Seeing Quentin die such a sudden death, the crowd was frozen with fright.
Their eyes protruded, and disbelief was written across their faces. They
could never have imagined Dustin to be so daring as to kill someone over
a mere misunderstanding. He was swift, brutal, and very vicious. He neve
r even gave Quentin a chance to negotiate. Shouldn't every hostage be giv
en a chance to negotiate first? Where was the reason for killing someone
straight away without saying anything first? He was so unpredictable.
"It's over. It's really over this time." Ruth smacked her forehead and sh
ut her eyes. Il Dustin was just a suspect before this, he was now a murde
rer, no matter what the truth was. From that moment on, Dustin was the Ha
rmon family's public enemy! After a short moment of silence, the crowd la
unched into uproar.
"How
dare you kill someone with all of us watching! Today will be your last da
y!"
*Fuck! Is that idiot crazy? How could he be so bold as to kill a member o
f the Harmon family on their very own turf? He's a lunatic!"
"Burning bridges with the Harmon family so openly? I've never seen someon
e so extreme."
Because of Dustin's actions, the entire family gathering turned into chao
s. Some people were in shock, others were shouting furiously, and some ev
en felt in awe of him.
"Imbecile! You imbecile!" Seeing his son's body. Trent was so outraged th
at he vomited blood and collapsed onto the floor.
"How dare you kill my nephew! I'll rip you to pieces!" After getting his
senses back, Jacob bellowed furiously." What are you guys waiting for? Ki
ll him!"
"Stop! Everyone stop!" A feminine shout sounded out. It was Natasha runni
ng back after being dragged away earlier. She barged her way through the
crowd and stood in front of Dustin, looking like she would defend him til
l the end.
"Natasha! What are you doing? You can't possibly be defending that murder
er!" Jacob shouted angrily.
"Natasha! Hurry up and move
aside! That man has lost his mind!" Jessica yelled in panic.
"I already saw what happened just now. If you guys hadn't pushed
him to his limits. Dustin wouldn't have made an impulsive mistake like th
at." Natasha still attempted to defend him.
"This is absurd! He killed your cousin. Not only do you not blame him, bu
t you're even defending him. Are you even a part of the Harmon family?!"
Jacob was beside himself with rage.
"That's right! I think you've become blinded to be defending a murderer!"
"You really are in cahoots with him!"
Natasha's attitude pissed off all the Harmons. She was a turncoat and a h
eartless traitor!
"Dustin! Quick, take me hostage! It's the only way you can leave this pla
ce alive!" Natasha whispered. She
knew that saying anything else would be useless at that point, and the on
ly way she could keep Dustin alive was to go with this underhanded plan.
"It's not that serious. Give me three minutes, and I can explain everythi
ng." Dustin said with a slight smile. Natasha's selfless protection warme
d his heart.
"What's there to explain? Quentin's dead. Nobody will believe anything yo
u say!" Natasha said anxiously. If she wasn't worried that people would s
ee through their act, theri she even wished she could hold a knife to her
throat.
"As long as you believe me." Dustin said calmly.
"What exactly are you up to?" Natasha asked with a frown. She really didn
't know how he could be so calm when the situation had already escalated
to such a point.
