An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1423

Chapter 1423: Poison Creature

Isabela’s menacing demeanor sent shivers down Owen’s spine.

He had expected her to hesitate a bit, but she immediately demanded that Dustin suffer greatly.

After all, Dustin had helped her in the past. Wasn’t this punishment a bit too severe?

Thinking back to his own actions, Owen felt a bit uneasy.

Fortunately, he had the backing of the Stratford family. Otherwise, in the hands of this crazy woman, he didn’t even want to think about his miserable fate.

“Owen, is there a problem?” Isabela smiled again, displaying an innocent appearance, a complete contrast to her previous maliciousness.

It was like two completely different extremes.

“No, no problem!” Owen laughed heartily. “This kid deserves it. He offended my precious one and should pay the price!”

“Indeed, Owen, you always care about me,” Isabela said sweetly, pointing to the green bamboo tube. “Master Hudson, let’s use the poison in this one to teach that arrogant fool a lesson!”

“When you take someone’s money, you help them resolve their problems. Your call,” the man in black robes nodded without saying much.

He then cut off a piece of fabric from the clothing, dripped some blood onto it, and tossed it into the green bamboo tube. After completing these actions, he chanted a mysterious incantation with an air of mystery.

After his dramatic performance, he suddenly lifted the green cloth and said sharply, “Go!”

“Buzz!”

The moment the green cloth was lifted, a black poisonous insect shot out instantly, flying out of the room at an incredible speed.

“All done. We’ll have results within an hour,” the man in black robes said, shaking his sleeves before sitting back down to enjoy some tea and snacks.

“Thank you for your efforts, Master Hudson.”

Owen smiled slightly and waved his hand. “Bring in the wine!”

With his command, a sumptuous feast of food and wine was quickly brought in.

“No problem. It’s my honor to assist Young Master Owen,” the man in black robes said, showing a rare smile as he naturally accepted the gold bars.
Compared to paper money, he preferred these shining gold items.
