An Understated Dominance Chapter 1089 by Marina Vittori

“Sir Murray has given the Cherusia away.” Mrs. Patty shook her head. “He gave it away? To whom?” Caden’s smile froze. “A young man named Dustin.” Mrs. Patty told him the truth.

“What? He gave it to that brat?” Caden frowned, and his expression turned dark. How could he give a precious treasure like the Cherusia to a loser like Dustin? He was too foolish!

Even if Dustin had saved Sheila before, they had already rewarded him. Was it necessary to treat him that well? “Can we get it back?” Caden couldn’t accept it. He had even confidently promised Diego. He didn’t expect problems to arise so quickly.

“You know Sir Murray’s personality. He would never get something he’s given away back.” Mrs. Patty put down that thought.

“Damn it! Just what makes him worthy of such a treasure?” Caden was fuming. “Mr. Caden, who is this Dustin? It seems like General Murray favors him.”

“He’s no one. My father likes him just because he saved my daughter once,”

Caden explained. “From what you’re saying, it seems like I’m not fated to get my hands on the Cherusia.” Diego narrowed his eyes.

“Not exactly…” Caden seemed to have thought of something. In a lowered voice, he continued, “Mr. Diego, while we can’t acquire i openly, we can always get it through dirty means.

“That Dustin brat is no one. With the Bourbon family’s influence, it shouldn’t be hard to steal the Cherusia from him.”

“Steal?” Diego raised an eyebrow. “Isn’t he on good terms with General Murray? Won’t I be offending the General by doing so?”

“If you and I don’t say anything, who would find out?” Caden smiled meaningfully. “Besides, my old man is just interested in him now. He won’t go to war over some poor kid.

“There’s no need to worry; I’ll cover for you. Nothing would go wrong!” “Oh? Is that so?” Diego was intrigued.

“Since you put it that way, I’ll take the risk and try it.”

“Mr. Diego, please find a good opportunity to act. And if possible, after acquiring the treasure, it would be best to…

Instead of finishing his sentence, Caden made a throat-slitting gesture. Since Dustin was so ungrateful, there was no point in keeping him alive. Fortunately, this was the chance to get rid of him through someone else.

“I understand. I will follow your request. I shall be leaving now.” Diego nodded before leaving with his two bodyguards.

“Mrs. Patty, you are to keep today’s matter to yourself, understand?” Caden glanced at her.

“I understand.” Mrs. Patty nodded. “Alright, I’m going to train my cultivation now. Wait outside, and don’t let anyone disturb me.” Caden waved dismissively.

After Mrs. Patty left, Caden hid the Raikiri well. He then sat on the bed and began to train silently. Soon, a layer of dark energy appeared on the surface of his body. The ominous and chilling dark energy immediately lowered the temperature of the room, turning the room into an ice chamber.

As he continued to train, his body suddenly trembled, and he broke out in sweat. Veins bulged on his face, and his expression contorted in pain.

The next second, Caden spat out a mouthful of blood and fell unconscious.

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?
