Chapter 142

"Let me go…" Dracor flailed helplessly, his face red as

he gasped for air. At that moment, not only was he bewildered by the

sudden twist of events, but he was also filled with dread! He thought

that he was a big fish in a small pond like Swinton. Who knew that he

would end up sparring against a divine–level martial artist here? A

divine–level martial artist in his twenties? It was unheard of in all of

South City. How could such an invincible lighter appear in Swinton?

"Fuck, this punk is incredible! Even our guild master was defeated by

him!" The disciples of the White Dragon guild whispered among themselves

in disbelief. Seeing as their leader had been defeated, some of them

slipped away as fast as they could. "Dracor, seems like your disciples

aren't as loyal to you as you thought." Dustin smirked. "Who–Who the hell

are you?" Dracor gritted his teeth as his veins popped from the pressure.

He didn't have the energy to struggle any further. "That's not important

right now. Go and send this message to Edwin. Tell him to bring his

daughter and apologize to me. Otherwise, I will have a personal chat with

him!" With that, Dustin punched Dracor in the stomach. Dracor spat out a

mouthful of blood as his internal energy dissipated instantly! "H–How

could you drain my energy?" Dracor widened his eyes in fear. "Why can't

I? You have lost fair and square!" Dustin swung around and threw him into

the air carelessly. "Guild master!" The remaining disciples ran up to

Dracor and helped him up. Although they were indignant, they kept a safe

distance from Dustin. "Today, I've lost. I admit my defeat. Boys, let's

go!" Dracor wiped away the blood from his face as he and his men left

with their tails between their legs. "Mr. Rhys–Did you thrash Dracor

Milfroy?" Stephan's eyes were wide with shock and amazement. "I told you.

He is no match for me." Dustin smiled easily. He handed a gemiphen pill

to Stephan. "Mr. Chapman, take this healing pill and have a good rest.

You will recover from your injuries and be as good as new tomorrow."

"Thank you, Mr. Rhys!" Stephan popped the gemiphen into his mouth without

hesitation. After a few minutes, he felt a sensation of warmth spreading

outward from his stomach. He could visibly feel. the energy from the pill

healing his wound from the inside out. His internal bleeding stopped, and

soreness slowly disappeared from his limbs. "Wow, this pill is

incredible!" Stephan blinked in surprise at how fast his Injuries healed.

1/3 Chapter 142 "Mr. Chapman, sorry for the inconvenience. You should go

back and have a rest now," Dustin said with a smile. "Yes, sir!" Stephan

nodded and made his way home. With Dustin's overwhelming powers, his help

was obviously unnecessary. That night went by in a flash. The next

morning, in a VIP room at East Swinton Hospital. "Mother, bad news!

Something terrible has happened!" James rushed into the hospital room in

a hurry, sweat pouring from his forehead. "What's the matter? Why are you

so out of breath early in the morning?" Half–asleep, Florence jumped out

of her skin at James' sudden outburst. Some other relatives who were

resting in the room looked displeased at his disturbance. "It's true!"

James was gasping for air. "I received news that the Hummers were going

to boycott us, the Nicholson family! Half of the businesses in Swinton

have us blacklisted and are unwilling to engage with our company!" "What?

Boycott us? James, are you joking? How could this be?" Florence was taken

aback at the shocking news. She could not believe that was happening.

"Why would I joke about this?" James pulled a long face. "Quine Group's

stock prices have been plummeting since this morning. If this continues,

we will be bankrupt in three days!" When James announced this, the room

erupted into chaos. "How could this happen? Why would Mr. Hummer boycott

us?" "That's right, we have nothing against the Hummers. There's no

reason for him to do this!" Everyone was at a loss about this situation.

Edwin Hummer was one of the Mighty Three! With his connections and

influence, it would be as easy as ple to destroy the Nicholson family!

"James! Tell me exactly what happened! Did we do anything to offend Mr.

Hummer?" Florence said anxiously as beads of sweat appeared on her

forehead. "It's not us, it's Dustin who offended him! I heard Dustin

showed up at the Hummers' party last night and beat up Ms. Hummer. The

Hummers are boycotting us for revengel" "That idiot again? Useless

bastard! Why do we have to clean up his mess? Now the Nicholson family

would have to pay for his deeds! Is there any justice left in the world?"

Florence spat in anger. "Why? We have already cut off ties with Dustin.

Why would the Hummer family go after us? This isn't fair!" LIL Chapter

142 "That's right! The Nicholson family has nothing to do with Dustin any

longer. He should be punished for what he had done!" "There's no use

complaining. Let's think about how to placate Mr. Hummer's anger!" The

ruckus started up again as everyone had something to say. However, no one

had any concrete ideas about how to solve this issue. Dahlia, the

backbone of the family, was still unconscious. With their status, none of

them had any right to meet with Mr. Hummer. "Is something the matter?" At

that moment. Matt walked into the hospital room. "Matt, thank goodness

you are here! You have to help us, the Nicholson family is in a crisis!"

Florence ran up to him. Matt was her last hopel The rest of them turned

to Matt expectantly, nodding in agreement. "Mrs. Nicholson, I will do my

best to help. You have to tell me what's going on." Matt said

comfortingly. "It's all Dustin's fault! Here's what happened— Florence

did not hold back and briefly explained everything that had occurred. "I

understand." Matt nodded thoughtfully. "Are you asking me to meet with

Edwin and beg for the Hummers' mercy?" "Yes, that's right! Aren't you

acquainted with Mr. Hummer? As long as you take our side, I'm sure Mr.

Hummer will relent!" Florence pleaded. "Mrs. Nicholson, it's not that I

refuse to help. However, Ms. Hummer is still unconscious after getting

beaten up so badly. If I go to Mr. Hummer at this time, I'm afraid he

would turn his anger on me." Matt replied awkwardly. "Matt! If you could

help us through this crisis, you would be our family's savior! Aren't you

interested in Dahlia? Both of you can register to be married immediately

once she regains consciousness!" Florence reassured him. "That That

doesn't sound like a good idea. I don't want to take advantage of this

situation. Why don't we consider this again after Dahlia regains

consciousness?" Mall asked. "What's the big deal? Both of you are

mutually interested in each other. It's just a matter of time before

getting engaged! Once we survive this crisis, both of you should get

married as well!" Florence promised with determination. "Well I'll do my

best." Matt nodded with a torn expression. However, on the inside, he was

elated.
