An Understated Dominance
âWhat?â Dustinâs expression darkened as Hank twisted the truth, and a murderous gaze flickered through his eyes. Hank deserved death for biting them back at this stage.
âYou fucking slanderous dickhead, Iâm going to kill you!â After a moment of disbelief, Nelsonâs anger erupted, and he brandished his knife, ready to attack.
âMs. Nicholson, save me!â Hank panicked and hid behind Dahlia.
âHold on!â Dahlia took two steps forward to stop Nelson. âUntil everything is clear, youâre not going to touch him!â
âMs. Nicholson, this scumbag is full of lies. I need to teach him a lesson!â Nelsonâs expression was murderous. On their way here, Hank had promised to confess everything and surrender himself However, in the end, he went back on his word and even bit back at them. It was abominableâ
âHmph! Youâre just trying to silence the witness!â Julie suddenly cried out. âAre you furious that Hank refused to be your scapegoat and told the truth?â
âRhys! Youâre a bastard framing the innocent! You not only killed my son, but youâre also deceiving my daughter! Youâre despicable!â Florence criticized Dustin.
âThatâs right! Youâre despicable!â Hank hid behind them and cried out. He knew very well that if he confessed to murdering James today, he would be a dead man himself. Heâd rather gamble and use Dahliaâs sympathy to pressure Dustin into backing off.
âNelson, stand down.â Dustin gestured backward.
âYes, sir.â Nelson gritted his teeth and took a few steps backward. However, his murderous never left Hank.

âHank Hoffman, do you think youâll survive by playing tricks in front of me?â Dustin was calm
âThere you go! Did you hear him, Ms. Nicholson? Heâs planning to silence the witness. Get someone to apprehend him immediately!â Hank screamed in panic.

âThatâs right! All you said were just empty words. Why should we trust you? Bring out the evidence if you have it!â Julie chimed in.
âHmph! He is the murderer! What evidence would he have?â Florence spat out.
âYou want evidence? Fine.â Dustin nodded and gave Nelson a look. Nelson caught on immediately and made a phone call. Moments later, the man from earlier who was covered in multiple injuries was brought to the office.
âThis man right here was the man Hank hired He confessed to everything Ask him if you donât believe me âDustin pointed at the man
âDid you have something to do with Jamesâ death? Dahlia sized him up, her expression heavy
âY-yes, but Hank ordered me to do so! He paid me three million to kill James with a poisoned needle,â the man explained in fear. Heâd rather go to jail than be tortured to death
âYouâre spouting nonsense! I donât know you!â Hank glared at the man as he bellowed
âRhysâ Do you think a random actor you hired would be able to trick us? Do you take us as fools?â Florence scoffed loudly
âOh, Dustin, youâre spending so much effort to frame Mr. Hoffman Donât you think youâre vile for stooping so low?â Julie pushed
âMs Nicholson, the both of them have teamed up to frame me You canât believe them!â Hank started fanning the flames.
âI have evidence to prove that Hank is the mastermindâ the man suddenly claimed.
âWhat evidence?â Dahlia questioned immediately.
âI thought ahead when Hank asked me to kill someone and recorded our entire conversation. Here
