The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 553

Wyatt was worried that Maya wouldn't be willing to lend him the money, so he urged her, “Once I beat this country boy, I'll pay you right back! I'm sure he's going to lose this time.”

Maya pondered for a moment, convinced Daniel would lose. Such a golden opportunity to strike it rich lay before her; how could she let it slip away? Tentatively, she asked Wyatt, “With all your wealth, could you maybe lend me a bit more so I can win big?”

Hearing her request, Wyatt was immediately excited. But being the crafty fox that he was, he couldn't let his excitement show.

Hiding his eagerness behind a small smile, Wyatt asked, “How much are you thinking of borrowing, Maya?”

“Not too much. Just a hundred million will do. I want to win a hundred million from this country boy.”

Seeing that she took the bait, Wyatt gently reminded her with a smile, “Maya, although we're old classmates, a hundred million isn't a small sum. You'll need to give me some collateral. Betting with this country boy has a 99.999% chance of winning, but there's still that tiny 0.001% chance of losing.

Just in case, if you lost, you wouldn't be able to pay back a hundred million, right? So for the security of my funds, you need to provide some sort of promise as collateral.”
