The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 389

Andrew, holding a large bouquet of fiery red roses, looked at Jessica with a deep and passionate gaze. His declaration came earnestly, "Jessica, I love you! I'm here today to sincerely confess my feelings to you!"

"Are you out of your mind? I have no interest in you! Get out now! And let me tell you, I'm already married—Daniel is my husband. So, please, stop harassing me!"

Jessica's revelation shocked Andrew. The country boy, Daniel, her husband? Impossible—that just couldn't be! After mentally processing the situation, Andrew let out a scornful chuckle.

"Jessica, do you think this act is funny? That country boy is nothing but your assistant; how can he possibly be your husband? You're Jessica, New York's top beauty, the celebrated CEO—how could you stoop to marry a country bumpkin?"

Too weary to explain, Jessica wrapped her arms around Daniel and kissed him squarely on the lips. It was Daniel's first kiss, which he found himself abruptly robbed of by Jessica.

"Now do you believe me?" she challenged Andrew after the kiss.

Andrew was stunned! Jessica had just kissed Daniel—to dismiss him of all people? She even kissed Daniel on the lips?

"You..."

Furious and seething, Andrew couldn't lash out at Jessica, so he turned his aggression towards Daniel.

"Country bumpkin, remember this. I will have someone cut off those lips of yours!"

Unable to bear the conversation any longer, Andrew threatened with a scowl.

"Jessica, besides confessing to you today, I'm also giving you one last chance. You still have the opportunity to change your mind. Agree to marry me and hand over the country bumpkin for me to deal with. Otherwise, TMO is finished!"

Daniel couldn't help but laugh.

"TMO is finished? In your mouth, Andrew, TMO has been doomed several times, hasn't it? Yet here we are; TMO is still doing just fine with no sign of collapse. So, what's going to happen this time? Enlighten us, Andrew!"

"Country bumpkin, do you think teaming up with The Grants means you can rest easy? The Grants may be one of New York's 'The Eight Families,' but they are at the very bottom, the least consequential of them all—they barely made it into The Eight Families. The truth is, The Armstrongs despise working with The Grants, and that's the only reason we gave TMO the opportunity!"
