An Understated Dominance Chapter 262 by Marina Vittori

Joshua gritted his teeth and brandished his dagger again.

“Die!” He exerted all his strength into this attack, channeling every ounce of his internal energy. He believed Dustin wouldn’t be able to block the attack even if he was made of steel.

“Hmph!” Dustin had clearly lost his patience. As he watched the oncoming assault, he moved and grabbed the blade firmly. Tightening his grip, two crisp metallic crunches were heard, and the dagger made of refined iron was crushed into pieces.

“What?” Joshua was bewildered. Before Joshua reacted, Dustin extended out his arm again, pressing a finger on his chest.

“Boom!” The next second, it felt as if his bones had disintegrated as he fell limp to the ground. Feeling numb all over, he couldn’t move an inch.

“You What did you do to me?” Joshua was shocked and horrified. He never dreamed that he would be defeated by an unknown kid.

He was a divine– level martial artist! Boulderthorn’s direct disciple! He should have been invincible in Swinton after his return.

Why? Why couldn’t he even defeat this punk? Where the hell did he come from? “Let her go!” Dustin ignored him, looking at him condescendingly from above as it he was looking at an ant.

“Punk! You can’t be my opponent. What trick did you use?” Joshua still couldn’t believe it. He couldn’t accept that a small fry like Dustin would destroy an exceptional fighter like him.

“You speak too much nonsense!” Dustin was irritated and stomped violently on Joshua’s knees.

With a crisp crack, his knees sprayed blood everywhere. Joshua screamed in agony as his face contorted in pain and beads of sweat dripped down from his face.

“How dare you!”

“You insolent bastard!”

When they saw Joshua getting injured, the crowd erupted in anger.

A large number of the Hummer family’s guards swarmed in from different directions, surrounding Dustin in no time. These guards were armed with guns. They had clearly made preparations in advance.

“Rhys! Let go of my brother! Otherwise, after my command, you will be shot to oblivion!” Tina screeched, putting on a front.

Even though Dustin was powerful, he was still a mass of flesh that could get injured and bleed. With so many armed guards surrounding him, he wouldn’t be able to escape unscathed.

“Fire if you dare. I’d like to see who’d die first.” Dustin remarked coldly, without a hint of fear. “You fire. Tina was exasperated. Since Joshua was right beside Dustin, he would also get shot if they opened.

“Dustin Rhys! We’re in Hummer Villa. This is not a place for you to behave atrociously. Let him go! Otherwise. you will regret it!” Jade’s expression was stone cold. She didn’t expect Joshua to be defeated by Dustin either.

However, in this world, bravery changed nothing. Power was more important. Joshua had the Hummer family and Boulderthorn behind him. After she married him, he would also have the support of the Grant family. Who would dare challenge him then?

“I’ll regret it? I’d like to see how much I’ll regret it!” As he spoke, he stomped on Joshua’s other leg, breaking it.

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?
