An Understated Dominance Chapter 1398 by Marina Vittori

“Ms. Camron, I have a business proposal I’d like to discuss with you, one that’s sure to be absolutely profitable.” Dustin got straight to the point.

“Oh? What kind of business?” Lana was interested. “I can’t explain it over the phone. Let’s meet face-to-face at Regal Court in an hour,” Dustin suggested.

“Alright, see you there.”

After hanging up, Dustin got into his car and left the house. With Maximus keeping guard at home, he didn’t need to worry about what the Swansons and Welchs were up to.

It was noon when Dustin arrived at Regal Court. He walked through the front doors and was led straight to the second floor by a waiter. He eventually ended up in a private room.

Inside, Lana was sipping her tea leisurely in her tight-fitting red dress. She had put on light makeup and had a paper fan in her hand.

Her long hair was tied behind her back, and her red dress accentuated her voluptuous figure, making her exceptionally alluring. Her long, pale legs that were crossed were particularly eye-catching.

Despite her vintage and elegant attire, she gave off a sensual and captivating charm. The difference in style made her all the more desirable.

“Oh, handsome, you’ve arrived? Please, take a seat.” Lana stood up and welcomed Dustin as he entered, flashing a flirtatious smile.

“Ms. Camron, sorry for making you wait.” Dustin took a seat gracefully.

“It’s nothing. I just arrived myself.” Lana smiled faintly and poured Dustin a cup of tea.

“Here, I brewed it myself. Try it.”

Dustin brought the teacup to his lips and took a sip. He nodded. “It’s good tea, and it has a distinctive taste.”

“Of course, I prefer unique things,” Lana smiled meaningfully. Dustin hadn’t noticed when she slipped off her high heels, but her foot was now gradually making its way up his calf.

“Ms. Camron, shall we start talking business?” Dustin smoothly retracted his leg. He continued calmly, “I invited you out today to discuss a potential collaboration where we can make money together.”

“Make money?” The corner of Lana’s lips curved up into a smile.

“Now that you’ve brought this up, I don’t feel tired anymore. What’s the plan?!!

“Have you heard of Dew Balm, Ms. Camron?” Dustin asked.

“Nope.” Lana shook her head.

“Dew Balm is an ointment that works just like Harmony Healer’s golden salve. But it’s much more effective,” Dustin explained.

“Much more effective? How much more effective?” Lana was unconvinced. “It’s at least ten times better than the golden salve.” Dustin’s statement was astonishing.

“Ten times?” Lana’s heart skipped a beat, and she turned serious.

“You’re not joking, are you?”

“If you don’t believe me, I can prove it to you.” Dustin suddenly pulled out a knife as he spoke and slashed himself in the arm.

Instantly, his skin was sliced open, and blood began to flow. Without an energy armor, even a grandmaster was not immune to injuries.

“Hey! Are you crazy? Why would you cut yourself like that?” Lana was shocked and quickly pulled out her handkerchief to bandage Dustin’s wound.

She was extremely concerned.

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?
