An Understated Dominance Chapter 1415 by Marina Vittori

“Huh?” Dexter, who had been firing shots, saw something flash before his eyes. Dustin suddenly reappeared in front of him. He was unbelievably fast, given the fact that he was already quite far away when he pulled the trigger.

“You … are courting death!”

Dexter’s expression changed when he heard a cold and stern voice beside his ear. He lifted his gun and wanted to fire another shot.

However, before he could pull the trigger, Dustin held his wrist and gave it a tight squeeze. With a loud crack, Dexter’s wrist limped downward immediately, and his fingers let go of the gun lifelessly.

“Ah!” After he recovered from his shock, Dexter let out a loud cry. Dustin gave him another punch in the stomach as he wailed.

He spit out another mouthful of blood. Dexter was like a ballistic missile when he was sent flying several yards away. He then slammed into the wall heavily, and it cracked in several places upon impact. His body was stuck to the wall momentarily before sliding down slowly.

His head was lowered, and blood dripped from his nose and mouth. No one had any idea how many bones inside him had been broken.

Dexter had been crippled with just one punch. The crowd was stunned beyond words when they saw it.

It began with Dexter withdrawing his gun for a sneak attack. Then, it was followed by Dustin’s retaliation, which led to Dexter being incapacitated.

It all happened too quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was over. It was so fast that some of the people present didn’t realize what was happening.

“Do you have no integrity? Pulling a sneak attack? It seems to be your favorite move.” Dustin approached him with a cold expression as he stepped on Dexter’s chest.

“You-” Dexter wanted to say something, but he spit out blood before he could. He felt like his chest was going to explode. His heart was being subjected to a lot of pressure. If Dustin applied more force, he might just explode.

“Stop!” At this moment, Cody stood up suddenly and shouted, “Hey! Dustin! How dare you? Let Mr. Dexter go!”

“Why? Are you getting yourself involved?” Dustin slowly turned to look at him with a sharp gaze.

Cody instantly felt scared and nervous. However, thinking about the wealth he could gain and the chance to curry favor with the Fallon family, he gritted his teeth. He mustered his courage and took a few steps forward.

“Dustin Rhys! You’ve gone too far! Mr. Dexter is from a prestigious family. There’d be serious consequences if you hurt him!

“If you know what’s good for you, let him go now! Apologize publicly, and maybe they’ll let you live!” Cody spoke with his nose in the air with a false sense of bravado.

If he could protect Dexter today, he would have earned some favor with the Fallon family. This could be the chance to bring the Ostrower family into the elite circle.

“That’s right! I demand that you let him go now! If not, you’d be in big trouble!” Harper followed suit.

Dexter might be a little down on his luck now, but he was still a decorated general. If she could win his heart, even just to be his mistress, it’d be an honor.

“And if I refuse?” Dustine smirked.

“You wouldn’t dare!” Harper glared at him. “Dustin Rhys! You’d better know your worth and know what’s good for you!” Cody exclaimed in a stern voice. Even though the rest didn’t voice their opinion, they all had the same thoughts.

Dustin might be skilled, but he was a nobody. Natasha might be on his side, but she could never challenge the Fallon family. The wisest choice to make was to stop before it was too late.

“Really?” Dustin slowly applied more pressure on his foot. Dexter, who was under him, felt suffocated as his eyes rolled backward and his face reddened. He was short of breath, and he felt as if his heart was going to jump out from his chest.

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?
