Chapter 857


    “If you don’t believe me, feel free to leave,” Dustin Rhys remarked, his tone direct.


    Dustin wasn’t one for idle chatter; he simply told the guest to go.


    Dahlia Nicholson disyed extreme narcissism, truly pushing the boundaries.


    “Indulging in desire again, I see? Quite juvenile,” Nikki remarked, a hint of mockery in her voice. “Alright


    then, if you want to y, I’m in until the end. Hope you don’t end up regretting it. Let’s go!” Nikki


    dered, taking a step forward.


    “Offered a chance, and it went to waste. Now Dahlia Nicholson’s riled up, and regrets won’t serve you!”

    “If you’re sensible, a swift apology to my elder sister might earn her forgiveness.”


    Jade Maiden Pce disciples exuded arrogance, as if watching a spectacle.


    They seemed prepared for Dustin Rhys to plead.


    Yet, surprisingly, he remained calm, unmoved even when Dahlia Nicholson exited the meeting hall.


    As if her departure was of no concern.


    “Leaving, you say?” Nikki paused by the door, casting a nce back. “This is your prime opportunity to


    keep me. Miss it, and you’ll rue it forever!”


    Dustin Rhys disyed no reaction, enjoying his tea leisurely, as if he hadn’t heard.


    “Enduring this? Let’s see how long you hold out!” Nikki clenched her teeth and left without a backward


    nce.


    Dahlia Nicholson had to admit, Dustin Rhys was sharp, yet fate was against him.


    All his calctions and caution amounted to naught.


    Shouldn’t a man just be straightforward, even if it meant being a loyalpanion?


    Did he really think these tactics were effective?


    Preposterous!


    Dustin Rhys would need to beg her to return and make amends today. The goddess’s dignity and pride


    were at stake!


    “Dahlia Nicholson’s gone; your tears won’t alter it now!”


    “Deserved it! Stirred the elder sister’s anger, now you won’t even qualify as apdog!”


    “Thought you could win the elder sister, Dahlia Nicholson, this way? Truly dramatic!”


    “A man should stand his ground, note begging to us!”


    Jade Maiden Pce disciples joined Nikki, all exiting while casting reproachful words.


    Nikki’s departure was marked by her haughty stride, maintaining her regal air, still a fairy of high rank.


    “Dustin Rhys, this mess is your doing! Dahlia Nicholson’s departure is on you!”


    Observing their departure, Hong Qingxia grew anxious.


    “I’m to me? Your elder sister led the drama, feigning sentiment.” Dustin Rhys shrugged.


    “True, Dahlia Nicholson’s a bit full of herself, but her beauty invites unwee advances. Her caution


    is justified.” Hong Qingxia exined.


    “Others might be taken, but not me.” Dustin Rhys sipped from his cup.


    Unperturbed, Hong Qingxia hurriedly chased Dahlia Nicholson, pulling Dustin Rhys along. “Wait! Dahlia


    Nicholson, just a moment! Dustin Rhys wants to talk to you!”


    Nikki’s lips curled, as if she’d foreseen this.


    Turning, she crossed her arms, a regal posture. “What’s this? Can’t keep up the act anymore? Thought


    you were so resilient, but in the end, my allure was too much. Speak up then, I’m curious. Why are you


    pleading with me?”


    Dustin Rhys gestured to the left and said gravely, “You’re headed the wrong way. The gate’s over there.


    Please, proceed.”
