Chapter 212
“Let me help you look.” Seeing that Irene was taking a long time to choose something, Dustin went to help her. Irene watched as Dustin looked around. On the surface, she seemed unaffected, but anxiety twisted her insides into a knot. She was terrified that Dustin would choose something very expensive, and they would not be able to afford it. Elisa and Jaxon watched from the side. They were just waiting for Dustin and Irene to embarrass themselves. Luckily, Dustin was considerate and did not linger on the clothing that was overly expensive. Dustin took a long time to find something he liked. He did not feel like buying something along this price range. “What are you two doing? You won’t be able to find anything cheap even if you look through the entire boutique. There’s no need to force it if you can’t afford to shop here. What’s the point of going into debt just for your pride?” Elisa said with a smirk. “Enough. There’s no need to keep faking it on my account. It’s

Jaxon Chandler turned around, glanced at Irene, and shook his head. This beautiful woman was with Dustin, who was destined for ruin. If she was with him, she would not need to endure such humiliation. “Dustin, why don’t we just return the dress?” Irene whispered. “Why should we? It’s just around seven hundred thousand dollars.” Dustin smiled. “This is only a fraction of the cost of the Verdigris Emerald.” He wanted to tell Irene that seven hundred thousand dollars was nothing. He had been willing to give her that rare Verdigris Emerald. Why would he feel distressed for seven hundred thousand dollars? But Irene still felt uneasy. The Verdigris Emerald was just a jewel. It did not have the same impact as losing cold hard cash. Seven hundred thousand for a dress seemed overly extravagant to her and lacked real meaning. “Why? Do you not like this dress?” asked Dustin and smiled at her as he looked in the direction where Elisa and Jaxon had disappeared. “Didn’t they say th

Dustin looked calm as he led Irene upstairs while being watched by the service assistant. He was composed, but Irene was not. At this time, Irene’s emotions were in turmoil. She was overwhelmed with shock and excitement. The membership of this clothing store was a symbol of status. Many people wanted to be members here, but they did not have the right qualifications.Irene knew that the descendants of the families in Lannopolis wanted to become a VIP here because it would be something to brag about. It was so hard to get recognized, but how did Dustin achieve that? Why would he own the symbol of status? The Panther Gang was powerful, but its underground status was not recognized by Yara Couture, which cared about its reputation. Even the leader of the Panther Gang could not get a VIP membership here. “How… How are you a VIP here?” Irene asked softly.“I have got lots of memberships,” Dustin said. “I have countless memberships in high-end internet cafes and restaurants.”

They had the qualification to come up to the second floor? That was impossible. “Stop yelling. I’m a VIP here,” Dustin said indifferently. “How… How is this possible?! Only a few people in Lannopolis can be VIPs here. How could you be one? Stop bragging! You must be lying!” Elisa was slightly agitated.She was too stunned. Jaxon could come upstairs because he owned Gold Membership here and only because he was a member of the first family in Lannopolis. But Dustin was just useless trash. How could he be a VIP? “Irene, don’t bother with those who look down on you. Go and pick some clothes for yourself,” Dustin said and ignored Elisa.This offended Elisa so much that she nearly stormed off on the spot. Jaxon’s face darkened. He reevaluated Dustin. He thought that the surviving descendant of the Fox family was different from what Elisa had told him.“Dustin, I don’t think we can afford the clothes on the second floor…” After Irene glanced at the price tag of a dress, her voi

“Rank, huh? Is that how it works?” Dustin looked at the service assistant and asked sternly. “Sir, there is indeed a policy in our store,” the service assistant said. “Many clothes are unique and limited edition in our store, so it is unavoidable that many members end up liking the same piece of clothing. When something like that happens, higher-ranked members are given priority. “Although you saw this dress first, if that gentleman and his companion want it, and if their membership is ranked higher than yours, this dress will belong to them. I must say that I am very sorry. We have to follow the rule.”When Irene heard that, she did not hope for anything anymore.“Did you hear that? Take the dress off now! That belongs to me,” said Elisa and chuckled happily. “Status and privilege determine membership rank, and we’ll always crush you!”Jaxon’s Gold Membership gave her a sense of superiority. Being able to be superior to Dustin and Irene brought her indescribable happiness.“Ir

Her words landed like a blow. Elisa was shocked and stunned, while Jaxon’s eyes widened in disbelief. Irene knew that Dustin’s membership was far from ordinary, but she was still impressed.What did the store assistant mean? In front of Dustin, even a Gold Membership was worth nothing and could be canceled… What kind of membership did he hold to wield such influence? A Supreme Membership? From the looks of it, the whole store existed to serve only him, and he could do whatever he wanted.How amazing was that? After all, a Bronze Membership was a dream of countless rich people in Lannopolis, while no one in the West family was qualified to get one. Jaxon’s Gold Membership was considered the highest-ranked membership in Lannopolis. Many people were envious of him. Yet, it was dismissed as insignificant in front of Dustin! When did Gold Membership become so trivial? It was shocking. What rank of membership could warrant such an unbelievable treatment? They had ne

“My Liege, we found it.” After they returned from the shopping mall, Dustin received a report from the Hell Guards. “We found out the origin of the Sorensen family. The family traces back to Apollo Sorensen, the second-strongest martial artist in the world thirty years ago. The mark in the narrow pathway of the Sorensen family villa was made by Apollo. “Rumor has it that anyone who can pass the pathway can inherit Apollo’s martial arts.”When Dustin heard that, he looked interested. When he stepped into the pathway of the Sorensen family villa, he instantly knew that the person who had left the mark behind was a top elite in the martial world.Thirty years ago, the second strongest in the martial world was Apollo.“Who was the strongest thirty years ago?” Dustin asked. He had learned from Lucas, the Wyatt family patriarch. Then, he secretly built Hell Hall and overruled the Shadow Dynasty. He dominated the underground world. All these years, to protect the Wyatt family,
Chapter 219
When Dustin arrived outside the Sorensen family villa, he found that it was livelier than before. The door of the Sorensen family villa was closed, while a crowd gathered outside. “It looks like the information has been leaked,” Dustin said indifferently. Originally, only a handful of people knew about the secret of the Sorensen family. Most of the martial artists who failed to pass the challenge would keep their mouths shut about it because they did not want others to get the martial arts technique.It looked like someone had spread the news. Among the crowd, Dustin saw Victor. Some other sovereign grade fighters also appeared. They were not from Lannopolis. Dustin’s gaze met theirs. Timothy had come all the way here again even though he was injured. He had come with someone who looked after him. The person beside him was a real sovereign grade fighter. “Uncle Mark, that person is the surviving descendant of the Fox family.” Timothy stared at Dustin as he whispered
