An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori

Chapter 289

“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 turning around to look at the overturned truck, shocked. She couldn’t understand how the truck had made its way behind her, but she might faint if she found out it was thanks to Dustin’s list.

“Are you an idiot? Don’t you know how to run away when there’s danger? Why the hell would you think of me first?” Dustin snapped furiously. Fortunately, his reflexes were sharp, or she would have died on impact!

“At the spur of the moment, I couldn’t think much.” Dahlia was pale from fear.

“You better remember that your safety comes first from now on!” Dustin warned sternly. He would be plagued by guilt for the rest of his life if she died because of him.

“Bro, can’t you give me some attention as well?” Adam staggered to his feet grumpily.

“What the hell? Even if you’re saving someone, why would you throw the truck toward me? Is my life not important to you? What happened to bros before hoes?” he thought.
