Chapter 391
Was the bodyguard made of steel? Even a knife could not penetrate his skin!
“Hmph! Cougar is a martial artist who’s at the height of internal energy cultivation. Do you seriously
think you can hurt him with that toy knife of yours?” Dakota scoffed in disdain. Gloria had called in the
two martial arts experts who worked for her to make up for her loss of dignity earlier. No matter how
powerful Dustin was, he was destined to be defeated.
“Get lost!” With a slap, Cougar subdued Florence. Gloria strutted up arrogantly and rested her walking
stick on Florence’s face, saying, “I’m giving you a chance to get Dahlia and Dustin to come home. If
you don’t, I’ll break the legs of your son!”
“Have mercy on me! I’ll make the call right now!” Florence frantically scrambled for her phone and
called Dahlia, specifically reminding her daughter to bring Dustin home as well. However, she kept the

greater trouble.
“Madam Gloria, they’ll be here in no time. Please wait.” Florence was all smiles.
“I’ll allow 15 minutes, tops. With each minute that passes after that, I’ll crush one finger of your son!”
Gloria threatened.
“What?” Florence was stunned. If Dahlia and Dustin were late for more than ten minutes, James would
lose all fingers on both hands!
James felt aggrieved and helpless, for he didn’t ask to be part of this circus.
During the quiet wait, the door to the villa was busted open once more. A group of men marched in as
though they were ready to kill.
“Sir Hummer?” Florence and James were shocked at the man in the lead. Edwin’s unannounced
presence at midnight was quite unexpected.
“Who are you?” Gloria confronted the new visitors with a frosty tone.
“I’m here for these two.” Edwin pointed at Florence and James. “The rest of you better get out right
now!”
“Oh, it looks like Florence has asked someone to help her out!” Gloria scanned the men with disdain.
“What can a few men do? Tarragon and Cougar will easily annihilate you.”
“That’s right! You better beg for forgiveness if you don’t want trouble!” Dakota yelled at Edwin’s men,
thinking that the few men were no match for Nicholson Family’s elite fighters.
“I shall repeat myself once more. Those who are unrelated to them–get lost right now!” Edwin warned
them.
However, Gloria merely announced, “He needs to be put in his place! Someone beat him up!” “Yes,
Madam!” The elderly servants chuckled menacingly and charged at Edwin. He was emotionless when
he pulled a pistol with a silencer from his back and pointed it at the elderly

“Wait a minute! We can talk–” The elderly servants looked alarmed and attempted to talk to him,
but what followed were muffled gunshots. The elderly servants fell to the floor, each with a gunshot
wound in their foreheads. None were breathing.
Edwin blew on the pistol and asked coldly, “Who is next?”
The others stared at the scene with terror. No one expected Edwin to be as ruthless as to gun down
lives without hesitation. His psychopathic behavior sent shivers down their backs.
“D–do you know who I am? How dare you kill my people? You’re reckless!” Gloria gathered herself and
grew furious. The elderly servants were her confidantes, and she was extremely angry to see them
murdered.
“I’m uninterested in the names of the dead,” he said coolly, shooting Gloria.
