An Understated Dominance

Chapter 1230 One Life For One Life

They had never seen someone so audacious before, breaking into the Grant family in broad daylight, single-handedly holding Brayden hostage. It was like striking a rock with an egg, courting death.

“Kid, do you see this? You’re surrounded now, and all around you are soldiers of the Grant family. What makes you think you can fight against me?” Brayden sneered. “If you don’t want to die, immediately release me and then sever your own meridians, kneel down and beg for mercy. Maybe then, I might spare your life!”

“Do you believe I lack the resolve to end you? Or do you presume you can dictate my actions?” Dustin’s voice remained cold and resolute.

“Hehe… do you have the audacity? Take a look around! You’re ensnared like a rat, with no way out. Your only recourse is to kneel and surrender!” Brayden retorted with arrogance.

“Dustin! Release Brayden at once and surrender the treasure, or both you and the Harmon family will face obliteration!” Kate’s threat reverberated loudly.

“You hold hostages, and so do I. One life for one life,” Dustin attempted to temper his simmering anger.
