Chapter 900
Dustin stared at Nikki in disbelief from across the table. He couldn’t believe that she had been the person who drugged them.
“Why is it you?” Cornelius’ widened eyes were full of dismay, confusion, and
anger.
He never imagined that the traitor would be Nikki, whom Dustin had treated so well.
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry.” Nikki looked away guiltily and kept her head down.
“Why?” Dustin could only ask.
Because of Nelson, Dustin treated Nikki like his sister and tried to do everything in her best. interest. He even reigned in his temper in front of Jade Maiden Sisterhood just to free her, so he never imagined that she would betray him in return.
“Jade Maiden Sisterhood is my home, and they are my family. I-I didn’t have a choice. I’m sorry…” Nikki apologized as she repeatedly shook her head.
She felt guilty toward Dustin but couldn’t go against Edith and the Jade Maiden Sisterhood’s wishes.
“I just don’t get it. Why are you still so determined to stay when they mistreated you? Just, why?” Dustin’s brows were furrowed.
He couldn’t understand why Nikki would throw her pride away and serve people who treated her like trash.
“I…” Nikki didn’t know what to say, so she kept her head down and remained silent.
“What’s the point of talking about that now?” Edith sneered.
“Nikki is my disciple, and she belongs to Jade Maiden Sisterhood. Naturally, she should be helping me.
“You only have yourself to blame for being so naive.”
“That’s right. Serves you right for trusting women so readily!” Edith’s disciples jeered.
“Yeah, you’re right. I was an idiot for believing a person I just met.” Dustin smirked self- mockingly.
Although Nelson had been loyal, it didn’t mean that Nikki would be the same.
