The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 189

Brittany was astounded by Jessica's seeming indifference to Daniel's remarks. She thought Jessica was far too fond of this country boy. Brittany felt that Jessica couldn't let Daniel off this easily; he couldn't be allowed to get over it so smoothly. So, Brittany decided to play her trump card.

"Jessica, this country nobody has caused a huge disaster. You have no idea what trouble he’s made! If you don't fire him immediately and clarify his relationship with The Matthews Organization, we could be ruined!"

Jessica responded, slightly amused by the exaggeration, "According to you, The Matthews Organization has been ruined many times over because of Daniel, but aren't we still doing pretty well? Just tell me what happened."

To achieve her goal, Brittany didn't immediately reveal her news. Instead, she prodded Jessica. "Jessica, do you remember this country nobody's big talk?"

"There's so much of it I can't even keep track—which one?"

"Which one could it be? Of course, it's the one about Justin! Didn't he promise to get Justin to move out of Windows Street within three days and have him pay The Matthews Organization a billion dollars?"

"So, you're trying to say that the three days are up and Justin hasn't moved out and he hasn't paid us a billion?"

"No, that's not it! Justin agreed to move, and he paid. He gave us fifteen billion!"

Brittany's words shocked Jessica. She quickly turned to Daniel, "Is what Brittany is saying true?"

Daniel pulled out his phone, tapped the screen a few times, and then Jessica's phone beeped—a transfer of fifteen billion dollars had just landed in her account.

"Tyler?"

Jessica searched her memory but couldn't recall anything about that name. So, she asked Brittany, "Who is Tyler?"

"Woods' son, his only child!"

"And who is Woods?"

"Woods is a martial arts master, one of 'The 72 Masters' on the US martial arts masters ranking! This country boy has angered Woods, and he surely won't survive now. If you don't sever ties with him fast enough, Jessica, you might get caught in the crossfire, and even The Matthews Organization could be impacted. 'The 72 Masters,' each is a top martial arts expert, and they can kill a man with just one punch. Each one of them is an extremely terrifying demon!"
