Chapter 146 Another Bet
âCountry boy, did you hear what Henry said? He said that only a fool would spend twenty million on your Blood Jade. Now I really want to see what magic you can perform to sell it at that price to Henry,â Andrew boasted triumphantly, eager to
witness Daniel make a faux pas.
âWho knows, maybe Henry really is a fool?!â Daniel quipped, flushing Henryâs face
with anger.
Infuriated, Henry glared at Daniel, bellowing, âAre you insulting me, you country
bumpkin?â
âIâm not insulting you! Youâre the one who said youâre a fool, what does that have to
do with me?â
âI meant that if I spent twenty million on that Blood Jade in your hands, Iâd be the fool. Do you think Iâm foolish enough to spend twenty million on a worthless Jade?â
âOh, Henry, youâll definitely buy it. You will spend twenty million on this Blood Jade,â Daniel declared confidently. Hearing this, Andrew sensed an opportunity and quickly
hatched a new plan.
âSince Daniel is so sure, how about we make another bet?â
âAgain?â Daniel looked at Andrew, who clearly intended to cause trouble, and asked, â What kind of bet do you want to make this time, Andrew?â
âYou boasted that you could sell the Blood Jade to Henry for twenty million. If you succeed, you win. If you donât, you lose.â
âAnd the stakes?â
âIf you win, Iâll give you twenty million. If you lose, you pay me twenty million,â Andrew
proposed, determined to win back everything he had lost to the country boy in their
previous Jade Gambling encounter.
As Daniel seemed to hesitate, Andrew taunted him with a chuckle, âWhatâs the
matter, country boy? Are you scared? Donât you dare take the bet?â

âScared? That word doesnât exist in my dictionary. Itâs just twenty million; itâs not like I canât afford it. I accept your challenge!â
Danielâs acceptance shocked Brittany into action.
âCountry boy, what are you doing? This is an obviously losing bet; how can you dare to accept Andrewâs terms? Do you have twenty million? You arenât even worth that much if you sold yourself!â
âThis is my decision, whatâs it to you?â Daniel rolled his eyes. âIâm not asking you for the money.â
âYeah, right, as if you have twenty million.â
âJessica does! Whatâs the difference? I already owe her fifteen million; I donât mind owing her another twenty million. Whether itâs twenty million or thirtyâfive million, itâs just a numberâwhatâs the difference?â
Danielâs nonchalance made Brittany stamp her feet in annoyance. She turned
sharply to Jessica and reported, âJessica, listen to what this country boy is saying! He says he needs to borrow more money from you â twenty million! And itâs definitely without return. He even said that itâs just a number! This country boy doesnât appreciate the money youâve earned!â
Brittany expected Jessica to be furious and give Daniel a piece of her mind. Instead, Jessica responded with a gentle, serene smile.
âDaniel, if you borrow more money from me, Iâm going to charge you interest. Twenty million with ten million interest. So if you win Andrewâs twenty million, youâll have to give me half.â
