The Deadly Assassin Robin novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11 Betting the Dunns' 50-Billion Investment
Zachary's eyes sparkled with enthusiasm.

He was certain of his riding and shooting abilities, confident that he was unrivaled not only in Harmonfield but also on the Gold Coast.

His love for these sports began in his youth, and he had accumulated numerous awards over the years.

The previous year, he had won the national amateur championship in riding and shooting for adults.

If Robin agreed to participate, it would be the perfect chance to publicly humiliate him.

"Fantastic! How would you like to compete? Team event or individual?" Zachary inquired, giving Robin a disdainful look.

"I can handle it on my own. You can choose whether it's a one-on-one or a team event," Robin responded coolly.

"However, this competition feels a bit dull. If you're serious about competing, let's spice things up—let's place a bet!"

Zachary's interest was piqued. This guy is about to meet his match in a bet on riding and shooting!

"Alright! That'll make it more interesting. What's the wager? Mr. Ramsey, are you ready to bet a few bucks?" He chuckled, joined by Raymond, Alice, and Vera in laughter.

Robin glanced at Shirley before continuing, "I'll wager the entire Dunns' investment in the Eastvale Ecological Project!"

Shirley's body tensed, nearly spilling the glass of water she had just picked up.

Trembling, she set it down on the coffee table, her mind racing. Is he serious?

The Dunns' total investment in the Eastvale Ecological Project is nearly 50 billion!

Offering that as a bet is nothing short of outrageous.

This isn't a mere game.

A loss in this competition that costs 50 billion, even with our immense wealth, would deal a serious blow to our resources.

Robin's proposal stunned not just Shirley but also Zachary, Raymond, Alice, and the rest.

Is he really serious about this?

The 50 billion investment is far from trivial.

The project's future returns were expected to be enormous.

Many in Harmonfield would do anything for even a fraction of that, making it highly improbable that Shirley or the Dunns would agree to such a wager that Robin proposed so casually.

After a moment of shocked silence, Zachary sneered at Robin. "Ms. Dunn, he's suggesting a bet on the entire Dunns' investment in the Eastvale project. Do you accept? Does Mr. Dunn Sr. approve?"

Shirley was genuinely conflicted.

Yet Robin had been the Dunn's rescuer.

Her grandfather had said that even if it meant risking all the Dunns' assets, they would still consider it.

Furthermore, Robin's bet was merely the 50 billion investment in the Eastvale project.

Even if they lost, it wouldn't be completely out of the realm of reason for the Dunns.

Determined, Shirley set her jaw and declared, "Of course! If Robin is putting it on the line, then I agree!

"But are you bold enough to take on a bet of this scale with the Dunns?"

Zachary and the others were taken aback.

Shirley was right. A 50 billion wager exceeded their combined financial capacity.

Seeing their hesitation, Robin smiled nonchalantly. "You don't have to bet that much. Just 300 million in cash will suffice.

"If you're too timid for even this modest bet, then leave now and stop yapping!"

Robin signaled to several staff members at the venue to bring over the betting contract.

Daphne's Violetcrest Club, renowned for its luxury amenities and entertainment options, also provided betting services.

Wealthy patrons often sought additional excitement in their leisure activities.

They would typically ask the club to handle betting services and other gambling-related arrangements privately.

This meant that specialized staff were assigned to manage contract signings, oversee match arbitration, and handle other administrative duties.

Once a contract was finalized at the Violetcrest Club, it became legally binding.

Failure to honor the agreement would lead to enforcement by the club's dedicated team.

Daphne's reputation for managing such matters was well-established in Harmonfield, and no one dared to breach a contract there.

300 million dollars?
