An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1739

Dustin was baffled. He stared at Cinna after the sudden attack. He had suspicions about many people, such as Maximus and Brooke, but never about Cinna.

Cinna had risked his life for Dustin beforeand had sacrificed so much for the West Lucozian monarchy. Even at the risk of his own poisoning and injury, Dustin felt indebted and went all out to save him.

Cinna was like family to him. As a death warrior for the monarchy, it was unbelievable that he would betray him.

“Mr. Shaffer? What-what are you doing?” Dustin asked with a trembling voice.

Even now, he could hardly believe what was happening.

“Dustin, I’m sorry, but I had no choice, “Cinna said with a complex expression and a hint of guilt.

“I told you not to dig into the past. It would bring deadly consequences. Why didn’t you listen? You could have lived a peaceful life. Why did you choose this path?”

“You… Who are you, really?”

Dustin frowned deeply.

“I am Cinna, the Vice Commander of the Central Cavalry in West Lucozia. But before that, I was a spy for the Dragon Guard,” Cinna explained with a sigh.

Dustin struggled to digest this unexpected revelation. He had never imagined Cinna to be a spy for the Dragon Guard.

So it was Cinna who had informed the Red Cloaked Assassin’s group about their location. He was the one who caused the mysterious black fog. He had even poisoned himself to create an opening for the Red Cloaked Assassin’s ambush.

The complicated deceit had completely caught Dustin off guard. Even now, he questioned if he had made a mistake somewhere.

“Truthfully, when your father became the Prince of West Lucozia, the Dragon Guard had already started plotting. Reston, the former General of the Central Cavalry, and I were all part of their plan,” Cinna explained helplessly.
