An Understated Dominance By Marina Vittori Chapter 1245-“Comparing numbers, now are we? Let’s see how many brains you have here!” Scarlet didn’t bother wasting her breath at the crowd’s uproar and raised her sword. She was obviously irritated. But before she could attack, Dustin stopped her. “Kid, don’t act impulsively.” With Scarlet’s temper, she wasn’t afraid to kill. But if she did kill, the consequences would be severe.

The people they were up against were of different status. They were Oakvale’s high-ranking officials. If Scarlet hurt them, she would be responsible for it. She might even be dismissed.

The Spanners were a prominent family and had many enemies. Once they had a weakness, their enemies would use it against them.

The prime example was the time he was falsely accused of starting a rebellion. He didn’t want Scarlet to get into trouble because of him.

“Dustin, these people are despicable and only bully the weak. They will continue their acts if we don’t teach them a lesson.” Scarlet glared fiercely at the group of people across from them.

“I know. Leave this to me.” Dustin slowly pushed Scarlet’s sword down. He turned his attention to Landon. Coldly, he said, “Sir Hyde, I don’t wish to make a big fuss out of this. We’ll leave as soon as the Grants release my friends.” If it weren’t because he was worried for Natasha’s safety, he would never have been so calm.

“And who the hell are you? Do you have the right to speak here?” Landon gave him a disdainful side- eye, not hiding his contempt. How dare a nobody speak to him?
