The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 434

Chapter 434 

Reign could almost hear her heart beating. She clenched her hands and looked at the spinning dice. She held her breath and was so nervous that her palms were sweating. 

If she won, she did not need Herbert and Xander at all. 

However, if she lost, she would lose Haylan. 

She did not want to suffer such an outcome! 

“Three sixes, three sixes.” Reign stared at the dice and prayed in her heart. 

Seeing her like this, Haylan felt strange. 

As soon as a person stepped onto the gambling table and placed his most beloved item on the table, no matter what kind of person he was, how many assets he had, or how high his status was, he would be a gambler who would fail. 

It went for Princess Carina just now, and it went for Reign now, too. 

Christine also stared at the dice and kept shouting in her heart, “Three ones, three ones!” 

Sybil regained her composure and looked at everything with a smile. 

In the end, under everyone’s gaze, the spinning speed of the dice slowed down and they finally stopped. The numbers were 4, 5, and 6. 

“Aha!” 

Christine laughed and jumped up excitedly. “I won!” 

Reign looked at the point and widened her eyes. She sat on the chair dejectedly and muttered, “How is this possible? How…. how is this possible?” 

She had clearly followed the method that Haylan had taught her to spin the dice just now. Why didn’t she get three sixes? 

Why? 

“Gambling requires luck, but luck can’t be manipulated.” 

Haylan looked at Reign and comforted her gently. “Moreover, nine out of ten gamblers are scammers, and the left one is a cheater. It’s already very good that you can get 4, 5, and 6 with the dice. 

“As for Christine’s 5, 6, and 6, that’s just luck. 

“With this kind of dice, no one can get three sixes unless they are specially trained experts.” 

“Why?” Reign was puzzled. 

“Because this is a gambling table. Take your time and think about it yourself,” Haylan said. 

Christine walked over and immediately brought Haylan to her side. She smiled and said, “Ms. Labenz, I’m sorry. I won. So, your man is mine tonight.” 

Reign grabbed Haylan’s hand and said in a deep voice, “Ms. C 

away?” 

“Ms. Labenz, I’m sorry. I only like men, not money.” 

name a price. How can I stop you from taking him 

Christine smiled, patted Reign’s hand away, took Haylan’s hand, and left. 

Reign watched as Haylan left like this. Guilt, regret, unwillingness, sadness, and all kinds of negative emotions surged into her heart, causing her eyes to turn red and tears to run down her pretty face. 

At this moment, she felt as if her entire body had been hollowed out, and her heart was empty. 

These two streams of tears made her look very pitiful. 

Haylan’s heart ached when he saw her like this. 

He broke free from Christine’s hand and walked over to wipe Reign’s tears. He comforted her, “This is garbling. As long as you go to the gambling table, you will be in someone else’s trap, and you will lose very badly. 

“Some people will even lose everything and even their families will be destroyed. 

“So, remember this lesson. Think it over to yourself on the evening of my absence. Don’t gamble again next time. 

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine over there.” 

As he spoke, he even hugged Reign and patted her head to comfort her, saying it was okay. 

The reason why he didn’t stop Reign from gambling with Christine and others was to teach Reign a lesson and let her know what the price of gambling was. 

Only after experiencing such a blow could Reign grow up from the setback. In the future, when facing a foxy man like Sharvin, she would have a higher chance of winning. 

When Christine saw this scene, she was burning with jealousy, 

Back when she was with Haylan, Haylan had never treated her so gently. Comparisons were indeed odious. 

She was so furious that she walked up and pulled Haylan away. “Haylan, be aware of your position. She lost you to me. You’re mine now. Come with me now.” 

As she spoke, she held Haylan’s hand and left angrily, 

“Hey, wait for me. Sybil lost, too. Bring me along 

Xander’s expression changed. He immediately went to chase after Haylan and Christine. 

This was Sovereign of Shadows. He had to follow him! 

*Protect Princess Carina and Miss Labenz. Don’t act rashly without my orders. This is an order!” 

Haylan formed his voice into a line and instructed Xander to protect the two women. 

Xander immediately stopped in his tracks and stood on the spot. 

He had to obey the Sovereign’s orders.
