An understated Dominance – Dahlia and Dustin Chapter 1423

Chapter 1423: Poison Creature

Isabela’s menacing demeanor sent shivers down Owen’s spine.

He had expected her to hesitate a bit, but she immediately demanded that Dustin suffer greatly.

After all, Dustin had helped her in the past. Wasn’t this punishment a bit too severe?

Thinking back to his own actions, Owen felt a bit uneasy.

Fortunately, he had the backing of the Stratford family. Otherwise, in the hands of this crazy woman, he didn’t even want to think about his miserable fate.

“Owen, is there a problem?” Isabela smiled again, displaying an innocent appearance, a complete contrast to her previous maliciousness.

It was like two completely different extremes.

“No, no problem!” Owen laughed heartily. “This kid deserves it. He offended my precious one and should pay the price!”

“Indeed, Owen, you always care about me,” Isabela said sweetly, pointing to the green bamboo tube. “Master Hudson, let’s use the poison in this one to teach that arrogant fool a lesson!”

“When you take someone’s money, you help them resolve their problems. Your call,” the man in black robes nodded without saying much.

He then cut off a piece of fabric from the clothing, dripped some blood onto it, and tossed it into the green bamboo tube. After completing these actions, he chanted a mysterious incantation with an air of mystery.

After his dramatic performance, he suddenly lifted the green cloth and said sharply, “Go!”

“Buzz!”

The moment the green cloth was lifted, a black poisonous insect shot out instantly, flying out of the room at an incredible speed.

“All done. We’ll have results within an hour,” the man in black robes said, shaking his sleeves before sitting back down to enjoy some tea and snacks.

“Thank you for your efforts, Master Hudson.”

Owen smiled slightly and waved his hand. “Bring in the wine!”

With his command, a sumptuous feast of food and wine was quickly brought in.

Along with the gold bars, there was also an exquisite wooden box.

Opening it revealed that it was filled with gold bars.

“Master Hudson, please accept this as a token of our appreciation,” Owen pushed the wooden box filled with gold bars forward.

“No problem. It’s my honor to assist Young Master Owen,” the man in black robes said, showing a rare smile as he naturally accepted the gold bars.
Compared to paper money, he preferred these shining gold items.

“Master Hudson, I’ll raise a toast to you, wishing for a pleasant future cooperation between us.”

Owen poured three glasses of wine, one for each of them.

After clinking glasses and taking a sip, they began to enjoy their drinks, and their spirits gradually lifted.

Owen was quite interested in occult knowledge, so he asked about it, and the man in black robes was willing to share his knowledge in return for the gold bars.

After some conversation, Owen learned that Master Hudson had come from the Witchcraft sect.

So-called occult knowledge was essentially witchcraft, just with a more appealing name.

Owen and the man in black robes were engaged in a lively discussion, while Isabela, sitting beside them, was feeling gloomy.

The topics the two men were discussing didn’t interest her at all, and she felt left out.

After three rounds of drinks and a satisfying meal, Isabela couldn’t hold back any longer and spoke up, “Master Hudson, you mentioned that we would see results within an hour. It’s been quite some time, and there hasn’t been any movement. Did your plan fail? The creature you released, could it have failed?”

“Hmm?”

Hearing this, the man in black robes suppressed his smile. “What’s this, Miss Isabela? Do you doubt my abilities?”

“I just find it strange and wanted to make sure there were no unexpected incidents,” Isabela furrowed her brow slightly.

“What kind of unexpected incident could there be? My poison creatures are carefully cultivated and have never failed. As long as they target their prey, even if the prey flees to the ends of the earth, it’s useless!” the man in black robes said confidently.

“If that’s the case, why is there still no sign of success? How can you be sure it worked?” Isabela persisted with her questions.
