The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 936

Then Isla scoffed at Daniel, “What did you say? You want to join the Jade Gambling with just a hundred bucks?”

"Why not a hundred bucks?" Daniel shot back.

Isla rolled her eyes, “The cheapest original stone outside costs tens of thousands. Jade Gambling for just a hundred bucks? Do you think you're buying donkey dung in the village or something?"

“Come on, Isla! Are you saying a hundred bucks isn’t enough? Is that making you feel ashamed? You can't afford it, can you?” she teased.

“Can't afford it? Who said I can’t? Sure, I don’t have the cash, but my mom does!”

As soon as he said that, Daniel turned to Avery with a cheeky grin, “Hey Mom, can you lend me a million bucks? I want to have some fun!”

“Are you kidding me?” Avery spat back, looking utterly unimpressed. “Why would I lend you a million dollars?”

“Because you’re my mom! I've called you 'Mom' so many times. You even owe me my prize money! Was that all for nothing? Plus, it’s a loan! I’ll pay you back two million later. How’s that?”

Daniel’s proposal earned him a scoff from Isla.

Daniel then looked at Isla, “How about you invest in me?

“Invest in you?” Isla raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean by that?”

“Just lend me a million bucks for Jade Gambling. If I win, we split the profits. If I lose, it’s on you!”
