An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 603

Chapter 603 

James‘ death shocked everyone. They couldn’t believe that the man who had been so full of life last night was now dead. 

“N–no! It can’t be! How could my brother be dead?” Dahlia shook her head repeatedly, her face full of disbelief. “Please try and save my brother again! I’m willing to pay any price!” 

“I’m sorry, but there’s nothing we can do. Our deepest condolences.” The doctor shook his head. 

“But how could this be?” Tears streamed down Dahlia’s face, and she staggered backward. She 

couldn’t believe that her brother had died just like that. 

“Oh, James! My son!” Florence wailed in anguish as James‘ body was wheeled out. She burst into tears at the sight of the lifeless body. 

She couldn’t believe that her only son, whom she babied endlessly, had died so suddenly. What a 

tragic outcome! 

“Doctor, my nephew was fine yesterday, so why did he die? Did you guys make a mistake during surgery?” Victoria questioned. 

The patient suffered a severe head injury that resulted in intracranial bleeding. We’ve done everything we could.” The surgeon quickly explained. 

Hearing this, Florence sprung up and swore. “It’s Dustin! That fucker did this! He killed my son!” 

“You’re right. James must have died because of Dustin’s violent assault last night. He even hit James on the head!” Julie exclaimed, a sudden realization dawning on her. 

“That goddamn bastard! How dare he kill my son! I’ll make him pay!” Florence roared. 

“I–it can’t be Dustin!” Dahlia was still in denial. 

“Dahlia Nicholson! Your brother is dead! Are you still going to defend that piece of shit?” Florence 

was furious. 

“There must be a misunderstanding. There must be!” Dahlia kept shaking her head, unable to accept this shocking reality. 

“Dahlia, it’s true that Dustin did it. We saw the whole thing happen last night.” Julie stated 

gravely. 

“I was there too. This happened because Dustin assaulted James.” Victoria echoed. 

“Open your eyes and look at your brother’s body. Look at what that bastard did to James‘ face!” Florence grabbed Dahlia by the collar and dragged her toward James‘ lifeless body. The bruises and swelling on his face that indicated his brutal assault were still clearly visible. 

“Why? Why did this happen?” Dahlia sobbed in anguish. Her brother’s death was already a huge blow to her, but the fact that Dustin was the person who killed James hurt her far worse. 

Although she wanted to deny this truth, all evidence pointed at Dustin, so she had no choice but to accept it. Now, she was at a loss for what to do. 

Why had it been Dustin?
