An Understated Dominance Chapter 2058 by Marina Vittori

In the center square of the ancient town, a crowd of onlookers, primarily martial artists, had gathered.

All eyes were on a young man in warrior gear, rocking wooden sandals and a bun hairdo. He chilled on a bench with only a bottle of wine and a sword on the table.

The man sipped his drink casually, not bothering about the talks around him. Behind him stood a middle-aged man in a suit and white gloves, dressed like a butler.

Though the butler seemed meek around the young man, his eyes scanned the crowd with a snobby air.

The butler spoke loudly to the gathering crowd, “Listen up, people from Dragonmarsh!

“Meet our young master, Marco Alessandro! We’re from Kimboku and came to Sacred Wyrm Summit to challenge the best fighters from Dragonmarsh.

“We’re having a three-day tournament. If anyone can beat Mr. Alessandro, they’ll get the ‘Demon Sword,’ one of Kimboku’s top ten swords!

“But if you’re not up for it, you’ll have to cancel the tournament and accept that you’re just a bunch of eastern scoundrels!”

As soon as he said this, the whole crowd went wild. Those with a short fuse started throwing insults right away.

“What the heck! You’re incredibly arrogant. I’m not going to let you off!”

“Bastard! How dare you display such

arrogance in Dragonmarsh? You’re practically begging for trouble meddling with us in this place!”

“Damn it! Don’t even think about holding me back. I must confront these two imbeciles head-on!”

The butler’s words turned everything chaotic, with insults and angry remarks filling the air.

Some hot-headed youths even brandished their weapons, gearing up for a fight. Challenging the martial artist of Dragonmarsh openly at the foot of Sacred Wrym Summit was like walking into a death trap.

“If you’re not satisfied, feel free to challenge Mr. Alessandro on the stage. But be warned, if you fight unfairly by outnumbering us, we won’t back down either,” the butler said impassively.

He knew his words would stir anger, but he never saw these people as a real threat from the moment he spoke.

“Stop!”

Suddenly, a gray-haired elderly man stepped forward, halting the eager youths who were about to launch an attack.

The elderly man, clearly of noble stature, spoke with authority, instantly shushing the crowd.

Surveying the surroundings, the old man declared, “As representatives of the mighty nation of Dragonmarsh, we won’t allow ourselves to be disturbed by the provocations of a small country.

“If warriors from Kimboku want to challenge us, let’s have a fair fight. They should admit our victory with sportsmanship.”

“Elder Douglas is right! If we rush in and defeat them hastily, it’s not honorable. People will mock us. Since they want a stage, let’s give it to them! Let’s defeat them on the stage!”

“Exactly! Dragonmarsh has many skilled martial artists. We can openly beat those Kimboku warriors on the stage and completely embarrass them!”

Many people agreed with these thoughts. Although they wanted to teach these two arrogant Kimboku warriors a lesson, they knew they had to win in a fair and honorable way.

The butler stared at the elderly man and asked, “By the way, who are you?”

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?
