“So, what you mean is that only they can bully us, but we aren’t allowed to retaliate? So powerless people like us
can only ever be terrorized and humiliated by powerful people like you?
“Is it a sin to even think about protecting ourselves?” Dustin mocked.
Despite losing her memories, Dahlia remained the same. She was still prejudiced and self-righteous. She never got
the situation straight before jumping to conclusions.
“I don’t understand what you mean.” Dahlia frowned slightly.
“My people came today to discuss business. As a shareholder of Camron Medicals, you should treat them with
courtesy instead of resorting to threats.
“We would naturally welcome them if they were guests. But if they are enemies, don’t blame us for being rude,
“Dustin retorted.

“Ms. Nicholson, this was a misunderstanding.” Lana suddenly stepped up and smiled apologetically.
“Ms. Amberson here insisted on cutting the line earlier. She even showed off the Mosey family badge, intimidating
us in various ways.
“We resisted, but she threatened to damage our company instead. Dustin just acted impulsively in a fit of anger.”
“Is that so?” Dahlia turned toward Julie. Julie’s expression stiffened but she quickly put on a bold front and
explained, “Dahlia, don’t listen to their nonsense!
“I came here to discuss business sincerely, but Dustin sought revenge and tried to kick us out. I was too angry and
spoke a few harsh words, but nothing more!”
“That’s right, Ms. Dahlia. I can testify that it’s all Dustin’s fault!” Elena immediately spoke up.
“Dustin was not only acting unreasonably but also resorted to violence. Look at Julie’s face, it’s swollen!”
“Dahlia, I’ve never felt so insulted before. You must stand up for me!” Julie pleaded tearfully, looking aggrieved.
When Dahlia saw Julie’s swollen face with a clear handprint still visible, her expression grew dark. She questioned
harshly, “Dustin, were you the one who hit Julie?”
“Yes, but only be-” Dustin was about to explain when Dahlia interjected.
“So, it was you! And here I thought others were pushing you around. It turned out that you were the bully! How
dare you claim innocence?”
Dustin frowned, his expression turned grim. If it were any other person who said that, he wouldn’t have cared less.
But it was from Dahlia, and her words cut him like a knife.
“Ms. Nicholson, everything has its reasons. You shouldn’t only listen to one side of the story.” Lana hurriedly
explained when she saw the situation turning unfavorable.
“Everyone here witnessed the situation clearly. Ask anyone, and you’ll know the truth.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Alright! Then I’ll ask and find out who exactly is at fault!”
Dahlia glanced around before her gaze settled on a woman. She asked, “Miss, please tell me truthfully what
happened earlier. Did Dustin initiate the fight?”
“Think carefully before you speak. Don’t fabricate stories. If you dare cover for Dustin, you’ll bear the
consequences!” Elena warned.
The lady turned pale and nodded repeatedly. “That’s right, Dustin started the violence, and Ms. Amberson was the
victim. I saw everything.”
“What?” Lana frowned when she heard her. She didn’t expect her to lie so boldly in public.
However, upon second thought, it seemed understandable. Who would dare offend two of Oakvale’s greatest
families and one of the ancient houses?
Even if they did something wrong, it could be covered up with their influence.
“Dustin! What else do you have to say?” Dahlia’s expression turned cold when she got her answers.
She commanded, “I order you now to apologize and compensate Julie immediately. That way, you still have a way
out. Otherwise, poisoning alone is enough for you to spend half of your life in prison!”
