Chapter 389

"I can't pick! They taste different, and the choice will depend on the ti

me, the place, and the preference of the person." Dustin bit the bullet a

nd offered a neutral opinion.

"Hmph! You're really good at talking yourself out of situations!" Dahlia

rolled her eyes, but at least she stopped bugging him.

"No matter what, you have to pick the ribs!" However, Natasha was more ag

gressive, supported by the confidence that she had Dustin wrapped around

her finger. He could only smile without saying a word as he was drenched

in cold sweat.

"Dear, come with me. I have something to discuss with you." After the hea

rt–stopping lunch, Dustin was called to the side to talk by Natasha.

Dahlia pretended that she was out for a casual stroll to eavesdrop. Howev

er, Natasha immediately noticed her plans and dragged Dustin into her car

, keeping everyone out of their private

discussion.

"Natasha, what do you want to discuss?" He was curious.

Natasha suddenly announced, "I'll be honest with you–

I might need to leave Swinton for a while."

"Leaving Swinton? Where to?" He was taken aback,

"I'm going to my hometown in Millsburg." Her expression dimmed at the tho

ught. "I have some family matters to tend to. And I need to take care of

it right away."

"What's the important matter? Do you

need my help?" He prodded cautiously. He knew that it must be a complicat

ed matter because he rarely saw Natasha with a solemn face.

"It's fine. Just a private matter. I can take care of it myself." She squ

eezed a smile at him. She wanted to tell him the truth very badly, but sh

e couldn't do so. Despite Dustin's outstanding martial arts skills, he wa

s far from being able to take down the Grant Family.

As one of The Tremendous Three, the Grants were influential across the mi

litary, the government, and the business scene. One could say that they w

ere invincible in the Southern province.

A single individual could never fight against a top dog like the Grants,

and the last thing she wanted was to get him involved in the mess.

"Natasha, you must let me know if you are in trouble. Don't put on a brav

e face

and pretend that everything's fine," he assured her with a serious face.

"Don't worry. I know what to do." She beamed at him, looking relieved. It

was worth taking the huge risk on her own after seeing him get nervous fo

r her.

"How long do you plan to stay in Millsburg?" He asked her.

"I'm not sure. It could be as quick as three days, or as long as seven da

ys."

"Cool. I will call you in three days. If you haven't settled the issue, I

will head over to help." He was being serious.

"No, it's fine." She shook her head and rejected his offer. But he cut he

r off and insisted. "You don't have a say this time! Just listen to me!"

"Alright." She gave him a helpless nod, but her heart was bursting with j

oy.

At that moment, someone

rapped on the car window. It was Dahlia, standing out there with a hostil

e look in her eyes. "What are

you talking about? Are you not done yet? Shall I serve you tea?"

Dustin coughed awkwardly and smiled. "I'll get out now." Then, he opened

the door to leave.

"Wait!" Natasha suddenly reached out and wrapped an arm around his neck.

Then, she gave him a kiss with her red lips.

He let out a muffled moan and tasted the sweetness whirling in his mouth.

His body stiffened, and his mind went blank. Did she pull the same trick

again? This time, she was more bold and

passionate.

"You-

" Dahlia glared at them and dragged Dustin out of the car. Feeling humili

ated and angered, she yelled, "Natasha Harmon, what are you doing?"

"Not bad. He's getting better at kissing." Natasha licked her red lips, l

ooking as though she wanted more. Flashing a suggestive smile, she said t

o Dustin, "Stay home while I'm gone. I'll be back in two days for you."

With that, she stamped on the accelerator and sped away.

"She's shameless!" Dahlia stomped furiously. Too bad she could never get

herself to imitate Natasha's coy behavior.
