The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 550

Maya turned to Jessica with a mischievous smile. "Jessica, you're betting so much money on this country boy. If you end up losing all of it, what will you do? Is your little company even capable of handling such a bet?"

As Maya spoke, an idea suddenly struck her. "Or maybe you borrowed this money from the bank? Or perhaps you’re misusing funds owed to someone else?"

"What does it concern you?" Jessica replied coldly.

Maya let out a mocking laugh and said, "You're right, it doesn't concern me. But as your old classmate, I feel the need to remind you. If you borrowed this money from the bank or if it’s funds from your business and you misuse it, and if Daniel ends up losing, you won't be able to cover the shortfall. That could land you in jail. Imagine going to jail over such a country bumpkin—it's not worth it!"

Maya's words were meant to mock Jessica, but they also planted a seed of thought in Wyatt, who had not considered this angle. The more he thought about Maya's suggestion, the more his mind raced.

If Jessica really was betting with borrowed money or misappropriated funds, she could indeed end up in prison if unable to recover the loss. Then, if Wyatt were to offer a helping hand, perhaps his longtime crush and the flawless beauty of his dreams would be grateful enough to reciprocate—maybe even with her affections.
