An Understated Dominance Chapter 1396 by Marina Vittori

“Eleanor, don’t think too highly of yourself. I couldn’t care less about your so-called opportunity,” Dustin responded coldly.

From the moment Eleanor took advantage of him, and when Alistair and Joanne repaid his kindness with hostility, the relationship between the two sides had become irreconcilable.

“Fine, since you’re so stubborn, don’t blame me for moving on from our past friendship!” Elearnor’s expression darkened.

“The same goes for you. If both your families continue harboring ill intentions, you’ll bear the consequences!” Dustin retorted.

“How stupid!” With a disdainful snort, Eleanor turned around and walked away. She was about to get into her car when a thought struck her.

She turned back to ieer. “Oh, I forgot to mention. The Welch family and the Swanson family will be collaborating on the development and production of Dew Balm.

“It won’t be long before Dew Balm gains fame in Oakvale and the rest of the world, bringing us a continuous stream of wealth!

“Of course, this is all thanks to you. If you hadn’t provided us with the formula, we wouldn’t have had such a golden opportunity!

“How does it feel? Are you surprised? You should thank us for promoting Dew Balm on your behalf!” Eleanor looked smile. smug as she wore a cheerful

Harmony Healers was nothing compared to the value of Dew Balm. Taking the Dew Balm formula from Dustin was the best decision the Welch family could have ever made.

“Bastards!” Brooke gritted his teeth as anger welled up in him. He knew how valuable Dew Balm was since he had witnessed its miraculous effects..

Dustin could have achieved substantial wealth through Dew Balm. Instead, the Welchs had betrayed him and claimed the formula for themselves.

They were absolutely despicable!

“Eleanor Welch, do you really think you’ve won?” Dustin suddenly questioned.

“Haven’t we?” Eleanor retorted with a smile. “Don’t celebrate just yet. Even though you have the formula, mine is still the original,” Dustin said impassively.

“So what? Even if you have the formula, what can you do? Do you really think you’ll be able to sell it? Don’t be naive!” Eleanor snorted disdainfully.

“South City is our territory. Challenging us would be a foolish move. If you have any sense left, you’ll apologize to us. You might still have a way out, then.”

In this world, the act of copying and undermining original ideas was far from uncommon. What could a mere doctor do against two powerful and wealthy families?

“Since you’re so confident, let’s wait and see what happens.” Dustin remained unbothered.

“Hmph! I’m going to make you regret this!” Eleanor glared at him before leaving. A beggar dared go against her? He clearly didn’t know his place!

“Since you enjoy playing with fire, don’t blame me for responding in the same way.” Dustin narrowed his eyes, his gaze growing colder.

In fact, when he had made the agreement with the Welchs concerning the formula, he had kept a backup plan in case things went south.

He had intended to provide them with the complete formula after securing the other two precious herbs. He didn’t expect them to go back on their word and repay kindness with enmity instead.

He was going to make them pay a heavy price for their betrayal!

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?
