An Understated Dominance Chapter 985 by Marina Vittori

“Sir, we’re not disciples of the Jade Maiden Sisterhood. Should we pray?” Abigail asked. “We should respect the dead,” Dustin said, nodding.

Iris was a great legend. Although she already passed, she deserved to be respected. “Okay.” Abigail agreed. She kneeled in front of the stone tablet and kowtowed.

Suddenly, the stone tablet began rumbling. It sunk into the earth and disappeared. Then, an exquisite box emerged from the stone tablet’s original spot.

“Sir, there’s something here!” Abigail’s eyes lit up, and she immediately opened the box.

A golden pearl was Inside the wooden box. It was dazzling and sparkling.

The golden liquid inside was spinning like a whirlpool. It was absorbing the spiritual energy from its surroundings.

“Oh my gosh, is this the Celestial Pearl?!” Azalea’s eyes grew wide with shock.

Even the ever–composed Dustin was surprised.

He never thought the box would contain a legendary sacred relic of the martial world–the

Celestial Pearl!

“What’s a Celestial Pearl?” Abigail cocked her head in confusion.

Wasn’t it just a pretty jewel? Why were they freaking out?

“Abigail, you struck gold this time!” Azalea was jumping out and down in excitement.

“The Celestial Pearl is one of the three major sacred relics. It’s the best, something that numerous martial artists could only dream of!

“Its biggest use is in increasing the speed of cultivation by 10 to 100 times! With the Celestial Pearl, a loser could become a genius overnight!

“Of course, if a genius got their hands on this treasure, their power would be unimaginable!

“It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that once the Celestial Pearl appears, there will be a

bloodbath in the martial world!”

By the end of her explanation, her face was flushed.

1/3

This prized treasure in front of them could make someone a whole new person and achieve great heights!

Who wouldn’t be envious?

“Huh, it’s that powerful?” Abigail was shocked and found it hard to comprehend the

situation.

She’d assumed that it was some kind of decorative jewelry. She didn’t think it was such a

big deal.

“Abigail, remember, you can’t tell anyone about the Celestial Pearl. Or else, there’ll be consequences!” Dustin warned her sternly.

Even he couldn’t help but feel a desire for this treasure.

“Sir, this is too precious. I can’t take care of it. You should take it.”

Abigail was a little scared, so she handed the Celestial Pearl to Dustin without a second

thought.

“Abigail, you-!” Azalea’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Was that girl stupid? Did she give away this treasure that could change one’s fate that

others desperately search for?

Even a fool wouldn’t do this!

“You silly girl, you’re the one who followed the writings, so the Celestial Pearl naturally belongs to you. You keep it.” Dustin smiled and pushed her hand back.

“What?” Azalea was once again dumbfounded.

She thought Dustin would be overjoyed, but he unexpectedly turned it down.

Was he also stupid?

“Sir, you’re more talented than me. You would use it better.” Abigail shoved it to him again.

“If I use it now, I won’t improve much. A beginner like you needs it to increase your cultivation speed.” Dustin pushed it back.

“I don’t want it, you take it!”

“Don’t be silly, keep it!”

“I don’t even want it!”

“You need it!”

The both of them pushed it back and forth. In the end, they got so worked up that they

almost fought.

At the side, Azalea’s lips twitched. She looked at the scene before her, not knowing how to

feel about it.

Did they think this was a game?

This was a fucking sacred relic of the martial world!

This treasure made countless martial artists crazy with desire!

Could the two of them at least show it some respect?!

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?
