The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 823

Being in law enforcement, Jax might have his flaws, but he was a man of his word, willing to honor his losses. Watching the scene unfold, Chloe gave Daniel a thumbs up, praising, "You little brat, you were telling the truth!"

"Of course, Chloe! I always tell the truth, just like the fact that my dick is 8 inches. I haven’t met anyone who can match that. If you think I’m lying, we can always go on a date and I’ll let you experience it firsthand," Daniel boasted.

Chloe felt she was being flirted with. Although she wasn’t exactly angry, her face turned cold, and she asked icily, "You little brat, are you trying to mess with me?"

"Chloe, I wouldn’t dare flirt with you! If anything, you were teasing me first. You called me your grandson the first time we met. Isn’t that insulting? Who wouldn’t be bothered by such a comment?"

Daniel leaned in close to her ear and whispered in a barely audible tone, "Have you ever felt 8 inches inside you? Wanna try?"

His words made Chloe’s face turn beet red. She wished she could tear him apart right then and there. However, as the team’s captain, she regained her composure and her face quickly returned to its normal color.

"You little brat, didn’t you say there were no hostages, only wild boars in those buildings? If we go in and find hostages killed by the explosions, I’ll arrest you. And if we find neither hostages nor wild boars, I’ll still arrest you," Chloe declared, intent on exacting some personal revenge.

"Chloe, on what grounds would you arrest me?" Daniel asked.

"On what grounds? You think about it. If we don’t find any wild boars in there, you’ll be guilty of making a false report. You’ll be detained for disturbing public order," Chloe stated, fully aware of the laws. She could easily find a reason to detain Daniel, though for longer incarcerations, it would be up to the judicial system.

Chloe didn’t have any intention of making Daniel go to jail permanently. She merely wanted to give him a few days of detention as punishment for his cheekiness.

"If we find wild boar carcasses in there, will you reward me, Chloe?" Daniel queried.

"What kind of reward do you want?" Chloe countered.

"I provided crucial information to your team, leading to a major success. Plus, I helped you set off those bombs, saving many lives. Surely, I deserve some kind of reward, maybe a nice cash bonus?" Daniel suggested.

"Cash bonus? How much are you thinking?" Chloe inquired.

"Not asking for millions, but at least something like $100,000 or $50,000 would be decent," Daniel replied.

"$100,000? $50,000? Let me tell you, the most our department can give as a reward is $500! If you really help us capture those robbers tonight, I’ll request a $500 reward for you from the department. Additionally, I can nominate you for a Citizen’s Honor Certificate and a medal!" Chloe responded, laying out the realistic possibilities.
