Chapter 303

Even after returning to the medical center, Dustin still felt

restless after the heavy blow Dahlia had given him. He never thought that

she was the kind of person who would toy with hist

emotions for revenge.

They could have ended their relationship on a good note, yet she

decided to make them enemies. Dustin just couldn't understand why. No

matter how hard he thought back, he was sure he had never once done

anything bad to her.

"Dustin, are you in trouble?" Maximus emerged from the living room

and asked. "Let me know if you need my help."

The past few days of treatment have healed his core. He might not be

as strong as before, but he was satisfied with just this.

"Won't you drink with me?" Dustin fumbled around the cabinets for two

bottles of wine. With Gregory around, there was never a shortage of

alcohol.

"Sure." Maximus sat down without a second thought.

The two men began to drink, but no one spoke, so the tension in the

air increased.

After a few glasses, Dustin eventually spoke. "How's your injury?"

"It's healing great. I'll be fine in another two days." Maximus was

filled with gratitude. "It's all thanks to your skills. I'd be doomed if

it weren't for you."

"You can stop being so formal. It sounds weird. Just talk to me

casually." Dustin topped up their glasses.

"I-I can't do that. I'll just keep talking like this." Maximus

grinned sheepishly.

"Do it your way." Dustin tipped his head back and downed his glass.

"Did you run into relationship problems?" Maximus asked, finishing

his glass as well.

"How did you know?" Dustin raised an eyebrow.

"It's easy to realize once you're in the same boat." Maximus smiled

sadly. What could be worse than someone's fiancée sleeping with their

mentor?

"That's true." Dustin calmed slightly when he thought of the things

the other man had gone through, and he began spilling everything to

Maximus, everything since he needed someone to confide in.

"Say, did I marry the wrong person to end up this way?" Dustin smiled

sadly.

"I have a different opinion, Dustin." Maximus paused. "Did you ever

think that Ms. Nicholson had no choice?"

"Couldn't she have told me why?" Dustin shook his head.

She probably would if she could." Maximus sighed, "You were married

to her for three years. You should know her best. Do you think she's that

kind of person?"

Dustin stilled for a second before recovering. "Everyone can change.

Just because she wasn't

before doesn't mean she won't be in the future. No one can truly tell

what's going through a woman's mind."

"Take it easy, Dustin. Time will prove everything." Maximus consoled

him.

"Let's stop talking about this. Let's drink!" Dustin pulled out

another two bottles of wine, fully intending to enjoy himself that night.

Just then, a black car pulled up at the entrance, and a man in a suit

trudged into the building. "Who is Dustin Rhys?"
