Chapter 51
After losing fifty million dollars in the stock market, Amara was dejected.
The mood in the Wyatt family villa was bad.

Fifty million dollars was not a small sum to the Wyatt family. Although it would not make a huge impact on their finances, it had shaken the strong foundations of Amara’s confidence.
To a strong woman like her, this was a huge shock.
The Zimmer family had not let them go and were still preparing to move against the Wyatt family.
The Wyatt sisters were all discouraged and did not have the energy to deal with the problem.
Seeing how dejected her sisters were, Clara frowned.
She made some arrangements by temporarily using Amara’s powers to get the company’s staff to make preparations to nullify the Zimmer family’s attacks.
She was very capable, but she was exhausted for the next several days.
Clara wondered how things had come to this.
She quickly came to a realization.
“Dustin Fox…” she muttered.
Clara was different from her sisters. She was very calculating.
“Dustin is definitely hiding something. He wasn’t just useless trash relying on the Wyatt family to survive …” Her gaze sharpened as her face darkened.
“What’s happening now to the Wyatt family definitely has something to do with him!”
After coming to that conclusion, Clara made a few phone calls and left some instructions. Then, she put on her coat and took the car that was exclusively for the Wyatt Group’s president. She ordered the driver to set off.
She wanted to visit the Langley family just as her sisters had before…
Clara arrived at the Langley family villa in just an hour.
She used the driver’s phone to call Dustin.
“Clara Wyatt, to what do I owe the pleasure?” came Dustin’s voice from the other end. He immediately knew it was her.
Dustin knew every single move that Clara ever made.
Clara’s face stiffened slightly. She did not look very surprised.
“Come outside,” she said icily.
A few minutes later, Dustin stood before her.
Dustin knew that Clara was the smartest of the Wyatt sisters and that she was very clear–headed about

things.
They were both very calculative people, which was why they had never got along since childhood. Clara had always looked at Dustin with disgust and never treated him well.
“Dustin, I have to admit… you’re quite capable!” Clara said icily.
“You flatter me,” Dustin chuckled.
- 0.
“Do you really think I’m complimenting you?” Clara’s face turned frosty. “Dustin, you’re only capable because my father taught you everything you know. Instead of using that knowledge to help the Wyatt family, you’re now using it against us. Don’t you feel even the least bit ashamed?”
Dustin frowned when he heard that. He felt annoyed.
How dare Clara say that he had never done anything for the Wyatt family?
He had slaved away and fought countless battles to protect the members of the Wyatt family. Yet, he had been taunted and told that his injuries were fake…
He had risked his life many times for the Wyatt family. Was that not enough to repay them?
How could Clara say such a thing?
“I know that you’re not some useless piece of trash. You’re very capable. You were able to defeat the William family’s Blackguard and intimidate the William family. You can even control the stock market…” Clara said meaningfully.
“But no matter how the Wyatt family has treated you, your actions prove that you’re an ingrate! The Wyatt family gave you your life! The Wyatt family are your masters! You should dedicate everything in service to us!”
Dustin’s frown grew deeper the more he listened.
His adoptive father had saved his life. That had nothing to do with the Wyatt sisters. His adoptive father had once told him that he could leave if he got weary of all this…
Yet, why did Clara make it sound like he was nothing but the Wyatt family’s stray dog?
Dustin laughed coldly. “I’ve done enough for the Wyatt family. It’s more than enough to repay you!”
After all, he had saved the lives of the five Wyatt sisters many times over.
“If you’re here to tell me off for being an ingrate, then you can save your breath,” Dustin said frostily. “I don’t have time to waste on you. Leave.”
Clara’s gaze was icy as she glared at Dustin.
After a while, her face turned mocking.
“If we had known that things would turn this way, we’d have left you to die! I’ve had enough! I’m here today to offer you something.”
Clara took out a check from her pocket and threw it toward Dustin.
The check slowly floated down in front of him.

“This check is worth five million dollars,” Clara said icily.
“I don’t care how resentful you feel. This money is your compensation. Take it and enjoy the rest of your life…”
Clara paused. Then, her eyes shone with fierceness.
“Listen to me, Dustin Fox. I want you to get out of Rivenesco and never come back!”
The check landed on the ground, but Dustin did not even look at it.
His face twisted with rage.
Clara had come here with a check worth five million dollars to tell him to get out of Rivenesco.
Dustin laughed mockingly.
“Do you think five million dollars can make up for the ten years and more that I spent working so hard for you? Clara, what do you think you’re doing? Charity? Who do you think I am? Without me, the Wyatt family wouldn’t even exist! You and your sisters would have ended up dead and gone!”
Dustin seethed in rage. He wanted to tell Clara everything and demand justice.
Yet, he did not feel the need for it. The members of the Wyatt family would never admit that he had saved
them.
He had wasted his efforts for nothing.
Clara remained calm.
When Dustin finished his venting, she finally spoke up.
“Are you done? If so, pick up the check. Five million dollars is a lot of money to you. Don’t stand there talking about all you’ve done for us. That was your duty. Take the check and leave!”
Clara looked at him threateningly.
“Don’t make me take action. You’ll regret it!”
Dustin suddenly found this interaction very tiring.
What was the point of saying anything to the Wyatt sisters? They were all so full of themselves and did not even treat him like a real person. They would never understand him.
They only wanted him to kneel before them so that they could trample on his dignity.
Dustin did not say anything as he turned to leave. He did not even glance at the check.
Clara’s face was cold as she glared at Dustin.
“Is this your choice?” she asked with a frown. “You’ll regret it, Dustin Fox!”
She turned and got into the car. She did not look at Dustin anymore.
“Tell the shareholders of the company that I’m starting work officially today. I’ll be making some reforms.
Tell them to prepare themselves,” Clara said calmly.
