Dahlia Nicholson and Dustin Rhys Novel novel Chapter 1104

Chapter 1104: Doubts and Opposition

“That’s not the deal, folks!” Shiela shook her head, trying to clear the misunderstanding. “Believe me, Dustin is no bad guy. Don’t jump to conclusions!”

But her family and friends didn’t buy it. Caden, her dad, insisted, “You’re too young to see through people. Some hide their true selves well. Only folks like me, with a keen eye, can spot their hidden agendas.”

Agreeing with him, others chimed in, warning her, “Don’t be fooled by him, Shiela. Dustin clearly has ulterior motives.”

However, Shiela remained firm, “I don’t believe it! Dustin would never harm anyone!”

Despite her protests, her loved ones continued to doubt Dustin’s intentions, which distressed her to the point of tears. She turned to Lily, her mom, for support, “Mom, you saw everything, right? You can vouch for Dustin, can’t you?”

Lily tried to mediate, “Could there be some misunderstanding?”

After she left, Lily considered chasing after her, but Caden stopped her, “Let her cool down on her own. She needs to learn to grow up and not be so stubborn.”

Lily sighed, “I hope she’ll come to understand eventually.”

In her eyes, love could lead to trouble, and she’d seen too many people get hurt chasing after it recklessly.
