An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1534

Even though she knew the man before her was out for her life, she showed no signs of it.

"The bigger picture?" Anders' gave her a contemptuous gaze.

"Does someone like you understand what a big picture is? Other than Godfather, I have the final say in everything in this house! That is the bigger picture!"

"Perhaps you have the power and influence, but that doesn't mean you have the right to act recklessly. After all, Godfather is still the one in charge here." Dahlia stood her ground.

"Haha … Alright, very well!" Anders suddenly laughed, but his gaze was cold.

"Dahlia, you truly are smart. That's probably why Godfather values you. Unfortunately, people like you usually don't live long. Take care of yourself."

Upon saying that, he patted Dahlia's shoulder and walked away. How dare a powerless woman challenge him? She was digging her own grave!

"Ms. Nicholson, you probably have angered Anders for backing us up. I'm afraid you'll have a harder life going forward," Dustin warned.

"Even if I did nothing, he won't let me off easily," Dahlia was rational about the situation.

She could tell that Anders was ambitious. Since she gained Godfather's favor not long after joining the Moseys, it would undoubtedly lead to feelings of resentment among the others.

Perhaps her presence had threatened Anders' position, leading him to see her as an obstacle that needed to be removed.

"No matter what, you must be extremely careful," Dustin reminded.

"I will." Dahlia nodded.

"Mr. Adams, you shouldn't stay for long. I suspect Anders will use another opportunity to create trouble again. How about I escort you out?"

"That would be much appreciated, Ms. Nicholson." Dustin nodded without refusing the offer.

"It's nothing." Dahlia smiled faintly, leading Dustin and Abigail safely out of Moseys' mansion.

There were many eyes watching them on the way, but they showed restraint, not making any rash movements.
