An Understated Dominance Chapter 1517 by Marina Vittori

“Abigail, the Moseys’ mansion is filled with elite fighters. There will also be plenty of influential figures arriving. You must be careful not to expose yourself,” Dustin reminded her sternly.

Even though they had disguises on, there were plenty of extraordinary individuals among the Moseys. If their identities were discovered, it could lead to trouble.

Abigail, especially, was the Mystic Arts Order’s Grand Sorceress. In the eyes of the court and righteous individuals, she was a condemned witch that they would gladly eliminate. So, they must be cautious.

“Don’t worry, Dustin. I’m not a kid. I know what to do. Relax. I won’t put you in trouble.” Abigail scanned the area rapidly, almost drooling at the sight of the wealthy individuals.

“Relax? You must be joking!” Dustin was frustrated and knocked on Abigail’s head with his knuckles. He shouldn’t have brought her here. This little money enthusiast seemed to see everyone as a walking money tree.

“Dustin, look! It’s so lively over there.” Suddenly, Abigail noticed something and pointed at the entrance. Dustin followed her gaze and saw a fully armed, elite guard team entering grandly. Leading the group was a man in his early 30s.

He had sharp eyebrows and a stern face, giving off a fierce, domineering presence. He looked especially majestic and heroic in his gold-trimmed general’s uniform.

Wherever he went, the crowd automatically made way and greeted him with respect.

“Who’s that? How dare he lead soldiers into the mansion? He’s got nerves of steel!”

“Are you new to Oakvale? Don’t you even recognize the famous Veros Warrior?”

“What? That’s the Veros Warrior? No wonder he looks so imposing!”

The crowd whispered among themselves, unable to take their eyes off him. While many people had heard of Anders Mosey, few had actually seen him.

Most of the time, he was stationed in the eastern frontier, only returning to Oakvale to visit his adoptive father on special occasions. Since it was Seamus’s birthday celebration today, naturally, he would be present.

“I’m going to change. Bring the gift I prepared for Father into the hall,” Anders instructed as he entered the gates.

His guards immediately lifted a cage into the guest lounge. The cage was covered with a black cloth, so they couldn’t see what was inside, but Dustin caught the faint smell of a wild beast.

“Dustin, it seems like there’s a wild beast in the cage.” Abigail noticed as well.

“Gifting a beast instead of gold and jewels on his father’s birthday. Interesting.” Dustin chuckled, carefully observing Anders.

He had indeed changed drastically compared to ten years ago. Without prior knowledge of his identity, recognizing him would be a challenge.

“Dustin, is he our target?” Abigail sized him up.

“That’s right. Get your team ready. The Emerald Corolla is on him. But don’t take it by force; we have to resort to stealth,” Dustin whispered.

“No problem!” Abigail took out her phone and sent a message discreetly.

“Hmm?” Anders suddenly turned around at that moment as if he had sensed something. His sharp gaze locked onto Dustin and Abigail.

Dustin was surprised at his heightened senses but maintained his composure. He behaved like an ordinary guest, saluting immediately.

Instead of leaving, Anders headed straight for Dustin and Abigail. He asked coldly, “What are your names?”

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?
