Chapter 1073

Jayden raised an eyebrow, having no idea what was happening. But he could see that Elena disliked Dustin.

“Since when did the Murray family have such low standards? How could someone like him enter our residence?” Hearing that,Sheila quickly explained, “Jayden, Dustin is my friend.”

“Friend?” Jayden sized Dustin up. “Sheila, you must know that with your status and identity, not everyone can be your friend.”Aninsurance agent was part of the lower class. To Jayden, someone like Dustin was not even fit to shine his shoes.novelbin

“It's hard to say whether I’m qualified to be her friend. But | know that although you’re Sheila’s cousin, you're clearly not a kindperson,” Dustin retorted. Roxanne glared at Dustin, scolding, How bold of you to say that! Who do you think you are?“How couldyou accuse my brother? Bastards like you deserve to be beaten up!” As she spoke, she lifted her whip and was about to strikeDustin.But Jayden raised his hand to stop her. Then he asked coldly, “You're Dustin, right? | don’t think I've offended you, so whyare you accusing me??Accusing you?” Dustin snorted. “Don’t you know what you just did? You pretended to care about Sheila,but you secretly schemed against her. “And because of what you did, Sheila fell off her horse. Did you think no one wouldnotice?”?W-what nonsense are you talking about?” Jayden’s eyes widen in panic. He could feel his heart racing. But when herealized he lost his composure, he forced himself to calm down so no one would notice. In that split second, his true characterwas revealed. He really was a cunning person.“You know if I’m saying nonsense or not. Just for a horse, you harmed yourcousin. Are you even human?” Dustin questioned coldly.At that point, Jayden lost his cool and shouted, “How outrageous! Don’tblame me for beating you up for all the bullshit you’re saying!”“You bastard! I’m ordering you to apologize to my brother now!Otherwise, you're going to pay for this! Roxanne threatened fiercely. Elena tried to make matters worse, too..“Mr. Murray! If |were you, I’d cut off his tongue and feed it to the dogs to release my anger!” Meanwhile, Dahlia observed from the side withindifference. She did not say a word the entire time.“Dustin, is there a misunderstanding? Jayden has always been very kind tome. How could he possibly harm me?” Sheila was skeptical.Ever since they were kids, Jayden had always been gentlemanlyand elegant. Whenever Sheila made a mistake, he would always protect her. Sometimes, Jayden would even take the blame forher.Although Jayden was her cousin, Sheila felt he was her biological brother. Because of this, Roxanne would often feel jealousand compete with her over everything.“Sheila, | saw it with my own eyes. He’s the reason behind why you fell. Otherwise, youwouldn't have lost,” Dustin declared. Roxanne was livid. “Nonsense! It was a mistake on her end! What does this have to do withmy brother??Hey, insurance agent, | think you’re just stirring trouble. We were all standing next to Mr. Murray earlier. “If he haddone anything suspicious, do you think none of us would have noticed?” Elena remarked, looking at Dustin with disdain.“That’sright! Mr. Murray is an honest and straightforward person. He’d never do such a despicable thing!” “You better not make falseaccusations!Everyone started scolding Dustin. Even Sheila’s friends cast disapproving glances at Dustin. They could not believehe would do such a shameless thing to get attention. Everyone thought Dustin was acting like a madman, attacking anyone ashe liked.“Dustin, you must be mistaken, right? | believe Jayden isn’t that kind of person, “Sheila said while shaking her head.“You can never judge a book by its cover. You can never know what people are planning,” Dustin reminded her.Jayden retorted,“Dustin, you claimed I’ve sabotaged her. Do you have any evidence?” “That's right! Without any proof, you’re just makingbaseless claims! Show us the evidence if you can!” Roxanne shouted as she pointed her whip at Dustin.“If you don’t haveevidence, then you're spouting nonsense! I'll cut off your tongue to teach you a lesson!“You want evidence? Fine.” With thatsaid, Dustin walked toward Gale. He examined the horse and asked, ” Before the race started, Jayden touched Gale’s head.Everyone remembers that, right?”“So what if we remember?” Roxanne snapped. But Dustin did not respond. He lightly tracedGale’s head with his fingers. When he touched a slight bump, Dustin pulled hard.A black steel needle stained with blood waspulled out from Gale. Dustin held the needle up for everyone to see. “There! That's the evidence all of you wanted!”
