An Understated Dominance Chapter 1637 –““Traitor?” Dustin raised an eyebrow at the unexpected revelation. Although a similar notion had crossed his path before, the urgency in Donovan’s voice gave the matter newfound significance.

“Abbot Lumen…” Dustin pressed, ” Who’s this supposed traitor?” “The culprit is none other than General Reston Rever, a key figure under your father’s command,” Donovan disclosed.

“Uncle Reston? That can’t be right! Didn’t he sacrifice himself?” Dustin’s face displayed disbelief. Reston Rever, a loyal general in his father’s service, stood as a brother-in- arms, sharing the trials of life and death.

A decade ago, Reston, who led the guard during their arrival in the capital, successfully foiled numerous assassination attempts. His bravery became even more evident during the Aylka Rebellion when he courageously guided Dustin and Alba out of the city, eventually sacrificing himself in a heroic act.

How could someone so gallant and virtuous turn out to be a traitor?

“When I first got wind of this, I was equally taken aback. However, after a thorough investigation, all signs pointed to Reston Rever. I can’t say why he did it-perhaps he was coerced or manipulated,” Donovan explained with a serious expression.

He went on, “But the truth remains that he’s involved. Regarding his alleged sacrifice, it was a staged event. I had the body examined later, and it turned out to be a decoy.” “Reston Rever? He’s a traitor?” Dustin’s fists clenched, anger welling up within him. He could handle being manipulated, even enduring ambushes.
