Chapter 293 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
Was it wrong for a mother to worry about her daughterâs safety? So why couldnât Natasha understand her? âIstrid!â Jessica called out.
A voluptuous woman immediately hurried into the room. âYes, Madam?â âSend an anonymous letter to Clement Lincoln to let him know everything Dustin has done.â Jessica instructed.
âHuh?â Isfrid was stunned. âAâare you sure, Madam?â Dustin had been severely injured just to save Natasha, yet Jessica was telling her to betray him. That was crossing the line.
âShut up and do as I say! Natasha will only be safe if we sacrifice Dustin. Hurry up!â Jessica ordered coldly.
âYes. Madam.â Istrid could only nod. Although she felt sorry for Dustin, as the Harmon familyâs shadow guard, she had no choice but to obey Jessica.
Meanwhile, a red BMW suddenly pulled up at the door of Peaceful Medical Center. The car door flung open. and Dakota Nicholson rushed into the building frenziedly.
âI know youâre here, Rhys! Come out!â she yelled.
âWhich uneducated brat is it?â Dustin emerged from the kitchen. He looked up and gave her a knowing look. So itâs you. What can I do for you?â
âCut the crap! My motherâs sick. Follow me to the hospital and help her!â Dakota ordered rudely. She woke up this morning to find that her mother was paralyzed, unable to feel anything below her shoulders, and could
only move her neck.
Although Dakota was shocked, she was forced to admit that everything happened just as Dustin had said it would. Her mother had fainted the first day, coughed up blood on the second, and became paralyzed on the third, just like he said.
So, if her mother couldnât receive treatment in time, she would die tomorrow.
âWhat does your mother falling sick have to do with me?â Dustin shrugged, not at all surprised.
âShe wouldnât be sick if you hadnât slapped her,â Dakota replied arrogantly.
âWow, to become terminally ill from a slap. Your mother sure is something else.â Dustin chuckled, shaking his
head.
âStop messing around. Iâm giving you a chance to redeem yourself. Come with me to the hospital to save my
mother right now!â Dakota ordered.
âSorry, but I donât give a damn.â Dustin refused bluntly.
âWhat?â Dakota frowned. âHow dare you refuse! Do you have any idea what the consequences will be?â

âNope.â Dustin shook his head.
Dakota humped, displeased. âThat means youâll offend the Glenstead Nicholsons. If I can pull you out of jail, I can certainly put you back in.â
âIt sounds like I have you to thank for my freedom?â Dustin asked, amused.
âDo you think I would have saved you if Dahlia didnât keep begging me?â Dakota humphed. âYou should be grateful. Since I saved you, itâs time for you to repay the favor. Iâm giving you a chance to save my mother!â
âI have no idea where you found the confidence to say all that.â Dustin snorted and shook his head. âIf thatâs the attitude youâre going to carry, Iâm afraid I canât help you. Please leave.â
Dakota was supposed to ask for a favor, yet she acted arrogantly. It was as if she expected him to be grateful. that she was telling him to save someone. Who did she think she was?
