The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 155

Chapter 155 Come Home with Me 

“Psh!” Isabella scoffed, rolling her eyes as she flatly refused. “Nope, I don’t want to lend you money!” 

“Don’t want to? Beautiful, does that mean you have a billion in liquid assets? Listen, if 

you lend me a billion, I promise to give you back 11 billion by midnight tonight.” 

Isabella’s interest was piqued the moment Daniel mentioned this. “When you were 

asking Jessica for money, you offered a fifty percent interest on ten million. Now you 

come to me, and the interest you’re offering has drastically shrunk? What, you think just because I look nice and friendly, I’m easy to fool? If you want to borrow money, 

that’s fine! But the interest has to be higher than what you offered Jessica.” 

After some thought, Isabella laid out her terms. “You want to borrow a billion from 

me, okay, but after you’re done with your bet with Andrew, you’d have to pay me back 

18 billion.” 

Daniel didn’t immediately agree; he turned to look at Jessica. “Darling, you see, this 

lady is willing to lend me a billion. So now you have a choice. I really need this 

money, so I’ll accept any terms she sets. The question is, will you lend me the money, 

or shall I take hers?” 

The fact that Daniel was calling this woman beautiful and flirting with her had 

already irked Jessica. Was he now using that same woman to threaten her? 

Upon hearing this, Jessica was instantly furious! “Go borrow from whomever you 

please! I’m not lending you any money!” 

Jessica was truly angry. How could Daniel be so thoughtless? Andrew was obviously 

setting a trap, and Daniel was walking right into it like a fool. 

Isaac was known as the king of gamblers, and there was no one in the entire USA 

who could beat him at gambling. If Daniel accepted this bet, his chances of winning certainly weren’t one hundred percent; in fact, they were not great at all. To gamble a 

billion without a sizable chance of winning–wasn’t that the act of a fool? 

Rejected by Jessica, Daniel was not disheartened at all. After all, he had given her all 

due respect. Now, if he borrowed money from Isabella, Jessica had no right to blame 

him he had come to her first, and she turned him down. 

As for Isabella’s conditions–to borrow a billion and pay back 18 billion–Daniel was indifferent. Isabella was his fiancée, and her wedding gift would be The Grass of Tamed Dragon, which was what he was really interested in. He didn’t care about the money because, after all, whatever a man earns should be taken care of by his 

beloved! 

If Daniel borrowed a billion from his beloved and turned it into 20 billion, paying back 18 billion would still leave him with 2 billion in spending cash, which didn’t seem like 

a bad deal at all. 

“Jessica, then I’m going to borrow the money from that beautiful lady, okay?” Daniel gave her one last chance to object, just in case she changed her mind later. 

“Do you really think she’ll lend it to you? She was probably just joking with you, and 

you’re taking it seriously?” 

“Beautiful women don’t lie to me. Jessica, we’ve known each other for so long, you’re 

beautiful, and you’ve never lied to me, have you?” 

“You…” Jessica was caught between irritation and amusement. With a roll of her 

eyes, she chided, “Nonsense!” 

Then, crossing her arms, she watched Daniel with a playful smirk. “I’d love to see how you’re going to borrow a billion from that lady! And if you can’t, you come straight home with me!”
