An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1329

Seated by the window on the second floor of Regal Court, Lana swirled her wine glass. Her gaze was fixed on the tranquil nightoutside. The moon and stars were mirrored in her beautiful eyes. It made her appear exceptionally charming.

“Ms. Camron.” At that moment, a bodyguard dressed in a suit approached her. He whispered, “We had an incident earlier. Thetarget you asked us to keep an eye on has disappeared.”

“Disappeared?”Lana raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean?”

“The target is quite strong. He took down dozens of people with his bare fists. Then, he disappeared without a trace,” thebodyguard replied with his head lowered.

“Oh? Doesn't that mean he’s an excellent fighter?” Lana smiled, her expression betraying her growing interest in him.

“| thought he was just good-looking, but it seems like he’s got some skills. Have someone investigate him and find out about hisbackground. If he’s on the right side, try to bring him over.”

“Understood!” the bodyguard replied and left quickly.

“Interesting. How interesting. | haven’t met someone this interesting in a while now.” Lana smiled faintly before downing her winein one shot.

She had a feeling that she had come across a valuable treasure. Early the next morning, Dustin left his hotel and headed straightfor Harmony Healers.

After shaking off the people following him the previous night, he checked into a hotel near Harmony Healers.novelbin

His primary goal of coming to Oakvale this time was to treat Cinna and investigate the events of the past. With his current skillsand the help of the Celestial Pearl, he was finally capable of searching for the truth.

Five minutes later, Dustin walked into Harmony Healers. The place was as bustling as ever, filled with mostly middle-aged andelderly patients. It was as noisy as a market, with people chattering incessantly.

Dustin had already informed Brooke beforehand of his arrival. So, he proceeded directly to the second floor.The door on the second floor was already open. Brooke had been waiting for him in the living room for some time.

“Dustin, you're here? Please, have a seat.” Brooke extended a welcoming hand. Pouring him a cup of tea, he apologized, “I’mtruly sorry for what happened last night. Even though Harper can be quite stubborn, she means no harm. | hope you won't hold itagainst her.”

“No worries, it’s all in the past. | just hope she can behave herself going forward,” Dustin said with a faint smile. Harper was astubborn and unreasonable woman. If it weren’t for Brooke’s sake, he wouldn't have been so understanding.

Of course, as long as she didn’t cross his boundaries, he preferred not to be bothered about her.

“I'll make sure to teach her manners from now on. If she continues down this path, she'll get into trouble sooner or later,” Brookesaid regretfully.

“By the way, Dr. Busch, how is Mr. Shaffer’s condition?” Dustin changed the subject. “I just checked on him. Cinna’s condition isstill stable for now. But he can only stay that way for around ten days to two weeks.

“We'll need to produce the Sanctifix as soon as possible.” Brooke’s expression turned solemn.

“Have you got any news on the three main ingredients for Sanctifix?” Dustin asked.

“I've already had someone look into it. While we don’t have any news on the Iceheart Lotus or Emerald Corolla, | do know whereto find a Dragon Panax. But it’s a bit tricky to get.” Brooke sighed.

“Oh? Where is it?” Dustin perked up instantly.

“As far as | know, the Dragon Panax is the Welch family’s treasure. They rarely show it to others,” Brooke explained.

“The Welch family, one of Oakvale’s eight great families?” Dustin raised an eyebrow.

“Exactly.” Brooke nodded.

“| heard that Mr. Welch Senior has been in poor health, and they’re keeping the Dragon Panax for its life- extending properties.It ll be incredibly difficult to get it from them.”

“It is pretty troublesome, but we have to try. Leave this matter to me,” Dustin said thoughtfully.“Dr. Busch, please look more into information on the other two medicinal herbs while I’m at it.”

“No problem. I’ve already contacted my friends in the medical community. | believe it won’t be long before we get news on them,”Dr. Busch replied seriously.
