Chapter 2711 Dustin And Abelyn To The Rescue
“Nope,” Dustin replied without any hesitation.
“What the hell? Aren’t you supposed to be a man and say you’ll take them on?” Abelyn said with a hint of disdain in her voice.
“I am a man, but that doesn’t mean I should just charge in like a reckless fool!” Dustin snapped back at her.
If we act impulsively and make a wrong move now, it could result in all three of us losing our lives! Damn it, who on earth could’ve done this to Joan? I don’t remember us making any enemies here, so… Could it have been someone from our home country?
Dustin tensed up at the thought of that and asked nervously, “Abelyn… Are you ready?”
Abelyn had many years of training in Taekwondo and kung fu, so the two bodyguards at the door were a piece of cake for her.
“I’m ready, just leave it to me!” Abelyn patted herself on the chest confidently before heading out.
“Hey, I seem to have gotten separated with one of my friends, and I heard you two have seen her…” she greeted the two men casually while walking towards them.
“Who are you?” They asked cautiously.
“Me? Why, I’m a friend of Joan!” Abelyn replied.
“We don’t know this Joan person you’re talking about, so go away!”
“Is that so? From what I’ve heard, she followed you two into this log cabin over here…”
Abelyn pointed at the hut behind them with a sharp glint in her eyes.
Hmph… Still won’t admit to it, eh?
“Listen, you’d better mind your own business if you know what’s good for you!”
“Oooh, I’m so scared!” Abelyn said jokingly while taking a few steps back.
Dustin couldn’t help but chuckle to himself as he watched from a corner. Man, she sure is a funny one!
“Enough games! Hand her over to me right this instant!” Abelyn shouted coldly with a vicious look on her face.
“Stay out of this, you b*tch!”
“What the hell did you just call me?” Abelyn got mad when she heard that.
She then sent the guy flying a few feet back with a kick to the stomach. “Who’s the b*tch now, huh?”
Having witnessed his partner got knocked down, the other man lunged at Abelyn in retaliation, and the three of them got tangled up in a messy brawl.
Dustin seized that opportunity to sneak into the log cabin and began looking for Joan.
He held a hand over his mouth and called out to her softly, “Joan?”
Joan jumped to her feet and squinted into the darkness when she heard a familiar voice, but she couldn’t see a thing.
“Dustin?” she called out to him in response.
“Yes, it’s me. Where are you?”
The two of them then fumbled their way through the pitch-black darkness of the log cabin and were able to locate each other by following their voices.
Dustin pulled her into a tight embrace the moment he found her. He had tears in his eyes like he had been reunited with a long-lost friend, but Joan wasn’t able to see that at the time.
“Are you hurt?” Dustin asked anxiously.
Joan shook her head and replied, “I’m fine, Dustin. Come on, let’s get out of here!”
“And where do you think you’re going? Honestly, you guys underestimate me way too much!”
The lights in the log cabin were switched on all of a sudden.
What the… What’s going on? I thought she left quite a while ago! Joan thought to herself as she stared at Della for fear of what she would do to Dustin and Abelyn.
“Dustin, you and Abelyn sure are brave risking your lives to save Joan!” Della taunted him while pointing at Joan.
Dustin let go of Joan and walked up to Della as he said, “Let it go, Della! Don’t do anything rash!”
Let it go? Fat chance! Della ignored him and walked right up to Joan before lifting her chin with a vicious expression on her face.
