An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 561

Chapter 561 

Meanwhile, at the Grantsmansion, Tyler sat in the study, quietly poring over war strategy books. He gave each and every word on the page his undivided attention

Suddenly, there was a series of knocks on the door

What is it?Tyler asked without turning his head

Mr. Grant, the big day has arrived, We should head out,an elderly voice said from outside the door 

Tyler set the book down and got to his feet. After straightening his clothes, he opened the door and walked out. An aged servant stood outside the door, waiting for him with his head bowed

How are the Harmons reacting?Tyler asked with an indifferent look

The Harmons haven’t started preparing for the wedding yet. Instead, they’re throwing a birthday party,the man replied

Birthday party?Tyler’s mouth twitched. Is that supposed to put pressure on me? How amusing.” 

Mr. Grant, should we fetch the bride another day?the man asked tentatively

Since the engagement is today, it can’t be changed. We’ll follow the schedule as planned,Tyler said coolly. Also, find me a coffin and bring it straight to the Harmonshome.” 

A coffin?The man was momentarily taken aback. Mr. Grant, what do you want to do with that?” 

Weren’t they going to pick up the bride? What did the coffin have to do with it

The wedding carriage is to escort the bride, while the coffin is for bodies. If the Harmon family agrees to the marriage, I’ll naturally use the carriage. If they don’t, then I’ll make them lay in the coffin,” Tyler said apathetically

Upon hearing that, the man couldn’t help but shudder. He knew that his master was always a man of his word. If the Harmon family didn’t know what was good for them, they might end up completely destroyed

Why are you still standing there? Go do as I say.Tyler gave him a sidelong glance

Yes.” Not daring to hesitate, the man immediately left

Hmph, you want to play games with me? Well, let’s see whether you can hold off my army.” Tyler laughed coldly. He didn’t mind the Harmons playing tricks, but in the face of absolute power, any wile would be for naught

At that moment, the Harmon estate was still bustling with excitement. Looking across the room, distinguished guests filled the seats. It was a gathering of the exalted; the wealthy and powerful exchanged toasts and chatted among themselves. Meanwhile, Dustin sat quietly in a corner, looking like an outsider

In contrast, Gordon, who was sitting at the other table, wouldn’t stop greeting people

Well, if it isn’t Mr. Bolls! What a pleasure to see you!”

Oh, Ms. Pickens, you’re here too. My father talks a lot about you.” 

Hahaha, Mr. Solinsky, what a surprise to run into you here. It must be fate. Let’s grab a meal together sometime.” 

Gordon stood, chatting and laughing with all the guests, showcasing his extensive network

Gordon, was that Mr. Bolls, the famous jewel tycoon?Zeke couldn’t help but ask, curious
