Chapter 459

“Everybody. I know that all of you hate me, but please let me say a few words.” Dustin looked around and said

loudly, “As long as you let me finish speaking, you can kill me ordo anything you please. I will not resist!”

“Hmmph! Are you still trying to make excuses till the very end?” Jacob demanded with a glare.

“I must say this regardless of whether you’ll believe me, but Quentin deserved to die. That’s because he is the real

culprit who poisoned you!” Dustin dropped a bombshell.

“Bullshit!” Jacob snorted coldly. “Quentin is a Harmon. How could he poison members of his own family? I think

you’re just framing him!”

“That’s right! If you’re going to make up a story, then at least make it believable. Who would believe you saying

Quentin was the culprit?” Everyone scoffed and looked at Dustin with hostile gazes. If it wasn’t because Natasha

was shielding him, they would have attacked him long ago.

“You say that Quentin is the culprit, but do you have evidence?” Hector, who had been silent till then, finally spoke

up. He didn’t trust anyone, only the facts of the case.

“First off, I hold no grudges against the Harmon family, so I have no reason to poison you guys,” Dustin explained

slowly. “Hence, all of you should be aware that the real culprit behind the scenes is the Dark Lord. However, not

only did Quentin not blame the Dark Lord after being cured, but he kept suspecting me. He even used all sorts of

reasons and excuses to condemn me and mislead everybody to make me the scapegoat. He deserves to pay with

his life! That’s why I have reason to suspect that Quentin works for the Dark Lord! And because I saved everyone

from the poison, he saw me as a pain in the ass that should be eliminated as soon as possible!”

Once he finished explaining, everybody became a lot more quiet. Some people were already mulling it over to

determine if it was the truth. Everybody had their own version of a story, but after hearing Dustin out, they found it

indeed a little strange.

“Humph! What a good talker!” Jacob’s expression was still icy. “He’s already dead anyway, so you can say whatever

you want, can’t you?”

“Exactly! Do you think you can walk free by making up a story? Let me tell you that won’t be the case!” The

members of the Harmon family were still treating Dustin with animosity, not trusting him at all.

“Words are useless. You must show us evidence!” Hector shouted.

“You want evidence, huh? Sure!” Dustin walked into the corner and picked up the incense burner that had been

used to release the poisonous fumes. He explained, “The incense inside has a unique scent. It’s very long- lasting,

and when it mixes with the poison, it makes it very hard to notice.”

“So what?” Jacob said impatiently.

“Take a sniff. Isn’t there an odd scent on Quentin? It smells almost exactly the same as the incense,” Dustin. said.

“Huh?” Jacob smelled the incense, then walked over to Quentin’s body and took a hard sniff. His expression

changed instantly. Just like Dustin had said, the smell on Quentin was exactly the same as the incense in the

1/2

burner. “They smell the same!”

To determine the truth, many people from the crowd came forward to take a sniff and experienced a shocking

revelation. “Humph! So what if they smell the same? What does it prove? It could merely be a coincidence!” Jacob

said coldly.

“Of course, the smell cannot prove anything. Actually, what raised my suspicion was not the smell, but Quentin’s

body.” After a pause, Dustin dropped another bombshell. “You might not believe me when I say this, but Quentin

already died long ago. His body was only being controlled using witchcraft!”

The crowd flew into an uproar.
