An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1154
“I…” Sue was at a loss for words. She wanted to argue further but hesitated. She could sense that
Dahlia had grown angry.
“You useless trash!” Right then, Florence couldn’t hold back any longer and slapped Sue across the
face. She yelled, “You can’t even secure us a room? What good are you for? You’ve made a fool out of
me!”
“Madam Franklin, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.” Sue held her burning cheek. She held back her anger and
apologized profusely, appearing extremely subservient.
“What’s the point of apologizing? How are you going to resolve this issue? Do you know that we have
important guests arriving soon?” Florence snapped.
This useless person not only failed in her task but also humiliated her in front of Dustin. It was simply

“Madam Franklin, why don’t we head to Terra Room 1? The atmosphere there is quite pleasant,” Sue
suggested tentatively.
Florence delivered another slap across her face. She roared, “Are you stupid? People of our stature
should be seated in the Celestial Rooms. The Terra Rooms are nowhere near our status.”
“That’s right! There’s a world of difference between them. How are they even comparable?”
Julie crossed her arms, looking extremely dissatisfied. “Even Dustin gets to occupy a Celestial Room.
Are you implying that our status is beneath him?”
“I…” Sue was at a total loss as she covered her cheek. She never expected things to turn out this way.
Initially, she had planned to win over Dahlia’s group. Instead, she had landed herself in trouble and
made them unhappy.
And Dustin had caused this entire mess. The more she thought about it, the more resentful she
became.
“Forget about it, the Terra Rooms will do. Switch rooms for us.” Dahlia was unhappy, but she couldn’t
be bothered to argue further.
“I’ll have it arranged right away!” Sue was relieved and quickly got the waitresses to prepare the room.
“Wait!” Florence was unhappy. “Dahlia, how can you just let this matter go? Do you know where we
stand now? We are Dragonmarsh’s top aristocrats!
“No matter where we go, we deserve the highest level of treatment. How can an inferior Terra Room
compare to our status?”
“That’s right! We need the best room to reflect our status!” Julie chimed in. “Madam Franklin, the Terra
Rooms actually have a nice environment. They are by no means subpar. You’ll find out once you head
there.” Sue smiled apologetically.
“Shut up! They’re inferior if I say so!” Florence glared at her. Sue was so intimidated that she shrunk

Florence didn’t care about the ambiance. What she cared about was her reputation and status. Thus,
the rarer and more expensive something was, the more she desired it. She was determined to obtain it
at all costs.
“Mom, the Celestial Rooms are full. We’ll just have to make do,” Dahlia instructed. “No way! How can
we just make do? Don’t worry, I’ll handle this.”
Florence then turned to Dustin and said haughtily, “Rhys, I’m taking this room no matter what. Just
name your price.”
“Name my price? Are you trying to buy me off?”
“That’s right!” Florence lifted her head proudly. “I’m wealthy now. As long as you leave, I’ll pay whatever
amount you want.”
As she spoke, she retrieved a gold card from her bag, showing it off and waving it proudly in front of
Dustin. She looked exactly like a status seeker.
