The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154 Are You Asking Me Out? 

Taccepted Andrew’s challenge. Whoever loses will pay up a billion!” Daniel’s bold 

declaration left Jessica speechless. She barely resisted the urge to sock him. At this 

moment, she wished she could stitch his mouth shut to prevent any more talk about 

accepting this insane bet. 

Daniel’s answer had Andrew grinning in triumph. He turned to Jessica, smugly 

asking, “Jessica, isn’t it clear enough? He said he’s betting a billion with me. Now, 

you have two choices, Jessica. The first option is to lend this country boy a billion, 

and then watch him lose it to me. That loss will bankrupt The Matthews 

Organization, bringing down The Matthews family overnight! 

“The second option is to kick him to the curb, erase him from your world. That way, 

whatever he bets with me–be it a billion or a hundred billion–it won’t have anything to do with you or The Matthews.” 

Andrew’s objective was crystal clear: he wanted to drive a wedge between Jessica 

and Daniel. If Daniel was cast out, he’d be like a dog without an owner, and no one 

would have his back. Andrew could do as he pleased with the now defenseless 

country boy. 

Jessica glared at Daniel, her voice taking on the tone of an exasperated partner, “You 

take back what you just said! You are not going through with that bet with Andrew! If 

you dare bet with him, I am done with you!” 

Originally, she wanted to say, “If you dare bet with him, I’ll dump you.” However, in the 

end, she couldn’t bring herself to utter those words. 

“Honey, I can listen to you about anything, but not this. Andrew has challenged me, and if I don’t accept, wouldn’t that be embarrassing? It’s just a billion; it’s not like I can’t come up with it! If you really can’t get the billion, I understand, and I can ask 

someone else to lend it to me!” 

“You…” Jessica stamped her foot in frustration. 

Brittany caught something off in Daniel’s words. But Jessica seemed to have missed 

the underlying meaning entirely. Brittany hastily pointed it out to Jessica, “Jessica, 

can you believe this country boy just called you ‘dear‘?” 

* home bs Daniel with a stem face and asked 

to 

billion Team? pine would even lend your a billion?” 

The 

turn it will you let me go through with this bet with Andrew?”
