An Understated Dominance Chapter 1046 by Marina Vittori

“What the heck! What is this?”  When the severed head rolled out, everyone was shocked. They instinctively backed away.

Their shock only increased after they comprehended the situation.  Today was supposed to be a joyous day for Trent, but someone dared to send such a gruesome gift. Were they trying to offend Trent?

No! It was a provocation!  “Who is it? How dare someone send me a severed head?” Trent seethed with anger.  His mood was ruined instantly.

“You worthless piece of trash! How could you be so careless?” Furious, Jacob slapped the butler

hard.

As a butler of the Harmon family, he had been negligent and delivered the gift without inspecting

  1. it. What if it was a bomb?

“I–I thought it was just an ordinary guest. I never expected this.” The butler knelt on the ground

and trembled.

The person was smiling when he passed the butler the gift. So the butler thought it was a guest

trying to get on the family head’s good side.

Who would have thought there was a severed head inside?

“Why are you still standing here? Go and find out who did this!” Jacob kicked the butler.

The butler scrambled to his feet and hurriedly left.

“Dad, I recognize this face. He was one of my trusted men.” Dylan’s face darkened as he spoke up.

At first, he was shocked upon seeing the severed head. Then, he thought the person looked

familiar.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was his own man!

“Your trusted man? What’s going on?” Jacob furrowed his brow.

“He helped me with something yesterday. It seems like someone discovered him and took revenge on him.” Dylan squinted his eyes.

This guy was the one who arranged the accident. He had never expected that the man would end up dead overnight.

It was most likely Natasha.

“So they’re targeting you?” Jacob grasped the situation.

“It seems so, but there’s no need to worry.”

Dylan shrugged and said casually. “I’ll handle this matter. If anyone dares to come and cause trouble, they’ll be digging their graves!”

“You’d better deal with it.”

Jacob nodded and said, “Trent, let Dylan take care of this. Don’t worry.”

“How unlucky!” Trent kicked the severed head aside and left.

Without hesitation, everyone followed suit.

Dustin silently sat in a corner inside the Harmon family residence’s reception hall. He was

sipping on his coffee.

The cold aura he gave off made the surrounding guests keep their distance.

He was a guest the last time he visited the Harmon family, but now he was here for revenge–an

eye for an eye.

Dylan had to pay for his sins!

“Hey, handsome, can we sit here?” A clear and melodious female voice interrupted his thoughts.

Dustin turned to see two women and a man standing behind him.

The one who spoke was a petite woman in a blue dress. She looked delicate.

Beside her was another woman in a red outfit. Not only was her appearance striking but she was

She exuded an air of elegance. But she looked to be the proud type.

A cunning–looking man in an expensive designer suit stood on the right side.

“Go ahead.”

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?
