An Understated Dominance Chapter 514
Jessica had always believed her husband, but the result at the moment had left her completely stunned. "Hector, look at what you have done!" Trent was exasperated. "Y—you son of a bitch! You're not worthy to be the patriarch!" Flying into a rage, Jacob threw a punch at Hector's face.Such a scandal was going to bring extreme humiliation to the entire family. "Dad, you ..." Knitting her brows, Natasha wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in her throat. At first, she firmly believed that her father had been framed. However, looking at the pieces of irrefutable evidence now, she was at a loss as to how to defend him. Even Hector was inexplicably shocked. It was indeed his face that appeared in the video. On top of that, the way that person dressed up was also just like his."Did I really kill someone after getting drunk?" Hector muttered inwardly. At the thought of that, Hector coughed up a mouthful of blood, not able to withstand the shock. His face was ashen white
An Understated Dominance Chapter 515
The fact that Hector was arrested caused quite a stir among the members of the Harmon family.Everyone was rushed off their feet, using whatever connections they had to prove Hector innocent. Hector was the patriarch of the Harmons; he represented the family. If he was really charged with murder, not only would he be ruined, but the whole Harmon family would also be terribly criticized by the public. After giving out the order, Natasha called some of the trustworthy people to her room to discuss the countermeasures. Not everyone in the family stood on the same side. Trent and Jacob harbored their own thoughts. She naturally didn't trust them. "What do you think about this matter?" Natasha asked, glancing around."Could it be that Dad got sloshed for real, so he ..." Ruth trailed off.Before Ruth saw the video, she was sure that her father was not the kind of person who would commit such a crime. However, now that the evidence was right before her eyes, she couldn't help but doub

"Azalea?" Natasha arched her brow. "Do you know her?""If I guessed it right, it was her who disguised herself as Celeste," Dustin said. The fragrance lingering on the silver hairpin was exactly the same as that of the woman from that day."It's her?" Natasha frowned slightly. "Could it be she's the one behind this?""We'll know more about it after I meet up with her tonight." Dustin narrowed his eyes. Since that person had invited him out, it was clear that she must have known something."This woman is full of guile and good at using poison. Do you think this is a trap?" Natasha was worried. "Don't worry. Even if it's a lion's den, I'll be able to come out unscathed." Dustin smiled faintly. "No, it's too dangerous for you to go alone. I'll send a group of shadow guards to protect you," Natasha said with a solemn expression.The Dark Lord's disciple was nowhere near kind. Natasha didn't want Dustin to risk his life.With how insistent she was, Dustin didn't refuse her anymor

"Whoa, I've never seen such a hot body before!""I don't need to look at her face. Her fair and slender legs alone are enough to get me hooked for a year!" "Damn, I can't take it anymore! She is fucking seductive!"The moment the veiled woman showed up, all the black-clad men had a hard time holding back their lusts. The sexy curves of her figure were flawless, especially her wonderfully-proportioned legs. They were literally perfect for those with foot and leg fetishes.Rubbing his chin, Steven ogled at her. "Hey, beauty. Are you the owner of this restaurant?" "That's right. What do you want to eat?" The woman wore a sweet smile and slowly walked up to them. "What a nice smell!" The men kept sniffing, immersing themselves in her fragrance that was tickling them pink. "Can I eat you?" Steven gave her a lascivious grin."Me?" The woman chuckled. "I'm a thorny person; I don't think you'll be able to stomach me.""It's okay. There is no rose without a thorn," he uttered, lic

"You—" Steven was seething. He spat out a mouthful of black blood and died on the spot. In three minutes, all the black-clad men collapsed to the floor and kicked the bucket."Miracle doctor, I've helped you get rid of all the nuisances. It's only two of us now." The veiled woman came over with a charming smile and sat beside Dustin. "Don't you think you should thank me for solving your problem?""Well, they were not really a problem to me. Let's get down to business. What's your motive for calling me here?" Dustin asked. "I'm just a weak lady; what kind of motives can I have? Don't think of me so badly." Azalea teased."If that's the case, tell me. Who framed Hector? And where is the killer?" Dustin cut right to the chase. "Nothing comes for free in this world. You've got to pay a price if you want to know the answer to that." Azalea stretched out her finger and stroked his chin intimately."What do you want?" Dustin pushed her hand away."Can I have you?" Azalea shot him a

"What are you talking about?" Dustin tightened his grip around Azalea's neck, suffocating her so hard that her face flushed. Without feeling any ounce of fear, Azalea smiled and said in a hoarse voice, "If I die, not only you won't be able to catch the murderer, but Natasha will also suffer. You'd better think about it properly.""Are you threatening me?" When Dustin narrowed his eyes, a touch of murderous intent was laced in his gaze."I dare not. This is just my advice to you." Azalea curled up the corners of her lips."What exactly do you want?" Dustin demanded coldly.Instead of saying anything, Azalea pointed at her neck. Her message was loud and clear.With a slight frown, Dustin still let go of her neck. Azalea slumped down on the floor in an instant and panted heavily. "It hurts. Miracle doctor, I was just joking. Why did you have to be so rough?" "I have no time to joke with you. You'd better tell me everything that you know." He shot her a piercing glare."Fine.

