An Understated Dominance Chapter 1038 by Marina Vittori

“What are you two whispering about?” Dahlia was confused by the woman in front of her. Why was she sighing and then giggling? Was she out of her mind?

“Nothing, nothing. Perhaps I’ve mistaken you for someone else. I’m sorry.” Natasha pursed her lips after she apologized. Well, Dahlia had lost her memories after all. Natasha couldn’t be so petty as to make things difficult for someone who’d lost her memories, could she?

“You’re weird.” Dahlia frowned. Though she did not know Natasha, she had an unpleasant feeling about her.

She looked past Natasha and at Dustin. “Hang on … You look quite familiar. Have I seen you somewhere?”

“Hmm?” Natasha was immediately on guard when she heard that.

Didn’t Dustin say that she’d lost her memories? Could she have remembered him?

Was she deceiving them?

“You remember me?” Dustin was surprised.

“Oh, I remember now. You were the insurance agent.” Dahlia immediately recalled where she had

met him after giving it some thought.

This man had gone to the hospital to promote his insurance packages. But Florence had driven

him away back then.

“Yes, insurance agent. That’s right.” Dustin nodded.

It seemed like she didn’t remember the past anymore. But that was good. They could now live

their own lives.

“Hmph! And I thought he was someone powerful! Turns out he’s just an insurance agent!”

“How dare a social underclass like him slap Ms. Forrest! He just dug his own grave!”

“I have a net worth in the billions, yet I dare not act haughty here. How dare an insurance agent

behave so arrogantly? Unbelievable!”

An uproar broke out among the onlookers when they heard about Dustin’s status.

Sean, Mrs. Lansky, Mrs. Prewitt, and the rest looked at him in contempt. They looked at him as if

he was a fool.

They were wary before, thinking that Dustin may have an influential background. How else would he dare to slap Ms. Forrest?

But at the end of the day, he was just pretending to be all that.

“Ms. Dahlia, are you on close terms with this insurance agent?” Elena asked.

“I’ve only met him once. We’re not close.” Dahlia shook her head.

“That’s good to know.” Elena discreetly let out a sigh of relief.

She looked at Dustin with malice.

If Dahlia had said she was close with Dustin, she might have to hold back. But since they weren’t, she would get back at Dustin.

“I advise you to apologize to Ms. Forrest immediately. You might escape this mess if you do,”

Dahlia said.

“Apologize? She does not deserve an apology,” Dustin responded calmly.

“What?” Dahlia frowned.

“That was a friendly warning. Ms. Forrest has a solid background.

“She isn’t someone you can afford to offend. There’s no point ruining your life for the sake of ego.

It’s not worth it.”

The elite circles in Oakvale were considered unreachable to ordinary people. They would only

meet a terrible end if they happened to offend any of the scions of influential families.

“Thanks for your advice, but I don’t care about them.” Dustin shrugged indifferently.

“Have I not made myself clear? Your life is in danger now that you’ve offended Ms. Forrest!” Dahlia

said frostily.

Why was this man so tactless?

A Man Like None Other Chapter 2820

Gregory calmed himself and asked, "Mr. Chance, let's not talk about him. How was your evaluation?" "I passed the evaluation," replied Jared. "Which level are you? Is it Third Level Top Tier?" asked Gregory. "Fifth Level Top Tier, actually," said Jared with a laugh. "Fifth Level Top Tier?" Gregory was stunned to hear that. He's at the same alchemist level as I am! Everyone knows how powerful Jared is, but I didn't expect his alchemy skill to be equally strong. He's truly omnipotent! "Mr. Stark, what is your verdict regarding the poison in my friend's body?" Jared inquired. Gregory regained his senses and said guiltily, "After a thorough examination, we still could not find a cure. I'm so sorry about that..." "It's all right, Mr. Stark. There's no need to blame yourself. This poison is indeed very unique. I will take my time to find a solution!" In truth, Jared was also very disappointed when he heard that Gregory could not do anything about the poison. "Mr. Chance, we might not be able to cure your friend, but I know of someone who definitely can." "Who's that?" asked Jared hurriedly. "The count of Jipsdale, who is also an advanced alchemist, will surely be able to help your friend," answered Gregory. Jared perked up when he heard that. "Mr. Stark, can we trouble you to bring us to meet the count of Jipsdale?" However, Gregory let out a bitter laugh. "Mr. Chance, you don't know this, but not everyone can meet the count of Jipsdale. Even I have never met them. I don't even have any idea if the count is a man or a woman! Basically, not many people have met the count of Jipsdale because Mr. Sparrow is the one who manages the county." Jared frowned when he heard that. "Is there nothing we can do about it? How can we meet the count?" "Mr. Chance, the count of Jipsdale promised to give a special prize to the winner in this year's Alchemist Fair. If you can win the competition, you will get a chance to meet the count. Then, there may be help for your friend," explained Gregory. Jared nodded. No matter what, he had to be the winner at this year's Alchemist Fair! Gregory then introduced Jared to a few of his seniors. The elders of Solaris Sect were also very impressed with Jared's ability to attain Fifth Level Top Tier in the alchemist evaluation despite his young age. After a brief chat, Jared stood up and planned to leave with Yuven. However, Pearl returned at that time. "Brat, why won't you obey me? Didn't I tell you before not to have anything to do with Roderick?" The moment Gregory saw Pearl, he started lecturing her. Pearl bowed her head and kept quiet. She even appeared aggrieved. "Mr. Stark, Ms. Pearl is still young. Once she gets a little older, things may get better," advised Jared. "Pearl, your master is doing this for your own good. Roderick isn't a good man," one of the elders chimed in. "Master, I know my mistake. I won't do it again. Let me make some coffee for all of you. Please don't be angry." With that, Pearl went to make coffee. When Gregory saw her meek demeanor, he understood there was no point in remaining angry. Letting out a sigh, he sat back down in his seat. After taking in the way Pearl was walking, Jared knew she was not a little girl anymore. Then again, it had nothing to do with him.
