An Understated Dominance Chapter 1298 by Marina Vittori

Cody was equally surprised, finding it difficult to believe. Everyone had assumed Dustin was trying to brag and lacked real skills. But, he had completely turned things around and resolved the crisis at Harmony Healers with his ointment. Dustin’s performance was truly remarkable.

“Wow… Dustin, you did a great job!” After recovering from his astonishment, Brooke clapped and laughed joyfully. He was prepared for failure, but Dustin had worked a miracle. It took him by surprise.

“What on earth! What happened to my wound? Why is it gone?” Ziggy kept touching his abdomen, looking concerned. He had put in a lot of effort to stage a deceitful act. If it failed this time, he would face the consequences.

“I never thought there was such a miraculous medicine in the world. If we can get our hands on it, we’ll make a ton of money.” Zion squinted his eyes, deep in thought.

As the Swanson family butler, he possessed a sharp mind. Despite the annoyance over their failed plan, he swiftly recognized a new business opportunity. It was amazing to heal the festering wounds within half an hour. An ointment as good as this was unheard of.

If the Swanson family could get this ointment and sell it, they could dominate South City’s medical market. They could even go to greater heights.

“Your wound has healed. You can leave, Dustin dismissed them with a wave as if swatting away flies.

“You little punk! How dare you mess up my plans? I’ll get you!” Seeing the plan fail, Ziggy was seething with anger and ready to attack.

“Hold on!” Zion stepped forward and slapped Ziggy.

The slap left Ziggy bewildered. The crowd was confused. They wondered why a sudden fight had broken out between people who seemed to be on the same side.

“Mr. Swanson, why did you slap me?” Ziggy, nursing his stinging face, looked upset.

“Hmph! How dare you to disrespect Mr. Rhys. It’s a given that I’m slapping you for that!” Zion glared at Ziggy fiercely.

Ziggy, puzzled and mournful, scanned the perplexed faces around him. Just moments ago, they were stirring up trouble. The sudden shift and Zion’s use of “Mr. Rhys” struck him as odd.

“Why are you just standing there? Apologize to Mr. Rhys, or I’ll break your legs!” Zion scolded Ziggy and slapped him again. Ziggy had no other option but to reluctantly approach Dustin. He apologized, “Mr. Rhys, I’m sorry.”

“Mr. Rhys, I sincerely apologize for not properly disciplining him. It’s my fault. I hope you can forgive us,” Zion added politely with a smile. The members of Harmony Healers were utterly confused by this strange turn of events.

Zion, the butler for the Swanson family, usually exuded an air of superiority and showed little interest in others. What had caused his sudden politeness?

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?
