Chapter 549 Maya's Plan

"Yep, let's bet a billion! Or are you saying, Wyatt, that you can’t pull together a billion and don’t dareto bet with me?" Daniel challenged, nearly causing Wyatt to spit blood with frustration.

"What are you saying, country boy? That I can't bring a billion to the table? If you can come up witha billion, let's bet," Wyatt countered with defiant sarcasm, using reverse psychology. He didn'tbelieve for a second that Jessica could produce a billion dollars and certainly not for a gamble.

Daniel quickly moved behind Jessica and began rubbing her shoulders appeasingly. "What are youdoing?" she asked.

"Honey, how about you advance my allowance for next month for a bet?" Daniel cheekilysuggested.

"And what if you lose?" Jessica said with a playful smirk.

"Rest assured, honey, I'm the reincarnation of the God of Gamblers - I can't lose," Daniel confidentlyreplied.

Jessica chuckled coldly, then teased, "Even the God of Gamblers can't guarantee a win every time.What if you really lose?"

"If I lose? Then it's up to honey, of course! Whatever you decide, no objections or dodging fromme."

"If you dare to lose, I'll cut your allowance!" Jessica playfully threatened, then with a smile,encouraged, "Go play!"

Now that he had secured a billion from Jessica, Daniel was feeling rich. He turned to Wyatt andconfidently inquired, "My billion is secured, Wyatt. Do you dare to play with me?"

Wyatt responded with a sneer, "Why would I be afraid to play? Hah!"

After his scornful chuckle, Wyatt's sly mind began to turn. "A billion isn't a trivial sum. We can't justrely on verbal agreements. To prevent any dishonesty, both of us should transfer the money into aholding account first. Whoever wins gets the transfer."

Wyatt insisted on this condition because he was wary of Daniel reneging on the bet. He knew thecountry boy didn't have deep pockets or many assets to his name; if Wyatt won and Daniel dodgedpayment, he’d have no recourse.

"All good with me! Whatever you say, Wyatt. Let's do it your way. After all, I'm the one who will win,so moving the money into a holding account early works to my advantage," Daniel chimed in withease.

He then looked at Maya and grinned, "Maya, I'm playing for a billion with Wyatt. Want to join? Ofcourse, if a billion's too steep, we can keep our bet at ten million. Just one thing—we follow thesame rule as Wyatt and transfer the money to the holding account in advance."

Maya didn’t rush to reply; instead, she glanced at the golf course. The second hole was notoriouslytough—the longest distance over two hundred meters, with a small forest in the middle and even anartificial lake.

A hole-in-one was virtually impossible. Even world champion golfers couldn’t achieve it.

After pondering a moment, Maya made her decision. Turning down an easy ten million would befoolish.

"Fine, I'll bet with you! But can you, a country bumpkin, even afford to throw in another ten million?"she asked with a faint sneer.
