Florence didn’t know when to stop and insisted on escalating the situation. At this point, Dustin could tolerate no more.
“All right, seems like you won’t learn your lesson till you hit a dead end! Guards! Guards! These two troublemakers are causing a disturbance! They even resorted to violence against me! Arrest them immediately!” Florence shouted.
Following her orders, guards at the entrance immediately surrounded Dustin and Abigail.
Dahlia was now a prominent figure among the Moseys. As her mother, Florence was considered a distinguished guest who enjoyed a high status. There were not many people who dared to offend them.
“Hold on!”
Just as the two sides were about to clash, Dahlia suddenly walked in and exclaimed darkly, “What’s going on here? Why are you drawing weapons? Don’t you know what day it is today?”
“Dahlia, you arrived just in time!”
Florence began complaining immediately upon seeing her. “These two were deliberately causing a scene. They even laid their hands on me.
“They have absolutely no respect for the Moseys. Hurry up and arrest them before they disrupt Sir Mosey’s birthday celebration,” Florence lied, distorting the truth skillfully.
“Who are you people? How dare you cause trouble at the Moseys’ mansion? “Dahlia shifted her attention to Dustin and Abigail, looking upset.
“Ms. Nicholson, we aren’t the ones causing trouble. It’s your mother who’s being unreasonable,” Dustin said calmly.
“We came here to congratulate Sir Mosey on his birthday. However, as soon as we entered, your mother bumped into us.
“She demanded an apology and compensation. We apologized and were willing to compensate. But she went too far, asking us to kneel and slap ourselves. It’s just too much.”
“Huh? Is that so?” Dahlia frowned slightly as she turned to her mother.
“Dahlia, don’t listen to his nonsense! It was clear that he deliberately bumped into me and provoked me on purpose.
“Just look at him! He’s obviously not a good person!” Florence kept up the act. With the Moseys backing her up, even if she was in the wrong, she could turn it around.
“Ms. Nicholson, everyone present can tell right from wrong. I believe the Moseys are not people who misuse their influence,” Dustin remarked calmly.
Dahlia frowned at his words. The person before her spoke calmly and logically and didn’t appear to be lying. Considering the expressions of those around her, she could guess who was at fault. After all, no one would be so foolish to cause a scene at Moseys’ mansion.
“Dahlia, this guy is deceiving the public! Arrest him immediately and throw him into prison!” Florence yelled.
“Silence!” Dahlia glared at her. “Today is Godfather’s birthday celebration. All the guests here are high-ranking officials and nobles. Can you not make a scene?”
The Moseys had a great reputation far and wide. If it became known that the Moseys were terrorizing their guests, it would have extremely negative consequences.
“How am I making a scene? That brat is clearly at fault.” Florence appeared aggrieved. However, under her daughter’s stern gaze, her voice grew faint as she started feeling guilty.
“I don’t care whose fault it is! This matter ends here. Anyone who continues this argument won’t like what’s going to happen to them!” Dahlia said darkly.
Even though Florence was dissatisfied, she refrained from arguing. Everything she had today was thanks to her daughter. Naturally, she wouldn’t dare go against her wishes.
