The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129 You Can’t Bet with Him 

Daniel’s answer pleased Brittany, convincing her that the country boy had taken the bait. She repeated her point to ensure her plan would succeed. “Remember, you said it yourself–if you can’t multiply ten million by ten tonight, then you’re out. Disappear from The Matthews Organization and from Jessica’s sight 

forever!” 

“Okay!” Daniel agreed without hesitation. 

Seeing Daniel’s response sparked a plan in Andrew’s mind. This country boy dared to make such a claim; Andrew was determined to humiliate him thoroughly that night. “Daniel, are you sure you can turn ten million into a billion by tonight?” 

“Positive!” 

“Since Daniel is so confident, why don’t we make a bet?” 

“A bet?” 

Daniel knew Andrew was setting a trap, but he didn’t mind. He was curious to see what Andrew had in 

mind. So with a smile, Daniel asked, “How would you like to bet, Andrew?” 

“It’s simple. If you really manage to win a billion with your ten million, then I lose. If you don’t win a billion, then you, Daniel, lose. The loser has to get down on all fours and crawl around this venue, barking like a 

dog the whole time.” 

Andrew was confident that Daniel would lose, so he proposed this humiliating wager. At tonight’s Unusual Stones Exhibition attended by many of New York’s elite–not all, but at least a significant portion -it would be extremely shameful to crawl like a dog while barking on the ground. 

The Matthews, New York’s foremost family, couldn’t stomach such an insult. So if Daniel lost and crawled on the ground, Jessica would undoubtedly fire this embarrassingly defeated assistant. 

Without Jessica’s protection, Andrew would find it much easier to deal with Daniel.. 

Before Daniel could respond, Jessica cut him off. “You can’t agree to it!” 

She knew Andrew was up to no good and understood that Daniel couldn’t possibly win a billion with ten million. If Daniel accepted this bet, he’d be destined to lose a hundred percent. 

“Why can’t I agree? This bet Andrew’proposed sounds fun. Imagine, after I win a billion, Andrew will have to crawl around the venue like a dog and bark. Wouldn’t that be interesting?”
