An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1309
“Ms. Camron, that’s a bit too much,” Cody finally spoke up. “Harper is my junior. It’s not exactly
appropriate for you to make that comment with me here, don’t you think?”
“Oh? Mr. Ostrower is here as well? My apologies.” Lana feigned astonishment. She then continued with
a sly smile, It’s no wonder Harper was able to get in. It turns out you were the one backing her.
“I’m just curious, as the scion of a noble and respected family, how come you have such bad taste?
You’re actually attracted to this bland woman?
“Hey! Who are you calling bland?”
Harper was enraged at her words. She was about to act out but was quickly held back by those around
her. The Camron family’s influence was slightly stronger than the Ostrower family’s. If Harper were to
lay her hand on Lana, not even Cody would be able to get her out of trouble.

Lana smirked, her gaze provocative.
She thoroughly enjoyed seeing Harper fuming in anger, knowing Harper could do nothing about it.
“You… You’re too much!”
Harper was about to launch into an angry tirade when Cody stopped her. ” Ms. Camron, let’s not push
it. We’re here for a meal and don’t wish for trouble. I hope you’ll let us off the hook.
“Alright, for your sake, I’ll let her off for now.”
Lana glanced at Harper and smiled faintly. “Oh, by the way, Ms. Talented, it seems Regal Court will
host a literary event later. Don’t you consider yourself knowledgeable? I hope you won’t embarrass
yourself later.”
“Hmph? Do you think I’ll lose? What a joke.” Harper had a grim expression. When it comes to literature,
not even ten of you combined are a match for me!”
“Oh, really? Since you’re so confident, why don’t we have a little competition? “Lana smiled teasingly.
“Bring it on! Do you think I’m afraid of you?” Harper wasn’t afraid. While she felt inferior in terms of
family background and wealth, she could easily outshine Lana in terms of talent. A pampered rich girl
could never compare to her.
“There’s nothing interesting if it’s just a competition. Are you brave enough to up the stakes?” Lana
challenged.
“What do you want to bet on?” Harper raised her head defiantly. “You don’t have anything of value on
you, so how about you bet Harmony Healers?” Lana’s proposal was shocking.
“If you lose, you’ll hand Harmony Healers to me. If you win, I’ll give you one billion. How about it?”
“Harmony Healers?” Harper frowned at her words. This woman was clearly up to no good. “Harmony

“The real question is, do you dare bet on it? If you don’t, you’d better steer clear of me in the future,”
Lana said with a smile.
“What’s there to be afraid of? Let’s do it!” Harper was incited and readily agreed. “Harper! Stop
messing around!” Brooke’s expression shifted dramatically as he tried to stop her.
“Harmony Healers is an important business to us. It’s not something for you to use as a wager!” he
exclaimed. Betting a sum of money was one thing, but betting their entire business was a reckless
move. If she lost, it would be catastrophic.
“Grandpa, don’t worry. I’m confident I’ll win. She’s practically handing us money!” Harper was highly
confident.
“Do you think money is that easy to come by? It’s too risky to use Harmony Healers as a bet!” Brooke
scolded her.
“Why not? I’m going to win. As long as I dare make a bet, it’d be like taking candy from a baby. This is
an opportunity that we can’t miss!” Harper said boldly.
