An Understated Dominance - Chapter 421

“Sir Rhys, you’re going too far,” Harry said, his smile fading. No one liked to be taunted, no matter how polite they tried to be.

“Aren’t we friends? Shouldn’t I help you in tough times? Helping others makes me happy,” Dustin replied, still grinning.

“I don’t need your help, Sir Rhys. I can handle this myself. Let’s just drink,” Harry said, forcing a smile and quickly changing the subject.

But Dustin wouldn’t drop it. “Why not ask her what she thinks? She might agree with me.”

“Hey! That’s enough!” the women couldn’t hold back any longer.

“Who knew you were such a disgusting man behind that nice face? How can you keep your eyes on someone else’s woman?” one of them shouted.

“Exactly! Just because you’re powerful doesn’t mean you can humiliate others. You’re crossing the line!” another added.

“Find a prostitute somewhere else instead of bothering us,” they said, clearly upset by Dustin’s behavior.

Patrick watched quietly, narrowing his eyes. He had only known Dustin for a short time and wasn’t sure what to make of him. If this was how Dustin really was, Patrick decided it was best to keep his distance. He wasn’t interested in that kind of drama.

“Why are you ladies so upset? He hasn’t even said anything yet,” Dustin said, seeming unfazed.

“You’re shameless!” they shouted back, anger boiling over. They had never met anyone so sickening.

“Ahem, if she’s your type, I can definitely find someone for you tonight,” Nelson said, trying to ease the tension.

“He’s right. There are plenty of women out there. This could be your lucky day. Let’s have a good time, and I hope you can forgive me for anything I said earlier.”

“Cheers! I’ll take the first shot!” Harry raised his glass and downed his drink.

“Wow, your tolerance is impressive!” Dustin teased with a grin.

“Oh, so you were just joking?” Nelson realized, understanding the situation.

“Sir Rhys, you shouldn’t pull pranks like this on your friends.” Harry sighed in relief, wiping unseen sweat from his forehead.

“Who said I was joking?” Dustin’s face grew serious. “You have two choices: let me be with your woman or die right here.”

Everyone’s faces darkened. Was he really threatening Harry?

“Don’t you think that’s unreasonable?” Harry frowned, feeling uneasy.

“So what? I’ll count to three. If you don’t decide, I’ll make the choice for you.” Dustin held up three fingers.

“Sir! I haven’t done anything wrong. Why are you doing this?” Harry’s fists tightened.

“Three…”

“I know you’re powerful, but this isn’t fair!”

“Two…”

“The martial world has its own rules. You can’t act like this without consequences!”

“One…”

“Sir, please—”

“Time’s up.”

In one swift move, Dustin grabbed a fork from the table and stabbed it into Harry’s throat. Blood flowed down the fork, soaking Harry’s shirt.

“Ugh!” Harry’s eyes widened in shock, unable to believe Dustin could be so ruthless.

The room fell silent, everyone frozen in disbelief at Harry’s sudden death. Dustin had killed him just because he wouldn’t let him sleep with his woman. It was insane!

“You crazy bastard! How could you do that?” someone finally shouted.

After a brief pause, chaos erupted.
