Chapter 302
Eric suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
He looked at the trays curiously and said, “This…Are a million chips that many?”
The people around also had puzzled looks on their faces as they whispered, “I’ve changed a million chips before. I don’t remember it being that much.”
“Exactly… Each tray has 10,000 chips, right? So, I think there’s roughly around a few hundred of them there.”
“What’s going on? Is there a buy-one-free-one promotion at the casino today?”
While everyone was still perplexed, Eric waved his hands and laughed. “I know! Mr. Glen must honor who I am, so he gave me more chips!”
“Oh, it’s a gift from Mr. Glen!” The crowd suddenly cheered and showed a thumbs-up.
“This is as expected of Mr. Yorkshire of Sunrise Corporation! The big bosses will always respect him no matter where he goes!”
“Tsk tsk, there are definitely over two million chips here! That Kingsley kid lost miserably!”
Eric, who was listening to everyone’s praises, looked at Kingsley with pride as he spoke arrogantly, “What now, boy? Do you know where you stand now? Even the manager of this casino holds high regard for me!”
Then, Eric turned to Jett and beckoned him over.
“Come, tell this loser how many chips did Mr. Glen give me? Is it more than 1,000?”
“About that…” Jett’s face was pallid as he spoke hesitantly, “About that… Mr. Glen did not give you any chips…”
Eric froze slightly at Jett’s hesitant statement.
“What do you mean? He didn’t give me chips? Then why are there so many?!”
“T-That…”
Jett’s face was drained of any color as he stammered a word with trembling lips. Then, Darien stepped forward and pushed the dazzling cart to Kingsley before saying respectfully, “Sir, here are all your 10 million chips. Please have a look!”
Boom!!!
The whole place fell into dead silence as soon as those words came out!
Everyone!
Every single person here!
All of them looked like they had been struck by lightning!
They were stunned in place!
When they saw the thousands of trays on Darien’s cart, it was as if their souls had left their bodies, and they were frozen in place.
The whole place was dead silent for more than two minutes!
Then, a gulp was heard from the crowd.
This tiny sound was deafening in this silence!
Suddenly, everyone seemed to snap back into reality and gasped in surprise.
“D-did I hear things correctly? Did that man really exchange 10 million chips?”
“I doubted my ears as well… This is absurd!”
Most of the people here were from the successful upper class of Diosna City; they would be able to spit out a few million through gritted teeth.
However, it was still shocking for them to see Kingsley spending 10 million at once just to buy chips.
Buying so many chips was tantamount to throwing away money!
Because this was Xanxus’ territory!
Winning or losing tens or hundreds of thousands could easily be brushed off.
But when it involved tens of millions, they did not dare to gamble even if they could win!
In their eyes, Kingsley was just flushing his money down the drain!
Moreover, he was throwing away 10 million!
How could they not be shocked?!
Eric’s face turned green when he heard the gasps around him!
“T-this is impossible… How could you have 10 million?!”
He stared at the cart in front of Kingsley with red eyes as his confidence faltered. “No… There must be a mistake!”
As he said that, he suddenly turned around and grabbed Jett by the collar, roaring, “What the h*ll is going on?! Did you conspire with him to trick me?!”
At this point, Jett had turned white with fear. “No… Mr. Yorkshire, I’m also a victim here…”
“Bang!”
Eric threw Jett to the ground before turning to Kingsley and saying ruthlessly, “What on earth is going on?! What the h*ll did you do?! I refuse to believe that you can afford to have 10 million!”
Although the Sunrise Group was sitting on a large project of 8 billion, Arnold only gave him 200,000 to 300,000 worth of pocket money every month.
He couldn’t figure out how Kingsley, a loser in his early twenties, could throw away 10 million at will!
This was simply too much for him to process!
“I know! It’s you!” Eric stretched out his fingers, pointed at Darien like a madman, and roared.
“It’s you! It’s you who had colluded with Kingsley. He doesn’t have 10 million! Both of you are trying to trick me!”
