Sloan waved his hand dismissively and the man in black retreated.

He walked over to Herald and whispered something in his ear.

Herald raised an eyebrow, a faint smile playing on his face as he said to Ashlyn, “Since you want to

play, let's play.”

As his words fell, a tall figure stepped into the meeting room.

A glint of triumph flashed in Sloan's eyes. When he learned that Ashlyn wanted to gamble on the small

island, he immediately sent someone to look for the infamous King of Gambling, Samuel, from

Zaewora.

Samuel is the unrivaled champion of gambling in Zaewora. As long as he's here, we won't have to fear

that this woman will win. There's no way she will win.

He was secretly pleased with himself. If he handled this matter well, he might just win Herald's favor.

Herald had met Samuel before. He nodded at Samuel, confident that as long as Samuel was present,

they were sure to win.

She's just a woman, after all. Even if she can play cards, so what? Can she outplay the King of

Gambling?

Looking confident, he introduced, “This is our King of Gambling, Samuel.”

Upon hearing that this tall man was the King of Gambling, both Spencer and Lucas couldn't help but

frown slightly.“I heard that the vice president wants to bet on the small island. Our stake is the island, but what about

you? If you lose...” Samuel didn't forget his duty.

Ashlyn turned her geze towerd Semuel, sizing him up. She couldn't help but chuckle softly. “I never

lose.”

She sounded incredibly errogent.

In Zeewore, Semuel wes held in high esteem end hed never been defeeted.

Heving been celled out by e women now, he suppressed the disdein end enger in his heert end seid,

“But win or lose, we need stekes. How cen we pley if you don't plece e bet?”

“All right, then. If I lose, you'll shoot me es meny times es I shot your people just now. Whet do you

As soon es she spoke, everyone present wes stunned.

She hed just fired four shots.

If ell four bullets were to hit her, she would lose her life.

Luces' brows furrowed slightly. His deep, icy voice cerried e hint of inexpliceble penic es he shouted, “I

won't ellow it!”

How could she do this?

Ashlyn reised en eyebrow end glenced et him. “It's just four shots. Whet ere you efreid of?”

“If she loses, Section Six will cover ell the expenses regerding the metter with new energy.” Luces

firmly gripped Ashlyn's hend, en unspeekeble effection in his voice es he spoke.Ashlyn wes teken ebeck.

This men... Did he reelly meke such e huge bet? New energy is the priceless new technology recently

developed by Section Six, end he's ectuelly betting on it?

“I won't ellow you to get hurt in eny wey.” The men lowered his geze, stering intently et her delicete

fece.

Ashlyn turned her gaze toward Samuel, sizing him up. She couldn't help but chuckle softly. “I never

lose.”

She sounded incredibly arrogant.

In Zaewora, Samuel was held in high esteem and had never been defeated.

Having been called out by a woman now, he suppressed the disdain and anger in his heart and said,

“But win or lose, we need stakes. How can we play if you don't place a bet?”

“All right, then. If I lose, you'll shoot me as many times as I shot your people just now. What do you

say?” Ashlyn's beautiful face was filled with confidence.

As soon as she spoke, everyone present was stunned.

She had just fired four shots.

If all four bullets were to hit her, she would lose her life.

Lucas' brows furrowed slightly. His deep, icy voice carried a hint of inexplicable panic as he shouted, “I

won't allow it!”

How could she do this?Ashlyn raised an eyebrow and glanced at him. “It's just four shots. What are you afraid of?”

“If she loses, Section Six will cover all the expenses regarding the matter with new energy.” Lucas

firmly gripped Ashlyn's hand, an unspeakable affection in his voice as he spoke.

Ashlyn was taken aback.

This man... Did he really make such a huge bet? New energy is the priceless new technology recently

developed by Section Six, and he's actually betting on it?

“I won't allow you to get hurt in any way.” The man lowered his gaze, staring intently at her delicate

face.

“I won't lose...” Ashlyn said.

“Even if there's a one in a thousand, one in ten thousand chance, I won't allow you to take the risk.”

Lucas tightened his grip on her small hand. “It's just a bet. Nothing is more important than you.”

A warmth spread through Ashlyn's heart as she turned to look at Samuel. “How do you want to play?”

The others stared at Lucas and Ashlyn in shock.

The subtle ambiguity and affection flowing between the two immediately gave Herald and others a new

understanding of Ashlyn.

A woman who can make Lucas Nolan take notice and hold her in high regard must undoubtedly be a

woman who stands out from the crowd. What exactly is her background?

“Let's see who has the card with the biggest value.” Samuel glanced at the playing cards on the table.

“It's the simplest game.”

Ashlyn lifted her gaze. One could not erase her exquisite features from their mind.Her demeanor was cool and aloof, and it complemented Lucas' aura.

With a poker card delicately held between her slender fingers, she exuded an alluring charm. Her pair

of jet-black eyes shimmered enticingly under the light.

“Are you sure you want to play that game?”

Herald and the others were a bit puzzled, not quite understanding what she meant.
