Chapter 394

"What did you say?" Dahlia frowned at him.

"Was it not clear enough? I shall repeat myself then." The smile disappea

red from Edwin's face. "I will only spare one person. Either that old wom

an or Dustin. Now, it's your turn to decide who's living and who's dying.

"

"Dahlia! Just let Dustin go! It's your chance to redeem yourself!" Dakota

started yelling.

"Right! If you save me today, I will forgive your wrongs and even help yo

u secure the chairman position!" Gloria dangled a promise as well. She lo

st her mind at that moment because of Edwin's mercilessness. He could not

be reasoned with, and he would take any life without hesitation. She sti

ll had a lot to live for and refused to be sacrificed.

"Edwin Hummer! We do not have grudges against you! Why do you have to com

e after us?" Dahlia frowned deeply.

"You don't?" Edwin laughed maniacally, throwing his head back. "Oh, Dahli

a Nicholson, why don't you ask the people around you about the grudges be

tween us?"

After Edwin's son and daughter were both killed and his family went throu

gh a massacre, he developed a vendetta against Dustin Rhys. Dahlia was wr

ong to claim that there was nothing

between them.

"Edwin Hummer, just come at me if you want revenge. Why do you have to pu

ll tricks?" Unfazed,

Dustin remarked.

"I would have killed you if I wanted to. But I will not make it an easy d

eath for you. I want you to witness your family and friends dying in thei

r pools of blood. I want to see anger, despair, and remorse in you. That

way, you'll have a taste of the excruciating grief!" Edwin cackled like a

madman. He had nothing more to lose ever since he lost his children.

"Do you think you are capable of doing that?" Dustin had a calm look in h

is eyes. Many wanted

him dead, but he has been unharmed so far.

"Hah! I know you are powerful. It's hard to take revenge on my own. But t

oday, I came prepared. I did not mind spending a fortune on hiring the th

ree gold–

tier assassins from the Bounty League just to take you down. With them he

re, you are destined to die, even if you are an invincible

monster."

As he was speaking, he made a gesture, and three people behind him took a

step forward. The short guy

on the left was Hillcrest. Standing in the middle was a man with gray hai

r, who had oddly ape–

like, lengthy arms that reached his knees. On the right was a lady wearin

g a mask. She was dressed in a bodycon suit, which flaunted her curvy fig

ure. The two knives she held were sparkling dimly and were obviously

dripping with poison.

"On the left is Hillcrest. Snow Monkey is the one in the middle. You'll a

lso see Scorpion on the right. They are all gold–

tier assassins." Edwin generously introduced the assassins

to Dustin to instill fear and despair in him.

"You rascal! It's your honor to die in our hands." Hillcrest grinned.

"Let's get this over with and bag the money." Snow Monkey remained expres

sionless.

"Haha… It's a pity that a handsome guy like you is meeting your end today

. Fancy having fun with me before that?" Scorpion licked her lips greedil

y.

The air was filled with dread upon the entrance of the three assassins. T

he people in the room started trembling uncontrollably.

"My gosh! What is that guy doing, putting together three gold–tier

assassins?" Tarragon was covered in a cold sweat. It was rare enough to c

ome across a gold–tier assassin. It would be his

first time witnessing three of those working together, which was unheard

of.
