The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 557 A High Price

Having negotiated a deal with Maya, Wyatt immediately turned his fox-like gaze toward his next target: Sebastian! Anthony's apprentice, Sebastian!

Wyatt actually looked down on Sebastian; he wanted to use Sebastian as a stepping stone to get acquainted with Anthony, and then be introduced to Joshua, the top doctor in the USA.

The most powerful individuals in the USA were the old guard, who, due to their age, were plagued with various ailments. Many of them hoped to receive treatment from Joshua, a member of one of The Eight Families and the head of The Grants. No matter how influential these old folks were, they couldn't get Joshua to treat them.

Wyatt had been scheming—if he could get to Anthony through Sebastian, and then persuade Joshua to come out of retirement to treat these old magnates, he'd just need to play the role of a facilitator. In doing so, he could earn the gratitude of these powerful old-timers.

In the USA, the most challenging debts to repay are those of personal favors.

"Sebastian, are you in for this next round? You just lost eight million to this country boy in the first bet; you're not going to let that go and give him an easy win, are you?"

"Wyatt, I think I’ll stop gambling," Sebastian responded.

"You're quitting after one loss? Why are so scared? Isn't it embarrassing to lose to a country boy? If I were you, I'd at least try to win back the eight million I lost and then some."

"Wyatt, that's easy for you to say! You're the big boss; you can afford to make a comeback. It's different for me; I'm just an employee surviving on a salary. I borrowed that eight million, and I've asked everyone I could for money. It’s not that I don't want to bet or am afraid to, but I literally don't
