Chapter 1048 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
Dustinâs remark caught Livia, Leah, and Quinton off guard, leaving them puzzled.
âHey, what are you babbling about? Whoâs going to die?â Leah raised an eyebrow and wondered if he had lost his mind.
âAre you jealous of Dylan, dude? Youâre saying nonsense now because you know heâs better than you,â Quinton remarked.
âHmph, you know youâre worthless, yet you badmouth someone youâre jealous of. Youâre just a petty bastard!â Leah could not stand petty people like Dustin.
âHey, if youâve got something to say, say it to Dylanâs face. Whatâs the point of talking behind someoneâs back?â Quinton taunted.
âYeah, be upfront and confront Dylan like a real man, not a coward,â Leah added.
While Livia remained silent, she shook her head in frustration. She found Dustinâs behavior irritating.
Ignoring their remarks, Dustin picked up a wine bottle and weighed it in his hand. Then, he shouted, âDylan Harmon!â
Dylan turned to locate the source of the voice. Suddenly, a wine bottle crashed onto his head.
A loud âCrash!â echoed as the bottle shattered, showering him in red wine. Stunned, he staggered. backward and touched his bleeding head.
The unexpected scene shocked everyone, as nobody dared challenge the Harmon family.
At that moment, Livia, Leah, and Quinton froze in fear.
They had witnessed Dustin pick up the bottle and throw it toward Dylan, but they couldnât wrap their mind around it.
Dylan Harmon was a prominent figure and came from an influential family. He was a high- ranking commander of the Dark Panther Cavalry and would become the next General.
In Balerno, he was a star.
It was reckless to provoke someone of Dylanâs status They wondered if Dustin had a death wish
âY-you attacked Dylan Harmon? Are you crazy?â Leah was furious
She had provoked Dustin, thinking he wouldnât fight back. But now, he had responded to their taunts in such a manner
âDude, youâre as good as deadâ Quinton glared at Dustin
Quinton stepped back, wanting to avoid any trouble with the Harmon family. He muttered, â1 shouldnât have sat at this table.â
All eyes were on their table. Even Livia distanced herself from Dustin. She was fuming, seeing him as nothing more than a troublemaker.
âSo, it is you, Dustin Rhys!â Dylan gazed fixated on him, his face darkening with anger.
Trent, Jacob, and the others were also seething with rage.
It was supposed to be a good day for the Harmon family, but it was ruined. Dustin had crashed the event uninvited, causing a scene.
âDylan Harmon! Today is the day you meet your end,â Dustin declared.
