All Chapters of An Understated Dominance: Chapter 701 - Chapter 710

Dahlia was going over some documents while drinking coffee. Suddenly, her office door was pushed open. Florence and Julie rushed in energetically, their expressions filled with happiness. "Mom? Didn't you go back to Swinton already? Why are you back so soon?" Dahlia was confused."Dahlia, tell me truthfully, have you been chosen as the next matriarch?" Florence asked with a sense of urgency."How did you find out?" Dahlia was surprised."Hahaha … It is real!" Florence was extremely excited. "Last night, your grandfather told me you were going to be the matriarch of the Nicholsons. I didn't believe him at first, but I can't believe you've come this far! This is amazing news!""Congratulations on your achievement, Dahlia! From now on, you are the queen of the aristocrats!" Julie flattered. While she was jealous and unyielding toward Dahlia in the past, it has now been replaced with flattery. The Glenstead Nicholsons were the most wealthy and influential aristocratic family, and D

The man took out his phone as he spoke and played a video for everyone present. In the video, Hank was seen sitting across from the man at a cafe. Their voices could be heard, and they were discussing their plan to kill James and frame Dustin. Hank even paid a deposit on the spot. The entire process was recorded clearly, leaving everyone dumbstruck after watching it. Florence, who was hostile earlier, was in disbelief. The sarcastic Julie was also rendered speechless. They had been so sure that Dustin was the killer, yet he turned out to be innocent. For a moment, they couldn't accept the truth. As for Hank, he stood frozen in his spot, his face drained of color. He thought they would have nothing against him as long as he didn't confess. He didn't expect the cunning guy to secretly record their interaction as a precaution."See that!" Nelson was indignant. "All of you kept suspecting Sir Rhys and even hurled multiple insults at him. The truth is out now! What else do you have to

Dahlia thought that would be enough to change Alma's mind. However, in the end, instead of watching the video, Alma threw the phone on the ground. She stomped on the phone hard, shattering it completely."The evidence is gone now," Alma said impassively. Dahlia and the others' expressions darkened instantly upon witnessing the scene. How could she openly destroy the evidence to cover up for the murderer? Where was justice in this? "Madam Alma, what do you mean by this?" Dahlia frowned. "You saw everything. Is there a problem?" Alma asked with a scrutinizing expression."If you insist on doing this, then I'll have to report it to Grandpa Regulus." Dahlia's expression was frosty. "Do you think you are worthy of using the patriarch's name to threaten me?" Alma scoffed. "Why not? Sir Regulus himself has appointed my daughter as his successor, and she will rise as the new matriarch of the Nicholson family soon. When that time comes, all of you will have to show deference to her

"Dismissed?" Everyone was shocked by Alma's announcement."Do you have the authority to do that? My daughter was personally appointed by the patriarch of the Nicholson family! You have no right to dismiss her!" Florence was furious."Exactly! Ever since Dahlia assumed her position as chairman, she has brought in great revenue for the company! She managed to bring in over 500 million in profit within just a month! What right do you have to dismiss her from her position?" Julie was extremely pissed by Alma's actions.Before Dahlia became chairman of Nicholson Corp., it had always been in a state of loss. It was only through Dahlia's hard work and determination to reform the company that it was brought back to life. Now that it was finally starting to pick up, Alma was going to dismiss her as she wished. How ungrateful!"I am now standing in as head of the family, so what I say goes! None of you have the right to interfere with my decisions!" Alma bellowed."Y—you … you're too much!"

"I see. But why did you get Hank to murder James, then? Isn't that unnecessary?" Julian wondered why his grandmother would waste such effort to have James dead. James was an unimportant side character, and it was a waste of resources to even deal with him."James? I don't even know who that is. Why would I want to kill him? I suppose Hank decided to take things into his own hands and just get rid of him. Anyway, that's not important. It doesn't affect us in the least what happened to him." Alma waved her hand dismissively.As she spoke, she suddenly shuddered, and her breathing became erratic. A piercing pain hit her and spread out across her entire body."Are you alright, Grandmother?" Julian immediately noticed that Alma didn't look good."It's nothing new. Go and get me my medicine from the car. Hurry," Alma instructed. "Yes, Grandmother." Julian dared not hesitate even for a moment and quickly ran over to the Rolls-Royce parked in front of them before he started rummaging aro
