Chapter 1511 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
Looking at Dahliaâs familiar face from the past, Dustin took a deep breath and said coldly, âDahlia Nicholson, Iâm not being stubborn. Youâre the one who thinks you can never be wrong.
âWhat makes you think everything is my fault? And why do you assume I canât afford to offend these people?â
Dahlia responded with a frown, â Things have already come to this, and youâre still trying to argue? Iâve already investigated the matter, and itâs clearly your fault.
âDonât think you can act arrogantly in Oakvale just because you have someone backing you. This place is full of hidden talents and influential people. Itâs not a place where you can run wild!â
âForget it. Iâm too lazy to continue this argument. Think whatever you want.â Dustin shook his head, feeling tired.
There was nothing left for him to complain about when she was exactly the same as she was before she lost her memory.
âDustin, whatâs with your attitude? Iâm giving you sound advice, but you just wonât listen! Will you only regret it when you land yourself in real trouble? âDahlia lectured.
She had been extremely merciful, giving him various opportunities in hopes that he would come to his senses. Unfortunately, the results were the same.
âAbigail, neutralize the poison and let them leave. Donât let them interfere with our business,â Dustin said impatiently, unwilling to be involved with them any longer.
He felt frustrated every time he encountered Dahlia. It seemed like the two of them were just not meant to be.
âAlright, Iâve played enough anyway. Iâll let you off today.â Abigail smiled and waved her hand gently. A mist entered Scottâs nostrils.
The pain-stricken Scott quickly found relief, but he looked extremely disheveled. His hair was a mess, he was drenched in sweat, and his face was covered in blood. He had lost his previous dignified demeanor.
âGod damn it! How dare you poison me? You-!â Scott was enraged. He was about to hurl insults and threats at them when Dahlia raised a hand to stop him.
âAlright, thatâs enough. Donât escalate the situation lest you get poisoned again.â
Scott gritted his teeth, managing to suppress his anger in the end. Even though he was a martial artist, he was wary of poison experts.
Since he was defenseless against Abigailâs poison, threatening them would serve no purpose and potentially drive them to more desperate measures instead. However, he would not forgive this incident easily.
âWhat about me? Whereâs my antidote? âJulie pointed at herself, asking repeatedly. âNo need to be anxious. You wonât die for now. To prevent you from retaliating, Iâll have someone send over the antidote in three days,â Abigail said.
âWhat? I need to wait three days? What if I canât hold on for that long?â Julie panicked.
âThen, thatâs too bad,â Abigail replied seriously.
âYou-!â Julie was exasperated but was afraid of angering Abigail.
She could only turn to Dahlia and plead, âDahlia, what should we do? They havenât given me the antidote.â
âI trust they wonât try anything foolish. Weâll just wait three days,â Dahlia said impassively.
âWhat?â Julieâs expression stiffened, and she almost cried. The thought of the deadly poison lurking in her body, ready to take her life at any moment, made her legs weak. There were still three days left; it was pure torture!
âDustin, I wonât hold todayâs events against you. But I hope you wonât land yourself in trouble again!â Dahlia spat out before turning around to leave.
âThis isnât over. Letâs see what happens moving forward!â Scott glanced resentfully at Dustin and Abigail before leaving with his entourage.
