The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 982

Catching his breath, Grant added, "That Golden Jade isn’t worth $80 million. You only fooled Aaron."

"Are you saying you're going to back out, Grant? Think twice! If you play dirty, you'll pay for it dearly. Because if you do, you’ll suffer a stomach pain that will humiliate you."

Grant smirked and shrugged, "Humiliated? What's going to happen to me?"

"Just you wait and see," Daniel said with a mischievous grin.

No sooner had he spoken, Grant's stomach began to cramp fiercely. The pain was followed by a strange warmth in his pants, and then, an overwhelming stench filled the air.

Did Grant just... soil himself?

Realizing his predicament, Grant quickly covered his nose, running off to the restroom. But wrong turn – he headed into the public restroom before darting into a private room. After an eternity, he emerged, freshly showered and in clean clothes, having doused himself in cologne.

But despite his efforts, everyone still found him particularly stinky. People quickly distanced themselves as he approached.

Daniel chuckled and asked, "How do you feel now, Grant? Believe in divine retribution yet? You wouldn’t yield, so divine justice stepped in."

Grant, red-faced, demanded, "What did you do to me, country bumpkin?"

"It wasn't me. It’s God's punishment because you refused to admit defeat. If you don’t kneel, it will get worse."

Daniel wasn’t threatening; he was stating facts. If Grant refused, further humiliation awaited.

Pointing accusingly at Daniel, Grant roared, "What is this country bumpkin mumbling? I won’t admit defeat to your tricks!"

Grant defiantly patted his belly, mocking Daniel.
