“Thank you, Ms. Nicholson, but that won’t be necessary.” Dustin shook his head without taking the
name card. “What?” Dahlia raised her eyebrow, surprised.
“Are you sure you don’t want to think about it?” There were only a few people who would reject her
offer. Dustin not only rejected it altogether, he didn’t even hesitate.
“No, thank you. Being an insurance agent is pretty good. I won’t adapt to a corporate lifestyle.” Dustin
declined again.
“Hey! Do you know how many people are dying to get into Ms. Nicholson’s company? She’s giving you
a chance, don’t be ungrateful!” Elena said arrogantly.
As Sir Mosey’s goddaughter, even the aristocrats in Oakvale had to show Dahlia respect. How dare an
insurance agent decline her offer? He was disrespectful!
“Why don’t you take the offer instead? I don’t need it.” Dustin glanced at her coldly. “You-!” Elena was

“Forget about it. Since he refused, I won’t force him. I’ll be off first.” Dahlia left after saying that. She
wasn’t the kind of person who took the initiative to speak up, and compromising was simply out of the
question. In reality, she had only extended the offer out of curiosity.
“Hmph! You’re as stubborn as a mule! You’ll regret it sooner or later!” Elena glared at Dustin before
leaving with Dahlia.
“You actually refused a benefactor willing to be your mentor? I can’t tell if you’re self-aware or just an
idiot,” Vivian said sarcastically.
“Great opportunities don’t come by often. You’ve missed out on a chance of becoming successful.”
Evan sneered, looking at Dustin like he was a fool.
Dahlia had personally extended an invitation. While others could never receive that kind of treatment
even if they begged, this brat declined repeatedly. What a fool!
“Alright, let’s not talk about that anymore. I’m getting hungry. Let’s go back and get some food.” Sheila
mediated the situation.
She was happy that Dustin didn’t fall for a beautiful woman. Although she was beautiful too, she was
incomparable to an exquisite beauty like Dahlia. That was why she was satisfied with the outcome.
After leaving the horse ranch, they went back to the Murray residence. However, as soon as they
walked through the doors, a middle-aged man blocked their path.
The man had a muscular physique and a commanding presence. He exuded an oppressive aura just
by standing there. This man was the current head of the Murrays Edgar Murray!
“Uncle Edgar?” Sheila’s smile faltered. Growing up, she had always felt intimidated by her uncle who
rarely smiled or spoke.
“Where did all of you go earlier?” Edgar spoke sternly with his hands behind his back. “We went to the
horse ranch, why?” Sheila responded.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“So you had something to do with Roxanne getting hurt?” Edgar questioned. “That was an accident. It
had nothing to do with us.” Sheila shook her head.
“An accident?” Edgar scoffed. “Midnight Shadow is well-trained. Why would it hurt its owner? You must
have done something!”
“We really didn’t, Uncle Edgar. Roxanne did it to herself,” Sheila tried to explain.
“Shut up!”
Edgar glared at her and roared, “I’m the head of this family, and I say you did it! That’s final!
“How dare you harm my daughter? You have committed a grave offense! “Apprehend all of them!
Anyone who resists will be shot dead on the spot!”
Following the order, a large number of armed soldiers rushed in from both sides, surrounding the
group. Right away, the atmosphere grew tense.
