Chapter 1081: Confrontation with Max
“Thank you for your offer, Miss Dahlia, but I’ll pass,” Dustin said, shaking his head, declining to take the business
card.
“Hmm?”
Dahlia raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. “Are you sure you don’t want to consider it?”
It was rare for someone to reject her, and especially so decisively, without any hesitation.
“No, I’ve decided. Selling insurance suits me just fine, and I’m not used to working in a big company,” Dustin politely
declined again.
“Hey! Do you know how many people would give anything for an opportunity like this, just to get into my sister
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDahlia’s company? This is your chance, and you’re rejecting it so casually!” Victoria arrogantly remarked.
As the adopted daughter of Lord Montgomery, even the aristocrats in Stonia would show her respect. An insurance
salesman like Dustin had no right to refuse her.
“Opportunity knocks only once, and you’ve missed your chance for a meteoric rise,” Chase sneered, looking at him
as if he were an idiot.
When the goddess herself extends an invitation, and you turn it down, it’s simply foolish.
“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. I’m hungry. Let’s go back and have something to eat,” Shiela
intervened, trying to change the subject.
Dustin wasn’t swayed by her beauty, and she was relieved.
Although she was very pretty, in the presence of someone like Dahlia, she had no advantage at all and would even
be overshadowed.
She was quite satisfied with the current outcome.
After leaving the racetrack, the group returned to the Murray residence. However, as soon as they entered the
main gate, a middle-aged man blocked their way.
This man was tall and imposing, and just standing there, he exuded a strong aura.
He was Max Murray, the current head of the Murray family.
“Uncle?” Shiela’s smile froze when she saw the man.
She had always been somewhat afraid of this stern uncle of hers.
“Where were you all just now?” Max asked sternly, his hands behind his back.
“We went to the racetrack for a while. Why?” Shiela replied.

“That was just an accident. It had nothing to do with us,” Shiela quickly explained.
“An accident?”
Max snorted, “Black Dragon is well-trained. How could it suddenly turn on its master? I suspect you had a hand in
this!”
“Uncle, we really didn’t do anything. It was Morgan’s own issue,” Shiela tried to clarify.
“Shut up!”
Max glared at her and said, “As the head of the family, I say you’re guilty, so you are! You dared to harm my
daughter in secret? You’re truly heinous!”
“Guards! Arrest all of them for me!”
“Anyone who dares to resist will be shot on the spot!”
With his command, a large number of armed soldiers rushed out from both sides and quickly surrounded the
group.
The atmosphere immediately became tense.
