An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1159
“You want a fight?” Cornelius grinned when he saw the guards charging toward them. “Boys, you have three minutes. Go for it!”
“Alright!” The disciples of Kirin Gang were excited. They rubbed their fist on their palm as they went up to face them.
Cornelius was the leader of Shadow Gang, and all the members were formidable figures who had escaped Azkaban. They were considered the elites even within the Kirin Gang.
And now, after Dustin’s vigorous training, their abilities have improved by leaps and bounds. Any one of them could easily take out a hundred opponents in one go.
They would not lose out to any major guild in the martial world, much less these mediocre guards. As expected, it was immediately clear who was winning once the fight started. The disciples of Kirin Gang, who used to be from Shadow Gang, quickly crushed the guards in no time.
In under three minutes, all 30 guards were sprawled on the ground. They were so badly hurt that they couldn’t even move.
“Trash! What a bunch of trash!” Lou flew into a rage when he saw all his men on the ground. He had thought that they could hold up for at least a while. Who would have thought that they’d all be defeated so quickly? They were absolutely useless!
“Trash the place up! I want the place totally wrecked!” Cornelius did not hold back as he instructed the disciples of Kirin Gang to carry on with what they had started out to do.
But, of course, their aim was only to trash the place up without causing harm to the innocent onlookers.
“You ignorant bastards! How dare you act up here in A’roma? I guess all of you have death wishes! Just you wait!”
Lou was livid. He took out his phone and made a call for backup. Dustin simply watched on without stopping him. He had intended to be reasonable and talk things out, but since they insisted on throwing their weight around, he would also play at their game.
“Dustin, aren’t you going overboard?” Dahlia, who had been silently watching by the side, suddenly spoke up. “I’ve gone overboard? I don’t think so.” Dustin shrugged.
“Mr. Geek owns A’roma. He has the freedom to decide who he serves. “His words might have been harsh, but you should not have gotten your men here to trash the place. Besides, you won’t be able to handle the consequences,” Dahlia warned.
It didn’t matter who was in the wrong. Lou had the Grants behind him. They were not people that an insurance agent could afford to offend. Not even if he had the Harmons backing him up.
“Isn’t that statement of yours a little double standard, Ms. Nicholson?” Natasha scoffed.
“Why didn’t you say anything when Mr. Geek was insulting us earlier? Or when he was bossing people around? But now that he’s starting to lose out, you’re backing him up? To act all righteous?”
She had been fairly annoying before she lost her memories. But how was she even more insufferable now that she suffered from amnesia?
“I’m just stating facts. “Dahlia answered coldly, “Mr. Geek has got the Grants backing him up. You are in no position to cross them.
“If you stop now, I might be able to put in some good words for you and smooth things over.”
“Thanks for the consideration, but no thanks, Ms. Nicholson. We can handle it ourselves.” Natasha turned down Dahlia’s offer without even giving it any thought.
It did not matter to Natasha whether Dahlia was capable of doing that. Even if she was, Natasha didn’t want help from her.
“Dahlia, why are you helping them? If they have a death wish, let them have their way!” Florence pursed her lips.
“Yes, Dahlia, all we need to do is to sit by and watch. Why should we meddle with their affairs? It will do us no good,” Julie echoed.
She had been dying to see Dustin and his friends get into deep trouble. Now that the opportunity presented itself, she would not let it slip by.
“Do you really intend to go against the Grants?” Dahlia’s gaze on Dustin was sharp as she asked one last time.
“I will shut A’roma down for sure today. If the Grants insist on standing up for him, I’ll go all out,” Dustin replied resolutely.
“You-” Dahlia frowned in frustration.
