Hearing Dustin Hughes’ voice, Sumr Shawcross took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the anger in her heart, then coldly asked a question.
"Why are you here?"
"You haven’t replied to my emails. I was worried sothing happened to you, so I couldn’t resist coming to see you." Dustin looked at Sumr with a concerned expression.
Sumr didn’t speak, just looked at Dustin’s hypocritical expression, and felt sick to her stomach.
She must have been out of her mind before, to have been so deceived by such hypocritical words and expressions.
Thinking back on how he treated her before, Sumr couldn’t help but clench her teeth.
At fifteen, Sumr was still the Shawcross Family heiress. Once after school, because her driver was delayed and couldn’t pick her up, a few local thugs surrounded her near the school, attempting to assault her.
At only fifteen years old, she was terrified. Just as she was trembling in fear, a boy appeared.
And that person was the eighteen-year-old Dustin Hughes.
Dustin rescued her, sparing her from a tragedy, but because of him, her life in her past life also fell into a deeper tragedy.
Sumr always regarded him as her savior, obeying him in everything, believing he was genuinely good to her.
It wasn’t until just before her death that she realized this man, under the guise of helping her and doing what’s best for her, had been using her all along, causing her family to be destroyed... Even his initial rescue was all pre-arranged.
Seeing Sumr not speaking, Dustin’s expression faltered for a mont, then he asked her with a tense expression.
"Sumr, are you still angry, mad that I didn’t take you away back then?"
Listening to his words, Sumr recalled that before she was to marry Noah Drexler, she had asked Dustin for help, to take her away, but he refused.
"No, I should thank you!" Sumr shook her head.
Now she even wants to thank him. If he hadn’t refused to take her away back then, how could she be by Noah Drexler’s side now?
Hearing Sumr say this, Dustin thought she was just speaking in anger and continued to justify himself.
"I wanted to take you away, but you know Noah Drexler’s power. No matter where I sent you, he would find you! Now, only by staying by Noah Drexler’s side do you have a chance for revenge. Only when he dies will you truly be free!"
"But don’t worry, I will do everything I can to help you get revenge!" Dustin vowed.
Looking at his seemingly kind deanor, Sumr felt nothing but disgust, wishing she could throw the CD in her hand at his face!
"Did he bully you?" Seeing her expression wasn’t right, Dustin showed a nervous look and asked her with concern.
"What do you want to do?" Sumr took a deep breath and calmly asked him.
Even though she already knew, he wanted her to help him steal docunts from Noah Drexler.
"This ti... the new project of TR Group in Stellaria, I need you to get their confidential information." Dustin paused, then said directly.
After hearing his words, Sumr laughed, then readily agreed, "No problem."
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Dustin’s face. He suddenly extended his hand, holding the hand with the CD, and promised her solemnly.
