“That’s strange. Why are they headed our way? They look like they’re up to no good. They’re not here

to give us trouble, are they?” Florence fidgeted anxiously in her seat.

“They’re here for me.” Dustin piped up.

“You? Have you offended someone again?” Dahlia frowned. She noticed that Dustin ran into quite a lot

of trouble these days.

“I wouldn’t exactly say I offended him, per se. I simply beat him up to teach him a lesson on how to

behave,” Dustin said calmly.

*This is not Swinton. There are influential people all around. There are some people that we simply

cannot afford to cross!” Dahlia whispered. Though she was now chairwoman of Cardinal Group, the

handover had yet to be completed, so she had neither funds, connections, nor experience. At this

stage of her life, what she needed to do was to make more connections, keep a low profile, and stay

out of trouble.

“Don’t you worry. Miss Dahlia. I’m here. I’ll make sure that nobody kicks up a fuss here.” Terrence shot

her a confident smile, trying to portray the image of a savior. He’d never pass up the opportunity to flex

his muscles in front of such a beautiful lady. Every man wanted to play the part of a hero saving the

damsel in distress.

“Dahlia, Terrence has some very powerful people backing him up. With the connections he has, these

rascals don’t stand a chance,” Julie said proudly as she hooked an arm around Terrence’s.

“Is that so? Then I’ll have to thank Terrence in advance.” Dahlia managed to force a smile on her face.

“Don’t mention it. It’s no big deal,” Terrence said with a wave of his hand as he beamed joyfully,

thinking it’d

be effortless to deal with these thugs.

“You scoundrel! I’ve been searching high and low for you for the past two days! You can’t run away

now!” Duncan advanced with a threatening smile on his face. His malicious gaze was fixed on Dustin.

“Why were you searching for me? Have you finally realized that you were wrong and were looking for

me to apologize?” A hint of a smile tugged on Dustin’s lips.

“Apologize, my foot!” Duncan’s face fell as he roared. “Two days ago, you humiliated me and gave me

three

slaps across the face. I swear I’ll chop your hands off today, you asshole!”

“Excuse me, sir, Please calm down. If Dustin has hurt you in any way at all, I’ll pay you for the damages

he’s

done.” Dahlia stood to alleviate the tension.

Surprised that someone would stand up for Dustin, Duncan gave Dahlia a good look before his eyes lit

up.

“Gorgeous! This lady is gorgeous Indeed!” he thought.

He’d set eyes on many beautiful ladies before, but this was something else. She was truly a rare

beauty!

“Hey loser, is this your girlfriend? She’s quite hot.” Duncan stroked his chin as he leered at Dahlia with

a smirk. ‘I’ll strike you a deal. If you let your girlfriend sleep with me for one night, I’ll let you off the hook

for that ass move you pulled last time. How’s that?”

“You insolent bastard!” Before Dustin could say anything, Terrence slammed his list on the table and

stood up. “Which sect do you belong to? Don’t you know that men’s disagreements should be settled

between men? So keep the lady out of your dirty business!”

“And who are you to run your mouth here, you cad?” Duncan squinted at him.

“Hmph! I am Terrence Stone, manager of Brooks Corporation! If you know what’s good for you, you

better scram, or I’ll make you regret the day you were born!” Terrence said with his hands behind his

back, going for a look of superiority. Brooks Corporation was a giant in the Millsburg business industry

and had enormous influence over the market, so Terrence was used to people backing off the moment

he told them that he worked for Brocks Corporation. It worked like a charm.

“Manager of Brooks Corporation?” Duncan’s expression darkened when he heard that, and within a

split second, he went up to Terrence and gave him a hard slap across the face. “Fuck you! How dare a

measly manager behave so pompously? Do you have a death wish?”
