Everyone curiously looked toward the staircase.
A man about six feet tall wearing a green tank top, red shorts, and flip-flops walked in, followed by a group of men in suits.
carrying heavy black suitcases. They approached Yvette, guided by a waiter.
It was none other than Eagle King.
Seeing Yvette nod, the men in black opened the suitcases, revealing piles of cash that left everyone amazed.
100 million dollars! Everyone gasped internally. The whopping 100 million dollars dazzled everyone.
Most of the people there were wealthy and familiar with money. But it was the first time they had seen someone brazenly show off 100 million dollars. Even for them, they would need permission from their families to gather that amount.
âWho is this girl? How could she easily conte out with 100 million dollars so quickly?â everyone thought.
Ethanâs expression was grim. He never expected Yvette to actually come up with that much money.
He was sure the money did not come from Ryan. The Lewis family would never hire someone like the poorly dressed man standing opposite him. This meant that the money really came from Yvette herself.
Ryan was also stunned. He had mixed emotions, realizing he had underestimated Yvetteâs abilities.
Eagle King scratched his messy bedhead, and under everyoneâs curious looks, he walked up to Yvette and said in a sleepy tone.
âWhatâs going on, uh... Yve? Why did you decide to play this? Isnât 100 million dollars too little? Why not add more? You rarely show interest in these things. Shouldnât you go all out How about a check?â
Yvette smiled, her eyes showing a hint of amusement. âNo need. Iâm just playing casually. You can step back now.â
Eagle King cast a sympathetic glance at the gloomy man across from him, holding a silent three-minute moment of mourning for him, thinking, âBossâ idea of just playing could really take him out!â
Eagle Kingâs voice came through the roomâs speakers, capturing every word.
Everyone was shocked and thought, âWhat kind of lunatic is this? 100 million dollars isnât enough? Add more? What does just playing casuallyâ even mean? Not having enough fun? What kind of crazy talk is this? Is there no way out for others?
However, seeing the manâs serious expression made it hard not to believe him.
Eagle King stepped aside, glanced at Ryan and Bonnie, then walked over to Bonnie. âHey, girl, did you come with Yve?â he asked.
Bonnie nodded politely. Normally, if she saw someone like Eagle King, she would steer clear and keep her distance. However, she felt that anyone who got along so well with Yvette was definitely a good person.
Eagle King never expected that right after their first meeting, Bonnie would already consider him a âgood person.â
When he found out later, he insisted on becoming Bonnieâs godbrother and wanted to gift her a gold mine, which Bonnie firmly declined before he finally let it go âI-I came with Yve. Hello, Boss,â Bonnie stammered.
Bossâ Eagle King joked. âGirl, I havenât been the âbossâ for many years now,â
Bonnie was amused, and instantly, their relationship became much closer.
1/3 Chapter 52 âCheck it over, and if everythingâs okay, we can start,â Yvette said Ethan gave her a deep look and nodded grimly. âAll right. Iâll use the chips from the gaming hall. Iâm sure thatâs enough for you to trust me with the reputation of Sky Nimbus.â
like.â
Yvette shrugged and nodded indifferently. âAs you lik The crowd outside was astounded by Yvetteâs bold move. Initially, everyone was casually here for the spectacle, but now, they were taking it seriously.
The deputy mayorâs son and a female university student-two people who seemed completely unrelated. This high-stakes gamble was too exciting to miss, If Ethan won, it would be one thing, but if he lost, there could be chaos.
Whatever the result, Yvette would not end up well. However, for someone to casually come up with 100 million dollars, it sejo was hard to believe she did not have any backing.
Right now, the most crucial thing was the uncertain outcome of the bet.
The students from the physics department were already stunned when they saw that 100 million dollars They had only one thought in mind, âHow could she be just a regular student, a girl from the countryside? Sheâs clearly a hidden bigwig!
All they could do was admire her.
Ethan rested his hands on the chair, asking with a sinister tone, âWhat are we betting on? Blackjack? Grand Hazard?â
âGrand Hazard.â Yvette said.
Ethan smirked confidently, thinking. You had the chance to take the easy path, but now youâve barged into hell.â
His best skill was rolling dice. He had won a lot of money from many people with it.
Those outside who knew Ethan sighed, feeling sorry for Yvette. They thought, âIf sheâd chosen another game, maybe she could have taken a chance. But rolling dice? Her luck is just too low...
The physics students heard the chatter and were confused. One brave guy finally asked the person next to him, âHi, what are you talking about?â
The man glanced at the guy who asked the question, wondering if he was someone brought by Ryan. Although it was clear they did not belong to the circle, the man was in a good mood and replied, âYou probably donât know, but Ethan is great at playing dice. Nine out of ten times, he wins. You must be that pretty girlâs friend, right? Sheâs going to have a hard time today.â
Everyone in the physics department heard this and could not help but start worrying about Yvette.
âSince you chose the game, donât accuse me of bullying. You go first. Each round is 1.5 million dollars,â Ethan said.
Yvette sat in the chair, crossing her legs arrogantly. Her worn-out canvas shoes were frayed at the edges, showing they had been worn for a long time.
She extended her long fingers to tap the chips on the table. She waved her hand and said lightly, âI donât like wasting time. 100 million dollars-winner takes all in one round.â
Everyone was shocked, bursting into excitement. They muttered inwardly, â100 million dollars and the winner takes it all in one round? This is definitely the biggest bet in Sky Nimbusâ history!â
Chapter 52 Everyone outside felt that soglayâs het was definitely worth attending.
Eagle King quietly ordered an orange juice when no one was paying attention When Yvette mentioned the bet of 100 million dollars for one round, he was the only one there calmly ipping orange juice.
Bonnie thought the scene looked strange. It was not just her, but everyone outside also felt the same way.
âBoss, arenât you at all concerned about Yve?â Bonnieâs voice was filled with worry. She was so nervous she felt like she might explode.
Eagle King casually sipped his orange juice while fiddling with his phone, even sending a text message He cursed inwardly. That fangirl Flying Fish dares to go missing Sheâs not replying to texts or calls-sheâs really gotten bold!â
âWorried? Whatâs there to worry about? Yve could win even if she played with her toes. 100 million dollars is just for fun to her,â he said.
Eagle King looked up at Bonnieâs puzzled face and added, âDonât worry, girl. Unless Mars collides with Earth, Ethan canât beat her. Relax, hereâs another glass of juice for you.â
Bonnie stiffly accepted the juice from Eagle King. She took a sip It actually tasted pretty good, but her face still showed some worry.
Eagle King sighed, thinking. Bost charm even caught the ladiesâ attention.
Just drink your juice and watch. Trust me, itâs all good,â he told Bonnie.
Hearing what Eagle King said, Bonnie felt much more at ease. She turned to sit next to him, and they started sipping their orange juice together. Somehow, it felt unexpectedly harmonious.
When he heard Yvetteâs words, Ethanâs expression changed immediately. The smug look from a moment ago disappeared instantly.
He never expected the girl across from him to open with a 100 million-dollar bet.
It was not that he could not come up with the money. His grandfather had set aside a fund for him, which happened to be exactly 100 million dollars.
âShould I use the money?â he thought. With so many people watching now, he was in a difficult situation.
Everyone was waiting for Ethanâs response.