Natasha would definitely do whatever she could to save Hector, and her concern for her father would only make her fall into traps easily. At the thought of that, Dustin immediately took out his phone and dialed Natasha's number. However, the line couldn't get through."She's not picking up? In that case, it seems like the Grant family has made their move," Azalea remarked. "Miracle doctor, time is tight. You have to choose whether to go to the safe house to catch the murderer or to save Natasha. You can't have your cake and eat it too." "Only kids will choose. I want both!" As Dustin spoke, he made a hand gesture at the window. Soon, Isfrid hurriedly walked in with a few shadow guards."Mr. Rhys, we are at your command," Isfrid said respectfully.Dustin handed the piece of paper with the safe house's address to Isfrid. "This is where the murderer is hiding. Bring your men and head over there right now.""What about you, Mr. Rhys?""I have something else to do. Hurry up and

"What did you say?" Natasha knitted her brows. "Didn't you hear me? I said, take off your clothes!" Jayla repeated with her voice raised."Don't you go overboard!" Natasha's expression was cold. How could she possibly remove her clothes in public? That was extremely humiliating for her! "So what if I do?" Jayla sneered. "I hold something over you right now, and you got no choice but to listen to me!"This was the reason she sent Hector to jail—demeaning Natasha. Jayla muttered inwardly, "This is the price to pay for refusing to get married into the Grant family!"She needed to make Natasha suffer in order to vent her anger. "Jayla, you'd better not overstep the line," Natasha said in a deep voice."Natasha, haven't you figured out what the current situation is?" Jayla laughed wildly. "You're in my territory. Whatever happens to you depends on me. Hurry up and take off your clothes!""Take off!" "Take off!"The masked guests began to shout in excitement, and most of them

Mulder's body trembled, and he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood. His energy drained, and his entire being seemed to collapse.Dustin's finger flick had not only shattered his sword but also injured his internal organs. With the effects of the enhanced serum wearing off, Mulder was now back to his original state and completely spent.His once-powerful frame now shrank like a punctured balloon. He looked as if he had aged ten years in an instant. Mulder could no longer fight. Even standing up was a challenge."He's finished," Dustin said coolly, then looked at Warrick. "Now it's your turn.""Hmm?" Warrick frowned, and his expression turned serious.Dustin's display of strength earlier had made him feel a sense of crisis. If they fought head-on, there was no telling who would come out on top.But Warrick was just one step away from escaping West Lucozia, bound for Artea and a life of freedom and luxury. He had no intention of risking his life in battle unless he absolutely

"This is interesting." Dustin smirked as the dense barrage of swords came slashing down at him. In the blink of an eye, his figure dissolved into a wisp of smoke and vanished.A storm of sword shadows carrying the force that could split rivers and overturn seas crashed down on the fishing boat where he had just been standing. The entire vessel broke apart in an instant—some sinking into the depths while others drifted across the water."What? He dodged it?" Warrick's eyes flickered with surprise.Mulder's attack just now had been a 360-degree attack. Once caught in its range, there was no chance to dodge—only the option to endure. He couldn't understand how Dustin had managed to avoid it. Did he just teleport?"Hiding like a coward? What kind of warrior are you? Come fight me face-to-face."Frustrated after his attack missed again, Mulder grew desperate. His enhanced serum would only last for 15 minutes. If this dragged on, he'd collapse from exhaustion before Dustin even touche

"Oh? Are we going all out now?" Dustin smirked, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.Mulder, who had advanced to become a grandmaster martial artist through drugs, had a weak foundation. Even after taking the enhanced serum, he still posed no threat to Dustin. If Mulder were a hundred times stronger, he might just barely be able to fight Dustin.As the serum's effects pushed his body to the limit, Mulder suddenly let out a furious roar. His muscles swelled rapidly, and his bones cracked as they expanded. His body grew larger at an alarming rate, and his clothes tore apart under the strain.His six-foot frame stretched to nearly seven feet in mere moments as his body swelled to monstrous proportions. His face twisted fiercely, and his skin darkened as black scales surfaced.With another guttural growl, his roar turned beastlike. He grabbed his shredded shirt and ripped it away, exposing his broad chest covered in dark scales. A faint, eerie sheen flickered across their surface."D

