An Understated Dominance Chinese Novel

Chapter 1104

“It’s not like that! It’s not like that!”

Witnessing Sheila Murray being unjustly accused, Lily vigorously shook her head, offering various explanations, “You’ve misunderstood. Brother Dustin isn’t a malevolent person. You can’t make baseless claims here!”

“Sensible girl, you’re still young. Some wrongdoers conceal themselves so cunningly that it’s hard to discern. Only an astute eye like my father’s can spot the signs at once,” Caden stated solemnly.

“Yes, Sheila, Dustin clearly harbours ill intentions. Don’t let yourself be fooled by him,” everyone urged.

“I don’t believe it… I don’t believe it! Brother Dustin would never harm anyone!”

Sheila Murray was so distressed that her eyes turned red, imploring Lily, “Mum, please say something! Brother Dustin saved me once, and now he’s cured Dad’s ailment. You’ve seen it all, Chase, you can vouch for it, can’t you?”

“Brother Caden, could there be a misunderstanding?” Lily attempted to mediate.

“Confused!”

Caden furrowed his brow, “Sheila may not see through, but do you think you can’t? Over these years, what sorts of people haven’t I encountered? To curry favour with us, to climb the social ladder, these lower-level individuals will stop at nothing. I’ve long grown accustomed to this kind of gratitude-seeking behaviour!”

“But…”

Lily was about to say something, but was brusquely cut off by Caden, “What? Do you think I’m mistaken in my judgment? Or do you not trust my word?”
