Sloan waved his hand dismissively and the man in black retreated.
He walked over to Herald and whispered something in his ear.
Herald raised an eyebrow, a faint smile playing on his face as he said to Ashlyn, “Since you want to play, let's play.”
As his words fell, a tall figure stepped into the meeting room.
A glint of triumph flashed in Sloan's eyes. When he learned that Ashlyn wanted to gamble on the small island, he immediately sent someone to look for the infamous King of Gambling, Samuel, from Zaewora.
Samuel is the unrivaled champion of gambling in Zaewora. As long as he's here, we won't have to fear that this woman will win. There's no way she will win.
He was secretly pleased with himself. If he handled this matter well, he might just win Herald's favor.
Herald had met Samuel before. He nodded at Samuel, confident that as long as Samuel was present, they were sure to win.
She's just a woman, after all. Even if she can play cards, so what? Can she outplay the King of Gambling?
Looking confident, he introduced, “This is our King of Gambling, Samuel.”
Upon hearing that this tall man was the King of Gambling, both Spencer and Lucas couldn't help but frown slightly.
“I heard that the vice president wants to bet on the small island. Our stake is the island, but what about you? If you lose...” Samuel didn't forget his duty.