Dustin's words made Mulder frown.Mulder knew all too well that Warrick was the kind of man who had no sense of loyalty or honor. If Warrick could kill his own personal guards without hesitation, what would stop him from killing a stranger? Mulder was certain that the moment things went south, Warrick would be the first to flee. Given the choice, he'd never willingly risk his life as Warrick's sacrificial pawn. But now, there was no turning back.With his undercover identity exposed and him helping Warrick escape, Mulder became a sworn enemy of West Lucozia. His name was now on the most-wanted list.Tonight was their best chance to escape. If they missed it, finding another way out would be nearly impossible.There was only one path left for him—kill whoever stood in his way and make it onto that escape boat."Enough talk, punk. Let's see what you're really made of," Mulder said.After weighing his options, he gritted his teeth and finally decided to draw his longsword. His fig

"You had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next," Dustin said.With a slight squeeze of his fingers, the steel blades clamped between them shattered with a sharp clang.Before the two Hall of Gods members could even react, Dustin waved his hand.The two men were sent flying as if they'd been hit by a truck, hurtling over 30 feet through the air. Blood sprayed from their mouths and noses before they hit the ground. They were critically injured and on the verge of death.Dustin slowly turned his head and looked at the man who had just tried to ambush him.The man glanced at the broken sword in his hand, then at Dustin, who looked utterly unfazed. He hesitated for a split second—then bolted.With a powerful leap, he dove straight for the sea. He knew Dustin's strength was on a completely different level. There was no chance of outrunning him on land, so the only hope was to disappear into the water.It might have worked—if not for what happened next.Just before he hit

"You're not a fisherman? Who the hell are you?"Mulder's guard shot up the moment he got a clear look at the young man's face.Fishermen who spent their days at sea were usually tanned from the sun, but this one had a fair complexion. It felt a little strangeNoticing something was off, the men behind Mulder drew their blades and fixed their sharp gazes on the fisherman.The so-called fisherman standing guard wasn't just anyone—it was Dustin, who had been waiting for them all along.Since his plan was set in motion, he'd been stationed there from morning until midnight. After what felt like an eternity, his targets had finally arrived."Isn't it obvious? I'm here to capture you."Dustin rose from the deck and rolled his shoulders before speaking in an even tone. "If you don't want to die, surrender now. Otherwise, it'll be too late.""Watch out! It could be an ambush." Mulder swiftly pulled out his dagger. His sharp gaze scanned the surroundings for any sign of hidden troops.

As night fell, Warrick sat motionless in his room as he tried to calm his mind through meditation. He had always been able to clear his mind with ease. But tonight, no matter how hard he tried, focus eluded him. A restless unease settled over him and refused to let him relax.Nearly two hours passed before Mulder's scouts finally returned. This time, they brought good news.The smuggling route they had scouted was completely safe, with no signs of an ambush. The West Lucozia army had yet to discover this potential escape route.Once everything was confirmed, Mulder let out a breath of relief. Warrick, too, finally felt the weight lift from his chest."Since the route is safe, we should set out immediately to avoid any unexpected complications." Warrick said. He had no intention of waiting any longer. He was a wanted man, and every moment in West Lucozia increased his chances of capture. There was no telling when the army might surround him. Only by escaping to Thaloria would he

After a hearty meal, the burly Warrick sprawled lazily onto the bed and dozed off. He slept soundly till dusk, lost in a deep dream. When the sky was painted in brilliant hues of the setting sun, only then did he wake up leisurely.The exhaustion from the previous day seemed to have melted away. He felt invigorated, refreshed, and in high spirits.At that moment, Leigh had already set the table in the hall with quiet efficiency. Compared to the first meal, this spread was far more lavish.At the center of the table sat a whole roasted pig. Its golden-brown skin glistened with a rich, crispy sheen. The mouthwatering aroma filled the room, making it impossible not to crave a bite.Warrick had never been one for formalities. The moment he saw the feast, he didn't hesitate. He strode over, took a seat, and started digging in. He ate with zero restraint without sparing a single thought for Mulder, who was still out gathering intel.After a while, half of the roast pig was gone. His fac

"Who is it?" Warrick's grip tightened around the hilt of his steel blade. His eyes, sharp and alert, were like those of a startled predator—full of caution and menace.For the past few days, he had been on edge, like a cornered animal. He barely slept and was constantly on high alert, fearing danger would strike at any moment.The door slowly creaked open. An elderly man with gray hair stepped inside with a tray of fruit and pastries in both hands.Before he could even register what was happening, a flash of cold steel appeared, and Warrick's blade was at the elderly man's throat.The elderly man trembled with fear. The tray slipped from his grasp, and fruit and pastries scattered on the floor."Easy, Sir Prescott. He's one of us." Mulder stepped forward and pressed down on the flat of Warrick's blade with a finger. He smiled and explained, "His name's Leigh Houston. He's mute and has served the Hall of Gods for years. He keeps watch over this tunnel entrance and has never slipp
