“Country 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,” Andrew boasted triumphantly, eager to

witness Daniel make a faux pas.

“Who knows, maybe Henry really is a fool?!” Daniel quipped, flushing Henry’s face

with anger.

Infuriated, Henry glared at Daniel, bellowing, “Are you insulting me, you country

bumpkin?”

“I’m not insulting you! You’re the one who said you’re a fool, what does that have to

do with me?”

“I meant that if I spent twenty million on that Blood Jade in your hands, I’d be the fool. Do you think I’m foolish enough to spend twenty million on a worthless Jade?”

“Oh, Henry, you’ll definitely buy it. You will spend twenty million on this Blood Jade,” Daniel declared confidently. Hearing this, Andrew sensed an opportunity and quickly

hatched a new plan.

“Since Daniel is so sure, how about we make another bet?”

“Again?” Daniel looked at Andrew, who clearly intended to cause trouble, and asked, ” What kind of bet do you want to make this time, Andrew?”

“You boasted that you could sell the Blood Jade to Henry for twenty million. If you succeed, you win. If you don’t, you lose.”

“And the stakes?”

“If you win, I’ll give you twenty million. If you lose, you pay me twenty million,” 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, “What’s the

matter, country boy? Are you scared? Don’t you dare take the bet?”

“Scared? That word doesn’t exist in my dictionary. It’s just twenty million; it’s not like I can’t afford it. I accept your challenge!”

Daniel’s acceptance shocked Brittany into action.

“Country boy, what are you doing? This is an obviously losing bet; how can you dare to accept Andrew’s terms? Do you have twenty million? You aren’t even worth that much if you sold yourself!”

“This is my decision, what’s it to you?” Daniel rolled his eyes. “I’m not asking you for the money.”

“Yeah, right, as if you have twenty million.”

“Jessica does! What’s the difference? I already owe her fifteen million; I don’t mind owing her another twenty million. Whether it’s twenty million or thirty–five million, it’s just a number–what’s the difference?”

Daniel’s nonchalance made Brittany stamp her feet in annoyance. She turned

sharply to Jessica and reported, “Jessica, listen to what this country boy is saying! He says he needs to borrow more money from you – twenty million! And it’s definitely without return. He even said that it’s just a number! This country boy doesn’t appreciate the money you’ve earned!”

Brittany expected Jessica to be furious and give Daniel a piece of her mind. Instead, Jessica responded with a gentle, serene smile.

“Daniel, if you borrow more money from me, I’m going to charge you interest. Twenty million with ten million interest. So if you win Andrew’s twenty million, you’ll have to give me half.”
