Chapter 216 Surrender

Beardog, not knowing why Justin was so afraid of this country boy, dared not defy his order anylonger and had to obey. He knelt in front of Daniel, apologizing while knocking his forehead on theground, "Daniel, I've made a mistake! Please, I won't do it ever again! Please spare me this once!"

"Do you still want to sleep with my cousin?" Daniel inquired, pressing the point.

"I wouldn’t dare! I promise from now on, I won’t bother Amelia again! If Amelia ever needs anything,I’ll do whatever it takes to help her out!" Beardog quickly pledged his future non-interference andeven offered his protection to Amelia.

Daniel didn't want these guys to continue ruining the ambiance so that he could enjoy his lobster.He snapped coldly, "Now get out!"

Relieved by Daniel's dismissal, Justin hurried away with Beardog and the others in tow.

Amelia, who had faced persistent trouble at her Bell Street eatery for years without resolution, saw itall easily sorted out by Daniel. She thanked him profusely, "Thank you, Daniel! You really saved ustoday!"

Brittany promptly corrected her, "Cousin, he's not my boyfriend. Our relationship is purelyprofessional; he's not my boyfriend!"

"If Daniel isn't your significant other, why are you here with him so late at night?"

"We were having a team get-together."

"A team get-together, and he's the one you ended up with?"

"Cousin, I..."

Brittany wanted to explain but realized she was at a loss for words. This country boy was trulyruining her life! No, she had to sort him out tonight. All this embarrassment was his fault!

Suddenly, Brittany remembered the bet they've made, "Country boy, remember the bet we hadearlier?"

"What bet?"

"Thinking about reneging on it, huh?"

"No! I genuinely don't remember. Remind me?”

"You claimed your scrambled eggs would make me eat five plates. If I couldn't, you would lose, andthen you'd have to accept any one condition I put forward with no questions asked."

Brittany was setting a trap. Whether she ate or not was entirely up to her. All she had to do was notto eat and, Daniel would lose. Once he lost, he'd have to unconditionally agree to her terms, whichwould involve Daniel willingly resigning from The Matthews Organization.

"I remember now. Wasn’t it something like that?" Daniel looked her over, from head to toe, andquipped, "You've just filled yourself with lobster. Are you sure you want to make this bet now?"

"You didn't say I had to be hungry to eat five plates when we made this bet! Even if I’m stuffed, itdoesn’t affect the bet whatsoever. Soon as you bring the eggs out and I have a couple of bites andthen stop, you lose."

Amelia couldn’t help but laugh when she heard this. Covering her mouth, she giggled, "Brittany,don't bully your boyfriend like that!"

"He's not my boyfriend! And I'm not bullying him; it was his idea to make the bet!" Brittany defended,then challenging Daniel, she added, "Country boy, are you even a man?"

"Whether I’m a man or not, why don't you come and replace out?" Daniel replied with a roguish grin.
