Chapter 65
Dustin’s words took everyone by surprise. No one had expected him to be so audacious as to disregard them.
“You brat! Are you even hearing yourself?” Duane’s jaws were tightly clenched and his expression was slightly distorted from the anguish. He was a person of prestige in South City, much less a small place like Swinton. And now, this little scoundrel dared speak to him like that?
How impudent!
“I know very well what I’m saying. You, however, do not seem to fathom the severity of the situation at hand. I
am the only one who can help with your condition,” Dustin spelled out coldly.
“You rascal! Don’t go around thinking that you’re some miracle worker just because you’ve got some medical
tricks up your sleeves! You better know what’s best for you before I lose my temper!” Duane bellowed.
“That’s right! I’ll break your face if you don’t cure my boss!” Duane’s bodyguard threatened.
“You’ll break my face? I’d like to see you try.” Dustin sneered.
“I guess this one wouldn’t be afraid until death stares him in the face!” The bodyguard was angered. He took a
step forward and threw a punch at Dustin’s face. His fist was on the target, and it came on fast. It was evident
that he was a skilled fighter.
Before the punch made contact with his face, Dustin grunted and gave the bodyguard such a strong slap that
it sent him sprawling backward.
The bodyguard did not even have the chance to make a sound as he passed out on the spot, face disfigured.
Duane’s face fell. It never occurred to him that Dustin was proficient in martial arts too.
“What’s the matter?” Natasha came strolling in at her own pace, looking haughty and carrying an air of
authority. Even without knowing what was going on, she instinctively stood by Dustin.
“Natasha! This insolent rascal not only refused to heal me, he even beat my man up! Tell me, how do you think. this should be handled?” Duane asked with hostility.
“Uncle Duane, I believe Dustin would not have attacked your man without being provoked. That being the case, your man brought it upon himself!” Natasha responded firmly.
Duane’s brows furrowed. “So, you’re adamant about taking his side?”
“Of course!” Natasha lifted her chin. “Dustin is my friend. If you have any problem with him, you may come to
me.”
“Hmph! You’re turning against me for an outsider? Have you considered how you’re going to tell your parents about this?” Duane roared.
“That’s not something you should worry about, Uncle Duane. I’ll deal with them myself.“Natasha then continued stonily, “But you, Uncle Duane, look like you’re in serious pain. I think you’d better seek help. Don’t
wait till it gets any worse.”
“You! Very well! Let’s go!” After giving them a spiteful glare, Duane left in a huff. Natasha’s reaction was not

what he expected. But considering her status, he had no intention of crossing her, so he had no choice but to
walk away.
“Will you be in any sort of trouble for helping me out?” Dustin asked. Though he was not intimidated by Duane. he was still grateful to Natasha.
“How could this be?” Duane grabbed at his chest, pale–faced with sweat running down his face. The worst part was that the pain was intensifying as time went on. It was as though he would never see the end of it. He had been practicing martial arts for many, many years, and he believed himself to be tough and resilient. But the excruciating pain he was going through was simply intolerable. He thought that he might lose his mind if it carried on any longer.
“Sir, even the hospitals can’t help. What do we do now?” Seeing Duane in so much pain, his bodyguards were
at a loss.
“Could it be possible that the rascal is the only one who can help me?” Recalling Dustin’s words, Duane gritted his teeth. Ultimately, he had no choice but to give in. “Head to Peaceful Medical Centre. Get that rascal
to help.”

Duane’s men dared not question his decision. They immediately sent him back to Peaceful Medical Centre. This time around, they lost all the contempt and arrogance they had before.
“Well, if it isn’t Uncle Duane? What’s got you coming back so soon?” Natasha, who had been biding her time, rose to greet him with a smile.
“Natasha, I acted rashly and said some rubbish earlier on. Please don’t take it to heart. Can you please get
Dustin to help me?” Duane tried to put on a smile.
“Uncle Duane, there’s no use telling me that. It’d be better for you to say it to Dustin.” Natasha gestured at Dustin behind her. He was reading leisurely, taking no heed of the few men who had just entered.
Duane cleared his throat before starting, “Hey, Rhys, I’m really sorry. I was in such agony that I was rash with my words and offended you. Please do not mind me. I’m really sorry, I apologize.”
Duane chose to yield to him. Seeing that Dustin was ignoring him, he offered, “Hey, if you help me, you can have your pick out of my collection of treasured herbs.”
Dustin finally lifted his head when he heard that.
