Chapter 728
"Let's go inside." Simone noticed Dustin was uncomfortable. She took his arm and led him in.
As soon as they entered the living room, everyone stood up when they saw
Dustin.
"Have a seat," Alvern said with a smile. He pulled out the chair at the head of the table and signaled for Dustin to sit.
That seat was usually reserved for Alvern.
Not long ago, Dustin did not even have a seat here, but this time, everyone was trying to get him to sit in the most important spot.
"I don't want to sit there." Dustin took Simone's hand and simply chose two other seats.
"Wherever you want to sit is fine," Alvern said with a smile and motioned for everyone to sit down.
The family dinner began.
But no one started eating until Dustin did. They all stared at him, and the atmosphere felt awkward.
"Dustin, eat up," said Simone and broke the silence as she put some food on his plate.
Only then did Dustin start eating.
When they saw this, the Langley family smiled and finally started eating too.
"Dustin," Alvern called. Everyone quickly stopped eating and fell silent.
Alvern picked up a wine glass and stood up.
"In the past, we were wrong. We didn't recognize how important you were and treated you poorly.
"Now, we sincerely apologize and hope you can forgive us. Let me toast to you."
The other Langley family members stood up with their glasses, ready to toast and apologize to Dustin.
Everyone, both older and younger, showed great respect for him. No one dared to act any other way.
Dustin sat in silence.
Simone noticed and softly nudged him.
Only then did Dustin pick up his wine glass and drink it all in one go.
The Langley family smiled. After finishing their wine, they sat back down.

"I never thought we'd be so wrong,” Alvern said with a sigh. "I can't believe the son of a top family is going to be the Langley family's son-in-law. He's such a noble person! This is an unbelievable stroke of luck! The Langley family must have worked for this for generations!" swnovel
The others nodded. Their eyes were bright as they looked at Dustin.
With such an impressive future son-in-law, the Langley family had no reason not to succeed.noveldrama
Things had changed. Everyone wanted to win Dustin's favor.
"What's even more amazing is that Dustin has a big heart. After everything we've done wrong, he's still willing to forgive us. From now on, we'll learn from our mistakes and never take his forgiveness for granted. Everyone, did you hear that?" Alvern said loudly. swnovel
"Yes!"
"Definitely!"
"From now on, the Langley family will follow him. Whatever he says, we'll do."
"Dustin, from now on, we'll depend on you," Alvern said with a smile.
Dustin just snorted and did not reply.
"I could tell from the beginning that Dustin had a special presence. I didn't expect him to be the son of such a powerful family. People from noble families really do have
different vibe," Darren saidver

"Just look at whose son-in-law he is going to be." David and Monique grinned. "Our daughter is so lucky to have such an amazing man as her fiance."
"Yes, she is lucky." Everyone nodded.
The room was filled with compliments. Everyone was praising Dustin, and the flattery did not stop.
Simone watched all of this with mixed feelings.
She thought, 'What if they knew Dustin was just an adopted son and was already kicked out by the Fawkes family? What would they think then?'
She could not imagine it.
Dustin stayed calm and unaffected. He faced these people without showing any emotion.
What do you think?
