The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 479 Humiliation

Jessica knew that Joshua was acquainted with Daniel, but she didn't believe that he would actually consider the fool his teacher. Besides, six minutes had already passed. With only four minutes left, could Joshua really make it in time? Worried, she quickly stood up to intervene, "No betting! How childish can you get? What are you even wagering on? Our priority should be saving Grandpa's life."

"Honey, I want to save Grandpa too! But Uncle Pork won't let me; he insists on making this bet. If he wants to bet, then I'll bet with him. Otherwise, I'll look like a coward who can't play along. Besides, you never clean my shoes anyway, so why not let Uncle Pork and his nimble tongue do it? If he wants to play the dog, we shouldn't disappoint him. We should let him enjoy the freedom of being a dog, right?" Daniel responded, a touch of mischief in his voice.

Avery chuckled coldly at Daniel's answer. After her laugh, she turned to Jessica and said, "If this country boy is so eager to make a fool of himself, let him."

"Mom, why are you like this?" Jessica asked, visibly upset.

"What did I do?" Avery retorted.

"It's a shame, especially since Daniel even calls you 'Mom.' He really shouldn't have bothered."

"Who cares about him calling me 'Mom'? It’s his own boasting that got us here. He wanted to bet. Whose fault is that? As a man, even a country boy should act like one and be responsible for his actions!"

Just then, a hurried set of footsteps approached. A small, elderly man rushed into the emergency room. Who else could it be but Joshua?
