An Understated Dominance Chapter 273
“I don’t need it.” Dustin said, rejecting Dakota outright.
“You don’t need it?” When Dakota heard his answer, she was stunned. She never thought that even at this moment of life and death, Dustin would still dare to reject her. Did he really not want to live anymore?
“Dustin, don’t make decisions based on your emotions!” Dahlia tugged on his sleeve, trying to talk some sense into him. “I don’t care what crime you committed, but your life is important. The Nicholson family has connections in the military: only she can save you now!” “She can’t save me, and I don’t need her saving.” Dustin shook his head. Judging from the license plates and flags, this troop was from the Balerno Military. The people in Glanstead couldn’t do anything. Not to mention, Edwin had to pull strings to send this huge troop after him. He wouldn’t let Dustin get away that easily.
“Hmph! You’re already on death’s door, yet you’re still so stubborn!” Dakota jutted her chin out derisively. “It seems like you still haven’t grasped the severity of the problem. I dare guarantee that without the help of the Nicholsons, you’ll be rotting in there for life!” “Dustin, I’m begging you, alright? Agree to her terms!” Dahlia urged anxiously.
An average citizen couldn’t fight an officer. The high–ranking officers in the military could easily squash a civilian. With just one word, they could have them buried six feet under.
“You don’t have to worry about me. I’m just going in to have a cup of tea. I believe I’ll be out in no time, so you should just go home.” Dustin said with a small smile.
The military had come all the way here, so of course, he had to show them some respect.
