The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 321

After Beast's messy retreat, he knew he had to rush back, clean off all the filth, and then return with his armed crew. As the boss of Shore County's underworld, he relied not only on his fists but also on a squad of gunmen. With guns in hand, who would dare to disobey?

When Beast left, Jennifer immediately turned on Daniel, poking a finger angrily at his nose. "Country boy, you’ve gotten me killed!"

"Are you dead yet?"

Daniel reached out and gave Jennifer's waist a playful poke.

"Ah!" She let out a loud scream.

"What the hell, country boy?"

"You said you were dead, right? So, I just wanted to check if you really were. If you can still scream, and scream so nicely, then it seems you're very much alive."

Jennifer was livid, almost ready to physically consume Daniel in her wrath. The country boy was getting bolder, how dare he start making moves on her so casually? What drove her insane was that when Daniel reached out to poke her, she saw it coming and could have dodged, but she didn't. She just stood there rigid, letting that country bumpkin poke her. No man had ever touched her waist, and now that Daniel had, she felt like she had suffered a massive loss, as if her body was suddenly unclean.

No, this would not do. She had to settle the score with that country boy. She needed compensation for her emotional distress.

"You just toppled all of Beast's men and threw him into the septic tank. Oh, I remember now, the guys we ran into earlier were led by his son, so you dumped him into the septic tank too. Now you've really offended Beast! You need to deal with the mess you've created yourself!"

Jennifer's line of thinking was something Daniel, clever as he was, could easily guess.

"Jennifer, you brought me to Shore County. Isn’t it because you want me to handle this trouble called Beast?"

"It's your honor! For a country boy like you to run errands for me is your good fortune!"

"I'm not interested in running errands for you, though I don't mind warming your bed," Daniel responded with a mischievous chuckle.

No matter what, Jennifer had once been his fiancée. Most importantly, she was beautiful and had a hot figure. Such a waste if another man got her!

So, it wasn't like Daniel had absolutely no feelings for Jennifer. Aren't all men greedy? Any beautiful woman they see, they wish they could have all to themselves.

"Get lost! You son of a gun, you better stop dreaming! You better stay away from me! If you dare climb into my bed, I'll kick you right out!"

"What, you don’t like it on the bed? The floor? Outdoors? Whatever you prefer, I'm game."

"Quit your nonsense and think of a way to deal with the mess you've made today. You've offended Beast, and he will stop at nothing to toss you into a septic tank, making you drink up all that filth until it's clean!"
