The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 379

"What do you mean, your mother-in-law! Stop playing dumb! You and Jessica, you're not suitable! I've come here as a cousin to make Jessica see through you, the country bumpkin, and then to kick you to the curb!"

"Cuz, having Jessica kick me out is a bit unrealistic," Daniel responded.

"Why is it unrealistic?"

"You’re hoping for a chance with her once I’m out of the picture, aren’t you?!"

Daniel's remark turned Jessica's face green with fury. She reached over from the driver's seat and aimed a smack at Daniel's chest. But he dodged back, and her hand slid down. Both Beauty's shock and Jessica's embarrassment were palpable – she wished she could just disappear.

"Indecent!"

Out of embarrassment, she scolded Daniel.

"Who knows who’s being indecent."

"You dare talk back?"

"I could even put my foot in your mouth!"

"You..."

Enraged, Jessica clenched her fists and shouted, "Get out of the car!"

"I won’t!"

"If you don't get out, then shut your mouth! If you dare spout nonsense again, I'll sew it shut!"
