The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 952 The Fool



Daniel's response only earned him a laugh from Grant.

"Ha! You think this little Heliotrope is going to magically transform into something worth two million? No matter how much you clean it, it'll still just be a couple thousand bucks. So stop wasting time and money on this-look at how gross that vodka looks now! It's like dirty water from a sewer!"This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Daniel didn't even respond to Grant's taunts. Instead, he asked, "Hey Grant, are your eyes working okay?"

This question drove Grant up the wall. "Of course, my eyes are fine! Yours must be the ones that are broken!" "And if your eyes are fine, then you should be able to see the changes in that vodka, right?" Daniel asked cheerfully. "Changes?" Grant glanced at the basin, and although the vodka still smelled strong, it didn't look different at all. Wait. It did look different! It was murkier, resembling drainage water.

"Country boy, I see a change all right. The only change is that you've ruined that vodka. No amount of filtering can fix it now! If I had known you would waste it like this, I wouldn't have bothered giving you the real stuff; I would have just given you the cheap stuff that you treat like water!"

"Ugh..." Daniel sighed dramatically. "Grant, you really must be blind! You've been blind since the day you were born!"

"Blind? How dare you say that to me?" Grant shot back, furious. "Why do you keep saying I'm blind?"

Daniel kept pushing his buttons, leaving Grant bewildered. He had to know why Daniel kept saying these things.

"Didn't you notice that the vodka has a subtle glow now? A red glow-like it's dripping with blood?"

Daniel's proclamation made Grant pause. He hadn't paid attention before, but now that it was mentioned, he could see a faint red glow in the basin.

Though he didn't understand it yet, it

left a sense of unease in the pit of his stomach. "Are you pulling some kindof magic trick?" Grant asked, narrowing his eyes.

"I'm not performing magic! I'm washing jade! Didn't I just say that? I want to reveal the Heliotrope's true value so people like you can see if it's worth two million!"
