An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1155
Dustin found it amusing how arrogant Florence was behaving. From her actions and attire, Dustin
guessed that she must have met a benefactor who had brought her entire family to immense riches.
Not only were they rich now, but they also possessed power and status. She was already rude and
haughty before they were rich and powerful. Now that they were, she went from bad to worse. But
Dustin wasn’t surprised. that she’d act this way.
“Hey! I’m talking to you! Do you hear me? Name your price! I’m really busy and don’t have time for your
games!”
Florence held a gold card between her fingers, looking every part a wealthy woman. “I’m afraid you
won’t be able to afford. the price I have in mind.” Dustin shook his head.
“We can’t afford it?” Florence broke out in cackles as she shot Dustin a ridiculous look. “Hey Rhys! You
really look down on us, don’t you? Do you know our status now? Do you know how loaded we are?

“That’s right! We’re no longer who we used to be before! You can only wish that you’ll be able to attain
our status today!” Julie lifted her chin proudly.
To them, Dustin was nothing more than a man who relied on women. He was only acting all high and
mighty because he had Natasha backing him up. But now, they had Sir Mosey supporting them. Even
Natasha was nothing compared to him.
She was just the heiress of a slightly wealthy family. How could she compare to Sir Mosey? The
difference between them was like night and day!
“Alright, alright. Enough of your nonsense. My patience is wearing thin. Let’s get on with it,” Florence
urged.
“Well, since you’re so rich, I won’t hold back. I will accept to swap rooms with you if you give me this
amount.” Dustin raised his index finger.
“Ten thousand?” Florence huffed in disdain. “What a loser with such low standards. No wonder you can
only mooch off women.”
“What can I say, Dustin? You’ve missed your chance at making a fortune.” Julie looked at Dustin like he
was a dimwit.
“There! Ten thousand for you. Now get lost!”
Florence gestured to one of her guards to bring her a wad of cash. Then, she threw it at Dustin’s feet
like he was a charity case.
“Do I look like a beggar?” Dustin sniggered. “What? Is that not enough?” Florence raised an eyebrow.
“You can’t be asking for a million, can you? Do you think you’re worth that much?”
“Are you kidding me? A million? I’m asking for ten billion!” Dustin’s response was shocking. “What? Ten
billion?” Everyone was startled by Dustin’s demand.
What was he thinking? Ten billion? Did he think that they were cash cows?
It was true that they were rich. But they weren’t so rich to spend ten billion just to use the Celestial
Room! Only an idiot would do something like that!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You heard right. Ten billion. I’ll leave as soon as you pay up.” Dustin smiled ever so faintly. Didn’t they
enjoy flaunting their wealth? Today was the day he’d give them the opportunity to show off just how rich
they were.
“Are you out of your mind, Rhys? How dare you demand such a ridiculous amount? Look in the mirror
to see if you’re worth that amount!” Florence was exasperated.
“You must have lost your marbles! You’re not worth ten billion!” Julie yelled.
“Exactly! You should thank your lucky stars that we’re willing to give you ten thousand! How dare you
ask for ten billion?” Victoria shouted as well.
“You’re asking for ten billion just to swap rooms? You’re better off robbing a bank!” Sue exclaimed
indignantly.
The rascal was too much! It was one thing to ask for tens of thousands. But ten billion? Did he think
that they were easy marks?
“Well, that wouldn’t be quite as fast as extorting you, would it?”
Dustin continued seriously, “Besides, you were the ones who requested for me to name my price. But
now that I’ve named my price, you can’t afford it? Who’s to blame for that?”
