An Understated Dominance Chapter 1722 –“So, that’s your plan.” Grace was slightly surprised, finally understanding Dustin’s behavior.

It was just as Dustin said, declining Tristan’s and Matthias’ invitations would undoubtedly anger them, leading to unnecessary trouble.

On the contrary, if he could please both princes and keep them happy, it would not only be advantageous for him but also prevent conflicts.

While Dustin might appear greedy on the surface, Grace had to admit that his approach was the most sensible solution. After all, it was wiser to not take sides and offend either party.

“Well, I’m in a difficult position too. If I had a choice, do you think I’d willingly accept these treasures? They’re like hot potatoes and represent a heavy responsibility. But for the greater good, I have to make sacrifices,” Dustin explained, shaking his head.

“Next time, wipe that smirk off your face before saying something similar,” Grace said, rolling her eyes at him.

Dustin’s shamelessness knew no bounds. Despite gaining an advantage, he still acted innocent.
