Come Back to Me novel Chapter 3

The lights were all brightly shining, but the night was hazy. Situated in a suburb of C City, the Kylin Entertainment Casino exclusively catered to the upper class as a place of entertainment.

Tracy, dressed in casual clothes, stopped in front of the large casino. She hesitated for a while before she entered.

She liked gambling, not for fun, but to vent. This was how she sought release when she was unhappy.

The extravagance of the casino could be described as being splendid in a golden and magnificent way. It was not an exaggeration to call this entertainment place as a "Royal Palace".

Walking around the dazzling room, she headed towards the fancy VIP area that consisted of several private rooms, where only a few of the upper class in C City were qualified to enter.

As a frequent visitor, no one dared to prevent her or challenge her when she entered one of the private rooms.

She pushed the door open and walked inside. From the gambling table, many people looked up and fixed their eyes on her.

However, there was a rule in the casino that the gamblers were not allowed to make any noise, so most people simply lowered their heads after their initial surprise, and continued their games.

She glanced around the room calmly, and then looked at the man sitting in the middle of the table, and a naughty smile flitted on her lips.

The man, who sat opposite her, wore a black casual jacket. His face was a little cold, and surprisingly solemn. As soon as he saw her, he returned her a wicked smile.

As she noticed the meaning and provocation in his eyes, she curled her lips, and walked up to the gambling table.

She could instantly make sense of what was going on at the gambling table.

It was a common game of chance.

The banker was the man opposite her. People bet most of their chips on either numbers 2, 3, or 4, but not on number 1.

She looked speculatively at the man's cold face, narrowed her eyes aggressively for a few seconds, and then she randomly picked up a chip from one of the women taking part in the game and placed it on number 1.

"I'm all in!"

Tracy's crisp voice cut through the quiet air, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

The crowd burst into an uproar, followed by voices filled with pity.

However, the man who sat opposite her was gazing at her calm yet sorrowful face.

"All of it? How much do you have?" The man smiled keenly.

His magnetic voice instantly stilled the chaos among the crowd, and different and complicated gazes were soon fixed on Tracy. After all, she looked like a little girl who really seemed too young.

"Not much, just a billion." Tracy put on a smile at the understatement.

The man gazed at her without saying anything, but her words once again caused an uproar among the other gamblers.

It was not because Tracy had placed a large bet. In fact, anyone who was able to come to the Kylin Entertainment Casino was wealthy, but they stared because there was something wrong with her bet.

All the people had placed their bets on numbers 3, 2, and 4. But she now placed her bet on number 1. It was obvious that she would definitely lose. Even if she was rich, she could not simply throw away a billion on a poor bet.

"Little girl, it's not a joke. Do you really want to do this?"

A woman dressed in the opulent garments, was standing next to her, and she couldn't help but kindly remind Tracy of the folly of her decision. Her eyes were full of worry, and she wondered whether the girl knew how to play the game or not.

"Yes, I'll bet on number 1," Tracy replied with confidence and firmness as glancing at the lady.

The gathered gamblers all sighed even more deeply.

With a bright smile on her face, Tracy said, "Mr. Yan, you can reveal your cards now."

The man curled his lips shrewdly but didn't say anything. Instead he hinted to the dealer beside him to reveal the final answer.

For a moment, everyone held their breath and lapsed into silence…
