Chapter 390


    As night descended, there was amotion at the Nicholson Vi as the entrance door was busted do


    wn. Then, Gloria and her bodyguards from the Nicholson Family barged in pompously. Two men, who


    were more than six feet tall, were eye–


    catching. The two guards shared some resemnce, and the muscles on their bodies were chiseled lik


    e rock cliffs. They stood there like two huge mountains that evoked fear.


    “Dahlia Nicholson! Get out right now!” Gloria yelled at the top of her lungs when she stepped foot in the


    house. Her face was still bruised from Dustin’s beating in the morning, looking terrifying, especially wit


    h the awful scowl.


    “Oh! If it isn’t Madam Gloria? What brings you here?” Florence emerged from the kitchen but jumped at


    the sight of the entourage.


    “I’m asking you now. Where are Dahlia and Dustin?” Gloria hissed through gritted teeth.


    “They haven’t been back since the morning. I have no idea where they went!” Florence replied


    meekly.


    “You have no idea? Are you trying to hide them?!” A woman with a bandaged face made her way


    out of the crowd.


    Florence was taken aback by the figure, whom she failed to recognize. “Um, who are you?”


    “I’m Dakota!” The woman in bandages yelled.


    “Oh, it’s Dakota! What happened to your face? How did you get injured this badly?” Florence was


    shocked


    by the extent of Dakota’s injuries. One couldn’t tell her nose apart from her mouth, and it was harder to


    recognize her as she was all wrapped up in bandages.


    “How dare you ask me that question? It’s all thanks to your dearest daughter and son–in–


    advantage, given that she was rtively talentless in other fields.


    However, Dustin destroyed her face with all the kicking and beating. It was not surprising that she woul


    d be infuriated.


    “What? Did they beat you up? That can’t be true!” Florence gasped in disbelief.


    “I am not the only victim. They also hurt Grandma! We must use the housew on those two treachero


    us jerks!” Dakota yelled again.


    “Florence, get them here, or I’ll make you regret it!” Gloria grew impatient.


    “Madam Gloria, I have nothing to do with it! I really don’t know where they went!” Looking nervous, Flor


    ence added, “My daughter is kind and innocent. She can’t possibly hit anyone! I think this must be Dust

    in’s doing. Just arrest him if you want!”


    “Hmph! You and your sweet words! I want her pped!” Gloria roared with rage.


    “Yes, Madam!” The elderly servants that came with Gloria immediately went up and pinned Florence do


    wn. The biggest of them all pped Florence hard on the face until she was seeing stars and bleeding f


    rom the nose.


    “How dare you beat my mom? I’m not going easy on you!” James, who had descended the stairs, was f


    urious at the sight and dashed over while yelling.


    “Cougar!” Gloria gave one bulky bodyguard a look, and he went up to grab James by the cor, lifting t


    he poor dude into the air like he was a puppy.


    “Ugh…” James‘ face turned a deep shade of red as he was suffocated. He struggled for his life, but he


    couldn’t free himself.


    “Let go of my son!” A worried Florence butted against the elderly servants, grabbed a fruit knife from th


    e table, and plunged it into Cougar’s abdomen.


    They all heard a tiny nking sound, but Cougar remained standing. The de in Florence’s hand


    broke into two.


    “What?” She stared nkly at the knife.
