The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 283 Nathan Arrives

Daniel's comments about Liam not drinking for three years were not baseless. He had given Liam medical examinations and even administered injections, so he was very familiar with Liam's health condition.

Emily couldn't resist a sneer at Daniel's confidence. "Country boy, I didn't realize you were this good at bluffing. Don’t tell me you're claiming to know the legislator? Otherwise, how would you know he hasn't drunk in three years?"

Instead of directly answering her question, Daniel countered, "The legislator you're talking about, is it Liam?"

"Wow, country boy, you did your homework! Or did you just look it up on your phone? You actually managed to figure out the River County legislator's name. You really are quite something, using your phone to show off!"

After some chit-chat, Mason pointed at the two bottles of vodka and asked Nathan, "These two bottles of booze, take a look and tell us if they really are fifty-year-old vodka and if each is worth a million dollars."

Nathan examined one bottle and then shook his head. "Judging by these bottles, they look like the fake vodka that's sold online. They're cheap. This one might be worth a few tens, but their cost is probably only a few bucks each. After all, the contents are likely substandard industrial vodka, or even just industrial alcohol—it's not distilled from grain."

retorted, "Do you think talking like that will fool me? I've seen plenty of people who buy fake antique liquor online and try to pass it off as real to me. Do you think I'll fall for your trick?
