Joshua spat out another mouthful of blood, his face contorting in a mask of pain. He pointed a trembling finger at Dustin and cried, "Dad, he—he destroyed my cultivation!" That earlier kick had shattered his core. "What?" Edwin and the others were horrified. Joshua would be no different from a cripple with his cultivation and core destroyed. Edwin's eyes bulged with rage as he roared, "How dare you ruin my son's future, you brat!" One would recover from getting their legs broken, but there was no way to recover from a shattered core. "Dustin, you and your whole family are dead meat! From this day onward, not only have you made an enemy out of the Hummer family, but you'll also have an enemy of the Grant family and the Boulderthorn Guild! We'll chase you to the ends of the earth!" Jade shrieked, her face filled with deep hatred. Joshua had been her ticket to a great future; Dustin's kick had ruined everything. "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Shouldn't he have thought of t

After a short moment of astonishment, Joshua let out an ear-piercing scream. He sounded like a pig sent for slaughter. "How dare you, you imbecile!" Edwin's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He couldn't believe Dustin had the guts to chop Joshua's arm off in front of everyone. He'd crossed the line! "You—how dare you harm Josh!" Jade shrieked. How could a peasant like Dustin dare to rebel against them like this? Did he have a death wish? "Rhys! You're dead meat!" Tina screeched. Dustin had humiliated her before; now, Joshua was the one suffering. How could the Hummer family possibly face the world if they didn't get revenge for this? "Let her go," Dustin said coldly. "Fuck you! You have hell to pay for harming my brother!" Tina snarled. Dustin didn't waste his breath. Instead, he brandished his sword and swung it lightly, slicing Joshua's other arm off. Blood splattered over the floor, and Joshua's right arm landed in a pool of it. He howled again, his face contortin

As they walked out of Hummer Villa, Natasha, who'd put up a strong front earlier, suddenly felt her knees buckle under her. She almost fell flat on her face. Dustin quickly caught her and asked worriedly, "Are you okay? Do you feel sick?" "No, I'm just out of strength. My knees feel like jelly." She shook her head. She'd been on edge earlier; now that she could relax, she felt weak. "Ms. Harmon, I'll carry you!" Isfrid stepped forward and volunteered to help her. "I don't want to inconvenience you when you're seriously injured," Natasha said. "I'm fine. These injuries mean nothing." Isfrid patted her chest to show she was okay. "You're seriously injured if I say so!" Natasha's tone suddenly became stern. She glared at Isfrid. "Huh?" The realization dawned on Isfrid when she glanced at Dustin. "Oh, uh, yeah. I feel really dizzy." "I'll do it." Dustin looked helpless as he swept Natasha into his arms. She had a strong personality but was only an ordinary woman—she had to be

Natasha shrugged and sat at the dining table. She pulled the deviled eggs to her and said with a smile, "Thank you for breakfast, darling. You're so considerate!" "That's where you're wrong. These eggs are mine." Dahlia pulled the eggs back. "It's been three years, but I've yet to fall out of love with Dustin's cooking. Besides, he knows I love deviled eggs." "Ms. Nicholson, stop thinking so highly of yourself. What's in the past is just that—the past. These eggs belong to me now." Natasha didn't back down. She dragged the eggs to herself again. "Ms. Harmon, robbing someone of something they love isn't the best habit to have. These eggs have been cooked to my taste; they only suit me!" "What makes you think I don't like deviled eggs? I love anything Dustin cooks!" "Hmph! Just because you like them doesn't mean they suit you!" "It's up to me to decide whether they're suitable!" The conversation between the two women became increasingly heated as they dragged the plate of d

"It's you!" Dakota was momentarily taken aback when she recognized Dustin. Similarly, he looked at her funny with a hint of astonishment. Never had he expected that the two bitches were the relatives that Dahlia had mentioned to him. What a small world! "Oh, did you know each other?" Dahlia's quizzical gaze traveled between the two. "Not only are we acquainted," Dakota hissed through clenched teeth, "He's also the guy who beat us up yesterday!" "What?" Everyone was surprised to learn that. "Um, Dakota, did you get the wrong person?" Florence questioned cautiously. "No! How could I? I'd recognize him even if he turned into ashes! I also suspect my mom's gotten a headache from his slap!" Dakota seemed merciless. "Right! I must have fallen sick because of that slap! Get someone to arrest him!" Jane was bellowing in bed. She had been unable to put yesterday's events behind her, and she was extremely furious upon meeting her enemy again. "Dustin, what's the matter? Why did you
