Semua Bab An Understated Dominance: Bab 281 - Bab 290

The moment Adjutant General Damon saw General Jenkins, without uttering a single word, he delivered him a resounding slap. General Jenkins was left dazed, taking quite some time to recover from the impact. He'd welcomed Adjutant General Damon with a smile, but the man fucking responded with a slap instead. That was crossing the line! "Adjutant General Damon, what is the meaning of this?!" General Jenkins' face darkened, his gaze turning hostile. Even if he was Christopher's adjutant general, it didn't mean he had a free pass to humiliate him. After all, Chief General Spanner was backing him. In terms of rank, he held an even higher position than Christopher! "General Jenkins, that slap was a lesson for you," Adjutant General Damon said with a cool expression. "You should not have captured Mr. Rhys. Release him now, or you'll have to bear the consequences!" "Are you threatening me?" General Jenkins snorted. "Damon, you're nothing but an old general's dog. What right do you h

"B-buddy?!" Seeing Adam's friendly expression, General Jenkins was stunned. His mind went blank. The man in front of him was none other than the renowned God of War! He was also the youngest chief general of Dragonmarsh! He reported to no one, while thousands reported to him! However, this all-powerful figure had actually called Dustin his buddy? What the fuck was going on? "No, that's impossible! How could that bastard know Chief General Spanner?!" Jade was thunderstruck. Her eyes were as wide as saucers, and her face was filled with disbelief. According to her investigation, Dustin was just an irrelevant small fry. How could he have a relationship with the famous God of War? "Now that you mention it, we indeed haven't seen each other in a long time." Dustin regarded him up and down, then said happily, "I must say, you're doing quite well for yourself, you rascal. I think I may need to start relying on you for money soon." "Don't joke like that!" Adam said with a stran

"Hello, is this Mr. Langford? Dahlia has something to say to you." Florence shoved the phone to Dahlia as soon as the call got through. "Dahlia? Let me know if you need any help. I'll definitely get it done if I can," a voice drawled. "It's me, Mr. Langford," Dahlia responded stiffly. "I'll get to the point. I have a friend who's in trouble and has been arrested by the military. I hope you can help me save him." "Arrested by the military? Your friend must be into hot water," Luis guessed arrogantly. "I wouldn't have turned to you if I had another choice," Dahlia responded tiredly. "What's your friend's name?" "Dustin Rhys." "Alright. I'll help you on one condition." "What is it?" "Treat me to dinner tonight," Luis responded frankly. "Um …" Dahlia stiffened, instantly understanding what he meant. "You won't refuse such a small request, would you?" Luis teased half-jokingly. "Of course not." Dahlia forced a smile. "It's nothing compared to what you're willing to h

Dustin never expected to run into Dahlia there. Worse, she was accompanied by another man, and it seemed like those two were on a date. It irked him for some reason. He had just been captured by the military, his life in danger, but here Dahlia was, carefree and relaxed, as she went on a date with another man. It was clear that Dahlia didn't give a damn about him, and it made him feel like a fool."Do you know that lady?" Adam quickly caught onto the change in mood and asked. "Yeah. She's my ex-wife." Dustin answered bluntly. "Your ex-wife?" Adam's lips twitched. "Why don't we go somewhere else?" No one would be happy to see their ex-wife happily chatting away with another man. "Forget it. I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I be afraid?" Dustin lifted his glass to his lips and swallowed a mouthful of wine resentfully. Just then, Dahlia and Luis arrived on the second floor, and the woman immediately spotted the two men. "Dustin? What are you doing here?" she exclaime

"Watch out!" As the truck headed toward them, Dahlia's immediate reaction was to push Dustin away, completely disregarding her safety. Realizing that she had nowhere else to escape to, she instinctively shut her eyes tightly. Right then, she came to a realization that it might not necessarily be a bad thing to die like this. At least he would remember for the rest of his life. As her eyes closed, a strong figure dashed forward and put itself in front of her. With an ear-splitting boom, a fist landed on the front of the truck, and metal bent under the force. The sudden opposing force upturned the entire truck, flipping it around, and the truck landed on the ground behind Dahlia with a crash, debris flying in all directions. "Are you okay, Dahlia?" Dustin drew his hand back and quickly surveyed the woman for any injuries before letting out a breath of relief. "What in the world happened?" Dahlia's eyes were opened wide as she gaped at the empty space in front of her before turnin
