An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1585

Eleanor and the others left, and the tension within the Camron family finally began to ease. Matteo and the rest observed Scarlet, who maintained an impassive expression, feeling uneasy. While they were grateful for Scarlet’s intervention, they couldn’t quite fathom why she chose to help.

In the eyes of the Camron family, who felt like mere ants compared to the towering giants of the Spanner family, they couldn’t fathom why anyone would be concerned about them.

Then, Scarlet offered a straightforward explanation. “Don’t overthink it. I helped you all because of Dustin.”

“Dustin?” The Camron family’s attention shifted to Dustin, their faces reflecting surprise and suspicion. Initially, Dustin was perceived as having no influence or background, merely a bold martial artist. But now, it seemed there was more to Dustin than they thought.

If someone like Scarlet was willing to help him, then perhaps he wasn’t as insignificant as they had presumed. In the face of everyone’s surprise and skepticism, Dustin remained silent. He picked up Scott’s head and placed it beneath Lana’s photo.

He whispered, “Lana, your death has been avenged, and those involved will pay the price. Also, I’ll protect your family so they won’t suffer. Please, rest in peace.”

In his heart, he silently said, “Lana, you’re one of the few friends I have. I’ll remember you forever.”

After the somber moment, Dustin shifted his focus and looked at Matteo.

“Mr. Camron, you might doubt my abilities, but I’ll do my best to make amends and eliminate any threats to the Camron family.

“Scott’s death is just the beginning. Anyone against the Camron family or with ill intentions will pay the price. Take care, and I’ll take my leave.”

Dustin nodded respectfully. Accompanied by Scarlet, he hopped onto the helicopter, which took off from the manor. The helicopter fleet gradually vanished into the distance.
