Chapter 1592 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
âMy Lord, they claim that they can help you deal with Scottâs murderer and hope that youâll meet them,â the guard said.
âOh, is that so?â Anders raised an eyebrow.
After considering it briefly, he nodded. âVery well, let them in.â
âUnderstood.â the guard acknowledged and promptly left. Soon, Eleanor and Elena were brought into the room. Eleanor appeared relatively fine, only her cheeks were slightly red.
On the other hand, Elena appeared pale and disheveled. She struggled to move in her wheelchair and coughed occasionally. She looked especially weak.
âGreetings, Sir Anders!â Eleanor bowed immediately upon seeing Anders. Elena struggled to get up from her wheelchair but was stopped by Anders. âAll right, thatâs unnecessary. Please, both of you, straighten up.â
âThank you, Sir Anders.â Eleanor stood up straight and lowered her gaze, maintaining a respectful demeanor. Elena, on the other hand, couldnât help but steal glances at Anders from time to time, her heart racing.
He certainly lived up to his reputation as one of Oakvaleâs four princes. Handsome and charismatic, he looked far more attractive than in photos.
He was handsome, held a prominent position, and wielded significant power, making him the perfect man. If only she could marry someone like him, she would consider it a dream come true.
âSo tell me, why have you come to see me? Anders asked impassively.
âMy Lord, we heard Dustin caused a commotion at Jadeleaf Manor today and even publicly killed Scott.
âWeâre greatly outraged by this and have come to help you eliminate this threat.â Eleanor went straight to the point.
She understood well that pretenses were pointless before someone as influential as Anders. Her best chance at convincing him was being honest and open.
âI appreciate your goodwill. However, how exactly will you be able to help me? âAnders retorted.
âWe know Dustin very well, including his weakness. With a little scheming, we can lure him into our trap.
âBy then, youâll be able to capture him easily with your forces lying in ambush, âEleanor explained confidently.
âSounds promising, but why would you want to help me?â Anders remained unfazed.
âTo be honest, we have a deep-seated grudge against Dustin. He had used the power of the Spanners to oppress our families, making our lives miserable.
âWeâd love nothing more than to tear that bastard apart!â Eleanor expressed her hatred.
âSo, you plan to use my influence to seek revenge and simultaneously counteract the oppression from the Spanners?â Anders asked with a half- hearted smile.
âMy Lord, we share a common enemy. If we work together, itâll be beneficial for both parties.â Eleanor tried to explain.
âWork together?â Anders raised an eyebrow.
âWhat can you offer me? Why should I work with you?â
âMy Lord, if you help both of our families through this difficult time, weâll be your loyal followers and only obey you!â Eleanor bowed again.
âThatâs right, weâre willing to provide you with support and resources.â Elena nodded repeatedly.
âAlright! Since youâre so sincere, Iâll help you this once. However, before that, you must get rid of Dustin for me, âAnders said.
âNo problem! Weâll definitely eliminate that troublemaker for you!â Eleanor and Elena were overjoyed.
âNow, itâs time to discuss how to trap our prey.â Anders grinned. Although Anders was smiling, his gaze was chilling. It was as if he was looking at two corpses.
Just moments ago, he was worried about finding a suitable scapegoat. Unexpectedly, two individuals walked right into his hands. It was nothing short of perfect!
