Chapter 178 Don't Let Daniel Get Away

Jessica's reply utterly stunned Joseph. He couldn’t believe it and asked his granddaughter, “Whatdid you just say? You’re saying Daniel chased away an Earth Fiend martial master?”

“Yes! That martial master was like a beginner in front of him; he couldn’t even get close to Daniel.He tried to attack Daniel twice with a curved knife, but every time he approached, Daniel just kickedhim away with a single blow.”

“A curved knife?" Joseph pondered over a sip of wine. "Could it be The White Eyebrow Ryan?”

“Yes! That guy did mention it. He seemed to be called The White Eyebrow Ryan! He also claimedhe was ranked 38th among The 72 Martial Masters!”

“Ryan couldn’t defeat Daniel? That’s really unexpected!” Joseph exclaimed in surprise.

“It was more than that. He was like a child in front of Daniel.”

“Really? Even those ranked toward the bottom of The 36 Martial Masters, I imagine, couldn’t handleRyan that easily. If Daniel managed to take care of Ryan so easily, doesn’t that mean he’s strongerthan at least half of The 36 Martial Masters? Jessica, you must not let Daniel get away! You have toreplace Daniel and you best get pregnant with his child. No matter what you have to do, you must gethim to join The Matthews family!”

“Grandpa, what are you talking about? I won’t go looking for that Daniel! Why should I have hischild? I'm not that cheap! I won’t do it!”

Jessica would never pursue Daniel proactively! At most, she’d just not resist as strongly if Danieltook advantage of her. She might allow him some leeway, but definitely not too much!

Joseph went to another room and retrieved a wooden box secured with a golden lock, passing it toJessica. “Inside is The Grass of the Sealed Dragon, a wedding gift I’ve prepared for you. Take it to

Daniel and tell him that once you're married, The Grass of the Sealed Dragon will belong to him.”

“Grandpa, what are you saying?”

“Since you don't want to be proactive, you can offer Daniel a little temptation to encourage him!”

“Temptation? Grandpa, are you saying that your granddaughter’s charm is less than The Grass ofthe Sealed Dragon?”

“Uh…”

Joseph was taken aback, hurriedly explaining, “That's not what I meant.”

“If that’s not what you mean, then why are you telling me to use The Grass of the Sealed Dragon totempt him? Are you saying if my wedding gift wasn't The Grass of the Sealed Dragon, he wouldn'tmarry me?”

“No, you've misunderstood. The Grass of the Sealed Dragon was something I promised as a giftwhen I made a marriage pact with his master. I want you to show it to Daniel to make clear that weThe Matthews keep our promises and honor our commitments. According to our agreement, thisGrass of the Sealed Dragon has been well preserved. You can have Daniel check it, just to ensurehe doesn't accuse us of breaking our word.”

“Hmph!”

Jessica pouted and took the wooden box.

“I don’t want to show that to Daniel!”

Leaving Joseph’s place, Jessica ran towards Daniel's holding the box, not to let him check it. Shewas just curious; what did The Grass of the Sealed Dragon look like? She wanted Daniel to open

the box to show her what it looked like—nothing more.

The villa’s gate was open, as was the front door. Holding the box, Jessica entered the villa.
