An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori novel Chapter 743

"I had just finished reporting back to the military base, so I decided to drop by." Gavin Killian smiled.

"Greetings, Mr. Killian." Dahlia tried to stand up.

"No need for formalities." Gavin placed a hand on her shoulder to keep her seated. "You need to rest, Ms. Nicholson. You're hurt."

"It's nothing." Dahlia smiled.

"And this is?" Dustin looked at Gavin, puzzled.

He could tell from the badge on Gavin's arm that he was a major general. For someone to be a general in his thirties, he must either be from an influential family or be incredibly talented.

"This is Mr. Killian. He was the one who saved me this morning," Dahlia introduced.

This morning's incident was still fresh in her mind. Without Gavin's help, she'd be dead by now.

"I see. Thank you, Mr. Killian." Dustin thanked.

"It was nothing," Gavin answered with a smile. "And you are?"

"Oh, he's my friend, Dustin Rhys." Dahlia blurted.

"Friend?" Dustin frowned, unhappy with her answer. Still, he regained his composure after a few seconds.

"Are you serious, Mr. Killian? Are you going to give us a Panax root?" Julie asked with disbelief in her eyes.

"Of course. I always keep my word." Gavin puffed out his chest.

"Gosh, thank you so much!" Julie was overjoyed.

"You're such a kind man, Mr. Killian!" Florence and Victoria were happy as well.

Just moments ago, they were thinking hard, trying to find a way to obtain a Panax root. They never thought they'd get one so soon.

Unlike Dustin, who was stubborn and stingy, Gavin seemed much more generous and honorable.
