Chapter 79.

After killing the traitor, Dustin carried the weakened

Natasha to the car. The area where the snake had bitten her had turned

black and purple, and as the venom spread through her body, her entire

leg turned numb. "How troublesome." Dustin inspected the wound, his

expression turning grave. He could have treated her easily if this was

any regular snake venom. However, this venom was particularly potent.

Since Dustin lacked his medicinal herbs and acupuncture needles, he had

nothing at his disposal but his skills. It would be difficult for him to

treat the wound. It seemed the only option left was to suck the venom

out. "Roth Harmon, give me a hand!" Dustin hollered. "I'm Ruth! Ruth

Harmon!" Ruth corrected him, quickly getting into the car. She asked,

"What do you need me to do?" "Take off your sister's pants," he directed.

"Hey! What are you trying to do? You better not play around!" Ruth

sounded like she was speaking to a pervert. "Your sister has been

poisoned with a potent venom. I have to suck it out," Dustin explained.

"What?" Ruth was stunned for a moment before an odd expression took over

her face. "B–but the wound is on her thigh! You aren't trying to take

advantage of her, are you?" "What are you even thinking about right now?

Her life is on the line!" Dustin snapped. "Haven't you heard that gender

doesn't matter when treating patients?" "Oh, right." Ruth stood there

stunned. "Why are you still standing there? Take off her pants!" Dustin

rushed. "Oh, right." Ruth quickly pulled off Natasha's pants, exposing

the snake bite. Dustin cleared his mind and got to work. Although it went

against proper etiquette, saving Natasha's life came first. Dustin began

sucking out the venom. A moment later, he spat out a mouthful of dark

blood and returned his mouth to the wound without hesitation. Slowly,

Natasha regained consciousness. "What are you doing?" Natasha had a

confused expression on her face as she gazed at him passionately.

"Sucking out the snake venom," Dustin said, keeping his tone calm. "Are

you done?" Natasha asked softly. "Almost," he answered truthfully.

Natasha bit her lip as she frowned, her every gesture alluring. Dustin

gulped and lowered his head again. Dustin finally stopped

after some time when the wound had lost its dark purplish bruising. is it

over?" Natasha asked with a resentful look. Dustin cleared his throat and

answered awkwardly, "Um, you should be in the clear for now, but there's

still some leftover venom in your body. It'll be safer if you visit the

hospital." He moved to get up, wanting to leave the car. As he stood up,

his vision darkened as he fell into Natasha's arms, unconscious. "Oustin!

What's wrong? Don't scare me!" Natasha's expression changed. "Sis. the

traitor said that anyone who sucks out the venom will die instead! Is

Dustin going to die?" Ruth cried, astonished. "What are you talking

about, you idiot? Hurry! Let's get him to the hospital!" Natasha ordered.

"Okay!"Ruth did not hesitate and gave the order. The convoy pulled out of

the parking spot immediately. Unbeknownst to them, shortly after they had

left, several cars descended the mountain and swarmed the area where

their convoy had been. A car door opened, and Edwin Hummer stepped out.

Upon seeing the corpses of Tilda and her men, his jaw crocced. "How could

this be?" Edwin exclaimed, his eyes wide with disbelief. It was worth

noting that Tilda had been planted in the Harmon family to turn the tide

during crucial moments like this. But instead, she had gotten caught up

in the mess herself. It was a double whammy! "This is bad!" Edwin

frowned, displeased. Besides the mission failing, he had also lost a

valuable line on his enemies. If he did not give the higher–ups a

satisfactory answer soon, he could kiss his position goodbye! Today's
