Chapter 1696
"We're not going to be with the Carmine pack." The Knight pack and the Carmine pack have a feud. For the sake of Taya, they will temporarily coexist peacefully, but joining the Carmine pack's team? Impossible.
"Well then, Taya is a member of my Carmine pack. Ms. Duke is her sister, so she's also part of my Carmine pack. Mr. Sterling is neither from the Knight pack nor the Carmine pack, so he can be on my side for now. And Anthony..."
"Stop! Anthony is my good friend, why do you have any ideas about him?!"
"He's just your friend, not a blood relative. Why does he count as a member of the Knight pack?"
"He was my sister's first love, so of course he counts as a member of the Knight pack."
When Preston said this, Anthony suddenly looked up and glanced at Edith. She sat next to Silas, as if she hadn't heard anything, showing no reaction as if the term "first love" didn't mean anything to her anymore. Anthony's lips also showed a hint of bitter smile. Preston seemed to realize that he had said something inappropriate in his haste and quickly changed his words. "Regardless, Anthony is my friend and I will never help anyone from your Carmine pack go against me."
When the two sides were deadlocked in a struggle for numbers, Harper stepped forward to speak up for her husband. "Mr. Carmine, Taya is already mated to Griffon. Therefore, she is a member of the Knight pack. I also mated Preston, making me a member of the Knight pack as well. As for Mr. Sterling, he is my brother, so naturally he's on my side."
"Alright, you can team up with whoever you want. We four can defeat you anyway," Herb said, then turned to Johnny and raised his eyebrows. "Right, cousin?"
Johnny gave him a cold glance. What luck was he playing? Didn't he know he had bad luck?!
From his angry eyes, Herb could see a sense of determination, which made him not afraid at all. He raised his fair hand and patted the table. "Alright, everyone, let's start betting!"
Miles loved playing this kind of game, so when he heard the word "bet," he immediately threw his gambling chips onto the table. "I bet one million that I will win!"
