An Understated Dominance Chapter 1868 by Marina Vittori

The level of defense in the Dragon Guard’s base was indeed formidable. After passing through the wall, it was a different scene before Julius.

From its size, the base behind the wall could be considered a town. There were all kinds of buildings, such as barracks, training grounds, labs, armories, bunkers, and military airports.

There were also many facilities for the civilians there.

After scanning around, Julius predicted that the military base could accommodate at least 50 to 100 thousand people based on the size of the buildings.

Counting out the logistical personnel, this was still an extremely powerful army! With so many weapons and troops, it could take down a city in no time.

Despite having experienced many ups and downs, Julius couldn’t help but secretly be alarmed at that moment.

The Dragon Guard had kept it too well. Without revealing any signs, they had accumulated a substantial military force.

Plus, even West Lucozia’s spies didn’t notice anything.

Suddenly, Julius was a bit regretful of his choice. He wondered if he could escape in one piece if he poisoned Reagan in this base.

It was practically impossible.

“Grand General Rhys, please come with me.” Cinna’s voice interrupted Julius’ thoughts.

Then, Cinna led him to the command room located in the middle of the military base. There were very few knew that a military bunker was built deep beneath the command room.

At this moment, Reagan was silently sitting in the command room while wearing a mask. The old version of Titanic was playing on the television before him.

Meanwhile, Reagan’s eyes were glued to the screen.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door.

“Come in,” Reagan answered casually. The door to the command room was opened. Then, Cinna and Julius walked inside one after another.

“Grand General Rhys, we meet again. Come and sit.” Reagan stood up and shook hands with Julius warmly.

“Sir Judd, your base is truly well- hidden. Despite being West Lucozia’s Grand General of the Iron Stallion Cavalry, I’ve never noticed it for so many years.” Julius sighed.

Reagan smiled and answered, “You’re too kind. They’re all left behind by the previous descendants. I’m only taking it over. Right. Why did you want to meet me so anxiously?”

“To be honest, I’m here to ask for help. Today should have been the day that I ascended to the throne. However, I didn’t expect such a big change to happen.

“Now, all my efforts have been in vain. As I’m at wits’ end, I can only come to you for help,” Julius said with a sigh.

“What? What exactly happened?” Reagan looked confused.

“Rufus didn’t die. He’s still alive and well!” Julius replied lowly.

“What? He didn’t die? How is that possible? My subordinate gave him an attack that should have taken his life. There’s no way he’s still alive.” Reagan’s voice was filled with shock.

“I saw it with my own eyes. There’s no way it’s fake. Rufus is a cunning man. After the assassination attempt this time, he deceived all of us by pretending to be dead.

“This caused our plan to fail and all of our efforts to turn futile,” Julius explained seriously.

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?
