Chapter: 506

“The Grant family?” Dahlia frowned.

“But why? How did Dustin piss them off?”

“I dug around and heard that he committed a grave crime. Apparently, he barged into the Hummer family’s home and began killing people. He even crippled Edwin Hummer’s son, Joshua Hummer! Worse, Joshua’s fiancée is Jade Grant, the daughter of Sir Robert Grant. There’s no way the Grant family would let Dustin go easily. He’s doomed.” Dakota shook her head sadly.

She didn’t care if Dustin died, but she still needed him to heal her mother, and her mother would be in grave danger if Dustin died now. Dakota wondered if she still had enough time to seek out miracle doctors.

“Isn’t there another way?” Dahlia was upset.

“What if I beg the Grant family? I’ll pay any amount, even if I go bankrupt!”

“Nonsense, Dahlia!” Florence shrieked.

“Why should you go so far for a man you divorced?”

“He’s helped me too many times. I have to save him!” Dahlia answered firmly.

“You”

“It’s useless.” Dakota shook her head.

“The Grant family is one the strongest families in Balerno. They could care less about your measly asset"

“Then what should we do? We can’t just sit here and wait.” Dahlia’s brows furrowed deeper.

“Money is useless. We need to beg someone influential to negotiate with them.” Dakota suggested.

“Someone influential? Who?” Dahlia asked tentatively.

“The only one who can stand against the Grant family is Mr. Langford from Stonia.” Dakota suggested.

“Saving Dustin should be a piece of cake if you ask Mr. Langford for help.”

“Mr. Langford?” Dahlia was troubled. There was no reason for him to help a stranger like her.

“That’s right. Dahlia. The best way is to beg Mr. Langford for help. I managed to save his number during dinner last night. I’ll call him right now!” Florence drew out her phone eagerly and dialed a number.

While she was worried that her daughter might sacrifice all her wealth for Dustin, she also hoped to push Dahlia closer to Luis. During their meeting last night, Florence realized that Luis had feelings for Dahlia. At the same time, the Glenstead Nicholsons were also hoping for the two to get married.

“Hello, is this Mr. Langford? Dahlia has something to say to you.” Florence shoved the phone to Dahlia as soon as the call got through.

“Dahlia? Let me know if you need any help. I’ll definitely get it done If I can,” a voice drawled.

“It’s me, Mr. Langford.” Dahlia responded stiffly.

“I’ll get to the point. I have a friend who’s in trouble and has been arrested by the military. I hope you can help me save him.”

“Arrested by the military? Your friend must be into hot water,” Luis guessed arrogantly.
