Chapter 390 Offering Help
The Understated Dragon Lord
Andrew's statements carried a bold arrogance, eliciting only a snide chuckle from Daniel. In an
effort to prod Andrew into revealing his plans, Daniel said with a grin, "So it sounds like The
Armstrongs have secured more powerful assistance than The Grants now?"
"Of course!" Andrew readily continued, pride swelling in his voice. "The Matthews family, ranking
third among New York's 'The Eight Families,' has decided to cooperate with us, The Armstrongs.
Next week, at the grand 80th birthday celebration of a distinguished family elder, we, The
Armstrongs, will represent New York's business community to pay our respects!"
"Attending a birthday at The Matthews, so impressive, isn't it?" Daniel commented cheekily.
"It's more than impressive; it's the ultimate honor for us and for all of New York!"
"So attending a birthday is the ultimate honor now? What if I married The Matthews' youngest
granddaughter? Wouldn't that be even more glorious?"
Daniel's comment prompted uproarious laughter from Andrew. "Hahaha..."
After his laughter subsided, Andrew spoke with mock gravity, "What did you say? You, a country
bumpkin, marry The Matthews' granddaughter? With your hillbilly background? I bet you don't even
have the privilege of catching a glimpse of her from afar."
"Seeing her is no big deal; I could just end up sleeping with The Matthews' youngest granddaughter.
But you wouldn't know, would you? She smells divine. Every inch of her is fragrant, so tempting it
makes you want to nibble on her gently."
"You're insufferable! For uttering such vile words, if The Matthews family heard it, they would tear
you to pieces and ensure you'd be tormented for eternity! You wouldn't dare to lay eyes on The
Matthews' youngest granddaughter!"
Unable to endure the conversation any longer, Jessica didn't want to reveal her connection to The
Matthews. She didn't want to be associated with the family. She never considered herself part of
The Matthews and was a strong woman who didn't want others thinking her success with TMO was
due to their backing. The achievements of TMO were thanks to her capabilities, not The Matthews.
In fact, The Matthews had never assisted TMO but had instead caused trouble.
"Andrew, your partnership with The Matthews has nothing to do with me. There's no need to boast
about it here, and I'm not impressed! I wouldn't like you more just because The Armstrongs have
teamed up with The Matthews. I have no feelings for you, and no matter how powerful or influential
The Armstrongs may become, I still won't feel anything for you. So please, leave!"
"Jessica, I've done my best to respect you, but you've shown me none in return. You can kiss this
country bumpkin yet reject me? Fine! I'll make sure you pay for it!"
Andrew left these threatening words behind, aiming to intimidate Jessica. Hearing this, Daniel knew
he couldn't let anyone threaten his honeyâthat was utterly unacceptable. He looked at Andrew with
amusement.
"Andrew, you're saying you'll make my honey pay? What exactly are you suggesting?"
