An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 647

"Alright, that's enough. Stop crying. Can't you see I'm alive and well?" Dustin patted Dahlia's back, consoling her.

This was the first time they were wrapped in such a tight embrace. Dustin could not only smell the natural body scent she emanated, but he could also feel her voluptuous breasts pressing against his chest. It distracted him momentarily.

"Hmph! But you almost died earlier!" Dahlia pounded on his chest again.

"I had no choice. You were the one who told me to jump." Dustin put on an innocent expression.

"You jumped just because I told you so? Why don't you eat shit too if I ask you?" Dahlia's tone was upset.

"Heh … that's too much," Dustin replied awkwardly.

"Eating shit is too much, but jumping down a building is not? What exactly were you thinking?" Dahlia jabbed a finger against Dustin's forehead.

"I was too impulsive earlier. I promise there won't be another time," Dustin admitted to his faults.

He had witnessed the entire scene earlier, where Dahlia cried inconsolably upon realizing he had jumped off the building. She was even willing to follow him into the afterlife. He wasn't only surprised; he was also delighted. This was the first time he understood how important he meant to her.

"Hmph! It's your life! I don't care, so do whatever you want!" Dahlia wiped her tears away before her expression hardened. "One more thing. Although I believe that you have nothing to do with my brother's death for now, that doesn't mean this situation is over. I'm going to find the murderer and avenge James!"

"Leave it to me. I'll find the murderer. I've sent someone to investigate. I believe there will be news soon." Dustin was serious. He wouldn't let the person who dared frame him off that easily. Whoever it was, he was going to make sure they paid the price.

"Hey! What are you two doing?" Suddenly, they heard someone cry out by the door. It was Florence, Victoria, and Julie, walking in angrily.
