That was the mannerism of a true gentleman! At that moment, Terrence appeared heroic.

“You’re in luck, Dustin! What are you waiting for? Why aren’t you thanking Terrence? He decided to buy

that rubbish off your hands!” Julie announced proudly.

“There’s no need for that. We’re all friends. I can’t bear to see you suffer such a loss. Just give me the

ownership of that piece of land, and we’ve got a deal,” Terrence said with an amiable smile.

“When did I agree to the deal?” Dustin asked.

“What?” Terrence thought that he had heard Dustin wrong. He never thought that he would be rejected.

Julie and the rest of them were astonished too. Unable to comprehend what was going on in Dustin’s

head, they assumed that he had lost his marbles. After all, who would turn down money and choose to

hold on to a piece of trash?

“Dustin, did you not hear what I said? The abandoned construction site is worth nothing, and you have

no use for it! Why don’t you just sell it to me?” Terrence tried to talk some sense into Dustin.

“Why do you want it if it’s worth nothing?” Dustin countered.

“I’m doing this for your sake, of course!” Terrence said with all earnestness. “The reason all this

happened was because of me. I trusted someone who I should not have trusted, but I should not have

pulled you all into it. Therefore, I shall bear full responsibility for this at all costs!”

“Oh, how nice.” Dustin smiled faintly. “I thank you for your thoughtful gesture, but no thanks. I’m

not selling it.”

“Why not?” Terrence could not believe his ears.

“Because we’re friends. Just as you do not wish to take advantage of me, I refuse to do the same!”

“That’s all right; I do not mind bearing the loss.”

“But I do. So, forget about it.”

“No! We cannot forget about it! If you think that my offer isn’t enough, I can add a bit more to the

original price that you bought it for!”

“This is not about money. It’s about principles. You said it yourself, we must be righteous and stay

true to our principles.”

“You!” Terrence was a hair’s breadth away from losing his composure. Damn it! Why was the idiot so

stubborn? He had said everything he could to convince him to sell the piece of land, but nothing

seemed to work. Exasperated, Terrence was left speechless.

“Alright, it’s getting late. I have some things to handle back at the company, so I’ll be taking my leave

with Dahlia now. You guys carry on.” Dustin could not be bothered to converse with them any longer, so

he exchanged a look with Dahlia, and they got out of the restaurant as fast as they

could.

“Hey, Dustin! You…” Refusing to let Dustin go just like that, Terrence was about to give chase but was

held back by Julie. “Terrence, you cannot be too kind. Since that idiot turned you down, let’s not push it.

Why would you give him money when he doesn’t even appreciate it?”

“Exactly! We all saw how sincere you were. He was the one who rejected your kindness. Don’t be too

hard on yourself,” Victoria echoed. In her eyes, Terrence was every bit of the perfect son–in- law. His

only drawback was that he was too righteous, which made him an easy target for others.

to take advantage of.

“If you’re still feeling bad about it, Terrence, why don’t you use the money and buy me some branded

handbags?” Julie asked coquettishly.

“Handbags? Fuck you and your handbags!” Terrence finally flipped and shoved her aside. “Do you

know that I’ve just lost two billion dollars?”

“Two billion dollars? What do you mean?” Shocked, Julie could not make heads or tails of

Terrence’s words.

“Truth be told, the land with the abandoned construction has been officially listed as the prime location

for a key development. Its value has now gone up to two billion dollars! I’d given you wealth beyond

measure when I sold you that plot of land. But look what you’ve done! You gave Dustin Rhys the

perfect opportunity to get filthy rich! I can’t believe how stupid you all are!” Terrence roared frustratedly,

growling almost. He was so close to ripping his hair out of vexation.

“Key development?”

“Two billion?”

“Immeasurable wealth?”

“Quick! Go after him!”

After a momentary stun, it finally dawned on Julie and the rest of them how big of a loss they had

made. Without a moment to spare, they immediately rushed out of the restaurant. But Dustin was no

longer anywhere to be seen.
