The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 137

Andrew just didn't want to see Daniel gain anything from this ordeal. He'd be enraged if that country boy actually ended up with the three million. So, he had to prevent the transaction; he had to ensure Nicholas sold the worthless stone back to Daniel for three million.

"My money is my own concern, Andrew. Thank you, but I don't need your advice on what to do with it," Nicholas dismissed Andrew and turned to Daniel, holding the halved stone. "Is there something else inside, Daniel?"

"Yes, but I need something first. Brittany, can you do me a quick favor? Run outside and buy me a bottle of vodka. The vodka they have here gets ruined because of the location, and if we want to reveal the true nature of this Blood Jade, I'll need you to personally buy some vodka from outside."

At Daniel's request, Brittany immediately became furious, stomping her high heel and rejecting the errand. "No way! Why should I run errands? I'm not your assistant."

"What’s wrong with leg work? Look how lazy you are; you must have gained weight recently. Running errands will help you lose weight. Just go!" Daniel teased her further.

Knowing full well Daniel was intentionally bullying Brittany, Jessica couldn’t help but support him. After all, Brittany routinely targeted Daniel, and a touch of payback seemed only fair.

Stunned, Brittany turned to Jessica with disbelief. "Jessica, he’s blatantly bullying me, and you're still taking his side?"
