An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 891

Dustin jumped to his feet when he heard what Florence said. "How did that happen?"

"You beast! How dare you ask me how that happened? It's all because of you, of course!" Florence shouted.

"After she met you the other night, Dahlia seemed to have lost her soul! She refused to eat or drink, and she cried endless nights! Then, this morning, she attempted suicide by jumping off the building!"

Dustin felt like he'd been struck by lightning. His mind went completely blank. Never in his wildest dreams had he ever thought that Dahlia would act so rashly!

How could she attempt suicide by jumping off a building without saying anything to anyone at all? Had she lost her mind?

"She … How is she now?" There was a tremble in Dustin's voice.

"She's still in a critical condition and doing horribly! Her life is in danger!

"And this is all because of you! You beast! You're the reason Dahlia threw herself off the building!

"I'm warning you, Rhys! If anything happens to Dahlia, I'll make you pay with your life!'

Florence swiftly ended the call after spewing threats at him.

Dustin sat there idly with his phone in his hand. When he finally snapped out of it, he dashed out the door instantly.

He got into his car and sped to the hospital within 30 minutes. He quickly found Dahlia's ward after asking around for a bit.

When he entered the room, he saw Dahlia lying unconscious on the bed. She was wrapped up in bandages and was unusually pale. She looked very weak.

Florence and several others stood by her bedside, looking helpless.

"How dare you show your face here, Rhys!" At the sight of Dustin, Florence's anger flared again.

"Look at her! Look what a state you've gotten Dahlia into! You heartless bastard! How did she fall for a scumbag like you?"

After screaming at him, she began punching and kicking at him to let out her anger.

"Dustin Rhys! I've always thought that you were an honest man. Who would have thought that you were such a jerk?" Julie began berating him, too.
