Chapter 569

"Have you asked me for permission before taking her away?" Dustin stood i

n front of Tyler, blocking his path. He had a frosty expression as he sto

od unyielding.

"Huh?" The guests were dumbfounded and in shock. They could not believe s

omeone would dare to challenge Tyler This person must've had nerves of st

eel.

Zoey's eyes widened in surprise. "What's Dustin doing up front? Doesn't h

e value his life?" Even if they disregarded Tyler's background, the armed

guards behind him were terrifying enough.

Zeke sneered. "Hmph, he must have a death wish to challenge General Lionh

eart!" Tyler commanded the armed guards with an air of dominance. With ju

st a single command, he could

have Dustin shot into oblivion

"Fool! He thinks he

can show off in front of Tyler just because he's friends with Patrick. Wh

at a joke." Gordon looked like he was looking at a corpse. While Patrick

held a high social standing, he had no official position. He was absolute

ly incomparable to Tyler.

"This is spelling trouble." Adrianna frowned slightly. Even though she ad

mired Dustin's courage in standing up for the woman he loved, it was too

dangerous in this situation.

You dare stop me?" With his hands still behind his back, Tyler sized him

up. His chilling gaze fixed on him, like that of a predator locking onto

his prey.

"Why not? Natasha has every right to refuse to marry you. I won't allow y

ou to force her to marry you in public," Dustin stated calmly.

"You won't agree?" Tyler raised an eyebrow. "So what? Do you really think

you can stop me?"

"You can try. But I strongly advise against it. Otherwise, I'll beat the

shit out of you," Dustin spat,

word for word.

"What?" The guests erupted in an uproar at his words.

"Damn! Is this kid insane? He's incredibly daring."

"He's too brave for his own good!"

"He's openly challenging General Lionheart! He must have a death wish."

The guests broke out into a discussion, with Dustin appearing like an idi

ot to them. Even the Harmons were pressured into silence at Tyler's appea

rance. Where did this insignificant kid get the courage to act so boldly

in front of such an influential figure?

"Hmph! What an idiot!" Dylan sneered. He wasn't a match for Tyler, let al

one that loser Dustin

"He has commendable courage. Sadly, he won't be living for long." Kate re

joiced in his misfortune. She had always disliked Dustin, especially cons

idering her brother's death had something to do with him. That was why sh

e desperately wished for a tragedy to befall him.

"Hector, you didn't plan this, did you? What can an insignificant brat li

ke him accomplish?" Trent was frustrated. Dustin was only making things w

orse by challenging Tyler.

Hector's brows were locked in a frown as he

remained silent. The time was not right, and he had to keep waiting.

Natasha, on the other hand, sat beside him in worry, at a loss for words.

In the face of his boastful statement, Tyler let out a chuckle. "Do you k

now what you just said?"

"No matter what I said, I've given you a warning. So stop whatever you're

planning. Don't make me hit you." Dustin's expression was unwavering.

"You've got balls." Tyler nodded.

"I admire your bravery. Sadly, you're not qualified to play the hero in f

ront of me. I'll give you three seconds. Get lost! Or die!"

The armed guards behind him raised their guns at his words, rows of gun b

arrels aimed directly at every part of Dustin. They would immediately sho

ot their target into oblivion upon their general's

orders.

"Hold it!"

"Stop right there!"
