Chapter 287
Dustin never expected to run into Dahlia there. Worse, she was accompanied by another man, and it seemed like those two were on a date.
It irked him for some reason. He had just been captured by the military, his life in danger, but here Dahlia was, carefree and relaxed, as she went on a date with another man. It was clear that Dahlia didn’t give a damn about him, and it made him feel like a fool.
“Do you know that lady?” Adam quickly caught onto the change in mood and asked.
“Yeah. She’s my ex–wife.” Dustin answered bluntly.

“Why can’t I be here?” Dustin asked coldly.
“When did you get free? Why didn’t you tell me? Dahlia dashed toward him and asked joyfully.

“Boyfriend?” Dahlia looked at the man standing next to her and quickly explained. “You’re getting it wrong. Dustin. We’re just friends.”
“Is this the friend you were talking about, Dahlia? He’s fortunate to have someone like you helping him.” Luis suddenly spoke. Although the man was wearing a smile, the look he was giving Dustin was full of contempt.
“I don’t know who Mr. Langford is, nor do I care. He has nothing to do with me getting free anyway.” Dustin responded bluntly.

“I have no idea what you did, but don’t think too highly of yourself. I don’t need your help.” Dustin retorted coolly.
