Chapter 265
As they walked out of Hummer Vi, Natasha, who’d put up a strong front earlier, suddenly felt her kne
es buckle under her. She almost fell t on her face. Dustin quickly caught her and asked worriedly. “Ar
e 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 rx, she felt weak.
“Ms. Harmon, I’ll carry you!” Istrid 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.” Istrid patted her chest to show she was okay.
“You’re seriously injured if I say so!” Natasha’s tone suddenly became stern. She red at Isirid.
“Huh?” The realization dawned on Istrid when she nced 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 in shock after experiencing an abduction.
“Thanks for tonight.” Natasha smiled sweetly and leaned her head against his firm chest. His masculine
pheromones made her heart race. Perhaps this was what people meant when they talked about a sen
se of
security.
“It’s no big deal. I couldn’t stand by and watch when a friend’s in trouble, right?” Dustin smiled.
“Am I only a friend?” Natasha raised an eyebrow, looking slightly bitter.
“What else could you be?” Dustin pretended not to know what she was talking about.
“Hmph! You’re so dense!” Natasha frowned and chomped down on his shoulder. Dustin hissed in pain
but didn’t dare retaliate. “This is a mark I’m leaving on you. You belong to me for as long as this is arou
nd. I’ll bite you to death if you dare reject me!” She bared her teeth as she spoke.
Dustin
grimaced but didn’t dare say anything to refute her. He savored the feeling of her soft and pliant body in
his arms; he couldn’t help feeling aroused as her sweet scent enveloped him. They hadn’t known each
other long, but he’d unknowingly
started to fall for the vivacious woman. That was why he’d been so anxious when he heard about her b
eing abducted. It was also why he’d devastated the Hummer family.
At this moment, Hummer Vi was in a mess. Dustin had crashed the ce and ughtered their men
with a single de, even crippling Joshua, who was the Hummer family’s pride and joy. The
Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Hummer family’s dignity and arrogance had been flung to the ground and repeatedly stomped on.
“Dad, I’m crippled I’m crippled!” Joshua howled as hey in bed. With his core shattered and cultivation
destroyed, his life was over.
“Josh, don’t panic. I’ll immediately have our men search for a miracle doctor. I guarantee I’ll spare no e
xpense and pay any price to have you cured!” Edwin said.
Jade nodded vigorously. “He’s right, Josh.
You’ll definitely recover from this! The Grant family has an abundance of rare medicines. I’m sure they’l
l help to restore your core!”
“A full recovery isn’t the only thing I want–I also want to get revenge! I want that Rhys brat to
pay for this!” Joshua snarled.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already informed Mark about this. He’ll be here in no time. That brat will be dead mea
t when
Mark arrives!” Jade said.
“Mark?” A trace of hope shed in Joshua’s eyes at this. “No
matter how powerful that brat is, he’s no match for Mark!” Joshua had only achieved divinity a few days
ago. He’d yet to fully adapt to this change, and his foundation had been shaky. That was why he could
only manifest 50 to 60 percent of
his abilities. Marcus Kent, on the other hand, had already achieved divinity three years ago and had ev
en ranked among the Heavenly Immortals. He was more than enough to deal with Dustin.
“Killing him swiftly would be letting him off easy. I say we go
after everyone rted to him so that he can see what it’s like to be public enemy number one!” Tina sp
at.
“You’re right. Issue an order for everyone to focus on catching Dustin and his posse. Whoever brings m
e his
head on a tter will receive a reward of a billion dors!” Edwinmanded. With that, everyone in th
e
Hummer family got to work. As the word spread, everyone was raring to
go, especially when they heard about
the reward.
At Park ce.
Jessica paced the living room, looking worried. Ruth
also fidgeted restlessly, obviously anxious. Quentin was
the only one who looked unruffled. In truth, he’d been delighted by the news of Natasha’s abduction. If
anything were to happen to her, there was a high chance of him taking over thepany. Of course, in
a best- case scenario, both Dustin and Natasha would die at Hummer Vi. That way, Quentin would fi
nally have
gotten his revenge!
“Mrs. Harmon!” The butler ran into the living room.
“So? Is there any news on Natasha?” Jessica’s heart leaped to her throat. Though she believed the Hu
mmers wouldn’t do anything rash, she couldn’t be absolutely sure.
“The shadow
guards just sent word back that Ms. Harmon’s been rescued. She’s a little roughed up but is fine
as a whole,” the butler said.
“That’s great!” Jessica heaved a sigh of relief, looking joyful.
“I knew she’d be fine! How could anything happen to her?” Ruthughed.
Quentin gnashed his teeth, looking pissed. He’d stuck around for so long to receive such terrible news–
what was wrong with the Hummer family? How weak could they be, allowing Natasha to get away so
easily?
“As expected, we made the right choice by mobilizing the shadow guards. Otherwise, this rescue missi
on
wouldn’t have been so sessful.” Jessica smiled.
“Mrs. Harmon, the shadow guards weren’t the ones who rescued Ms. Harmon,” The butler’s
expression
became a little odd.
“Who else could it be? Don’t tell me the Hummers voluntarily let her go.”
“The Hummers didn’t free her of their own volition, and neither did the shadow guards
contribute to rescuing Ms. Harmon,” the butler said. “Mr. Dustin Rhys was the one who singlehandedly
saved her. He ughtered Darkwrath, Lightwrath, Judge, and the Hummer family’s elite army. No one i
n the Hummer family was a match for him!”
His words dumbfounded Jessica and the others. Dustin had singlehandedly defeated so many people?
Was he truly human?
