The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 158

Chapter 158 The Joint Account 

Daniel didn’t respond immediately but instead turned to Jessica. “Jessica, can I agree to this beautiful lady’s condition?” 

“You decide for yourself! I’m not interested in managing you! But let me remind you, you’re still my assistant. If you dare work part–time for someone else, I’ll break your legs!” Jessica was angry, and her words served as a final warning to Daniel, also setting her boundaries. 

That is, Daniel could borrow a billion from Isabella, but he can’t lose. Jessica knew 

Daniel wasn’t stupid; if he wasn’t sure he could win, he wouldn’t borrow such an 

amount.I 

Seeing Daniel always consulting Jessica for decisions piqued Isabella’s jealousy, like 

her man was being wooed away by another woman. 

“Jessica is not stopping you now, you have to decide. Now, make up your mind! Do 

you want to borrow this billion or not? If not, you’ll have to concede defeat to Andrew. 

“I, of course, want to borrow the billion! I won’t lose! But if I help you win ten billion, 

beautiful, shouldn’t you treat me to a meal?” Daniel half–jokingly suggested. 

“Don’t you dare!” Jessica was quick to counter. 

“Can’t I even ask another woman to treat me to a meal?” Daniel asked. 

“No!” 

“Why not?” 

“Because you are my assistant. You’re working 24/7. If you dare go out to eat with 

another woman, that’s absenteeism!” 

Isabella was amused by Jessica’s anxious behavior. “Daniel, it seems Jessica is very demanding of you. I wonder if Jessica would stop you from dining with a man? 

Would that be considered absenteeism too?” 

Jessica glared at Isabella coldly. “Daniel is my assistant. How I manage him is my

business. What has it got to do with you?” 

“If it’s just as an assistant, then no, it has nothing to do with me. But it sounds like Daniel is more than just an assistant to you, isn’t it? I’ve never seen a boss with so many demands on an assistant; it’s almost like he’s your husband!”
