An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1243
As more high-ranking officials and nobles continued to arrive, the scene became a mess. Notable
figures like the Minister of War, the leader of the Imperial City guards, the Marquis of Riaz’s eldest son,
and other influential figures from Oakvale arrived. Just looking at this group of VIPs, it was clear they
could easily take over Millsburg.
Everyone was stunned, with their jaws dropped in disbelief as these prominent figures appeared one
after another. It was something they never imagined.

esteemed guests warmly.
They were Minister of War, Landon Hyde, Chief of the Imperial City guards, Rhett Barker, and the
Marquis of Riaz’s eldest son, Neal Schmid. They held considerable influence in Oakvale, and in terms
of status and power, they were on the same level as the Spanners’ twins.
Especially Landon, the leader of the group, held the highest position within Dragonmarsh. Even the
royal family had to show respect to him.
With these influential figures on the Grant family’s side, they were confident in handling any situation.
“Lord Grant, it’s been a while. How have you been?” Landon greeted me with a smile.
“I’m doing well. These old bones still have some life left in them,” Arthur replied with a grin. Then, he
turned to Tyler and said, “Ty, what are you waiting for? Come and say hello to Mr. Schmid.”
Tyler approached and respectfully greeted Landon. This surprised everyone. No one had expected that
Tyler’s mentor was the Minister of War. It explained how he advanced so fast in his career; he had a
powerful backing.
“What? Sir Hyde is Ty’s mentor?” Kate was initially shocked but quickly became excited. “This is
incredible! With such a powerful figure backing us, who would dare pick a fight with us!”

standing above others. With a simple order, he could decide the faith of Balerno. Even the great
Spanners’ twins wouldn’t dare to challenge Landon.
And it wasn’t just Landon supporting the Grant family; Rhett, Neal, and many other respected officials
were also on their side. Even the royal family would have to yield temporarily to these influential
people.
“No wonder the Grant family is known as a powerful family! What an extensive network of connections
they have! Now, we finally have hope!”
Trent and the others were overjoyed, feeling like they had found a savior.
