An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 906

Chapter 906

“Logical?”

Upon hearing this, Dustin scoffed: “Nikki Horst, honestly, your double standards never cease to amaze!”

“When your mentor backed down, why didn’t you question her?”

“Why didn’t you stand up to her when she was being ungrateful?”

“Why didn’t you voice concerns when she asked you to administer the drug?”

“And when she tried to end me moments ago, where was your sense of justice then?”

“Only now, realising you’re outmatched, you seek a reasoned debate? Isn’t your behaviour just a bit rich?”

When peril was at his door, she merely stood by, indifferent.

But as soon as danger befalls Edith, Nikki’s ready to deliver a sermon. It’s quite revolting.

“I… um…”

Faced with this barrage, Nikki Horst found herself at a loss for words.

All she could muster was, “Dustin, it’s for your own sake! My mentor has a vast array of contacts in the underworld. Cross her, and you’ll find yourself against a slew of formidable foes. There’s no advantage for you.”

“I’ve already got half the world against me, what difference does the Jade Maiden Sect make?” Dustin retorted.

“You’re being utterly obtuse!”

Nikki Horst was fuming.

Had her master not been gravely hurt, would she have lost today?

Her intentions were pure, but the man before her was relentless in his disdain.

To challenge the entirety of the Jade Maiden Sect? He’s got a death wish!

“Nikki Horst, I’ve no more patience for this.”

Dustin grew visibly irritated, “Out of respect for your brother, you’ll leave unscathed today. But mark my words, provoke me again, and you’ll see no mercy.”
