The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 129

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."
