All of Rory’s companions got drunk. If as usual, they certainly wouldn’t dare to challenge him, but today they were driven by alcohol, and cursed, “Don’t be proud of yourself. Don’t think that we didn’t know your plan. You just want to get him drunk. Put up or shut up.”
Rory gritted his teeth angrily. He felt terribly ashamed but didn’t want to walk away like this.
“Mr. Maximilian, I want to play a game with you. What do you think?” Rory suddenly thought of an idea and said with a sinister smile. A pack of cards already appeared in his hand.
Maximilian smiled and said, “Well, what game do you want to play?”
“It’s very simple. We will pick three cards. Whoever has the largest total will win.” After Rory finished speaking, he put the cards on the table.
“Is there a bet then?” Maximilian asked rhetorically.
Rory patted his hand, subconsciously looked at Victoria and Flora, and said, “Of course, there is. The chips are the two beauties next to you.”
“I’m sorry. I won’t promise you.” Maximilian narrowed his eyes and suddenly lost interest in playing this game.
“Why? Are you scared?” Rory seized the opportunity to mock him.
Maximilian shook his head and said, “I just don’t want my wife and my friend to be our entertainment tools. It doesn’t mean that I am scared. Apart from this, we can put a bet on other things.”
After Victoria heard these words, she was very moved. She didn’t expect Maximilian to say that. This result surprised her very much.
Rory couldn’t help but feel pain in his head. To save his face, he had to yield a step and said, “Well, how about one hundred thousand dollars each bet?”
“Okay.” Maximilian nodded.
Rory immediately raised a smile. This was a good opportunity. He was best at playing poker. He believed that he could dissipate Maximilian’s fortune.
Rory picked three cards on the spot. Just then, he found that the total number of these three cards was too small. He was not very satisfied, so he drew out three cards from his pocket.
Rory’s petty action naturally did not escape Maximilian’s eyes. Maximilian had already noticed that Rory was playing a trick. Maximilian stayed unmoved and put his hand under the three cards.
Rory was very confident that the total number of his points would definitely be higher than that of Maximilian’s points. Therefore, he couldn’t help but raise a smile, full of confidence in his heart.
Maximilian didn’t care when he saw Rory’s proud expression. He thought that Rory was too proud of it.
Maximilian also knew how to play poker. He had already changed his cards.
Rory smiled confidently, “This time, you lose. Show your card.”
After Rory finished speaking, he showed his cards, and the total number of points was twenty-four.
All the people present were surprised. They didn’t expect Rory to be so lucky. They couldn’t help but applaud for Rory.
Rory sneered, “This time, you are bound to lose.”
Everyone held little confidence in Maximilian because they all knew that Rory was the Poker Prince, and he rarely lost in poker.
Just then, Maximilian let go of his hand. When Maximilian showed the three cards one by one, Rory’s expression changed. He found it unbelievable.
The points of these three cards were all ten!
And they had different suits. Number ten was the biggest.
Rory did not expect Maximilian to be so lucky to draw three ten-point cards from a deck of poker cards.
