An Understated Dominance Chapter 440 by Marina Vittori

“Ten million?” The crowd exchanged astonished glances when they heard him. Ordinary citizens couldn’t even dream of earning that much money in their lifetime. How could Dustin make such a bold statement?

“Do you even have that kind of money?” Abigail asked, shocked and anxious.

“Come on, don’t show off when you don’t even have that much money. You’ll only end up embarrassing yourself.” Mike said scornfully, giving Dustin a disdainful look. Although he dared not challenge the chubby man again, he still had the audacity to look down on Dustin. There was no way he believed a shabby–looking country bumpkin could win against someone as wealthy as Chubster.

“You’re just spouting nonsense to show off, right? Well, let’s see how this ends!” Nina snorted, not believing that someone like Dustin would have ten million dollars.

“Who the fuck said that?” Surprised, Chubster glanced around the room frostily.

“It was me.” Dustin stood up slowly, his stare icy.

“Are you challenging me?” Chubster sneered. “Are you sure a beggar like you has ten million dollars?”

“And what if I do?” Dustin retorted.

“Then you can have the girl. If you don’t, you’ll have to get on your knees in front of everyone and bark like a

dog!” Chubster taunted.

Upon hearing that, the crowd roared enthusiastically. After all, the show had gone from just competing with

money to verbal insults.

“Why don’t we just let this go? Fighting against someone like him is pointless.” Abigail advised Dustin. Truth be told, she doubted Dustin as well. After all, he wouldn’t be staying in her home if he had ten million dollars.

“Of course not. He challenged me, so how can I back down now?” Dustin replied nonchalantly.

“But this is ten million dollars we’re talking about, not one million!” Abigail cried, feeling desperate. She

dreaded the thought of seeing Dustin bark like a dog for the chubby man.

“Don’t worry. It’s just ten million dollars. No biggie,” Dustin answered with a smile.

“Do you think you’re a billionaire? Just ten million dollars? Yeah, right.” Nina snorted. How could a country bumpkin like him have ten million dollars when even someone as rich as Mike was struggling?

“Let him be. We should just let him keep acting.” Mike smiled cooly.

“Hey! What are you guys mumbling about over there?” Chubster shouted. “Are you going to do it or not? Get lost if you’re not. You’re ruining my mood!”

“Who says I’m not going to?” Dustin smirked. “But we should make it fair. The person who loses has to kneel and bark like a dog. How about that?”

“Are you trying to scare me? Ha, you’re on!” Chubster retorted boldly. “I’ll get down on my knees and start barking if you can produce ten million dollars.”

“We have a deal.” Dustin smiled and pulled out his card, tossing it to the owner. “I’d like to treat that lady to ten million dollars.”

“Are you serious?” The owner gripped the card, bewildered. His entire establishment wasn’t even worth that much money.

“Why would I lie? Swipe it. The PIN is 666666,” Dustin replied calmly.

“Alright, then.” The owner gulped and ran to the counter to process the request.

Chubster started feeling nervous when he saw how confident Dustin was. “Don’t tell me that shabby kid

actually has that much money,” he thought.

The rest of the crowd also began exchanging uncertain glances.

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.
