Chapter 776
Betrayal At The Altar (Rachel and David)
Chapter 776
Ronnie raised his hand and picked up the cards on the table. Without even looking at the croupier, he
said indifferently, âDid you hear that? This is a blatant warning. Donât even look at another manâs
woman, let alone covet her.â
When the croupier heard this, he lowered his eyes in panic and methodically shuffled and dealt the
cards.
Rachel was about to take the card from the croupier, but David took it first.
Seeing this, Rachel bowed her head to hide the faint smile on her face. âWell, David is jealous again.â
This time, they played blackjack, too.
The buzz-cut man and Chris delivered the chips to them.
Rachel glanced at the cards and threw out 2 million dollars worth of chips.
Ronnie could not help but raise his eyebrows when he saw the chips being suddenly thrown out. âMiss
Grey, you seem to be always so confident.â
However, it was precisely her self-confidence and cold temperament that fascinated Ronnie.
Hearing this, Rachel raised her eyebrows. âItâs only 2 million dollars. Could it be that Mr. Diekens canât
afford to lose?â
Ronnie sneered. A feeling of being despised arose in his heart, making him inexplicably angry. âItâs just
2 million dollars.â
As he spoke, he casually threw out 2 million dollars worth of chips, and then he threw out another 4
million dollars worth of chips.
âMr. Diekens, you are so generous,â Rachel commented.
These words made Ronnie feel awkward.
He knew that Rachel still hated him because of Lone Wolf, so he pursed his lips and did not say
anything.
He showed his cards, which added up to exactly 20 points.
Chapter 776
Rachelâs cards, on the other hand, added up to 18 points. Clearly, she lost.
Soon, the second round started, and Rachel threw out 6-million-dollar chips without looking at the
cards.
Ronnie naturally threw out the corresponding chips, too.
The two of them had a contest with each other. Seeing that there were more and more chips, even the
croupier, who was used to seeing big scenes, could not help but feel dizzy.
Perhaps Lady Luck was dozing off. Rachel had been unlucky so far, and she lost in the second round,
too.
Rachel held her chin with one hand and sighed faintly. Her worried expression did not make people feel
disgusted, instead, her pitiful posture made people feel pity for her.
Looking at the big pile of chips in front of him, Ronnie smiled gloatingly. âDavid Jones, it looks as if the
Harbor Dock is destined to be mine!â
âIs that so?â Without waiting for David to speak, Rachel asked, âMaybe I can win back all the chips the
next round, canât I?â
After the croupier heard her words, a hint of disdain flashed across his
eyes.
The people who came to the casino would neither accept their fate nor know how to stop loss in time.
They would, like Rachel, only hold to the idea of leaving things to chance and think that they would
make a
comeback sooner or later.
Hence, they kept sinking into the mud until they could not extricate themselves.
The third round began. Rachel still looked nonchalant, but her gaze fell on the cards in the croupierâs
hand. Her red lips curled up slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her face.
Looking at the cards, Rachel pushed out all the chips in front of her. âAll in!â
Ronnie raised his eyebrows slightly after hearing this. With a confident posture, he pushed out all the
chips in front of him, too. âCall!â
At this moment, the chips at the center of the table were already equal to two small targets.
Chapter 776
This meant that once Ronnie won, not only could he take away all the chips on the table, but he could
also easily obtain the north of the Harbor Dock.
Ronnie was the first to show his cards. The smile on his face made him look more handsome. âAnother
20 points. Iâll surely win this round!â
âIs that so?â Rachel held her chin with one hand and unhurriedly turned over the cards in front of her
one by one. âUnfortunately, you are only a point away.â
Her cards added up to exactly 21 points.
Rachelâs cards were a point more than Ronnieâs!
Ronnie looked at her cards with his eyes wide open.
The probability of 20 points appearing on the gambling table was very low, let alone 21 points.
However, Rachelâs cards added up to exactly 21 points, neither more nor
less.
After a moment, Ronnie composed himself and raised his chin proudly. He snorted softly. âYou are
lucky!â
âIâm not really lucky.â Rachel crossed her legs and leaned lazily against the seat. âItâs all thanks to this
handsome manâs help. If he hadnât tampered with the cards, I wouldnât have won.â
After the croupier heard what Rachel had said, he looked pale and his eyes were filled with panic.
In fact, this handsome croupier had been secretly tampering with the cards during the three rounds of
gambling.
He could tell that Ronnie treated Rachel exceptionally well, so he simply wanted to do Ronnie a favor
and fulfill his wish.
He thought that he had done it flawlessly, but he hadnât expected Rachel to have seen everything.
âSo, handsome boy, youâre the reason why I was able to win everything back tonight.â Rachel glanced
at him with a faint smile.
âHeh!â The tip of Ronnieâs tongue pressed against his palate as he let out a light laugh. The laugh was
short, but it made people feel nervous and
jumpy.
Chapter 776
He threw the cards in his hand on the table and said coldly, âWho asked you to do this?â
The croupier felt as if his heart were being gripped by a hand. He held his breath for a moment, and a
layer of cold sweat unknowingly seeped out of his forehead and slowly slid down his temples.
His fear of Ronnie made his legs weak, but he had no choice but to force himself to stay where he was.
The croupier swallowed hard and explained in a low voice, âMr. Ronnie, I⦠I thought it wasâ¦â
âWho the hell wanted you to think that way!â Ronnie scolded him coldly. At the same time, Ronnie gave
the buzz-cut man a look.
The buzz-cut man instantly understood, and then he walked forward with a man in black to take the
croupier away.
The croupier panicked and scrambled to Ronnieâs feet. He reached out and hugged Ronnieâs feet
tightly. âMr. Diekens, I was wrong. I wonât do it again! Please give me another chance. Really, I beg
youâ¦â
Ronnie looked down at the croupier. There was no pity in his eyes, and his thin lips were as cold as ice.
He said in an extremely cold way, âIf you say another word, you wonât be able to keep your tongue.â
After the croupier heard what Ronnie had said, his expression changed rapidly.
The croupier wanted to say something else, but the buzz-cut man wouldnât give him another chance.
He gagged the croupier and dragged him out forcefully.
The croupier looked at Rachel sadly, trying to obtain a trace of pity from her. However, Rachel looked
extremely cold and ignored him.
completely.
The croupierâs original intention was to frame Rachel. If she hadnât seen through his little trick, she
would have lost everything.
Therefore, why would she pity him?
Giving someone who tried to hurt one a second chance was nothing more than giving him/her a second
chance to kill one.
The croupier didnât know what feelings his boss had for this woman of

outstanding appearance.
âIf Mr. Diekens doesnât have an inordinate desire for her, why did he welcome her as a distinguished
guest instead of holding her accountable after knowing that she caused trouble in the factory?
âTherefore, he must have an inordinate desire.
âIf so, according to Mr. Diekensâs style of doing things, what kind of despicable means could not be
used? But why did he choose to let her go?â
