Chapter 578 

Kate snorted. “You sure are jealous of Dylan, even when you are talentless. How petty is that? If you are unhappy about Dylan, tell me, who else is better than him?” 

Kate’s remark caught Natasha off guard. Dylan was indeed the best among other family members in their generation because of his government ranks. 

“What’s the matter? Cat got your tongue? Is it that hard to admit that Dylan’s better than you?” 

Kate sneered at her. 

“Natasha, you dodged a bullet today, all thanks to me! You’d better show some gratitude,” Dylan chimed in, much to Natasha’s dismay. He and Kate seemed to be working together to bring her 

down. 

“All thanks to you? How?” Dustin did not like it when they laughed at Natasha. “Lord Xenos is a viceroy, and you’re just a colonel. You’re nowhere near his level, so why did you think he showed 

up for you?” 

“Are you claiming that he showed up for you?” Dylan scoffed. 

“You guessed right. He came here because of me.” Dustin nodded, much to everyone’s surprise. 

But the surprise soon turned into dismissive laughter. 

“Hahaha! Have you lost your mind? Why would you even say that?” 

“Dustin Rhys, who do you think you are? What do you have to invite the viceroy?” 

“Hmph! You seemed to have forgotten your place after tasting a little bit of power!” 

The members of the Harmon family looked at him disdainfully as though he was a complete fool. How dare a country doctor and a kept man make such an outrageous claim? 

“Dustin, do you really know Lord Xenos?” Natasha was quite dumbstruck. 

“I saved Mrs. Xenos‘ life a few days ago. He owed me a favor,” he confessed. 

“He owed you a favor? Hah! You really flatter yourself! With Lord Xenos‘ rank, he can call on any reputable doctor he wants from the military. Why does he need the help of a country doctor who’s more form than substance?” Dylan sneered at Dustin. 

“Exactly! Dustin, you’re too presumptuous. The audacity to name–drop Lord Xenos so casually! You have no shame at all!” Kate smirked. 

“Believe it or not, that’s the truth.” Dustin dropped another bombshell, “I cured Mrs. Xenos‘ illness 

and saved Sir Paul from death!” 

Upon hearing this statement, the people around him burst into even louder laughter, staring at 

Dustin as if he were a complete clown. 

“Are you seriously telling me that Sir Paul came here because of you?” Dylan snickered. 

“Absolutely.” Dustin nodded matter–of–factly. 

Dylan threw his head back as he laughed. “Oh, Dustin, I never thought you could be so thick- skinned! That was eye–opening!”

“Natasha, I never thought you’d fall for an incompetent man who bluffs,” Kate made a cynical jab, jumping on the opportunity to insult her cousin.
