The Camron family was terrified of what Scott was capable of. Eleanor’s expression softened as she heard the Camron family’s pleas.
She calmly stated, “I’m willing to give you a chance. I’ll hold off on that call and maybe even help the Camron family out of this mess.
“But, like I said, you’ve got to hand over the Dew Balm formula.”
“No problem, we’re good with that. We’ll hand over the formula.” Corey nodded eagerly. The Camron family’s life was flourishing, and they weren’t willing to risk their well-being for a simple formula. Eleanor turned to Matteo and asked, ” Mr. Camron, what’s your take on this?”
Matteo pondered, biting his lip, and eventually gave a reluctant nod. The Welch and Forrest families seemed well-prepared and determined. The imposing presence of the Moseys left the Camron family with few options.
The group with the secret that everyone desired now had to carry the weight of the sins of the guilty party that was aiming for their doom. This unexpected twist caught everyone off guard.
“Well done, those who grasped the situation are the sharp ones. You’ve made a smart choice,” Eleanor said with satisfaction.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and hand over the formula.” Elena urged.
“Sure, no problem.” Corey agreed, urging Matteo to get the formula.
“Wait!” Dustin interjected.
“The Dew Balm formula is the result of Lana’s and my hard work. You can’t just hand it over to them.”
“Enough already, okay? Don’t be so selfish. You might not fear death, but don’t drag the Camron family into this, “Eleanor said, stirring the pot.
“Mr. Rhys, have mercy. We can’t afford to provoke these people. Only by giving them what they want can we ensure our safety. I’m begging you, spare us any more trouble!” Corey pleaded.
“Dustin, Lana is already gone. I can’t bear to lose more of my family. Please step aside!” Matteo said raspily.
“Mr. Camron, this mess started because of me. I’ll handle it properly. I guarantee the safety of the Camron family,” Dustin spoke with solemn assurance.
“Guarantee?” At these words, Matteo couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh, his face twisted into a wry smile.
“Dustin, what are you using to back up that promise? You don’t have any power or influence. How can you stand against these influential families?
“Don’t fool yourself. Your actions have already led to my daughter’s death! Do you want to bring down my entire family now?”
Matteo’s voice grew louder as he spoke, showing his frustrations. Dustin tightened his lips, guilt etched across his face. “Lana’s death is my fault.
“I’ll do everything in my power to make things right and ensure your family’s well-being for the rest of your life. That’s my promise.”
“I don’t need your promises, and I don’t need your attempts at making amends. All I ask is that you stay away from us and stop causing more trouble! “Matteo shouted.
“Rhys! You heard him-the Camron family doesn’t welcome you. Get lost, or we won’t hold back!” Elena roared.
“Not holding back?”
Dustin turned toward them, coldly saying, “Oh, really? Are you actually considering laying hands on me?”
“What if we are? We came prepared today!” Elena retorted and snapped her fingers. Soon, a group of thugs rushed in, surrounding Dustin. Each one looked eager and primed for a fight.
“Dustin, I know you’ve got some moves, but these guys are handpicked experts. I doubt you can take them all on by yourself!” Elena raised her head arrogantly.
She was convinced that he wouldn’t stand a chance as Dustin was just an ordinary martial artist and that little troublemaker, Abigail, was not around.
