An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1122

Chapter 1122: “Unexpected Guest”

“Ah?”

The sudden slap left Chase and Vivian bewildered, their hands covering their faces in confusion.

Wasn’t Dustin the troublemaker? Why was the General hitting them?

At this moment, the Murray family members, and even all the guests present, wore expressions of shock.

Nobody expected that the usually composed General would openly resort to physical violence, especially on his own birthday.

“O-General, did you perhaps mistake the person? This guy is a criminal who should be detained and watched closely to prevent him from causing trouble,” Chase attempted to explain.

“Yes, General, this guy injured Young Lord Garrett last night; he’s truly heinous and must be severely punished!” Vivian chimed in.

She believed that General Murray might not know the whole story, hence the intervention.

“Shut up!” General Murray glared, emitting a powerful aura. “Dustin saved my granddaughter’s life; he is a benefactor of the Murray family and my honored guest. If you dare to talk nonsense again, don’t blame me for kicking you out!”

With those words, Chase and Vivian fell silent immediately, their faces showing signs of panic.

If they were truly expelled from the General’s residence, not only would they suffer, but their entire families would also face consequences, perhaps even being ostracized.

After all, no one would want to risk offending the General and continue associating with their families.

“Grandfather…”

Shiela couldn’t bear to watch anymore and was about to say something when Max interrupted, “Dad, today is your birthday. It’s not worth getting angry. Let’s calm down.”
