An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1339

When the door was kicked open, everyone was stunned and instinctively looked over. A fashionably dressed and sweet- looking Eleanor stood at the door. She walked in with an air of indifference. Dustin trailed in behind her casually.

“Eleanor?”

“Ms. Welch?”

When they saw who it was, everyone’s expression changed. Especially Ezra, who immediately withdrew his hand from the lady’s waist as if he was electrocuted.

Then, he stood up and forced a smile.

“Eleanor, why are you here?”

“What, you can be here, and I can’t?” Eleanor glanced at the lady before fixing her gaze on Ezra. Though she had mentally prepared herself, it still angered her to see the cheating couple behave so intimately.

“Sure you can! But why didn’t you me beforehand? I could have made arrangements for you,” Ezra said with a smile. tell “No need. I’m just here to have a look.”

As Eleanor spoke, her gaze trailed over to the lady on the couch, who looked nervous. Eleanor asked casually, “Who’s this beside you? I don’t think I’ve seen her before.”

“Oh, her? She’s Sheehan’s new girlfriend.”

Ezra winked at Sheehan, attempting to signal at him to cover up for him. It took Sheehan a moment to grasp what Ezra was signaling. Then, he chuckled and tried to smooth things over.

“Yes, Eleanor. Here, let me make introductions. This is Suzy Summers, my girlfriend. She’s a celebrity.”

“Hello, Eleanor.” Suzy quickly stood up and forced a smile. Ms. Welch was known to have a fiery temper. Suzy knew that nothing good. would ever come from crossing someone like her.

“Why would Sheehan’s girlfriend be sitting beside you?” Eleanor asked.

“Oh! I’m a fan of Ms. Summers’, so I was asking her about her movies. We were just chatting when you came in,” Ezra explained with a smile.

Then, his expression turned grave. Eleanor, you’re not suspecting me of cheating on you, are you?

“I swear to god I’ve turned over a new leaf! I’d never do anything to wrong you! I swear!”

“What you do has got nothing to do with me. I’m just here to join in on the fun.”

Eleanor took a seat on the couch, stony -faced. The others who sat beside her quickly scooted away. Anyone could tell that Ms. Welch was in a foul mood.

“Eleanor…” Ezra approached her shamelessly and sat beside her. “What’s wrong? Are you in a bad mood today? Do you need me to go shopping with you?”

“Stay away from me!” Eleanor glared at him, scaring Ezra that he dared not sit too close to her.

“Hmph! Even if I need someone to accompany me while I shop, it wouldn’t be you.” Eleanor looked toward Dustin as she spoke, smiling sweetly.

Then, she patted the empty seat beside her. “Here, Dustin. You may sit here.”

Dustin had no choice but to do as he was told. To his right was Ezra, and to his left was Eleanor. The three sat in a row, one next to the other.

“Eleanor, who’s this?” Ezra eyed Dustin up and down. He had initially thought that Dustin was Eleanor’s bodyguard, so he didnt pay attention to him. But now, it seemed to him that something was going on between them.

“Oh, this is Dustin, my best friend,” Eleanor introduced with a smile.

“Best friend?” Ezra’s face darkened when he heard that.

Best friend? More like friends with benefits! In this day and age, there was no pure friendship between a man and a woman!

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?
