The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 855

Jax was taken aback by the unexpected command. With disbelief written all over his face, he stared at Chloe and asked, “Chloe, why are you listening to this dumbass? Whatever he tells you to do, you just do it? You’re taking orders from him way too easily! Someone who didn’t know better might think you were his wife!”

Jax’s comment was clearly a provocation!

Upon hearing this, Chloe’s expression changed immediately. Daniel quickly jumped in to defuse the tension, chuckling as he said to her, “Chloe, Jax is trying to play matchmaker! He wants to introduce you, the captain, to me, as my wife.”

“Get lost! Who would ever want to be your wife?”

Chloe shot Daniel an annoyed glance, clearly disgusted. “Even if every man in the world were gone, there’s no way I would marry a little brat like you!”

“You won’t marry me? Well, even if every woman on Earth vanished, I wouldn’t marry you either!”

Daniel’s comeback stung Chloe’s pride.

Fuming, she stomped her foot and put her hands on her hips, pointing at Daniel’s nose as she shouted, “You little brat, who do you think you are to refuse to marry me? What gives you the right? If you could marry me, that would be your lucky day! Do you know what you’re saying? You wouldn’t marry me? You’re not even a prince; you’re just an ugly toad!”

“Chloe! Have you ever seen a toad? Toads don’t have any thoughts about women! They just eat little bugs.”

Daniel’s reply made Chloe burst into laughter in her annoyance.
