“Alright… he’s here. Good luck,” Lana said with a mischievous smile. She subtly jutted her chin in a
certain direction.
Dustin followed her gaze and saw a young man dressed in a classy suit making his way to the second
floor. With his long hair and a folding fan in hand, he exuded an old-school charm. It reminded Dustin of
classic movie stars.
Surrounded by a group of bodyguards and attendants, it was clear that this guy was the center of
attention. Anyone attempting to get closer was swiftly blocked. There was no doubt that these
bodyguards meant business.
“How about it? He looks pretty good, right? If you’re into that sort of thing, you won’t be at a loss,
either.” Lana chuckled, covering her mouth.
The excitement in her eyes couldn’t be concealed. The prospect of a showdown between two men
really thrilled her.

roll his eyes at Lana’s playful antics. “Could you please be a bit more serious, Lana?”
But Lana just grinned, her eyes filled with excitement. “Hey, business meetings can be fun too, you
know.”
Dustin, trying to maintain his professionalism, retorted, “Just so we’re clear, I’m not here to sell myself.”
Lana’s response was a mischievous wink. “Well, it might not come to that if you can convince Bo. Who
knows, he might be interested in what you’re offering.”
Dustin raised an eyebrow. “Are you trying to get me into trouble, Lana?”
Lana feigned innocence, but her eyes sparkled mischievously. “Oh, come on, Dustin. I’m a perfectly
respectable lady. I’m not into any of that stuff.”
Dustin let out a resigned sigh. “Alright, I’m going to go and feel out the situation.”
Taking a deep breath, he drained his teacup. Then, he stood up and made his way toward the private
room where Bo was located.
Inside Bo’s private room, a squad of bodyguards maintained a tight security perimeter. They ensured
that no strangers could get close.
Even the servers delivering food and tea were required to stop at the door. The Dawson family had
clearly taken every precaution to eliminate potential risks.
“Who are you? Stop right there!” one of the bodyguards demanded sternly.
As Dustin approached the door, he was abruptly stopped by a wall of imposing bodyguards. These
beefy guards were like human walls. They blocked Dustin’s line of sight and prevented him from seeing
what was happening inside.
Dustin remained calm. He asked politely, “Is Mr. Dawson inside?”
The bodyguards remained vigilant, ready to react to any unusual movements. “So what if he is? Mr.
Dawson doesn’t meet with outsiders. Please leave immediately.”
They’d draw their weapons at the slightest hint of trouble from Dustin. “No need to be so uptight. I
mean no harm,” he reassured them.

interested,” Dustin requested, attempting to get his message across.
“Business?” The bodyguards shared a brief glance before scrutinizing Dustin’s appearance.
He was a good-looking man, the type Bo usually liked. However, despite his looks, coming from an
unknown source might not work in his favor.
“Meeting Mr. Dawson requires a formal request and identity verification. Once we’ve confirmed your
identity, Mr. Dawson will decide whether to see you.”
Dustin furrowed his brow, a bit frustrated. “Is it really that complicated?”
“Complicated?” The guard scoffed. ” Every day, countless people request to see him. If you find it too
bothersome, you’re welcome to leave.”
What was this man thinking? The Dawson family was top-tier, and Bo was the sole heir. It wasn’t just a
matter of showing up unannounced and meeting up.
“Please inform Mr. Dawson that I have important business,” Dustin said, making a polite gesture.
