Thrown off by the sudden slap, Julian held his burning cheek with his hand in disbelief. No one had ever dared to hit him all his life, so it took some time for the fact to settle in with him.

Florence and the rest of them exchanged looks between themselves and stared with bewilderment. Dustin was too bold to slap the eldest legitimate grandson of the Nicholson family! “You… How dare you slap me?” When Julian finally came to his senses, his expression was dark, and his gaze looked like he could murder them at any moment.

“Yes, I’ve slapped you. So what? You speak so arrogantly. Did you think you didn’t deserve that?” Dustin countered calmly.

“You impudent bastard! Get him!” Julian bellowed.

“Yes, sir!” The bodyguards pulled out their weapons and charged toward Dustin.

But before they even managed to lay a finger on him, Dustin kicked each of them and sent them all sprawling to the ground. Just like that, the fight was over.

Julian’s face fell as he stumbled backward. They were the most well-trained bodyguards the Nicholson family had’ And Dustin managed to wipe them all out single-handedly? It was clear that he was a skilled martial artist.

“Now, can we speak like civilized adults?” Dustin asked.

“How dare you, Rhys? Do you know what you’ve done? You’re blatantly challenging the Nicholson family!” Julian roared as he glared at him.

“Cut the crap. If you wish to strike a deal, talk properly. If you do not wish to do so, I’ll just dispose of the medicine as I see fit.” Dustin had had enough of Julian’s big talk.

“You-” Julian gritted his teeth. But in the end, he swallowed his anger and asked, “What on earth do you want?”

“I told you, I have three conditions. If you agree to my conditions, I’ll give you the medicine,” Dustin stated calmly.

“What are your conditions?” Julian asked with annoyance.

“First, I want you to apologize to Dahlia sincerely, and I want you to mean every word. Dustin held up one finger.

“Apologize? Why should I?” Julian’s pride would not allow him to do so. He was the first legitimate grandson of the Nicholson family, the one who should have been the rightful heir. It was embarrassing for him to apologize to some illegitimately born brat of the family.

“Because I have this.” Dustin raised the purple bottle in his hand. “Now, will you do it?”

Julian faltered for a moment, but his eyes still burned with rage. But for his grandmother’s sake, he complied and went up to Dahlia with his head hung low. “I’m sorry. I apologize for my previous actions.”

Dahlia, Julie, and Florence were all astonished by Julian’s actions. They had never imagined that Dustin would be able to deliver what he had said earlier on. He had indeed succeeded in getting

Julian to apologize without a fuss.

“Are you happy now?” Julian straightened up and asked frostily, “What’s the second condition?”

“It’s simple. Let Dahlia return to her original position.” Dustin raised a second finger.

“Okay. I can promise you that.” After a few seconds of contemplation, Julian nodded.

“This is great!” Julia cheered happily. “Dahlia, we don’t need to leave anymore! You’re still the chairman of the company!”

“This kid is pretty impressive! But there goes my plot of land worth two billion.” Florence shook her head disappointedly.

However, Dahlia wasn’t too surprised. Instead, she fell deep into thought.
