The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 1583

When Charlie saw that Dylan still had the same attitude as he did before, he could not help but sneer a s he said, "Dylan, it seems that you really don't know how to learn from your own past mistakes. Have you already forgotten how you swallowed the necklace the last time?"

Back then, the main reason why Dylan was forced to swallow the necklace was that he lost a bet with Charlie. He thought very highly of himself just because he bought a necklace that was worth tens of millions of dollars. At the same time, he believed that the Rejuvenating Pill that Charlie gave to Jasmine was worthless. 6

However, he really did not expect that a Rejuvenating Pill could be sold for a rocket high price of two billion dollars at Jasmine's birthday banquet. 7

After Dylan came back home, he had been pondering over this matter. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was not right. He had always felt that it was completely impossible for anyone to be willing to spend two billion dollars on such a stupid item. 2

So, the only thing he could conclude was that Travis and Charlie had actually joined forces to deceive him!

Although it looked like Travis had spent two billion

dollars on the surface just to purchase the Rejuvenating Pill, it was very likely that Charlie had returned the money to him immediately after that. Therefore, this made him hate Charlie even more.

He had actually been planning to head to Aurous Hill to look for him so that he could settle the score with him after the New Year. Unexpectedly, Charlie actually came to Eastcliff on his own initiative. Moreover, he was at his grandmother's house! This made Dylan feel even more hatred and resentment for Charlie.

If it weren't because it was his grandmother's birthday banquet, Dylan would have already called people to come over here immediately to beat Charlie half to death, s

So, he immediately yelled at Charlie as he said," Charlie Wade! I have not settled scores with you for plotting against me and setting me up! Yet, you actually dare to come all the way here to Eastcliff and show off now?"

Dylan had a very angry expression on his face as he asked, "Tell me the truth. Did you and Travis collude to deceive and set me up last time?"

Charlie snorted disdainfully before he answered, "Just admit that you cannot accept losing. It is indeed a little embarrassing. I do not want to place bets with a rogue who cannot afford to admit defeat." Dylan felt extremely enraged at this time. He gritted his teeth and continued, "Who f*cking said that I cannot accept defeat? Do you really think that I cannot fucking afford to lose?" 5

Charlie laughed as he replied, "If you can afford to lose, then why don't we place another bet against one another then?":

Dylan replied immediately, "Okay! Tell me, what are we going to bet on this time? Say it!" 6

Charlie replied, "Didn't you say that the painting that I gave to your grandmother is only worth a few hundred dollars? So... if my painting is worth more than your jade pendant, then you have to eat your jade pendant, just like how you ate your necklace the last time!" 7

"F*ck!" When Dylan heard Charlie reminding him of how he had to swallow the necklace the last time, he lost his temper immediately. "Young lad, are you f* eking looking for death? Do you not believe that I will f*cking get someone to come over and kill you?"

Doreen said angrily, "Cousin, Charlie is my friend!

Don't act so excessively!"

"Am I overreacting?" Dylan snorted coldly as he continued, "This is nothing, and you already think that I am acting out of line? Let me tell you something. Fresh animosity had been added to the old grudge now! I will definitely give him a hard time today!"

Charlie smiled as he replied, "See! I said that you cannot accept defeat, and you refused to admit it. It seems as though you are still reluctant to admit your own mistake even when you are already driven into desperation. Why? What is the matter? Are you afraid to make a bet with me?" 7 "Am I afraid to bet with you?" Dylan replied contemptuously, "How can your broken painting even be compared to the green jadeite Maitreya Buddha pendant that I carefully selected for my grandmother? What kind of joke is this?"

After that, Dylan asked sternly, "What if you lose the bet then? Do you dare to eat the painting that you brought here today?"
