An Understated Dominance Chapter 603 by Marina Vittori

James‘ death shocked everyone. They couldn’t believe that the man who had been so full of life last night was now dead.

“N–no! It can’t be! How could my brother be dead?” Dahlia shook her head repeatedly, her face full of disbelief. “Please try and save my brother again! I’m willing to pay any price!”

“I’m sorry, but there’s nothing we can do. Our deepest condolences.” The doctor shook his head. “But how could this be?” Tears streamed down Dahlia’s face, and she staggered backward. She  couldn’t believe that her brother had died just like that.

“Oh, James! My son!” Florence wailed in anguish as James‘ body was wheeled out. She burst into tears at the sight of the lifeless body. She couldn’t believe that her only son, whom she babied endlessly, had died so suddenly. What a tragic outcome!

“Doctor, my nephew was fine yesterday, so why did he die? Did you guys make a mistake during surgery?” Victoria questioned.

The patient suffered a severe head injury that resulted in intracranial bleeding. We’ve done everything we could.” The surgeon quickly explained.

Hearing this, Florence sprung up and swore. “It’s Dustin! That fucker did this! He killed my son!”

“You’re right. James must have died because of Dustin’s violent assault last night. He even hit James on the head!” Julie exclaimed, a sudden realization dawning on her.

“That goddamn bastard! How dare he kill my son! I’ll make him pay!” Florence roared.

“I–it can’t be Dustin!” Dahlia was still in denial.

“Dahlia Nicholson! Your brother is dead! Are you still going to defend that piece of shit?” Florence

was furious.

“There must be a misunderstanding. There must be!” Dahlia kept shaking her head, unable to accept this shocking reality.

“Dahlia, it’s true that Dustin did it. We saw the whole thing happen last night.” Julie stated

gravely.

“I was there too. This happened because Dustin assaulted James.” Victoria echoed.

“Open your eyes and look at your brother’s body. Look at what that bastard did to James‘ face!” Florence grabbed Dahlia by the collar and dragged her toward James‘ lifeless body. The bruises and swelling on his face that indicated his brutal assault were still clearly visible.

“Why? Why did this happen?” Dahlia sobbed in anguish. Her brother’s death was already a huge blow to her, but the fact that Dustin was the person who killed James hurt her far worse.

Although she wanted to deny this truth, all evidence pointed at Dustin, so she had no choice but to accept it. Now, she was at a loss for what to do.

Why had it been Dustin?

1/2

Why did he hurt her brother?

What will happen to her and Dustin?

“Oh God, why are you doing this to me? Why?” Dahlia screamed in her head. She clutched her chest and felt as her heart shattered into a million pieces as she sobbed heartbreakingly.

Dahlia was eventually so overwhelmed that she collapsed, passing out on the spot.

In the afternoon, inside one of the hospital’s wards, Florence and the others had started handling. things related to James‘ passing.

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?
