The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448 

Reign looked at Haylan’s side profile and made a firm decision. She immediately gave up her position and handed her cards to Haylan. 

With Haylan by her side, all her fear, tension, and insecurity vanished without a trace. 

In their place was a sense of relief. 

Haylan was her solid support, her source of security. 

However, as she handed her cards to Haylan, she couldn’t help but cast a curious glance at them. 

Then, she broke out in a cold sweat again. 

The card in her hand was a 10! 

With an 8 and a 10, the total points were 18. 

On the other hand, Buckminster and Fletcher both had 20 points. If she didn’t draw another card, she would definitely lose! Even if she drew another card, the chances of winning against the opponents were still very low. 

“When did they change their cards?” Reign’s mind raced. 

Throughout the game, the deck of cards remained in her possession, and neither Buckminster nor Fletcher had touched them again. So why did the arrangement of her cards change? 

Haylan remained calm and patted Reign’s shoulder. His voice was low and steady as he said, “You lack experience in this realm. You’ve been played. 

“You can’t win this game.” 

“Why? Is it my skill problem?” Reign asked in a low voice. 

“This has nothing to do with your skills. It’s just that this deck has been tampered with. You haven’t dealt with hustlers before, so you’re easy to be fooled 

Haylan sat down and placed two cards in the middle of the gambling table, looking at Buckminster and Fletcher. “You both only have 20 points, not yet reaching 21 points. I understand you have the upper hand, but are you ready to reveal your cards and make your decision?” 

“Cut the crap. Hurry up and show your cards!” Fletcher said angrily. 

Haylan did not even look at Fletcher. His gaze was fixed on Buckminster. “Mr. Payne, your subordinate is a little rude.” 

“I can’t control his personality. Actually, I also want to see your hole card” Buckminster chuckled. 

“You’ll have to pay a price to see my hole card.” 

“What price?” 

“Your life!” 

Haylan stared at Buckminster with a cold gaze and said, “Before I reveal my cards, let’s add another bet. If I win, your life will be mine. 

“If I lose, my life is yours.” 

“Fuck you! Do you know what kind of worthless piece of shit are you? You’re just a bodyguard and not even worthy of polishing our boss’s shoes. Do you think you can gamble your life against our boss?” Fletcher sneered. 

Haylan smirked coldly. 

He flipped open the 8 and presented it to everyone. 

Then, he thicked his wrist. 

The poker card flew towards Buckminster and Fletcher like an arrow. 

The 

e poker card was like a knife! 

It flew out with fierce energy and as fast as lightning. 

“You’re courting death!” 

Fletcher’s gaze was cold. He pulled out his saber and slashed at the poker cards. Fletche 

Clang! 

The sound of metal clashing could be heard as the saber in Fletcher’s hand broke into two.

“Wh-what? Fletcher’s pupils constricted violently, and his face was filled with disbelief. 

The poker card did not slow down. It was still as fast as lightning as it rushed toward Fletcher’s face.
