After shouting those words, Molly clenched her teeth and glared at Brian, who was still nonchalant. In fury, she turned around and moved forward.
"If I had lost the game, I would've lost the whole Grand Night Casino, "
Brian replied coldly, his voice showing nonchalance and arrogance.
Molly froze on spot as she heard his words. What did he say?
The whole Grand Night Casino?
The bet in the game between him and Edgar was the whole Grand Night Casino. That was to say...
Suddenly Molly's eyes popped wide in shock when she realized that Brian was the boss of the Grand Night Casino! She jerked her head around and met his deep eyes. "Your bet was the Grand Night Casino? So are you..."
Brian made no response. Instead, he just kept smiling coldly.
Short of breath, Molly felt like a big fool who had been played around. A mocking smile spread across her face. Clenching her teeth with anger, she said, "Mr. Long, I was so stupid to worry about you. Does it make you happy to see other people unnecessarily worried about you?"
Brian didn't speak or blink. He just stared at her with his usual blank, emotionless eyes, like staring into empty space. His indifference and insolence could outrun anybody's patience and make a preacher cuss!
"I am such a big fool!" Staring at Brian, Molly's chest heaved with every breath. Sarcasm was loaded in her voice as she asked, "I suppose that even if I had said I wanted Edgar to win, you still wouldn't have let him win. Am I right?"
Brian sneered, his short-lived good mood disappeared into thin air, like dew on a sunny morning. Hands in pockets, he walked up to Molly and said coldly, "If you had, of course I would've let him win the game!"
"Huh! The whole Grand Night Casino? Are you willing to give it up?" Molly snorted.
Hearing her mocking voice, his face stiffened coldly. "It's just one casino. No big deal to me!" he replied in an indifferent, imperious tone. "Molly Xia, are you underestimating me? Or deep inside, you actually wanted your dear Edgar to win the game, didn't you? You sided against him because you heard how he talked about you. You were just angry about what he said. Right?"
