This had never happened before. Cody and Harper were speechless. They looked at each other in defeat. They had no idea that Dexter, the person they’d been trying their best to bootlick, could be this useless.
He actually apologized publicly because the boy toy threatened him. What an embarrassment! It looked like the Chaos Demon was nothing but a title.
Natasha quietly observed the whole event unfolding with a smile on her face. It was true that Dustin was unyielding. He’d never let these rich playboys have their way.
“How do you propose to compensate me for my emotional distress?” Dustin asked.
“Why don’t you give me a price?”
Dexter replied.
“I can see that the Fallon family is quite wealthy. How about three million?” Dustin said calmly.
“What? Three million? This is daylight robbery!” Harper yelled in surprise. “Dustin Rhys! You’re asking for too much!” Cody said with a gloomy expression.
Was this guy crazy? Besides injuring Dexter, he was now asking for a compensation of three million dollars right off the bat! He wasn’t even hurt in the fight! He must have pulled that number out of thin air.
“Why? Do you think it’s too little? I shall add a few million more then.” Dustin decided to increase the amount right away.
“You” Harper was about to protest loudly, but Dexter gave her a steely glare. Her face immediately paled, and she quickly covered her nose and mouth without saying another word.
“Please give me some time to prepare the money. I’ll give you the full amount this time tomorrow.” Dexter mumbled in a gruff voice.
“Cool,” Dustin replied with a smile. ” We have a deal then.”
Dexter nodded without saying another word. How humiliating. He had never been shamed like this. Regardless, he had no choice in this current situation.
“Hurry! Barricade the area!”
Suddenly, a whole troop of fully armored soldiers rushed in aggressively at the sound of a loud command. They blocked off all the entry points at the event hall as soon as they entered.
The troop leader was a stern-looking man in his forties or fifties, a burly figure dressed in army uniform. From the badge on his shoulder, his ranking was higher than Dexter’s.
“It’s Dante Fallon!” The crowd called out in surprise when they saw the middle-aged man. The Fallon family was a big family, as Mr. Fallon Senior had ten children.
Dante was one of the outstanding children. He was already a Cardinal Dragon Marshal in his forties. He controlled the elite army troops and was very powerful.
The most important thing was that Dante was infamous for being the family guardian. If anyone dared to hurt any Fallon family member, he’d hunt them down relentlessly.
No one expected Dante, who was known to be short-tempered, to show up after Dexter was defeated. Seemed like this matter had become very serious. If anyone dared to stand up against him today, they’d be asking for death.
“Here they come! Help has finally arrived!” Harper was very happy to see Dante and his troop. She had been waiting for so long for the help from the Fallon family to arrive. Her efforts were not in vain.
“Dustin Rhys, you’re dead meat today.” Cody snickered. Dante had always been the family guardian. Dustin must have seriously provoked Dante by beating Dexter up.
Natasha wouldn’t even be able to appease Dante once he was angered. Dustin was done for today!
“Uncle Dante! You’ve finally arrived!” Dexter was very glad to see his savior as he limped forward. “You piece of trash!” With a gloomy expression, Dante gave him a sound slap without saying another word.
