An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1069

"Oh, I'm here to visit General Murray," Dustin answered with a smile.

Vivian looked at him disdainfully and commented, "Hmph! What a suck-up!"

Ever since the band-aid incident, she had a grudge against Dustin. But she had to admit that he was pretty skilled.

That was because Vivian found out she had lung cancer after being shot and hospitalized.

Fortunately, they detected the cancer in time. With Vivian's family's wealth, she got the best treatments, and her condition stabilized.

Meanwhile, Sheila's attention was on Dustin. "My grandfather has gone out to attend to some matters. He won't be back for a while.

"Why don't you come in for coffee first? I have some questions to ask you, too."

Without waiting for Dustin's response, Sheila immediately dragged him into the Murray residence.

She finally got the chance to get close to him. So, Sheila would not let him go.

"Sheila, didn't we agree to practice horseback riding?" Vivian reminded.

"Oh, you're right! I got so excited that I forgot about it."

Sheila looked at Dustin and asked cautiously, "Dustin, there's a horse ranch at the hill behind my house. Why don't you hang out with us while waiting for him?

"When my grandfather returns, I'll take you to meet him. Is that fine with you?"

"Sure." Dustin nodded in response.

After all, he did not want to ruin her mood.

"That's great. Come on! Let's go!" Sheila exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear.

She turned around and led the group to the hill at the back of the Murray residence.

"Evan, just look at how happy Sheila is. It seems like she's interested in this man. You better be careful," Vivian lowered her voice and warned Evan.

Evan looked at Dustin with contempt. He sneered, "Hmph! He's just a martial artist without power or status. He's not worthy of Sheila!

"Even if she likes him, the Murray family would never agree. It's because they're from different worlds.

"No matter how hard he tries, he'll never get into our social circle."

"That's true." Vivian nodded noncommittally.
