The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 929 One Million

Just as Isla was enjoying that warm feeling, it vanished in an instant, leaving her with a hint of resentment in her eyes. She glared at Daniel and asked irritably, "Is that it?"

"Yep! That's all!" Daniel replied cheerfully.

"Is that really how it works? You treat me and just stick me with one needle? Is it always this quick? You're so irresponsible!"

Isla's expression was one of disappointment, as if it were her wedding night and her husband had finished way too soon.

Her frustration was almost suffocating to Daniel. He knew exactly what she wanted. He understood that the treatment had made Isla feel good, but the effect was short-lived, leaving her wanting more. That old woman was full of complaints now!

Daniel looked at Isla and asked, "So, does your stomach still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore," Isla replied automatically.

"Well, since your stomach isn't hurting, I've cured it already! No need for further treatment!" Daniel said.

"I still feel uncomfortable! Sure, my stomach doesn't hurt, and it seems like I'm not bleeding anymore, but I still feel weird!" Isla insisted.

Her cheeks were flushed, reminiscent of a newlywed bride. She felt shy yet bold at the same time. After all, she had tasted the sweetness of intimacy!

Any grievances or complaints she had now could be shared freely without hesitation.

"Isla, you're saying you feel uncomfortable-where exactly?" Daniel asked.

"I feel uncomfortable everywhere! My whole body doesn't feel right. You might have fixed my stomach pain with that last needle, but now I'm uncomfortable; you've given me side effects, and I need more treatment!"

At that moment, Isla couldn't shake the itching urge in her heart; she really wanted Daniel to give her a second needle. Otherwise, it felt like she had an itch that couldn't be scratched, leaving her utterly restless!

"I'm telling you, Isla! We made a bet! If you want me to give you a second needle, you owe me a million. So if you want me to treat you again, that's perfectly fine, but you need to pay up first. One million for the

second needle, and if you wer

a

third, that'll be another million. The first needle is a hundred bucks, but every needle after that will cost you a million."

No sooner had Daniel spoken than Avery's hand was already at his waist, twisting him hard.

"Ah... Ahhh..."

With her motherly strength, Daniel couldn't help but squeal in exaggerated pain.

Afterward, he clutched his side and looked at Avery with pitiful eyes, "Mom, why'd you twist me again?"

"Are you charging Isla for treatment? A million? Are you an idiot? Isla is my best friend! Hurry up and treat her. If you bring up money again, I'll make you regret it!"
