Natasha was seething with rage. She knew how sincere Dustin’s feelings were for Dahlia. It even made


    her envious.


    But Dahlia not only took it for granted, she also resorted to violence. How could she be so foolish?


    Natasha had reached her limit today. Dahlia could raise her hand against anyone but her man. “Forget


    it, Natasha. Let’s go. I have nothing else to say,” Dustin said impassively.


    “Hmph! Reflect on your actions!” Natasha sneered and got in the car before speeding away.


    “How did ite to this? How?” Dahlia muttered to herself as she watched the tail lights disappear.


    She was lost and disoriented.


    Although she acted impulsively earlier, she was just preventing Dustin from making another big


    mistake. Why did nobody understand her? What exactly did she do wrong?


    “Dahlia, what are you doing out here? It’s cold. Let’s go back in.” Julie had rushed out after her. She


    wrapped a coat around her to keep her warm.


    “Julie, do you think I was wrong?” Dahlia asked, still looking lost.


    “Of course not! It’s all Dustin’s fault!” Julie said with righteous indignation, “Gavin clearly saved him.


    He’s not only ungrateful, but he even resorted to violence. He doesn’t have a heart!” “Dustin isn’t


    usually like that. Why was he so different today?” Dahlia couldn’t understand. “Why else? He was


    jealous, of course!” Julie exined seriously, “Gavines from a wealthy family in Oakvale. He has


    power and authority. Plus, he’s good-looking. Dustin clearly envies him and feels hatred for him. Not to


    mention he saw you dancing with him. He must have been furious. That’s why he hit him.”


    Dahlia fell silent after hearing Julie’s exnation. She didn’t know who to trust anymore. Her mind was


    a mess, and her heart felt empty. It was as if she lost something precious.


    Even though she hated to admit it, she had inadvertently pushed Dustin toward Natasha. While she


    and Dustin grew more distant in the process.


    Meanwhile, in the car, Natasha couldn’t contain her curiosity any longer. “What happened between you


    and Dahlia? Why did she hit you?”


    “It’s almostical to discuss.” Dustin chuckled and briefly exined the situation to Natasha. As


    Natasha listened, her expression turned cold. She cried out in fury, “She’s too much! How can she hit


    you because of someone she just met? What a wench!”


    She had always thought of Dahlia as a candid person. It turned out that she was just foolish. How could


    she not see Dustin’s true character after all this time? She’d rather believe a stranger than him.


    To Natasha, Dahlia was the most foolish woman ever.

    “Forget it. It’s all in the past now. Let’s not bring it up anymore.” Dustin shook his head.


    Their conflict started from Dahlia’sck of trust and Gavin’s scheming. Gavin portrayed himself as the


    hero, saving the damsel in distress. He offered his timely help and appeared righteous. It made his act


    quite convincing.


    But if Dahlia had fully trusted Dustin, this situation wouldn’t have happened either. In the end, a rift still


    existed between them.


    “Does it still hurt?” Natasha asked tenderly.
