Chapter 1381: Smug Smile

“Dustin, your actions just now were a bit excessive. What if you had harmed Owen?” Isabela couldn’t help but feel a bit sorry as she looked at the marks on Owen’s neck. She stood up, turned around, and asked with a soul-searching tone.

“Excessive?” Dustin sneered and asked, “Miss Isabela, you need to understand the situation correctly. It was Owen who attacked with a knife, and I merely acted in self-defense. So, who was really being excessive?”

At his words, Isabela’s expression froze, and she awkwardly explained, “Just now, Owen was only trying to scare you; he wouldn’t have actually hurt you. Why did you have to react so violently?”

“So, it’s all my fault?” Dustin said in a self-deprecating tone. “Was it me who meddled unnecessarily and acted as your shield? Did I provoke a duel voluntarily? Or did I hurt someone from behind and smash a bottle on their head?”

“I… that’s not what I meant,” Isabela said with some guilt. “It was my mistake to hit you with a bottle, but I was panicked and afraid that you would harm Owen. I hope you can understand.”

Dustin looked at her with an indifferent gaze, saying nothing.
