An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1215

Chapter 1215: Sign Of Trust

“Since the Harmon family changed their clan leader, they have become complete vassals of the Grant family. The entire Harmon family’s assets are being slowly devoured. After this engagement, I reckon Tyler will soon show his true colors,” Natasha’s expression gradually turned serious.

The internal strife within the Harmon family had turned brothers into enemies. Formerly close relatives had become adversaries, and the entire family faced a tremendous crisis.

Fortunately, she had prepared in advance, transferring all her assets to Stonia. In this way, she had preserved a spark of hope for the Harmon family.

“Natasha, speaking of the Harmon family, what does your father think?” Dustin asked.

With Hector’s connections and prestige, if he decided to confront Kate, he had a good chance of winning.

“My dad is still trying to salvage the situation, attempting to negotiate with my elder brother and the others, but unfortunately, the results have been minimal,” Natasha shook her head.

Her father was excellent in every way, but he was too sentimental and reluctant to turn against his own family, so he kept conceding ground.

As it stood now, the Harmon family was divided and in disarray.

“Looks like your father still has some reservations. However, in a situation like this, you must be willing to go to great lengths to turn things around,” Dustin reminded her.

While it was important to consider familial relationships, continuously retreating would only worsen the situation.

“I hope my dad comes to his senses soon,” Natasha said, her expression complex.

She could help her father make a comeback, but the problem was that her father currently had no intention of engaging in a struggle.

“Oh, by the way…” At that moment, Natasha seemed to remember something and took out an exquisite pouch from her bag, handing it to Dustin. “Tomorrow is your birthday, and this is a gift from my dad.”

“Please thank your father for me,” Dustin smiled.

“Open it and take a look,” Natasha gestured.

“This…” Dustin felt torn.

Hector giving him the treasure map was not only a sign of trust but also placed a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

“Alright, no need to decline. This is my father’s gesture of goodwill. Accept it, and perhaps it will come in handy for you in the future,” Natasha smiled and handed the parchment to Dustin.

“Fine, I’ll hold onto it for your father. Once the Harmon family stabilizes, I’ll return it to him,” Dustin finally nodded.

Hector had entrusted him with a treasure map that was worth more than life itself. It was a significant show of trust and responsibility.

…

At night, inside the Grant’s mansion.

Tyler sat alone in his study, engrossed in a game of chess.
