An Understated Dominance Chapter 1379 by Marina Vittori

“Dustin, don’t be hasty. You can’t take him in a fight!” Eleanor urged, recognizing the danger of the situation.

Ezra, with his martial arts background, exuded an intimidating presence. He could take on ten opponents without breaking a sweat. On the other hand, Dustin was just a doctor. Someone like Ezra would obviously defeat him.

“Don’t worry, I don’t see him as much of a threat,” Dustin said calmly. Ezra, though skilled, was a lower-level martial artist. He could win against average opponents but would struggle against a true martial arts expert.

“You’ve got some nerve, bastard,” Ezra sneered.

He casually unbuttoned his suit jacket, unveiling a chiseled, powerful physique concealed beneath his white shirt. His muscles were a testament to his martial arts background.

“Ezra, don’t do anything foolish!” Eleanor stood between the two men, attempting to defuse the situation.

“Eleanor, this is a battle between men. Don’t interfere. I’ll prove my love for you,” Ezra declared seriously. “Seriously, you’re being irrational!” Eleanor exclaimed. She knew Ezra’s actions were wrong, but she couldn’t help being drawn to the drama.

Two men competing for her attention was a new experience, and her getting the better of her. ego was Ezra taunted, “Dustin, I wouldn’t want you thinking that I’m picking on you. Look at those skinny arms and legs of yours. I’ll give you three chances as a headstart.”

Dustin brushed off Ezra’s insults, waving his hand dismissively. “Let’s skip the chatter, shall we? I’ve got places to be, and I’d rather wrap this up quickly so I can grab a meal.”

Ezra’s face turned crimson at this contemptuous gesture. “You got a death wish!”

With that, he lunged forward. His fist cut through the air, aimed straight at Dustin’s face, with enough power to split a door.

However, just as Ezra’s fist was about to make contact, he received a stinging slap across the face, sending him stumbling backward.

“What?” Ezra was left bewildered, his face throbbing in pain. “What just happened?” he muttered, his hand instinctively covering his cheek.

Before he could make sense of the situation, another sharp slap hit him across the face, sending him tumbling to the ground. This time, he landed ungracefully.

“What?” Eleanor stood in disbelief.

At first, she had thought Ezra would win, but it turned out that Dustin had the upper hand. With just two well- timed and powerful slaps, he had Ezra on the ground.

“I-I can’t believe you d-dared hit me?” Ezra spluttered as he got back on his feet. He shook off the confusion and regained his anger.

“You’ve got the guts to challenge me with this little strength,” Dustin said in a cold, unfazed tone, further fueling Ezra’s rage.

“Bastard! Die!” Ezra growled. He pulled out a knife and thrust it toward Dustin’s chest. If their previous clash was a simple duel, now Ezra was aiming for the kill.

“Now you’ve done it!” Dustin’s gaze turned icy. He swiftly grabbed Ezra’s wrist. With a sharp crack, he snapped it, causing Ezra to cry out in agony.

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?
