The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 750 Paying the Price

"Mr. Down, your attitude could use some improvement! You don't sound sincere at all! You need to show some genuine humility. So, come on, kneel before me and say it again!" Daniel, ever-jovial, made his demand. He was not a man to be appeased by gestures; he sought purpose.

"Country boy, that's too much!" Down gritted his teeth, fuming with anger.

"Silver cat, teach Mr. Down what 'too much' really means," Daniel instructed, and once again, the silver cat approached Down.

Witnessing the cat's approach, Down's legs turned to jelly, and he fell to his knees pleading, "Country boy, I admit you are my Boss! Please, don't have this beast slap me anymore! Its paws are powerfully strong; I can't take it any longer!"

Submission - truly unconditional surrender under the menace of the silver cat!

"Mr. Down, that's more like it! Admitting defeat honorably - now that's being a real man!" Daniel praised him, then nonchalantly slapped Down's face twice soft slaps that caused no pain, but Down still felt profound humiliation.

Even though Down knew he had been humiliated, there was nothing he could do in response. He glared at Daniel with seething rage, indicating his displeasure.

The bet was over, and everyone was ready to leave.

Upon exiting Purple Gold Hill and returning to Purple Gold, Down glared coldly at Daniel and threatened, "Country boy, I won't forget this! You will pay a painful, costly price for your actions!"

"Mr. Down, what price should I expect to pay?" Daniel inquired curiously.

"You'll find out when the time comes! I'll make sure your life is worse than death!" Down spat venomously.

"Worse than death? That must be quite a delightful feeling, right? I'm looking forward to it!" Daniel replied, entirely unbothered by Down's threats, which only infuriatedDown further.

As they left Purple Gold, Beauty, sitting in the passenger seat, looked at Daniel with concern. "Country boy, you've seriously offended Mr. Down. Aren't you afraid?"

"Down? He's just a loser. Why should I be afraid of him? What does he have that I should fear? Does he have an extra arm? An extra head?"

"He is The Perkins' heir! The

successor to Washington DC's foremost family, The Perkins! Do you know what that means? They are a force not even The Matthews would dare to provoke! Provoking Mr Down like that he really could kill you!"

"He's just The Perkins' heir? Why should you be afraid? I am The Perkins' secondary heir!"

Beauty naturally didn't believe him. "Yeah," she shrugged and warned, "You better not pretend to be The Perkins' secondary heir anymore. If anyone found out, you could be killed. You should stop saying such things!"

"I'm not pretending; I really am The Perkins' secondary heir, believe it or not," Daniel retorted indignantly.

"Right, right, sure you are," Beauty scoffed, then twisted her finger cruelly into his waist.

"Ah... ah!" Daniel yelped.

"Beauty, please spare me! You're going to torture me to death!"All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
