An Understated Dominance Novel (Dahlia & Dustin) by Marina Vittori updated 2025-26 - An Understated Dominance Chapter 2238

An Understated Dominance Chapter 2238–It was Conor at this moment, and his expression was indescribably weird. Noemi’s awakening surprised him a bit, but what he felt inside was more humiliation after the slap in the face.

Especially the looks between Dustin and Grace made him feel like a clown.

All the previous behaviors turned into a big joke the moment Noemi woke up.

He had never felt so ashamed in all his life as he does now.

For a time, his hatred for Dustin and Grace reached its peak.

“Sister, how are you feeling? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?” Kassidy approached the hospital bed and asked with a concerned look on her face.

“My head hurts a little.” Noemi frowned, rubbed her temples, and then asked, “Kassidy, why am I here? What happened?”

At this moment, her head felt hazy, and her memory was blank, very confused.

“Sister, you ingested poison and are in critical condition.” Thanks to Sister Linsor and Dr. Rhys for saving your life; otherwise, you might have died.” Kassidy did not hide anything and simply explained what happened.

After listening, Noemi’s eyes quickly fell on Grace, with a bit of surprise on her face. “Grace, why are you here?”

“I heard that you were sick, so you specially invited a miracle doctor, but we arrived in time; otherwise, we don’t know what accident would have happened.” Grace smiled slightly.

“You are really thoughtful.” Noemi smiled and turned to Dustin. “This is Dr. Rhys, right? Thank you for saving my life. If you encounter any trouble in the future, I will definitely help you.”

“You’re welcome. I only came to the rescue because of Grace’s face.” Dustin didn’t shy away from it.

“Oh? It seems that the relationship between Dr. Rhys and Grace is not simple.” Noemi winked playfully at Grace.

“You’re so sick, and you still have the intention to joke? Just lie down and rest.” Grace said it angrily.

“I have been lying in bed for several days. If I continue to lie down, I will fall apart. I have to get up and stretch my muscles.” Noemi smiled slightly, got up, and got out of bed.

As a result, she felt dizzy the next second, and her whole body started to shake.

“Sister, slow down!” Kassidy was startled and quickly reached out to help her.

“I’m fine.” Noemi raised her hand to stop Kassidy’s movements, then closed her eyes and took a deep breath. After the dizziness slowly subsided, she opened her eyes and smiled again. “I woke up too fast. It’s just a little hypoxic; it’s not a problem.”

At this time, Dustin said with a serious face, “Ms. Marshall, to be honest, what you were poisoned with was not an ordinary poison but a very powerful voodoo. The person who poisoned you is a high-level wizard with profound knowledge. Although I can save you once, that does not mean that I can save you two or three times. The best way to avoid future troubles is to find this wizard and either turn his enemy into a friend or k!ll him.”

“Noemi, have you offended anyone recently? Or have you had any grudges with anyone before?” Grace asked tentatively.

“Offend someone?” Noemi frowned slightly, and after thinking carefully for a moment, she finally shook her head. “I usually don’t go out very much. Recently, I learned about a martial arts competition at Sacred Wyrm Summit, prompting me to join the fun and embark on a road trip. I have never messed with anyone.”

“That’s strange.” Grace looked back at Dustin, who nodded.

Although they didn’t speak, both of them understood what the other meant.

If it wasn’t revenge from the enemy, then there was a high probability that it was a conspiracy by the temples to use Noemi’s death to provoke a war between the Mystic Arts Order and Celestial Alliance, thus reaping the benefits.

“Wait! I remember!” At this time, Noemi seemed to have thought of something and suddenly raised her voice and said, “A few days ago, a strangely dressed man came to me to ask for directions.” During this time, I smelled a unique smell. I didn’t notice the smell at the time, but after a while, I fainted for no apparent reason. “Do you believe it was that person who gave me voodoo?”

“It’s very possible,” Dustin nodded.

“Do you still remember that person’s appearance?” Grace asked.

“Remember, I can still draw it.” Noemi nodded, then turned to Kassidy and said, “Kassidy, bring a pen and paper.”

“Okay.” She answered, quickly left, and came back with paper and a pen after some time. 

Noemi took the pen and paper, and after thinking for a while, she began to draw on the paper.

After a while, a face with clear features appeared in front of everyone.

Dustin couldn’t help but be secretly surprised by his exquisite painting skills.

With just one face-to-face encounter, she could clearly draw a person. This photographic memory was indeed very powerful.

“Here, this is the person.” Noemi handed the drawing paper to Grace.

After Grace looked at it, she handed it to Dustin.

After Dustin finished reading, Kassidy took him over again.

The person in the painting was about forty years old and had an unremarkable appearance.

If it weren’t for Noemi’s amazing memory, she might not be able to remember this ordinary face.

“Come here! Take a photo of this portrait and send it to all nearby Celestial Alliance disciples. We need to apprehend this individual within the next three days.” Kassidy didn’t waste any time and directly issued the order to k!ll him. Anyone who dared to harm Noemi, her sister, would have to pay a heavy price, no matter who the other party was.
