned.
He had brought Dustin to the lounge because he didn’t want his wife and daughter to see what they were doing.
But in the end, they still caught wind of things and came over.
“Is this because of the Gozoraberry, Caden? We made Dustin a promise! Why are you backing out on your words? If word got out, how do you think it’s going to affect our reputation?” Lily got the picture the instant she saw the red box.
“What would a woman know? Get out!” Caden was ashamed, but he lashed out at Lily with his frustration.
“Dad! You’ve always told me to be an honest person, but what are you doing now?”
Sheila took a step forward and demanded, “Dustin just saved my life, but not only are you not grateful towards him, but you’ve also resorted to using violence against him. Since when were you so unreasonable?”
Caden’s expression changed when he heard her words. He couldn’t care less about what others thought about him, but he couldn’t disregard how his daughter saw him.
He had always kept his dirty deeds hidden from his daughter. It was unfortunate that he was caught red- handed today.
“Sheila, Uncle Caden had nothing to do with this. I was the one who wanted the Gozoraberry.”
Xavier stood up to take the blame. I’m just one step away from advancing my skills to the next level, and a Gozoraberry is exactly what will give me the extra push to help me progress. That’s why I shamelessly requested it from Uncle Caden.”
“Even so, you should not have resorted to violence!” Sheila scowled.
“Sheila, you don’t understand! I had planned to buy the Gozoraberry from him for 10 million dollars, but not only did this fella here reject my proposal, he even insulted me! I really couldn’t take it!” Xavier argued indignantly.
“I don’t care! Since you’ve agreed to give Dustin the Gozoraberry, then you can’t just back out at the eleventh hour!” Sheila reached out, snatched the box from Xavier’s hands, and passed it to Dustin.
