“Marriage?” Dahlia frowned immediately upon hearing this. They had just met today, and she barely knew anything
about “Rhett”. Even if he had saved her life, agreeing to a marital commitment was a big jump.
It was evident from Anders’ words that he saw her as a tool, a commodity that was up for sale. It made her
extremely uncomfortable.
“Anders, marriage is a serious matter. You shouldn’t treat it lightly,” Seamus raised an eyebrow.
“Godfather, Mr. Adams and Dahlia are a match made in heaven. Coupled with his heroic actions, they seemed
destined for each other. If they got engaged today, it would undoubtedly be a doubly joyous occasion,” Anders
advised.
“Dahlia, what do you think?” Instead of giving a direct answer, Seamus turned to Dahlia for her opinion.
“Godfather, I’m extremely grateful to Mr. Adams for saving me, but to repay him with marriage is something I just

“Dahlia, marriage is often decided by the parents. I’m afraid you have no say in this,” Anders said with a smirk.
“If I have no say, then you certainly have no say, either,” Dahlia retorted.
“Why not? An elder brother is just like a father.”
Maintaining his composure, Anders turned to Dustin with a smile and asked, “Mr. Adams, what do you think?
“I appreciate your goodwill, Sir Anders, but I’m afraid I’m not worthy of Ms. Nicholson with my humble status. There
is no need for marriage,” Dustin declined politely.
“Mr. Adams, don’t underestimate yourself. Everyone here witnessed your heroic deeds earlier. With a little bit of
effort, your future will be limitless. You and Dahlia are a perfect match.”
Anders continued persuading him, Think about it. If you marry Dahlia, you will become a part of the Mosey family. If
you encounter any problems in the future, we won’t stand idly by.
“Moreover, Dahlia is an exceptional beauty ranked on the Beauty Ranking with countless admirers. This opportunity
is one in a million. You should seize it.”
His words stirred a commotion. Plenty of young talents looked at Dustin with envy and jealousy.
“This guy actually managed to get a marriage proposal from the Veros Warrior. He’s really lucky!”
“Dahlia is a renowned beauty and Sir Mosey’s goddaughter. Anyone who marries her will not only have power and
influence but also have a beautiful woman to go home to. It’s like hitting the jackpot!”
“Damn it! Why aren’t I that lucky?”
The crowd whispered among themselves. To become Seamus’ son-in-law was something countless people dreamt
of. Not to mention, Dahlia’s beauty made it seem like a deal made in heaven.
“You’re right, Sir Anders, marrying Ms. Nicholson would definitely make my life easier
A sly smile formed on Anders’ lips when he heard Dustin. As expected, few men could resist the temptation of both

However, his smile froze with Dustin’s next words. “Nevertheless, I must decline because I already have a fiancée.
“What?” Anders frowned.
“Mr. Adams, are you sure you won’t reconsider? Is your fiancée more beautiful or influential than Dahlia?”
“It has nothing to do with appearance or influence. We love each other, and that is more than enough,” Dustin
replied earnestly.
“You-” Anders found himself momentarily at a loss of words. This guy was like a block of wood, completely
unresponsive to his efforts.
And it wasn’t only Anders. Nearly everyone present was astonished and confused. Dustin’s outright refusal was
unexpected.
This was a golden opportunity that only came once in a lifetime. While others prayed and wished for this chance,
Dustin appeared indifferent to the whole affair.
Was he genuinely in love, or just a complete idiot?
