An Understated Dominance Chapter 1061 by Marina Vittori

Just as Gideon was about to speak, he was interrupted by Trent’s furious shouting. “Quick! Fire!  This punk wants to kill General Zink! Shoot him down now!”

Trent looked impatient. It was as if he was afraid that Gideon would beg for mercy.  Upon hearing Trent’s words, Dark Panther Cavalry soldiers removed their safety locks. Then, they

proceeded to load their bullets.  “What the hell are you guys doing? Stop it! Stop it now!” Gideon yelled with all his might. He was shocked.

At this rate, he would be shot all over his body before Dustin died. However, in the next second, the sound of gunfire was heard.

When he locked eyes with them, Trent had secretly signaled the Harmon family’s gunmen hidden

among the crowd. That was why they fired.

Trent thought it would be best if they managed to hit Dustin. But it did not matter if they failed

and accidentally killed Gideon instead.

They could just pass it off as a desperate attempt to save a life.

If that were to happen, Trent could easily put all the blame on Dustin. It was a win–win situation.

“Hmph!” Dustin had already taken action to avoid the bullets as gunfire was heard.

He dragged Gideon with him. But, unfortunately, the latter had a larger physique. As a result, he

got shot in the buttocks.

In an instant, blood gushed out.

“Fuck! Who the fuck permitted you to open fire? I got shot!” Gideon roared.

The Dark Panther Cavalry troops exchanged glances. They did not notice anyone who had shot.

Suddenly, Dustin said, “The Harmon family made a sneak attack. They were planning to kill you

and put the blame on me. Now, do you still want to help them?”

“Harmon family?”

Upon hearing what Dustin said, Gideon’s expression turned grim. He glanced at everyone from the Harmon family.

At that sight, Trent hurriedly explained, “General Zink, that punk is spouting nonsense! Don’t listen to him! He’s trying to sow discord!”

“That’s right! We’re saving you! It’s the kid who wants to kill you!” the rest of the Harmon family chimed in. They feared Gideon would take revenge.

After glaring at them, Gideon turned around and said, “Punk, consider it my unlucky day! I won’t interfere in your affairs anymore!”

“No, General Zink!” someone yelled.

“You’re one of the Four Great Generals of Dark Panther Cavalry! How can you yield to a nobody?”

“That’s right! A soldier should always fight till the end! You shouldn’t be afraid of dying!”

The Harmon family paled while trying to persuade Gideon.

They were sure of one thing. Without Gideon’s support, they were no match against a grandmaster

martial artist.

“Shut the hell up!” Gideon roared.

“Did you think I don’t know what you’re planning? You’re using me, aren’t you? It won’t be that

easy!”

He was not afraid of dying an honorable death in battle.

However, Gideon felt it was unfair if the Harmon family was using him. He might end up dying an

unhorable death instead.

At that moment, Dylan became anxious. “General Zink, I’m your subordinate! Are you not going to

save me?”

“Dylan, I can’t save you today. But I can promise you one thing. If this kid has the guts to kill you,

I’ll avenge you,” Gideon answered solemnly.

Only a few people were with Gideon. Hence, it was not wise for him to confront a grandmaster

martial artist head–on.

“What?” Dylan was stunned after hearing what Gideon said. He thought the latter’s words sounded

2/3

‘Looks like no one can save you today. Join me in hell then!” Dustin declared.

Suddenly, he grabbed Dylan’s leg. Dustin forcibly dragged Dylan as he headed to the entrance.

No one dared to stop Dustin when he passed them.

Even Gideon, the general, could not hold him back. Who else would have the courage to step  forward?

“Help! Someone help me!”

Dylan was frightened and panickedly shouted for help.

Fear was evident on his face. Deep down, he knew he’d die once Dustin dragged him out.

A clear and delicate female voice sounded from the door as Dylan fell into despair.

“The Scarlet Warrior is here!”

Summary An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

Dahlia Nicholson and Dustin Rhys had been married for three years. After Dahlia’s meteoric rise to success, she abandons the useless dead weight that’s Dustin, proposing divorce. Unbeknownst to her, everything she had ever achieved was only because of him.

Chapter 1 “Dustin, here is the divorce agreement prepared by Ms. Nicholson. All you need to do is sign them.” In the president’s office of the Quine Group, the secretary, Lyra Blaine, placed a piece of A4 paper on the table. A man sat opposite her, dressed in plain clothing. “Divorce? What do you mean?” Dustin Rhys was taken aback. “Do you not understand what I’m saying? Your marriage with Ms. Nicholson is over. You’re not even on the same level anymore. Your existence is nothing but a smear on the president’s reputation!” Lyra pulled no punches as she spoke. “A smear on her reputation?” Dustin frowned. “Is that how she thinks of me?” Back when they first got married, the Nicholson family was in ruinous debt. He was the one who helped them when they were at their lowest point. Now that they were rich, Dahlia Nicholson was ready to just kick him out. “Something like that.” Lyra jerked her chin toward the magazine on the table. A photo of a beautiful woman was printed on the front page. “Look at the headline on this magazine, Dustin. Ms. Nicholson’s net worth has hit one billion in the course of just three years, a feat no short of a miracle. She’s now the most desired woman in Swinton! With all this, she’s destined for greatness. But you, you’re just a regular joe. You don’t deserve her at all. I hope that you’ll see some sense and do the right thing.” When Dustin remained silent, Lyra frowned. “I know you’re not happy with this, but this is reality,” she continued. “You might have helped Ms. Nicholson when she was in trouble, but she has repaid you for everything you’ve done for her over the last three years. In fact, you’re the one who owes her now!” “Is our marriage just a business deal to her, then?” Dustin took a deep breath to suppress the emotions within. “If she wants to divorce me, let her speak to me herself.” “Ms. Nicholson is very busy. She doesn’t need to trouble herself with such trifling matters.” “Trifling matters?” Dustin was stunned. Then he laughed bitterly. “Is that so? Is divorce a trifling matter to her? She can’t even find the time to speak to me. Truly, she’s that unattainable now!” “Dustin, don’t delay this any longer.” Lyra pushed the divorce agreement toward him again. “Just sign here and you’ll get a car and a house as compensation. On top of that, you’ll also get eight million dollars. This is more than what you’ll be able to earn in your lifetime!” “Eight million dollars is a lot, but…I don’t need it. I will sign the divorce papers if she comes personally. Otherwise, I won’t sign anything,” Duston said coldly. “Don’t go too far, Dustin!” Lyra slammed her hand on the table. “Don’t say I didn’t warn you. With all her power and resources, Ms. Nicholson can divorce you easily. It’s only because she appreciates her past relationship with you that she’s allowing you to keep your dignity intact. Don’t provoke her!” “My dignity?” Dustin was a little amused by that. She didn’t even want to speak to him directly to divorce him. What kind of dignity was that? Moreover, if she really did appreciate their relationship, then why was she threatening him now?
