An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1215
“Ever since a new leader took over the Harmon family, the family bowed to the Grant family. They even
took over the Harmon family’s properties.
I think Tyler Grant will show his true colors soon after the engagement.” Natasha’s expression became
serious.
The dispute within the Harmon family brought about bad blood among the brothers. Families were now
enemies. It was a serious crisis in the family.
Fortunately, she foresaw this. She had transferred the properties under her name to Oakvale. By doing
so, she had protected some of the family’s foundation.
“Natasha, speaking of the Harmon family, what does your father think of all this?” Dustin asked. With
Hector’s network and reputation, he had a high chance of winning if hedecided to fight back.
“My father is still trying his best to salvage the situation. He’s trying to talk some sense into my uncles.

a fault, in fact.
He was a sentimental person and kept making compromises. All because he didn’t want to antagonize
his brothers. As the feud continued, the family was slowly falling apart.
“Looks like your father still has his concerns. However, he must be decisive and ruthless to resolve the
issue,” Dustin advised.
It was a good thing that he respected the relationship with his brothers. However, the situation would
only worsen if he kept giving in.
“I hope that my father comes to this realization soon,” Natasha said with a complicated expression. She
could turn the tide in her father’s favor. The only problem was that her father didn’t want to fight.
“Oh, and…” Natasha suddenly remembered something and took out an exquisite sachet from her bag.
She gave it to Dustin. “It’s your birthday tomorrow, and this is a gift from my father.”
“Please give him my thanks.” Dustin flashed her a smile.
“Open it and take a look.” Natasha gave him a look. “Now?” After gaining her approval, Dustin untied
the sachet slowly. From inside, he took out a carefully preserved piece of parchment. He unfurled the
parchment and saw a mysterious but incomplete drawing on it.
“Natasha, what’s this?” Dustin was a little astounded. “This is the Harmon family heirloom, the treasure
map. This is also what Tyler Grant is after. Now, my father has gifted it to you.” Natasha smiled.
“What? The family treasure map?” Dustin was stunned and immediately waved his hands.
“No way, this is too much! I can’t accept this!”
The Harmon family treasure was a gold mine, and it could potentially alter the course of events. The
value of this treasure map was unimaginable.
“It’s just an incomplete piece of the original treasure map. My father sees no point in keeping it.
“He thought it’d be better to give it to you. You might have a better chance at finding the other missing
pieces.” Natasha smiled.
“Natasha, this is your family heirloom. How could I possibly accept it?” Dustin shook his head again.

Natasha explained, “With his current ability, he wouldn’t be able to keep this map safe for long. Tyler
might steal it from him.
“Instead of losing the treasured map to an overly ambitious person, he wanted to give it to someone
who is reliable to safeguard this map.”
“Well…” Dustin hesitated. Hector saw the treasure map as something more important than his life.
Giving him the map meant that Hector had full confidence in him. Simultaneously, Dustin felt a heavy
burden on him.
“That’s enough. Please don’t refuse the gift. This is a sincere gift from my father. Just accept it. It might
be useful to you in the future.” Natasha smiled as she shoved the map into Dustin’s hands.
“Alright then. I’ll keep it safe on behalf of your father. I’ll return it to him when the Harmon family is at
peace again.” Dustin finally nodded.
Hector gave him the treasure map because he trusted him. He also hoped that the treasure map would
be used for the benefit of others.
It was night. Tyler was playing chess alone in his study in the Grants’ mansion.
