An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1254

Despite her shameless and disgraceful behavior, she was only concerned about her life now. She was

betting on whether her father would be willing to sacrifice himself for her.

“Kate Harmon! Are you even human? How could you accuse your father to clear yourself of guilt?

You’re worse than an animal!”

“That’s right! Your father worked hard to raise you, yet you’re framing him? It’s one thing to be

ungrateful, but this is too much!”

“What an unfilial child! You’re a monster!”

The Harmons rebuked her angrily. Kate’s unfilial behavior angered them. She caused this mess, yet

she wanted her father to bear the blame. She had no conscience at all.

“Shut up! All of you shut up!” Kate was furious and yelled repeatedly. She then turned her attention

back to Trent and appeared pitiful once again.” Dad, you watched me grow up. You’ve always been so

fond of me. You certainly can’t bear to see me die, right?

“You’re already old and have a few years left to live. But I’m still young. I have a beautiful life and future

ahead of me. I don’t want to die here!

“Dad! Hurry up and confess to your crimes! I will lose my life if you don’t do it!” Kate grew agitated. Her

voice grew louder and louder until she became hysterical.

Her once beautiful face now looked like a complete maniac. “Kate, you’re right. I’m indeed guilty, and I

admit it.” Seeing his deranged daughter, Trent smiled bitterly.

His gaze had no anger nor hate, only pity and headache. But above all, he felt helpless. At that

moment, he deeply regretted his decision back then.

He shouldn’t have fought for power, he shouldn’t have forced Hector from his position, and he never

should have trusted the Grants.

Because of his greed, he had made the wrong decision and walked down a destructive path. And

ultimately, it led to today. He had to take responsibility for breaking up the Harmons, and he also had to

take responsibility for Hector’s death.

But most importantly, he had to take responsibility for his daughter’s spiral into madness. He was a

sinner, an unforgivable sinner. If he could trade his life for his daughter’s, he would do so willingly.

“There! Did you hear that? My father confessed!

“He confessed to his crimes!” Kate’s expression brimmed with delight. It was as if she had managed to

seize a lifeline.

“Mr. Trent, what are you saying? It was Kate’s fault. Why are you taking the blame?”

“That right, Mr. Trent. There’s no reason to protect a disgraceful daughter like her. Just let her face the

consequences!”

The Harmons spoke up indignantly. They were bewildered.

“That’s enough!” Trent raised his hand to silence them. Taking a deep breath, he continued calmly, “I

was the one who led the Harmons into this predicament. I committed deeds I never should have,

resulting in this irreparable outcome.

“I’m ashamed before the family, Hector, and all of you. I … I deserve more than death.”

The crowd was stunned by his words.. Was he seeking death?

“Dustin…” Trent turned around slowly. His gaze was serene when he said, “I did everything. I’m willing

to take accountability for my actions. I only hope you will spare my daughter and the rest of the

Harmons.”

“You’re in no position to negotiate,” Dustin responded coldly. “You’re right. I’m not worthy. I’m just a

criminal.” Trent let out a self- deprecating chuckle.

With a complex mix of emotions, he turned to Kate. He spoke softly, “Kate, I’m sorry. This is all I can do

for you. I’m not strong enough to protect you.

“I just hope you will stay safe forever. I’m leaving now…” “Trent picked up the knife from the ground

and slashed his neck.

Right there and then, he died at his own hand.
