Chapter 1081
“Thank you, Ms. Nicholson, but that won't be necessary.” Dustin shook his head without taking the name card. “What?” Dahliaraised her eyebrow, surprised.
“Are you sure you don’t want to think about it?” There were only a few people who would reject her offer. Dustin not only rejectedit altogether, he didn’t even hesitate.
“No, thank you. Being an insurance agent is pretty good. | won't adapt to a corporate lifestyle.” Dustin declined again.
“Hey! Do you know how many people are dying to get into Ms. Nicholson’s company? She’s giving you a chance, don’t beungrateful!” Elena said arrogantly.
As Sir Mosey’s goddaughter, even the aristocrats in Oakvale had to show Dahlia respect. How dare an insurance agent declineher offer? He was disrespectful!
“Why don’t you take the offer instead? | don’t need it.” Dustin glanced at her coldly. “You-!” Elena was about to retort when Dahliaraised her hand to stop her.
“Forget about it. Since he refused, | won't force him. I'll be off first.” Dahlia left after saying that. She wasn’t the kind of personwho took the initiative to speak up, and compromising was simply out of the question. In reality, she had only extended the offerout of curiosity.
“Hmph! You're as stubborn as a mule! You'll regret it sooner or later!” Elena glared at Dustin before leaving with Dahlia.
“You actually refused a benefactor willing to be your mentor? | can’t tell if you’re self-aware or just an idiot,” Vivian saidsarcastically.
“Great opportunities don’t come by often. You’ve missed out on a chance of becoming successful.” Evan sneered, looking atDustin like he was a fool.
Dahlia had personally extended an invitation. While others could never receive that kind of treatment even if they begged, thisbrat declined repeatedly. What a fool!
“Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. I’m getting hungry. Let’s go back and get some food.” Sheila mediated the situation.
She was happy that Dustin didn’t fall for a beautiful woman. Although she was beautiful too, she was incomparable to anexquisite beauty like Dahlia. That was why she was satisfied with the outcome.
After leaving the horse ranch, they went back to the Murray residence. However, as soon as they walked through the doors, amiddle-aged man blocked their path.
The man had a muscular physique and a commanding presence. He exuded an oppressive aura just by standing there. Thisman was the current head of the Murrays Edgar Murray!
“Uncle Edgar?” Sheila’s smile faltered. Growing up, she had always felt intimidated by her uncle who rarely smiled or spoke.
“Where did all of you go earlier?” Edgar spoke sternly with his hands behind his back. “We went to the horse ranch, why?” Sheilaresponded.
“So you had something to do with Roxanne getting hurt?” Edgar questioned. “That was an accident. It had nothing to do with us.”Sheila shook her head.
“An accident?” Edgar scoffed. “Midnight Shadow is well-trained. Why would it hurt its owner? You must have done something!”
“We really didn’t, Uncle Edgar. Roxanne did it to herself,” Sheila tried to explain.
“Shut up!”Edgar glared at her and roared, “I’m the head of this family, and | say you did it! That's final!
“How dare you harm my daughter? You have committed a grave offense! “Apprehend all of them! Anyone who resists will be shotdead on the spot!”novelbin
