All Chapters of An Understated Dominance: Chapter 1331 - Chapter 1340

"Mr. Swanson, you seem sincere in wanting the formula. How about this? I'll take a loss and cover the extra costs. I'll only need the first ten herbs. How does that sound?" Dustin put on a reluctant front. "10 herbs won't do, either!" Zion maintained his grim expression. "Then how many will you agree to?" Dustin sought a compromise."One." Zion raised one finger."I can only give you one!""One herb?" Dustin frowned. "Mr. Swanson, is this some kind of joke? I don't think negotiation works like this.""Your Dew Balm formula is only worth one top-grade precious herb. That's all I can offer." Zion was getting impatient. If Dustin had merely asked for money, he could have managed the situation. However, Dustin was throwing out exorbitant demands and treating him like a fool. "Since you're not cooperating, let's forget about today. I'm sure there will be someone else who would be interested." Dustin didn't waste his breath and prepared to leave. "Stand right there!" Zion sla

"Ms. Welch, what can I do for you?" Mr. Yaxley approached her eagerly with a big smile on his face. "Let me ask you, is it true that we have a Dragon Panax?""Indeed we do. It's in the vault," Mr. Yaxley replied honestly."Great, bring it to me now," Eleanor instructed."Ms. Welch, what are you going to do with it?" Mr. Yaxley tried to ask."Why do you care? I have my reasons!" Eleanor replied impatiently."Ms. Welch, I must confess that this item is a part of Mr. Welch Senior's precious collection. I'm afraid I cannot simply hand it over without his permission," Mr. Yaxley explained with his head lowered."Just bring it to me for now. I'll talk to Grandpa about it later," Eleanor insisted."This … doesn't seem right." Mr. Yaxley was put in a difficult spot."Hey! You won't even listen to me now?" Eleanor glared at him. "I told you to bring it to me! Why so much nonsense? Go!" As she spoke, she gave his backside a swift kick. "Please, hold on, Ms. Welch." Mr. Yaxley was l

"The Iceheart Lotus and the Emerald Corolla," Dustin listed the herbs he needed.The Welch family was a notch above the Swanson family in terms of power and influence. As long as they put some effort into it, they should be able to get their hands on those herbs."Young man, you've got quite the appetite for good things, haven't you? The herbs you mentioned are precious herbs that are extremely valuable! Aren't you a bit greedy to be asking for three precious herbs in return for a formula?" Joanne's brow knitted together in displeasure."I can't say the same for other formulas, Mrs. Welch. But the formula for Dew Balm is definitely worth as much. The profit it can bring the Welch family certainly exceeds the value of those herbs," Dustin guaranteed."Is that so?" Joanne's gaze on Dustin was sharp as she tried to read his expression.However, there wasn't a hint of guilt in his eyes. He simply looked back at her boldly. And that was enough to tell Joanne that he wasn't lying. "

Ezra was a typical player who would never change his ways. Eleanor should consider herself lucky for discovering his true colors before they got married. Otherwise, it would have been too late."Of course, I know that I should let go. But not without making him pay first!" Eleanor gritted her teeth, full of resentment."How dare he treat me like this? I'm not letting him off easily! "I'll make him regret messing with me! I'll make him understand that losing me is the biggest loss of his god-damned life!""What do you have in mind?" Dustin questioned."Since he's cheating on me with other women, I'll get myself a man. I'll humiliate and piss him off!" Eleanor sniffled. All of a sudden, her gaze landed on Dustin. "You'll be my boyfriend from now on, Dustin. I'll show him that he isn't the only one who can mess around!""What?" Dustin was startled. "Are you kidding, Ms. Welch? We barely know each other.""So what? Do you think I'm not good enough for you?" Eleanor huffed."I'

The most infuriating thing was that Eleanor showed up in front of Ezra and her friend with benefits! That was a blatant provocation!"Eleanor, why have I never met this best friend of yours?" Ezra took a deep breath to suppress his anger."Do I need your permission to have friends now?" Eleanor asked flatly. "Besides, you have some girl friends whom I've never met before, too.""I—" Ezra wanted to retort but found nothing he could say. He knew what this was about now. This woman was intentionally pissing him off to get back at him."What a rare occasion that we're all gathered here today, Eleanor. Here, have a drink."Seeing that things were starting to look ugly, Sheehan forced a smile and tried to diffuse the situation."I don't drink." Eleanor refused frostily."Oh, that's alright. You can just have some fruit juice, then. Anything that suits your taste."Sheehan chuckled deferentially before turning to give a waiter some orders. A while later, the waiter returned with a
