The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 506 You Can't Win

"Get lost immediately? What do you mean?" Danny asked, confused.

"No, not immediately! If you can't pass the test today, you won't be able to walk out of The Big Dipper alive! Your life will end here," Lily clarified with an ominous tone.

"Hold on! What do you mean, Lily? Didn't we agree that you needed my help? How did we go from that to you wanting me dead?" Danny protested.

"It's not that I want your life. But you, country boy, if you want to marry my Jessica and climb the ranks within The Matthews, you'd better show some real skill. The Big Dipper here is your first trial," Lily explained.

Danny glanced over the casino and took in the atmosphere of The Big Dipper before understanding dawned on him. "This place is brimming with a killer vibe!" he exclaimed.

"You still have a choice! You're not tied to The Big Dipper until you place a bet. So, you can still back out and escape right now. But if you do, forget about ever stepping foot in The Matthews household," Lily said, giving him an out.

"Escape? Do you really see me as the type of guy who runs away?" Danny challenged with a hint of pride in his voice.

"So you're not backing out? But think it through. If you sit at the table here in The Big Dipper, you'll have to lose at least ten million dollars before you're allowed to leave."

Lily was genuinely trying to give Danny a friendly warning.

"Do you think I can't afford to lose ten million?" he asked.

"Of course you can lose ten million, especially with how Jessica spoils you. But even if you lost it, you wouldn't want to leave. Not without winning it back, because I'd look down on you. You’re a country boy but one with pride. You wouldn’t allow me to disrespect you!" Lily continued her psychological play, aiming to take control of Danny’s mindset.

Spirit Animal Valley was a fluke that he passed, Lily thought, but she was convinced that there was no way he could pass the test of The Big Dipper.
