“Have you asked me for permission before taking her away?” Dustin stood in front of Tyler, blocking his path. He had a frosty expression as he stood unyielding.
“Huh?” The guests were dumbfounded and in shock. They could not believe someone would dare to challenge Tyler This person must’ve had nerves of steel.
Zoey’s eyes widened in surprise. “What’s Dustin doing up front? Doesn’t he value his life?” Even if they disregarded Tyler’s background, the armed guards behind him were terrifying enough.
Zeke sneered. “Hmph, he must have a death wish to challenge General Lionheart!” Tyler commanded the armed guards with an air of dominance. With just a single command, he could
have Dustin shot into oblivion
“Fool! He thinks he can show off in front of Tyler just because he’s friends with Patrick. What a joke.” Gordon looked like he was looking at a corpse. While Patrick held a high social standing, he had no official position. He was absolutely incomparable to Tyler.
“This is spelling trouble.” Adrianna frowned slightly. Even though she admired Dustin’s courage in standing up for the woman he loved, it was too dangerous in this situation.
You dare stop me?” With his hands still behind his back, Tyler sized him up. His chilling gaze fixed on him, like that of a predator locking onto his prey.
“Why not? Natasha has every right to refuse to marry you. I won’t allow you to force her to marry you in public,” Dustin stated calmly.
“You won’t agree?” Tyler raised an eyebrow. “So what? Do you really think you can stop me?”
“You can try. But I strongly advise against it. Otherwise, I’ll beat the shit out of you,” Dustin spat,
word for word.
“What?” The guests erupted in an uproar at his words.
“Damn! Is this kid insane? He’s incredibly daring.”
“He’s too brave for his own good!”
“He’s openly challenging General Lionheart! He must have a death wish.”
The guests broke out into a discussion, with Dustin appearing like an idiot to them. Even the Harmons were pressured into silence at Tyler’s appearance. Where did this insignificant kid get the courage to act so boldly in front of such an influential figure?
“Hmph! What an idiot!” Dylan sneered. He wasn’t a match for Tyler, let alone that loser Dustin
“He has commendable courage. Sadly, he won’t be living for long.” Kate rejoiced in his misfortune. She had always disliked Dustin, especially considering her brother’s death had something to do with him. That was why she desperately wished for a tragedy to befall him.
“Hector, you didn’t plan this, did you? What can an insignificant brat like him accomplish?” Trent was frustrated. Dustin was only making things worse by challenging Tyler.
Hector’s brows were locked in a frown as he remained silent. The time was not right, and he had to keep waiting. Natasha, on the other hand, sat beside him in worry, at a loss for words. In the face of his boastful statement, Tyler let out a chuckle. “Do you know what you just said?”
“No matter what I said, I’ve given you a warning. So stop whatever you’re planning. Don’t make me hit you.” Dustin’s expression was unwavering.
“You’ve got balls.” Tyler nodded. “I admire your bravery. Sadly, you’re not qualified to play the hero in front of me. I’ll give you three seconds. Get lost! Or die!”
The armed guards behind him raised their guns at his words, rows of gun barrels aimed directly at every part of Dustin. They would immediately shoot their target into oblivion upon their general’s orders.
“Hold it!”
“Stop right there!”
