The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 548 Placing Another Bet

Daniel paused, chuckled, and then suggested, “So, if you want to raise the stakes with me, let’s bet on something else. I don’t need you to eat the golf ball.”

“Hah!” Maya sneered, her brain whirling as a cunning idea struck her. “Bet on something else? Fine, let’s not complicate things. Let’s just bet money. If you manage a hole-in-one again, I’ll pay you $10 million. If not, you owe me $10 million.”

A money bet?

Wyatt was instantly excited at the prospect and interjected eagerly, "If we’re betting money, I want a piece of the action. But for me, the stakes have to be doubled—$20 million. If you, country boy, can get a hole-in-one on this next swing, I’ll pay you $20 million myself. If you can’t, you owe me $20 million!"

Worried that Daniel might turn down the challenge, Wyatt added with an incredulous scoff, "Of course, if a country bumpkin like you doesn't have the guts, you don’t have to bet with me. I understand. Most you come from the countryside probably lack the nerve. No hard feelings if you don’t dare play with me."

"I don’t have piles of cash, but I’m certainly richer than a country bumpkin like you! I would never be scared to gamble with you. As long as you dare to bet, I’m all in," Wyatt declared confidently.

"Well, since you put it that way, how about we make a small bet?" Daniel teased him.

"Small wager? How small are you talking about? For me, $20 million is already the absolute minimum. Anything less is just no fun," Wyatt was provoking Daniel, eager to see just how much
