The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 80 Prospera Group Invitation
Inside the CEOâs office.
Jessica, wearing a snug business dress, sat in the executive chair with one leg crossed over the other,
swinging her fiery red high heels back and forth. She wore a faint smile on her lips, but her eyes were
sharp, fixated on Daniel. She looked less like his boss and more like a wife who had caught her husband
cheating.
âSay it!â
âSay what?â Daniel asked, confused, his gaze filled with puzzlement as he looked at the beauty before
him.
âYou tell me what youâre supposed to say.
âI really donât know what Iâm supposed to say, which is why Iâm asking you what I should say.â
âAre you playing some kind of word game?â
âNo.â
âNo?â
Jessica glowered at Daniel, her tone turning fierce, âHow did you get out of the house?â
âI walked out on my feet!â
âWho opened the door for you?â
âI didnât go through the main door! I jumped down from the secondâfloor terrace.â
âYou actually jumped down from the terrace?â
Jessica was shocked and commanded, âGet your ass over here!â
Although he was unsure of her intentions, Daniel obediently made his way to Jessicaâs side. Just as he got close, Jessica
Over to knead his legs. At the same time, Daniel greedily inhaled the faint
fragrance wafting from her dark hair. It was exquisite.
âDoes this hurt?â
âNo.â
âWhat about here?â
âThat doesnât hurt either.â
âYou si
âNo.â
sure you didnât injure yourself jumping from that height?â
âYou dog!â

After affirming that Daniel was unharmed, Jessica couldnât help but curse him. She then sternly warned, This is the last time. If you dare to jump out of a window again, Iâll break your legs.â
With that, she gave Daniel a slap on the back.
Slap!
Daniel was shocked.
âYou⦠You actually hit meâ¦â
âSo what? Get lost! Youâre just annoying to look at!â
Jessica rolled her eyes and shooed Daniel out of her office.
As soon as he was gone, Jessicaâs face turned beet red with embarrassment. Even she didnât know why she had slapped him. But Daniel was rather muscular, and his behind was surprisingly springy to the touch. It had been rather amusing to slap.
Just after Daniel left, a knock sounded at the door.
Thump!
Thump, thump!
âCome in!â
Jessica straightened out her clothes, and the door opened to reveal a large round face. It was Nicholas. What was he doing here?
âNicholas, what brings you here?â
âJessica, I came especially today to deliver an invitation to you.â
Nicholas passed Jessica a finely designed invitation. With a puzzled look, she asked, âProspera Group Unusual Stones Exhibition? Whatâs this about?â
âYouâve heard of Prospera Group, right?â
âIâve heard of them. Prospera Group is owned by Floridaâs wealthiest family, The Evans. Their CEO, Chris Evans, came from a rural background with very little education. He carved out a bloody path for himself in the jade and gemstone market, relying on his tenacity and firmness. It took him over thirty years to achieve todayâs success and become Floridaâs richest. Thereâs a saying in Florida that if Chris stomps his foot, the entire state shakes. It shows just how influential Chris is.â
As Jessica held the invitation for Prospera Groupâs exhibition, she pondered the intent behind Nicholasâs visit and the connection to the influential Chris Evans
