Chapter 507 Catastrophe


    "Fine! I''ll take that bet! If you can turn this hundred into a billion, I''ll give you a kiss. But if you don’t


    make it to a hundred billion, you lose. Then you have to break up with Jessica and never appear


    before her again," Lilyid out her condition, certain that Danny couldn''t win.


    "Lily, you seem so eager for me to break up with Jessica. Got any ns brewing in that head of


    yours?" Danny teased.


    "What ns could I possibly have? I don’t have any ns," Lily dodged the question.


    "Lily, just one look and I can see right through your little schemes. You keep trying to make me


    break up with Jessica because you want to use her to take the fall for you, don''t you?" Danny


    used.


    "What are you talking about?" Lily’s tone was a mix of irritation and feigned curiosity.


    "In a family like The Matthews, you must make marriage alliances with other powerful families,


    right? If Jessica marries me, she won''t be avable to marry into another wealthy family. That


    responsibility would fall to you. And you, Lily, don’t want to sacrifice your own happiness or your


    marriage for the sake of a family alliance," Danny deduced.

    "Nonsense! That''s not it at all! I am a daughter of The Matthews, and I would give everything for my


    family!" Although Danny had struck a nerve, Lily remained defiant.


    "Yeah, yeah, you''d sacrifice everything for The Matthews, including your marriage. If The Matthews


    required you to marry That Retard or Down, you’d do it, wouldn’t you?" Danny didn''t miss a beat.


    "Ugh! Those two are not worthy of me," Lily spat with contempt.


    "Not worthy of you, but they’re good enough for Jessica? I''m just a country boy who Jessica’s willing


    to marry. If she could marry into The Evans or be the young mistress of The Perkins, she


    wouldn''t be at a loss," Lily reasoned, cing her family status above Jessica’s.


    “Lily, there’s an old saying – ‘Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire.’ You wouldn''t


    want to marry those men, yet you''d be willing to push Jessica toward them. That''s like pushing her


    into hell!" Danny confronted.


    "Country boy, you don''t understand. When you''re born into a family like The Matthews, you have to


    be prepared to sacrifice your own interests for the family''s sake. So even if I don’t want to marry


    Smart and Down, if the family forces me, I have no choice but to follow through," Lily said


    resignedly.


    "Lily, don''t worry. As long as you''re unwilling, nobody can force you into marriage. The Evans and


    The Perkins? They’re nothing!" Danny boasted.


    "The Evans and The Perkins are nothing? And who do you think you are?" Lily challenged.


    "I''m nobody," Danny dered with a straight face.


    Lily couldn’t help but burst outughing. "So you do have some self-awareness! You actually admit


    you''re nobody!"


    "Why am I nobody, huh?" Danny yed along, unfazed.


    Lily was ovee withughter, bending over with glee. It was a beautiful sight – utterly captivating


    and irresistibly charming – so much so that Danny felt like diving straight into her beauty.


    "Let me tell you the truth, Lily! I am the future head of The Perkins family!" Danny stated seriously,


    though his statement only seemed to amuse Lily further.


    Sheughed uproariously as if tipsy, her joy shaking her entire frame – a vision of loveliness that


    was beyond redemption, a beauty that was so breathtaking that Danny almost wished his eyes


    could take a closer look at her chest.
