The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 325 How Dare You!

Before Daniel could even get a word in, Jennifer had rapidly counted down. She simply didn't want to give this country boy a chance.

"The countdown is over, so the bet is off the table! Which means, whatever you ask for, I'm not agreeing to it!"

"You won't agree? That's okay! If you want to play it this way, I can play along. I'll just go tell Beast that you and I have nothing to do with each other, and he can keep messing with your factory. And since I'm not linked to you in any way, whether you can walk out of Shore County today, well, that's up for debate."

Jennifer was fuming with anger but terrified at the same time.

"Country boy, what do you think you're doing?"

"I don't wanna do anything! You should be asking what Beast wants to do. The way he was looking at you was not as pure and innocent as my looks."

"Pure and innocent? I see you for what you are, a jerk!"

"Jennifer, don't tell me you thought I was going to ask you to sleep with me? That's why you rejected me before I could even speak?"

"Heh!"

Jennifer let out a mocking laugh and said coldly, as if she had seen right through him, "Is that not the case?"

"Of course not! Me, sleep with you? That'd be a loss for me! I wouldn't let you take advantage of me like that."

"What did you say? I'm taking advantage of you?"

"Absolutely! You'd be getting the better end of the deal, and I'd be at a loss. The last thing I like is being taken advantage of by you."

Even though Jennifer knew Daniel was lying, she couldn't help but ask, "So what's your condition?"

"Just that you bark three times like a dog."

"Get lost!"

Jennifer was so mad that she lashed out with a kick at Daniel. Just as her high heel was about to strike Daniel's shin, he dodged to the side, avoiding her attack. She missed and lost her balance, tottering on her heels. Daniel quickly reached out and caught her by the waist to prevent the stunning beauty from getting hurt.

"Let go of me, you creep!"

Jennifer yelled, and Daniel reluctantly let her go, resulting in a thud as she hit the ground.

"Ouch! Ouch, that hurts! You country bumpkin, I'm going to kill you!" NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Jennifer got up from the ground, disregarding her sore waist, and began hammering away at Daniel with her fists. Though her punches weren't painful—she was just a girl, after all—Daniel grinned and warned, "Keep that up, and I might just fight back!"

"You wouldn't dare?"

"Smack!"

Daniel playfully slapped her. Jennifer stood frozen in shock, then her face flushed with embarrassment.

"You..."

"What's up with you?"

"Waaa..."

Jennifer broke down in tears, which completely baffled Daniel.

"It was just a light tap, surely it's not that bad?"

"You... you're the worst, you creep, you big jerk!"
