Chapter 544 Slandering
The Understated Dragon Lord
"Sweetheart, youâre pretty enough, not terribly ugly. But my goodness, why is your mouth so foul?
Smells worse than a public restroom! Even with all your perfume, you can't hide that stench," Daniel
said with a chuckle.
His words infuriated Maya. "What did you just say? Who are you calling stinky?"
"Whoever stinks knows it themselves. All that perfume can't mask the stench. I wonder just how
rotten, how foul you really are," he taunted, glancing briefly towards her stomach.
Jessica caught his glance and, although silent, gave Daniel a subtle warning pinch on the waist.
Maya, feeling like she was stepped on, raised her voice in anger, "You lowlife, stop babbling
nonsense and sullying my good name!"
"Sullying your good name? If you're truly 'pure,' my words won't taint you. If you're not 'pure,' you
donât need me to sully you â you're already dirty, no need to pretend to be a white lotus here!"
"You... you're nothing but a filthy ruffian! A disgusting brute! You're so revolting, itâs unbearable!"
At this moment, Wyatt stepped in. "Maya, let's not waste time on a country bumpkin. Let's play golf.
He said he wants to join, right? Let him. Show him up on the green."
Maya was not one to let an insult from a "country bumpkin" slide by easily. After a moment's
thought, she laid out her terms to Daniel, "Country boy, if you want to join our golf game, fine. But
on top of Wyattâs $8.88 million prize, each player should put in an additional $880,000. If you can
cough up the cash, youâre in. If you canât, you donât deserve to play!"
Maya was clearly trying to put Daniel on the spot, to shame him. She was convinced this "country
bumpkin" could never come up with $880,000. As for Jessica, an owner of a small company with a
yearly profit of only $100,000, how could she possibly afford $880,000? Even if she could, she
wouldnât hand it over for a "country bumpkin," would she?
"Only $880,000?" Daniel said nonchalantly, then turned to Jessica, "Honey, give me the money!"
"Idiot," Jessica muttered under her breath.
Then she pulled out her phone, facing Maya, asking, "Whom do I give the entry fee of $880,000
to?"
Maya was stunned, staring incredulously at Jessica and asked, "You can really come up with
$880,000?"
"Of course! Is there a problem?"
"Heh," Maya let out a scornful laugh and continued, "I never wouldâve guessed. Jessica, our little
boss, can actually pull out $880,000? Pouring out so much money, your little company is gonna go
bankrupt, isn't it? To go to such lengths for a 'country bumpkin,' arenât you something? Donât tell me,
this 'country bumpkin' is your kept man?"
