Chapter 184 Dustin seemed to understand the situation well enough, casting a look at Ernest before speaking, "Mr. Collins can handle this. He won't let personal issues affect his work. And as for today, our security failed to prevent unauthorized entry, so it's not all on Mr. Collins." Conrad's face turned beet red, clearly not expecting Dustin to defend Ernest and undermine his authority as CEO in such a way.
"Mr. Wagner, I'm in charge of the amusement park now. Lethandle things here," Dustin's words were a direct challenge to Conrad's authority.
That nearly made steam cout of Conrad's ears. Only because it was Dustin, his own brother, did he refrain from throwing him out on the spot. "Fine, if anything like this happens again, you and he will both be held responsible," Conrad spat out furiously before storming off.

Dustin then turned to Ernest. "Draft a report on this incident. As for the damaged equipment, I'll have it repaired, but the cost will be on you or your company." His words were a clear separation of professional and personal matters, quite magnanimous.
Ernest, not lacking in responsibility, simply responded with a firm "Okay." Dustin nodded slightly and walked away, not looking at me, but I knew if it weren't for my sake, he wouldn't have sided with Ernest.
His direct yet restrained affection for me, even to the point of standing against Conrad, filledwith both guilt and gratitude, feelings I could hardly repay.
With the situation resolved, I saw no reason to stay and glanced at Ernest before leaving.
But as soon as I drove out of the amusement park, Conrad's car blocked mine. He got out, opened my door, and sat down, "Drive." I was unsure of his intentions. "Mr. Wagner, if you have something to say, please do. I need to get to work soon." "Just drive!" he demanded, pulling at his collar in frustration.
He was like a lion with tussled mane, real nasty when ticked off. Gripping the steering wheel, I asked, “Where to, Mr. Wagner?" "Just drive," he barked again.
Knowing further questions were pointless, I hit the gas and headed towards the Wagner family estate. Conrad realized my direction, "Who said I wanted to go back to the Wagner estate?" "Well, you didn't say not to," I retorted.

If they dare to mess with the Wagner Group's property, it shows how powerful they are. So, you must realize what they might do next, right?" Conrad rarely spoke so much in one breath.
He was warningto keep my distance from Ernest, implying that Ernest's enemies might targetnext. "Mr. Wagner, have you forgotten?
There was a girl who liked you once. To forceaway from you, she lockedin the hospital morguel and warnedto leave you, or'd end up a corpse there. Yet, even after that, I didn't leave you; P continued being your girlfriend," I said, making Conrad's expression even grimmer.
"I, Felicia, am not one to be intimidated or to bury my head in the sand at the first sign of trouble," I stated firmly to Conrad. "Felicia, don't be ungrateful!" Conrad ripped off his tie and wrapped it around his wrist in frustration.
"Conrad, we're over. Whether I live,
die, or get kidnapped, it's none of your concern anymore. Focus om those you should care about," finished just as a message popped up on my phone. I connected my phone to the car's display, and a message from Haley flashed: Felicia, I'm waiting for you here. Attached was an address link.
