“What?” The man was in a state of confusion after being pped. He held his cheek, looking lost. The
other
men exchanged looks of shock. No one had expected that outburst from Nelson, who one second ago
was
screaming about shing the visitors. And the next second, Nelson appeared frightened, as though he
saw
ghosts. What was going on?
“What are you doing there? Hurry up and get me the check!” Nelson gave the frozen man a nervous
kick.
“Okay…” The man hurriedly stumbled his way back to the office. He had no clue about the situation,
but one thing was for sure–Lord Horst was fearful.
During the wait, Nelson went up to Dustin and squeezed an apologetic smile. “Sir Rhys, when did you
arrive? You should have informed me earlier, so I could send someone to pick you up.”
“Sir Rhys?” Dahlia and Julie were stunned by Nelson’s obsequious behavior. They looked at each other
in disbelief. Why would the cruel Lord Horst of the me Dragon Gang act in such a humble manner
after meeting Dustin?
“Nelson Horst, it’s only fair that you pay off the debts of the me Dragon Gang. Understood?” Dustin
scolded Nelson. Thetter nodded fervently as he wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Right, Sir Rhys,
you’re right. I was acting without thinking just now. I promise I won’t do that again.”
“That’d better be the case. By the way, you were a hooligan just now. You should apologize to the
debtor.”

Dustin warned him.
“Chairman Nicholson, I’m very sorry. I was rude to you just now, and I can only hope that you show me
grace and forgive me this time.” Nelson stered a smile on his face as he continuously bowed and
apologized. However, his behavior came unexpectedly for Dahlia. She had mentally prepared herself to
fight a gangster, but never had she expected the fierce–looking Lord Horst to turn into a tame animal
this soon.
She wasn’t the only one who received a great shock. To be honest, Julie was at a loss for words as
well. She
questioned if Nelson Horst was still the same man as the notorious and formidable Lord Horst she
knew.
“Lord Horst, I’m only here to collect the debts. Please forgive me if I offended you in any way.” Dahlia
politely
responded to him.
“Don’t say that! It’s all my fault for owing you the payments in the first ce.” Nelson was rather
surprised and moved by her manners. Anyone could tell that Dustin and Dahlia shared an unusual
rtionship. Nelson revered and feared his new leader at the same time.
“Lord Horst, the money’s here.” The man returned in a hurry, carrying a check in his hand. Nelson
wiped the sweat off his forehead and carefully handed Dahlia the check.
He said with much respect, “Chairman Nicholson, this is the amount I owed you. Please take a look.”
“80 million?” When she checked the figures, she was slightly surprised at the extra money. “Lord Horst,
did you identally pay me more?”
“No, no, I didn’t. I’ve owed you the money for a while now. Just see it as interest payments.” Nelson
smiled at her.
Dahlia was speechless; this was just perplexing and troubling. She was grateful and lucky enough to
have
recovered the 70 million in debt, but now, she received 10 million more.
“Dahlia, since it’s for the interest payment, you should ept it,” Dustin chimed in.
“That’s right. Chairman Nicholson, please ept the check, so I can sleep well tonight.” Nelson had at
pleading look on his face.
“Well, okay then. Thank you, Lord Horst, for your generosity and help.” No longer insisting, Dahlia
pocketed the check. She could tell that Dustin was the sole reason behind Nelson’s humble attitude,
and she couldn’t help but wonder if Dustin was telling the truth earlier today.
“Nelson Horst, keep in mind what you said today.” After warning Nelson once again, Dustin left with
Dahlia
and Julie.
