An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 893

Chapter 893

“Take care, refrain from engaging in foolish actions henceforth, let’s reconvene later.”

With a simple parting, Dustin Rhys finally turned and departed.

Seemingly as destiny intended, it appeared that the intertwining of their paths had truly concluded.

“Mother, that gentleman just now seemed quite peculiar, have I crossed paths with him in the past?”

Observing Dustin’s retreating figure, Dahlia knitted her brows slightly.

The man gave her a sense of familiarity, yet her memory held no recollection of him.

“I’ve not encountered him before, he’s a mere insurance peddler, what business have you concerning him? Be a good girl, lie down, and recuperate,” Cornelius replied, his tone dismissive.

“Yes, cousin, you barely survived a car accident moments ago, and you’re still well enough to contemplate such matters. Rein in your imagination,” Julie concurred.

In their viewpoint, Dahlia’s dismissal of Dustin was a cause for celebration.

“Alright.”

Dahlia nodded, her thoughts only slightly preoccupied. She didn’t delve deeper into it.

…

En route back, Dustin’s emotions grew somewhat complex.

For the pair of them, this outcome was relatively acceptable.

However, for reasons unclear to him, his heart failed to find joy.

Perhaps, remnants of his former sentiments for Dahlia still lingered.

Nonetheless, he believed these lingering feelings would gradually disperse over time.

Twilight descended.

As Dustin drove back to Fengyun Villa, he coincidentally encountered Edith in a state of urgency.

“Master Dustin! You’ve returned at an opportune moment; the women from Jade Maid Palace are causing a ruckus once more!”

At the sight of Dustin, Edith promptly greeted him.

“What’s the matter?”

Dustin was puzzled.
