An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1348
There were around a dozen gaming tables offering different games, and the guests scattered across
different tables.
In the VIP lounge, guests had a beautiful waitress attending exclusively to their needs as they gambled.
It was the epitome of excellent customer service.
Only the rich and famous could enter the VIP lounge. The simplest bet could casually start with
hundreds of thousands or even millions.
For the generous ones, they would even wager tens of millions and hundreds of millions. This was
something a commoner could never achieve in their lifetime.
Dustin immediately spotted two familiar figures seated at the central table as soon as he entered the
VIP lounge. It was Cody and Harper, With Harper’s status, it was obvious that she couldn’t have
entered the VIP lounge alone. Cody must be the person who wanted to meet him.
“Hey! Dustin’s here! Join us! Let’s play a few rounds.” Cody immediately stood up and welcomed

Though he wore a friendly smile, there was a hint of chilliness in his eyes.
“Mr. Ostrower, what is the real purpose of our meeting?” Dustin asked frankly. “There’s no need to rush.
Let’s play a few rounds before we get to it.” Cody smiled and snapped his fingers at the waitress next
to him.
“Get five million worth of gambling chips for this gentleman and put it on my tab.”
“Got it.” The beautiful waitress responded quickly and soon returned with a few dozen crystal chips.
“Dustin, please enjoy yourself today. If you win, you can take it all. I’ll foot the bill if you lose.” Cody
laughed and said generously.
“I don’t like gambling. Nor do I like beating around the bush. Please tell me the purpose of this meeting
now.”
Dustin wasn’t impressed. This place was a gambler’s heaven. It was too bad that he wasn’t interested
at all. “You’re really a straightforward person, Dustin.” Cody laughed awkwardly.
“I asked you to meet me today because I wanted to introduce you to someone influential in Millsburg. If
he’s got your back, you can practically do anything you want in this area!”
“Is that so? Who might that be?” Dustin asked.
“This person is the owner of the Golden Balcony, Pablo Hans!” Cody introduced proudly.
“Sorry, I’ve never heard of him,” Dustin replied casually.
“Hmph! You don’t even know who Mr. Hans is. You’re such a bumpkin!” Harper, who was seated on the
side, frowned to show her disapproval.
In Millsburg, Mr. Hans was a revered and powerful figure. He was the only one who could openly
challenge the Swanson and Welch family.
Those who knew their way around must have heard of Mr. Hans.
“Is Mr. Hans really this amazing? Do you think he could survive a blow from my sword?” Maximus said
coldly.
“Dustin, is this your friend?” Cody looked him up and down with an unfriendly gaze.

“Hey, you! You’d better keep a lid on it. The whole city belongs to Mr. Hans. You might lose your life if
you aren’t careful.”
Maximus was about to retort, but Dustin raised his hand and stopped him. “I’m not interested in
knowing Mr. Hans. I just want to find out about Cinna Shaffer.”
The door to the VIP lounge swung open suddenly as soon as he said that. A tall and strappy middle-
aged man in a suit walked in with his nose in the air and a cigar between his lips. He looked as burly as
a bear.
His presence was very imposing even though he was just standing there. This man was the owner of
the Golden Balcony and the king of Millsburg’s underworld, Pablo Hans!
“Mr. Hans has arrived. It’s your lucky day!” Cody flashed him a sinister smile and looked as if
something interesting was about to happen.
“Hello, Mr. Hans!”
“Good evening, Mr. Hans!”
When Pablo walked through the door, the guests in the VIP lounge got up to greet him respectfully.
“As you were, please.” Pablo stretched his hands out and lowered them. He then walked toward Cody
and said loftily, “Cody, where is the person I wanted to see?”
“When have I ever failed you?” Cody smirked secretly and gestured toward Dustin.
“Here, he’s the person you’re looking for!”
