Chapter: 856
"Forget about her, Dustin. Let’s continue our discussion. Oh, right. James? Hurry up and print out the contract. We should get this over with today." Florence tugged on Dustin’s arm, worried he might escape.
"No problem!" With twinkling eyes, James dashed out of the room.
"I’ll prepare a contract too." Julie quickly followed suit.
The contracts were signed twenty minutes later. Dustin received the title deeds, while Florence and the others got back their money.
As soon as they received the money, Florence and the others began cackling and jeering at Dustin, whom they believed was an idiot. They marveled at the idiot they found.
"Oh, Dustin. You sure are stupid. How can you treasure such worthless buildings?" Florence grinned smugly.
At first, she thought she had wasted all her money, but God blessed them by sending them a scapegoat.
"Thanks, Dustin, or else we’d be doomed." Florence grinned.
"You’re such a saint, Dustin. I must say, I’m impressed!" James exclaimed delightedly and gave the other man a thumbs-up.
"Remember to treat us to a meal once you’ve made your fortune." Victoria mocked.
They had been unfortunate to be swindled by Terrence, but they found someone to take the fall. It was their stroke of luck, or they would have lost all their money.
"I hope you don’t come to regret your decision." Dustin wore a meaningful smile.
"Regret?" They exchanged amused glances and laughed even louder.
How could Dustin still not know that something was wrong? An idiot like him deserved to be scammed.
"Dustin, what on earth are you thinking? You shouldn’t be so reckless even if you have some money, right?" Dahlia frowned. She was confused as to why someone who was usually so smart would act so foolishly.
"Everything I say is useless right now, but you’ll understand soon," Dustin smiled and said.
No matter how many times he advised them, none of them believed him. However, when things settled down, it would be obvious who was the winner.
"Fine! I don’t care anymore!" Dahlia stomped toward the door and halted.
"What are you waiting for? Let’s go back to the company!"
"Can I take a leave of absence? My friend happens to be here, so I want to visit him," Dustin asked. Mr. Robinson was here as well, so he should visit the older man.
"Do whatever you like!" Dahlia humphed and left.
Five minutes later, Dustin stepped into another ward and saw Abigail feeding her father some soup. The father-daughter duo’s relationship improved after the latest incident.
