An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 758

Chapter 758
Their intimate behavior shocked everyone present.
It wasn’t just the recently released prisoners who were taken aback. Even two of Scarlet’s deputy generals, Georgia and Bridget, were left dumbfounded.
The Goddess of War they knew was decisive and ruthless. No matter who she was fa ced with, she always wore a cold and aloof expression. She was terrifying when angry. No one was able to stand in her way.
Usually, any man who dared to touch her would risk losing a few limbs. But, even though she was being patted on the head in public right now, she wasn’t furious. Instead, she was smiling in genuine joy.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would have never believed their general had a tender and gentle side to her. Was she still the fearsome and unapproachable Goddess of war they knew?
“Logan, have you been well these years?” Scarlet felt a multitude of emotions as she took in the familiar face before her.
They hadn’t seen each other in ten years. The once magnificent and peerless kirin has had his edges smoothed away.
He had lost his youthful arrogance, sharp gaze, and distinctive temperament. He now appeared profound and mature.
But no matter how he changed, he would always be the same old Logan to her. The most important person in her heart.
“I’m doing great. I now live a relaxed life without burden nor politics.” Dustin replied with a smile,
After ten years, the cry baby who once followed him everywhere had grown into a graceful and elegant woman. She had even become Dragonmarsh’s Goddess of War. A person everyone looked up to.
“Logan, why have you never contacted me? Even Adam knows about your whereabouts, but not me. You’re too much!” Scarlet’s gaze betrayed a hint of resentment.
“That can’t be. I asked Adam to contact you a while back. Hasn’t he said anything?”
When Dustin feigned surprise, Scarlet’s expression darkened. Her brow furrowed deeply. An icy, murderous gaze flickered in her eyes.
Even the three-foot viridescent sword she carried behind her back seemed to vibrate. It sent a cold chill down the spines of those around them.
“That da mned Adam! How dare he get in the way. When I return to Oakvale, I will definitely break three of his limbs!” Scarlet’s expression was filled with fiery vengeance.
“He’s still your brother. Don’t go too harsh on him. Two limbs should be enough.” Dustin grinned, playfully enjoying the situation.
“Alright!” Scarlet nodded seriously. Sparing one limb for him to keep the next generation going
was already a kind act from her.
“Where are you living now, kid?” Dustin suddenly thought of something. He quickly changed the subject.
“I’m staying at Fallonge estate. Why?” Scarlet was surprised.
“Head back with your people first. I have something to deal with. I’ll see you tomorrow after I’m done,” Dustin said.
“Logan, you won’t suddenly disappear again, will you?” Scarlet was reluctant to leave.
Ten years ago, he disappeared mysteriously and had been missing ever since. That incident had left her traumatized.
“Of course not,” Dustin replied with a smile. “Don’t worry. I’ll make sure to visit you tomorrow.”
“Okay then, I’ll head back first. Don’t forget your promise.” Scarlet waved. She took a few steps away before turning back to look at Dustin. She repeated this a couple of times before finally leaving.
As Dustin watched her ride away, the smile on his face slowly faded.
“Mr. Roswell, may I know who used Azkaban’s authority to send me inside?” Dustin suddenly asked.
Caius trembled from the shock. He shook his head repeatedly. “Sir Rhys, this has nothing to do with me. I swear, I don’t know anything about it!”
