An Understated Dominance Chapter 1087 by Marina Vittori

The helper caught on and left immediately. Soon, he came in with a wooden box. “Kid, I’m giving this to you as a gift.” Christopher received the wooden box before passing it to Dustin.

Dustin opened it up carefully and was greeted by a unique smell. Inside the wooden box laid a colorful Cherusia. The Cherusia was the size of a palm. It appeared delicate and beautiful, resembling a perfect work of art.

When illuminated by the light, it sparkled with radiant colors, creating a breathtaking sight. “It really is the Cherusia!” Dustin’s face lit up as he jumped to his feet.

He shook Christopher’s hand enthusiastically. “Thank you so much for agreeing to give this to me, General Murray!”

Christopher appeared genuinely generous as he replied, “I have no use for it myself anyway. Besides, I gain a favor by giving it to you.”

“I can’t express my gratitude enough. Please do not hesitate to let me know if you ever need my help,” Dustin said. The Cherusia was invaluable, yet Christopher had given it to him without hesitation. Dustin was truly grateful to him.

“Alright, no need to make a big deal out of it. You can make it up to me by having a few more drinks with me tonight,” Christopher said nonchalantly.

“Sure! I’ll drink with you and make sure you have a great time!” Dustin smiled as he said. He seemed to have remembered something and added, “Oh, right. General Murray, there’s something I must bring to your attention.

“I recently received information that someone may be plotting something at your birthday party. It’s best to be prepared.” The reason Dustin visited today was also to inform Christopher of what he had heard from Samuel.

“It’s nothing new. Every year, people are plotting against me in various ways. I’ve long gotten used to it,”

Christopher dismissed his concerns. As the Grand General and protector of Dragonmarsh, he had spent his entire life on the battlefield and had made countless enemies.

Many people inside and out of the country wanted him dead. Because of that, he had encountered numerous assassination attempts and ambushes.

What else had he yet experienced throughout the years? He wasn’t afraid of death. “As long as you’re prepared.” Dustin nodded and didn’t say anything more.

With Christopher’s position, there would undoubtedly be highly skilled bodyguards always protecting him. Ordinary people would never be able to get close to him.

“Sir Murray, an esteemed guest wishes to meet you outside.” Just then, a butler entered the room and reported respectfully to Christopher.

“An esteemed guest? Who?” Christopher asked impassively. “It’s Diego Bourbon from the aristocratic family in Kimboku,” the butler responded with his head lowered.

“Diego Bourbon? Is he Bourbon, that old dog’s grandson? Why is he here?” Christopher was puzzled.

“Mr. Antonio Bourbon is not feeling well and needs the Cherusia to prolong his life. Mr. Diego must be here for the Cherusia,” the butler stated truthfully.

“Hmph! Bourbon, that old dog, is not worthy of the Cherusia. Tell him to get lost!” Christopher’s expression grew cold.

“Yes, sir.” The butler left without another word.

“Kid, it’s time for dinner. Let’s go drink!” Seeing that it was time, Christopher ended their conversation and eagerly pulled Dustin out of the door.

As for Deigo, he didn’t care about him whatsoever. How dare a Kimboku citizen have their eyes on Dragonmarsh’s treasure? They should go to hell!

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?
