An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori (official version)

“What did you say?” Grace was taken aback, thinking she had heard Dustin wrong.

“Honestly, I think you’d be great as Queen, and the King probably agrees. That is why, if you’re interested, I’ll

represent the West Lucozian monarchy and back you fully,” Dustin said with a smile.

“Logan, stop joking! It’s not funny.” Grace’s tone grew serious. “I’m just a woman. I’m not qualified to sit on the

throne. The monarchy would never accept me.”

“So what if you’re a woman?” Dustin asked. He continued seriously, “Who said women weren’t allowed to ascend to

the throne? Queen Mary I is an example.

“Even though you’re a little younger than when she became queen, you still have space to grow. As long as you’re

willing to work hard, I don’t see a problem.”

“Logan, I appreciate your trust in me, but the thought never crossed my mind. So, please abandon that idea,”

Grace refused firmly.

Throughout history, there have only been a handful of queens. And even then, everything aligned perfectly for

them to have that glimmer of hope.

Grace didn’t think she was comparable to those legendary queens. Most importantly, once she decided to fight for

the throne, it would undoubtedly shock the world.

If that day came, it would lead to another storm of bloodshed and chaos. This was not something she was willing to

witness.

“If you don’t want to, then just forget about it. I just brought it up casually. However, if you ever change your mind,

just let me know anytime,” Dustin said with a faint smile.

As Valon had said, Grace was actually the most fitting candidate among the royal heirs to ascend to the throne.

Unfortunately, she was a woman, and her path to power would be fraught with difficulties. It wouldn’t be only her

brothers-the entire monarchy would never accept this outcome.

Of course, it still depended on Grace. If she had the ambition, Dustin would support her wholeheartedly. If she

didn’t, then she should just consider it a playful remark.

“Your thoughts are so erratic. Why bring up such a random thing?” Grace was puzzled.

“It’s nothing. I just think you’re the most suitable. Perhaps, if you become Queen, the world would change.”

Dustin chuckled.

“Don’t be silly. It’s impossible. You should focus on my three brothers.” Grace shook her head.

“There’s no need to rush. Choosing the next heir isn’t something that’s going to happen overnight. Let’s just go with

the flow.”

Dustin patted his stomach and asked, ” Grace, do you have anything to eat here? I’m hungry again.”

“Wait a moment, I’ll make you something,” Grace responded.

“Really? A princess can actually cook?” Dustin was surprised.

“Is it that surprising?” Grace rolled her eyes. “I left the palace a long time ago and spent most of my time exploring

the outside world. Isn’t it normal for me to know how to cook?”

“I see.” Dustin chuckled. “Seems like it’s my lucky day. I’m actually getting to try the princess’ cooking.”

“Don’t tease me!” Grace was slightly annoyed. “There are fruits in the living room. Have a snack if you’re hungry.

I’ll be done in a while.” 2

With that, she left the bedroom and started busying herself in the kitchen.

Dustin rolled out of bed. Facing the sunlight streaming in through the window, he stretched lazily and felt refreshed.

Since the situation with the Dragon Guard had been settled for now, it was time to return to West Lucozia.
