Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 37

Daniel smiled. "Alright!"

Selena immediately gave Bryson a look, while Bryson gave Daniel a cold sneer before bending down and walking out.

Soon, a strange gambling game spread through Southgate Alley.

"Tsk! This person probably has too much money. With Ms. Brook's personality, this young man is probably going to be unlucky."

"That's right. To be honest, it's really frustrating. The Ashcroft family's emerald store is not that special, but it has good luck."

"We can't really say that. The store wasn't like this back in the day. Ah, the past is the past. There's no need to mention it."

With a one-million-dollar stake, this was not a small matter.

Daniel wasn't in a hurry as he let Selena and Bryson bring in people and verify the funds to prove the bet was valid.

They even feared Daniel might regret it, so they specifically asked the respected Ethan Turner from Southgate Alley to write up the agreement.

This actually aligned with Daniel's intentions.

"Just wait. They will be the ones crying later!" he thought.

Ethan glanced at Daniel. "Young man, are you sure you want to go through with this bet? To be honest, your chances of winning aren't very high."

As soon as these words were spoken, Selena almost rolled her eyes. She wished she could strangle Ethan for speaking out of turn.

Smiling, Daniel nodded. "A bet's a bet."

After saying that, he quickly signed his name on the agreement.

Ethan looked at Daniel in surprise before sighing.

He had been in Southgate Alley for many years. He was knowledgeable in antiques and calligraphy, and his unique emerald appraisal skills were excellent.

When he entered, he had already taken a look at the designated rows of emerald stones. It was filled with the most ordinary emerald stones—nothing special. It was impossible to bet on them to increase value.
