The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 159

"What did you say? We have to transfer a billion into a joint account ahead of time?" Andrew asked.

"Of course! Are you just full of hot air? When I suggested transferring the money into a joint account first, did you get scared?" Isabella taunted Andrew, smilingly cornering him into a commitment.

"Scared? Who told you I'm scared? Me, Andrew, scared of betting against a country boy? You must be joking," Andrew retorted, then continued, addressing Isabella, "Are you sure you can come up with a billion to lend to this country boy? You do know if he loses, there's no way he can repay you."

"Don't worry, I believe in Daniel. Even if I don’t believe him, I believe in Jessica! Jessica will definitely help Daniel repay the money. After all, if Daniel can't repay what he owes me, then he will have to be my assistant. And I'm pretty confident Jessica wouldn't let that happen."

With that explanation, Andrew quickly understood. "Beautiful, you indeed have a good plan! If this country boy wins, you'll effortlessly earn ten billion. Of course, he has no chance of winning. If he loses, you’ll go to Jessica for the ten billion? So even if he loses, you're not at a loss. But consider this—ten billion isn't a small sum, and this country boy, as I've said, is just that—a country boy. He’s not that important to Jessica. If you think she'd help him repay a debt of ten billion, that's absolutely impossible."

"Stop wasting time, Andrew, do you want to play or not? Cut that crap! If you're afraid to lose, I suggest you quickly concede defeat to Daniel!"

"What are you talking about? Okay, let's start."

Andrew agreed.

Isabella made a phone call, and soon, a woman in her thirties, dressed in a professional suit and looking quite alluring in her high heels, approached them. She was Scarlett Clark, the general manager of King’s and Isabella’s secretary.
