An Understated Dominance Chapter 2127 by Marina Vittori

“I don’t dare say it’s a brilliant idea, but it’s simple and effective. If we can grab the opportunity, it shouldn’t be difficult to catch the killer.” Dalen said with a smile.

“Mr. Shade, your idea isn’t bad. One question, though. Who’s going to be the bait?” Crystal quickly grasped the main problem.

The most difficult part was to choose who to be the bait.

The person must be a contestant and extremely skilled, daring to take the risk. This way, the bait could come out unscathed when faced with the killer’s attack.

Otherwise, they might lose the bait and let the killer escape.

“Well…” Dalen shook the folding fan and looked toward Dustin meaningfully.

Although he didn’t speak, it was obvious who he chose.

Crystal suddenly patted Dustin’s shoulder and announced, “There’s no need to choose. I think Dustin is a good fit! He can even block Kendricks’ attack. I’m sure he’ll be safe when faced with the killer’s attack!”

“That’s right! If Dustin agrees to take part, I’m sure he can get rid of the killer without our ambush!” Miles nodded with a smile.

Without anyone noticing, Miles had flattered Dustin again.

Dustin raised his eyebrows and rebuked, “Me? I’m not trying to reject, but the killer’s target is the contestants. I haven’t even signed up, so I’m not his target.”

Crystal grabbed his arm and replied hurriedly, “It’ll just take a few minutes to register. Let’s go! There’s still time, and the sun hasn’t set yet. Let’s go and register!”

“Is there a need to be in such a rush?” Dustin was quite speechless.

“It’ll be a shame if we miss this opportunity. After tonight, it’s unsure how many young and talented martial artists might die. You’re now a hero respected by many, so you should shoulder this responsibility!” Crystal advised.

“Wait a minute! I’m no hero. Plus, heroes usually are short-lived. What if I got killed on this mission?” Dustin answered.

“You don’t need to worry. We’ll definitely protect you, so just relax and go!” Crystal patted her chest, trying to get Dustin to rely on her.

A weird look appeared on Dustin’s face. He wondered how they were going to protect him if they couldn’t even protect themselves. They were basically talking nonsense.

“Dustin, we’re not going to force you if you’re not willing to. However, we should all work together to overcome this difficulty in such a situation.”

Dalen was serious.

Among all of them, Dustin was the most suitable.

Plus, Dustin had gotten rather famous after the battle with Marco and Kendrick. With just a little embellishment, he could easily attract the killer’s attention and successfully carry out the bait plan.

Of course, Dalen understood if Dustin thought it was risky and refused. After all, nobody would be willing to bet on their lives.

“I can be a bait. However, I have a condition,” Dustin suddenly said after thinking it over.

“Do tell us. I won’t refuse as long as I can fulfill it,” Dalen declared resolutely.

“It’s simple. Let me handle the killer once we capture him. I’m quite interested in him.” Dustin’s face was solemn.

“No problem. As long as he doesn’t threaten the martial world anymore, you can deal with him as you want!” Dalen agreed.

Everyone glanced at each other and nodded.

They didn’t care who was the killer as long as they could get rid of him.

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?
