Chapter 1032

It was a fantastic work of embroidery that depicted the hilly landscape of Glanchester. It was a work of art which sheer beauty se

emed to exceed even that of reality where it weaved the mountainous landscape into an abstract form of art.

It was comparably more valuable than the other two prizes.

Sylvia was immediately enchanted by the wonderful work of art and could not pluck her eyes off of it.

“Do you like it?”

Odell‘s voice heavy with bass sounded in her ear.

She promptly answered with a soft nod, “Yeah.”

Who would not fall in love with such exquisite craftsmanship?

That was when the manager of the venue asked again, “Master Carter, Master Stockton, would the two of you be interested in joi

ning?”

“I'm fine with anything,” John replied before turning to Odell with a quick smile. “Master Carter, are you interested?”

Odell replied, “Sure.”

Sylvia looked at him in surprise.

Odell noticed the ways she

looked at him and met her gaze. He brought a smile upon his lips and vowed in a low voice, “Wait for the good news.”

Sylvia was speechless.

Was he saying that he was going to win the embroidery for her?

What, with his lackluster skill that had not even got the correct guess even once?

She pursed her lips and swallowed whatever offensive words that were about to emerge from her lips.

Since Odell had already given his word to John, she figured she could not spoil his moment in front of John.

John turned to the manager. “Alright, count us in.”

The manager announced politely, “Alright, it will begin in just ten minutes. Master Carter, Master Stockton, please head to the

event space if you will. Thank you.”

With that, he left with his crew of staff members.

John turned to Odell and smiled. “Come on, let's head over there.

Odell nodded amiably. “Sure.”

He rose and took Flint in one hand while taking Sylvia‘s hand with the other.

John followed after and reached for Sherry‘s hand.

She hesitated for a moment but ended up offering him her hand anyway.

Shortly after, they arrived at a large room only adjacent to their previous room.

There were already some people here, most of them were participants in the game as well.

It was not a very packed venue, with only close to ten men at most. Most of them were accompanied by at

least two beautiful ladies in skimpy clothing.

When Sylvia entered, she immediately saw several of these ladies sitting on the laps of their male companions.

She was abashed by this scene and immediately covered Flint's eyes.

Odell frowned as well.

John immediately turned to the manager.

The manager

was very perceptive and immediately turned to the present group and informed, “These gentlemen are Master Carter and Master

Stockton.”

Awave of silence immediately swarmed over the room, and all of the ladies immediately scuttled back to their seats.

All of the men rose one after another and went to greet the new guests.

“Master Stockton, Master Carter, your reputation precedes you. I'm Michael from Glanchester's Royal Cavalier's Hotel.”

“Master Stockton, Master Carter, good to see you two. The name is Benjamin but you can just call me Ben.”

It was a stark transformation from their previous indecent

behavior. They had put on their masks and suddenly turned into formal businessmen again.

John responded with a faint smile. Then he invited Odell to take a seat at the center of the long table.

Odell sat down with Flint in his arms, and Sylvia took a seat next to him.

John sat across from them with his arms around Sherry.

The others followed suit and sat with them at the table afterward.

After a while, the manager showed up again with a dealer following him.

He began to disclose the rules, “Ladies and gentlemen, we'll begin very shortly. Before that, let me explain the rules. It's very sim}

ups.”

With that, he looked around the room and asked, “Does anyone have any questions?”

Ayoung man sitting between two women raised a question,” What if two of us end up with a tie at the end of the round?”

The manager smiled and informed, “In that case, there will be a tiebreaker round where the two will compete against each other

again.”

With that, he asked the room again, “Does anyone have any other questions? If there are no more questions, we shall begin.”

He was looking at John and Odell as he said this.

Odell had Flint in his arms and seemed rather disinterested.

John smiled and nodded to give the signal.

The manager

announced in a booming voice, “Please get ready, everyone. We shall now commence the game!” With that, he retreated into the
