Chapter 476
The joy that had just lit Logan’s face vanished in an instant.
Jade had not expected her husband to embarrass her in public. She gritted her teeth, stepped forward, and said, “Honey, about this matter-”
“Is this a place for you to speak?” Stephen cut in, his voice cold. “Go back inside.”
Jade’s expression shifted. She tried to speak again, but Sully Garcia murmured beside her, “My dear sister–in–law, please don’t say anything for now.”
Only then did Stephen turn to Dominic with a faint smile. “Play without worry.”
Dominic tilted his head, glanced at him, and nodded calmly.
He could not tell whether the two men were putting on a show. Stephen had arrived at neither an early nor a late moment, but precisely at this critical point. The timing was hard to ignore.
Logan stared at the chips on the table, cold sweat soaking his back. If he admitted to cheating, he would lose more than 100,000,000 dollars. He could afford the loss, but once his father returned from abroad, the explanation would not be easy.
‘If I continue gambling…‘ A flash of defiance crossed Logan’s eyes. He refused to believe Dominic’s luck could hold forever. ‘He only has 40,000,000 dollars in chips. I can spare up to 200,000,000 dollars. Right now, the advantage is mine.‘
With that thought, Logan clenched his jaw. “I choose to continue gambling.”
Dominic remained composed and nodded. “Shake the dice.”
Logan drew a deep breath and repeatedly pressed the button to shake. More than a full minute passed before he finally stopped.
At once, he watched in dread as Dominic pushed all his chips forward and bet small,
’40,000,000 dollars! All in again! How dare he?!‘
“Open it.”
Logan lifted the lid, and his vision darkened.
Dominic won again.
40,000,000 became 80,000,000 dollars.
Sweat poured down Logan’s face. He pulled out a handkerchief and wiped it again and again.
This time he said nothing. He silently pushed the chips to Dominic and began shaking the dice once
more,
1/3
But Dominic did not even glance at the chips before calmly pushing them out again.
By now, the crowd had gone numb
They were stunned by Dominic’s audacity.
Earlier, he had relied on the halo of his grandfather’s reputation. Now, he himself commanded attention
Many influential figures were present.
Dominic’s boldness was striking, and his luck carried an almost uncanny quality.
In this single round of gambling, he had made a name for himself and left a lasting impression on many
in the room.
Luck was not a liability, Businessmen often believed in it even more than others did. Who would refuse to partner with someone favored by fortune?
In the next round, the 80,000,000 dollars Dominic pushed forward won again. His chips climbed to 160,000,000 dollars.
Logan’s entire body began to tremble. He stammered, “W–What the hell? This is impossible. Absolutely
ssible.”
could win more than ten consecutive rounds?
it had happened.
Logan had watched Dominic the entire time and was certain he had not cheated. Then how had he done it? Was it truly just luck?
It was already dinner time. No one suggested leaving. No one moved. The spectacle held them in place.
20,000 dollars had turned into 160,000,000 dollars. Even the God of Gamblers could not have done
