An Understated Dominance Chapter 390
As night descended, there was a commotion at the Nicholson Villa as the entrance door was busted down. Then, Gloria and her bodyguards from the Nicholson Family barged in pompously. Two men, who were more than six feet tall, were eye-catching. The two guards shared some resemblance, and the muscles on their bodies were chiseled like rock cliffs. They stood there like two huge mountains that evoked fear."Dahlia Nicholson! Get out right now!" Gloria yelled at the top of her lungs when she stepped foot in the house. Her face was still bruised from Dustin's beating in the morning, looking terrifying, especially with the awful scowl."Oh! If it isn't Madam Gloria? What brings you here?" Florence emerged from the kitchen but jumped at the sight of the entourage."I'm asking you now. Where are Dahlia and Dustin?" Gloria hissed through gritted teeth."They haven't been back since the morning. I have no idea where they went!" Florence replied meekly."You have no idea? Are you trying to h

Was the bodyguard made of steel? Even a knife could not penetrate his skin!"Hmph! Cougar is a martial artist who's at the height of internal energy cultivation. Do you seriously think you can hurt him with that toy knife of yours?" Dakota scoffed in disdain. Gloria had called in the two martial arts experts who worked for her to make up for her loss of dignity earlier. No matter how powerful Dustin was, he was destined to be defeated."Get lost!" With a slap, Cougar subdued Florence. Gloria strutted up arrogantly and rested her walking stick on Florence's face, saying, "I'm giving you a chance to get Dahlia and Dustin to come home. If you don't, I'll break the legs of your son!""Have mercy on me! I'll make the call right now!" Florence frantically scrambled for her phone and called Dahlia, specifically reminding her daughter to bring Dustin home as well. However, she kept the reason from Dahlia, fearing that Dustin wouldn't show up. That would only land the whole family in greater

Edwin pulled the trigger, sending a bullet in Gloria's direction. At the life-or-death moment, the bulky Cougar positioned himself to shield her, arms crossed over his chest in a protective stance. At the same time, two heavy metal rings slid out of his sleeve.The sound of metal clanking was accompanied by flying sparks as the bullet was sent flying astray after it came into contact with the metal rings. Cougar sneered as he stood in front of Gloria like a mountain. He clearly did not fear Edwin. Bullets from an average pistol were not a threat when he was at the height of internal energy cultivation, thanks to his speedy response in comparison to that of an average shooter. He could either dodge the bullet or stop it with his weapons. It was impossible to hurt him as long as it wasn't an ambush from the back, and that was the power of a trained martial artist!"D—did he stop the bullet?" Florence was shocked once more. At that point, they wondered if Cougar was even human for blo

The short guy grinned as he flung Cougar's body against the wall, where the body left a bloody trail."Cougar!" Tarragon hugged the body of his little brother and seethed in vengeance. "How dare you kill my brother? I'll tear you into pieces!" Then, he lunged at the short guy like a crazed beast, only to have the short guy kick him in the chest.Tarragon seemed to have been run over by a truck. He was flung aside and fell hard onto the ground, where he coughed up blood. His rib had collapsed.The Nicholsons gasped at the second casualty. They knew that Tarragon was way stronger than Cougar, but even the elder brother was defeated after an attack from the short guy. That left them wondering about his origins."W—who exactly are you?" Tarragon pressed on his chest as blood oozed from his nose and mouth. He knew his opponent must have been a divine-level martial artist to win with just a move."I'm Hillcrest, a gold-tier assassin in the Bounty League." The short guy grinned widely.

"What did you say?" Dahlia frowned at him."Was it not clear enough? I shall repeat myself then." The smile disappeared from Edwin's face. "I will only spare one person. Either that old woman or Dustin. Now, it's your turn to decide who's living and who's dying.""Dahlia! Just let Dustin go! It's your chance to redeem yourself!" Dakota started yelling."Right! If you save me today, I will forgive your wrongs and even help you secure the chairman position!" Gloria dangled a promise as well. She lost her mind at that moment because of Edwin's mercilessness. He could not be reasoned with, and he would take any life without hesitation. She still had a lot to live for and refused to be sacrificed."Edwin Hummer! We do not have grudges against you! Why do you have to come after us?" Dahlia frowned deeply."You don't?" Edwin laughed maniacally, throwing his head back. "Oh, Dahlia Nicholson, why don't you ask the people around you about the grudges between us?"After Edwin's son and daug

To Tarragon, the fact that Edwin assembled the best to take down an average man like Dustin, was rather puzzling."After all the hoo-ha, it turns out that their target is Dustin! Thank God." Dakota let out a sigh of relief in secret. There was a saying: the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Since Edwin shared the same goal as the Nicholsons in wanting to get rid of Dustin, she believed they should not be stuck in a confrontation."Evil defeats evil. Dustin Rhys, you'll be dead today!" Gloria chuckled gleefully. She had heard of the Bounty League and understood the severity of having a gold-tier assassin here. A humble doctor like Dustin would never defend himself against one."You really splurged to get me killed." Dustin shook his head, appearing fearless at the threat."I'm willing to give up my family fortune as long as I get my revenge." Edwin sniggered."I'm afraid you'll be disappointed today. This bunch can't kill me," Dustin replied."Can't they? Wow, you jerk. Look at you,
An Understated Dominance Chapter 396
The Nicholsons stared at the three gold-tier assassins before shirting their gazes at the expressionless Dustin with great alarm. No one had anticipated Dustin to be so powerful. If they had not witnessed the scene with their eyes, they would have laughed at the idea of a good-for-nothing person being talented in martial arts."Is there something wrong with my eyes? When did the trash become a hero?" James widened his eyes in disbelief. His impression of Dustin was that he was a kept man who only learned a few useless martial arts tricks that were no match for the top assassins. However, Dustin's performance shattered James' preconception. He was shocked to learn that his ex-brother-in-law was a martial arts expert."Heavens! Is that really Dustin?" Florence was equally astonished. Even though she was clueless about the gold-tier assassins from the Bounty League, she was aware of the capabilities of Tarragon and Cougar. Logically, Dustin beat Hillcrest in terms of expertise, which wo

"Now! Kneel down immediately!" Edwin bellowed at Dustin. Dustin narrowed his eyes. "What if I don't?""No? Then I'll take it out on her!" Edwin grabbed Gloria and pointed the gun at her temple. Knowing that Dustin was powerful, he needed to get himself a human shield."Edwin Hummer! You'd better be careful! That's Madam Gloria from the Nicholson Family!" Dustin's expression sank."Oh, she's your Madam Gloria? Sounds like you care a lot about her, don't you?" Edwin chuckled. "Listen to what I say if you don't want her to die!""Dustin! What are you standing there for? Quick! Kneel!" Dakota urged him frantically. "You punk! Kneel! Do you want me dead?" Gloria's face paled."Madam Gloria, please be patient. I'll save you real soon." Dustin faked an angry expression and challenged Edwin, "Edwin Hummer, just come at me! If you lay a finger on her, I won't let this slip!""Oh, you don't know what it means to be desperate." Enraged, Edwin shot Gloria in one of her knees. She yelped
