Chapter 207 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
âYoung man, I advise you to consider this carefully. I do not like to be rejected. If something catches my eye. Iâll do anything to get it.â Phineas began to ramp things up.
âIf you agree, then not only will you get the money, youâll also become a friend of the Laney family. If you ever run into trouble, our family will help you. Conversely, if you turn me down, youâll become an enemy of the Laney family. You have to decide for yourself whether you want to be our friend or foe.â
Dustin couldnât help but laugh when he heard that. âI donât like to be threatened. If youâre going to speak like that, then we can only be enemies.â
âHm?â Phineasâ face darkened.
âPunk, are you sure you want to do this?â
âOf course.â Dustin nodded.
âHmph! Donât think you can go around fearlessly because you have the Harmons backing you. To tell you the truth, I have a hundred ways to deal with small fry like you. If youâre going to remain stubborn, I donât mind playing this game with you,â Phineas threatened with a nasty expression.
âIâll play with you to the end.â Dustin was not the least bit afraid.
âGood. I hope you wonât regret it!â Phineas snorted, got up, and left.
A country bumpkin actually had the guts to go against him?
He must have a death wish!
The night went by uneventfully, but the next morning
âAh!â
Dustin was rudely awoken by a scream.
When he opened his door, he found Caitlyn collapsed on the floor, her face white with fear.
âMr. Rhys, Dusty is dead!â
Caitlyn pointed at the door with tears in her eyes.
Dustin looked over to find a dead gray cat hanging from the top of the entrance of the medical center.
The cat had been disemboweled, its blood dripping onto the floor. It was a grisly sight.
This was the cat that Caitlyn brought back yesterday.
âHmm?â
Dustin frowned.
When he stepped outside to take a look, he discovered that dog blood had been splashed all over both sides

of the main entrance, including the medical centerâs sign.
Hanging a cat and splashing dog bloodâthis was no longer just humiliation.
This was a blatant threat and provocation!
âBeep beep! At that moment, the Maybach from yesterday slowly pulled over at the side of the road.
The window rolled down to reveal Phineasâ and Mattâs faces.
Both father and son had the same arrogant smirk on their faces.
âDid you do this?!â Dustinâs face turned stormy.
âCongratulations! Youâve got the right answer!â Matt grinned. âDustin, oh, Dustin, we have already given you a chance. You didnât appreciate it then, so donât blame us for pulling some tricks!â
âYou insist on fighting me?â Dustinâs eyes were icy.
âFight? Heh Are you worthy of fighting us? You need to know that weâre still playing right now.â Matt
sneered.
âOf course, all this is just a taste. The main event will come later! Arenât you always on your high horse? I have plenty of time to play with you! Of course, Iâm not just going to play with you but also with your woman. I know you still have feelings for Dahlia, but donât worry. Once I get her in my bed. Iâll film a video for you to enjoy. I want you to watch me defile your woman! Tsk just the thought of it is wonderful!â At the end of the sentence, he even licked his lips.
âYouâre asking for death!â Dustin was seeing red.
âAsking for death? Heh Are you capable of killing me? Do you think the Harmons would turn against the Laneys for you? Without Natashaâs protection, youâre fucking nothing! Iâll give you three days to think. Either you hand over the Immortunol formula, or you start shopping for your own coffin!â After Matt finished speaking. he wound up the car window and left.
With a dark expression, Dustin took out his phone and dialed a certain number. âHey, I need a favor
