Chapter 178 Don't Let Daniel Get Away
Jessica's reply utterly stunned Joseph. He couldn’t believe it and asked his granddaughter, “What did you just say? You’re saying Daniel chased away an Earth Fiend martial master?”
“Yes! That martial master was like a beginner in front of him; he couldn’t even get close to Daniel. He tried to attack Daniel twice with a curved knife, but every time he approached, Daniel just kicked him away with a single blow.”
“A curved knife?" Joseph pondered over a sip of wine. "Could it be The White Eyebrow Ryan?”
“Yes! That guy did mention it. He seemed to be called The White Eyebrow Ryan! He also claimed he was ranked 38th among The 72 Martial Masters!”
“Ryan couldn’t defeat Daniel? That’s really unexpected!” Joseph exclaimed in surprise.
“It was more than that. He was like a child in front of Daniel.”
“Really? Even those ranked toward the bottom of The 36 Martial Masters, I imagine, couldn’t handle Ryan that easily. If Daniel managed to take care of Ryan so easily, doesn’t that mean he’s stronger than at least half of The 36 Martial Masters? Jessica, you must not let Daniel get away! You have to find Daniel and you best get pregnant with his child. No matter what you have to do, you must get him to join The Matthews family!”
“Grandpa, what are you talking about? I won’t go looking for that Daniel! Why should I have his child? I'm not that cheap! I won’t do it!”
Jessica would never pursue Daniel proactively! At most, she’d just not resist as strongly if Daniel took advantage of her. She might allow him some leeway, but definitely not too much!
Joseph went to another room and retrieved a wooden box secured with a golden lock, passing it to Jessica. “Inside is The Grass of the Sealed Dragon, a wedding gift I’ve prepared for you. Take it toNôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Daniel and tell him that once you're married, The Grass of the Sealed Dragon will belong to him.”
“Grandpa, what are you saying?”
“Since you don't want to be proactive, you can offer Daniel a little temptation to encourage him!”
“Temptation? Grandpa, are you saying that your granddaughter’s charm is less than The Grass of the Sealed Dragon?”
“Uh…”
Joseph was taken aback, hurriedly explaining, “That's not what I meant.”
“If that’s not what you mean, then why are you telling me to use The Grass of the Sealed Dragon to tempt him? Are you saying if my wedding gift wasn't The Grass of the Sealed Dragon, he wouldn't marry me?”
“No, you've misunderstood. The Grass of the Sealed Dragon was something I promised as a gift when I made a marriage pact with his master. I want you to show it to Daniel to make clear that we The Matthews keep our promises and honor our commitments. According to our agreement, this Grass of the Sealed Dragon has been well preserved. You can have Daniel check it, just to ensure he doesn't accuse us of breaking our word.”
“Hmph!”
Jessica pouted and took the wooden box.
“I don’t want to show that to Daniel!”
Leaving Joseph’s place, Jessica ran towards Daniel's holding the box, not to let him check it. She was just curious; what did The Grass of the Sealed Dragon look like? She wanted Daniel to open
the box to show her what it looked like—nothing more.
The villa’s gate was open, as was the front door. Holding the box, Jessica entered the villa.
