Chapter 1532 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
âYour perfume smells strange.â Abigail sniffed before she spoke unexpectedly.
âReally?â Dahlia sniffed but didnât notice anything unusual.
âIâm using a regular perfume that many people use too.â
âItâs not the perfume thatâs the problem. Someone added something to your perfume, probably a hint of blood.
âAbigail took another sniff and concluded.
âYouâre right.â Dustin nodded in agreement.
âIt would be difficult for an ordinary person to detect the faint scent of blood, but animals have a unique advantage in this regard. The Onyxclaw must have sensed it.â
âI see.â Dahlia nodded in realization. No wonder the Onyxclaw turned aggressive the moment it approached. It turned out that someone had tampered with her perfume.
âRhett ⦠I have another question.â
Abigail tapped her chin thoughtfully and asked, âYou mentioned earlier that the Onyxclaw is an intelligent creature. Itâs also been tamed. It shouldnât have turned so aggressive if it had just been a hint of blood, right?â
âThatâs the main issue, â Dustin said with a serious expression.
âWhat if the scent of blood on Dahlia is of the Onyxclawâs companion or offspring?â
âI get it!â Abigail suddenly understood.
âThe Onyxclaw could smell its family and mistakenly thought Dahlia had killed them. That is why it suddenly went berserk.â
âMost likely.â Dustin nodded.
The Onyxclaw wouldnât have gone so crazy unless driven by vengeance.
âWhat a cunning scheme!â
Abigail marveled, âFirst, they presented the Onyxclaw as a gift, then spread a rumor to lay the foundation. Next, they used the scent of blood to mark their target.
âIf Ms. Nicholson had been killed, not only would she have died in vain, but she would also endure blame and suspicion. What a perfect scheme!â
Upon hearing this, Dahlia furrowed her brow, her expression turning grim. If they were right, then she had an idea who the mastermind was. The only person brave enough to pull off such a scheme among the Moseysâ was Anders.
However, she couldnât understand his motive. They held no grudges, so why would he attempt to kill her?
âMs. Nicholson, I believe you already know who is behind this. You must be extremely cautious in the days to come, âDustin warned solemnly.
Someone as strong-willed as Anders wouldnât give up easily once they set their minds on something. Even though his attempt today had failed, he would definitely find another opportunity next time. Even though Dahlia was protected by Sir Mosey, she was still powerless before Anders.
âThank you for the reminder, Mr. Adams. I will always be alert.â Dahlia nodded. After a moment of hesitation, Dustin eventually pulled out a name card and handed it over. âIf you ever encounter danger, calling this number should help.â
âThank you,â Dahlia accepted it with a faint smile. Since he could subdue the Onyxclaw effortlessly, he must be no ordinary person. Being his friend would be an advantage.
While they were chatting, the door to the lounge suddenly swung open. Following closely, Anders walked in with a dark expression, accompanied by a team of guards.
âHalt the program, everyone, on your feet! A thief has robbed the Moseysâ mansion, and Iâm conducting a search! âAndersâ authoritative voice immediately captured everyoneâs attention.
