The effects were quite strong after the three snaps. Cold sweats started to trickle down Harvey York’s forehead when he seemed really anxious.After seeing what happened, Jason Leo knew that the mild hypnosis was no longer working that well on Harvey. He needed to overwhelm Harvey with something else…He had no choice but to fan the flames.“Why don’t we raise the stakes even higher?”A playful smirk was showing on Jason’s face.“If you add another card and still win against me, I’ll cancel my engagement with Queenie York! How’s that sound?!”Queenie stood up furiously.“Don’t do it, Harvey!” bellowed Queenie.Anyone could tell that Harvey had one too many cards already.“If we win this round, we’ll win everything! A wedding is nothing compared to this!” Leslie Clarke screamed.“Don’t do anything reckless, Sir York!” yelled Yoana Mendoza.“Other than that, I can even be your humble servant! I’ll bite whoever you ask me to!” said Jason calmly after hearing all the furious scr
When Vince York came out of the blue to cause trouble, Harvey York glanced at him with a cold gaze.Vince, who wanted to keep provoking Harvey, could not help but have his heart skip a beat.He instinctively looked at Jason Leo before an unbelievable thought came to mind.Jason’s face had completely lost all color. He reached out his hand while emotionlessly staring into Harvey’s eyes, then snapped his fingers once more.His mild hypnosis, which had always worked in the past, had no effect whatsoever. Nothing happened besides a bit more blood coming out of Jason’s mouth.Harvey calmly smiled.“No need to snap your fingers again. It’s useless.“Your mild hypnosis has no effect on me.”Jason’s expression frantically changed, as if he realized that Harvey had already seen through his tricks.He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.“I don’t know what you’re talking about, Harvey.“If you’re going to accuse me of cheating, then you better show some solid proof!“I
Pure shock!The entire crowd was completely shocked!The Knights Templar that Jason Leo brought along were all frozen stiff while feeling extremely sluggish.One of them even slapped himself across the face a couple of times to make sure that he was not dreaming.Queenie York and the others stayed calm to lessen the impact of what just happened.The God of Gambling!This was the true God of Gambling!Harvey York had already planned everything since the very beginning!Jason, who had been talking big the entire time, was just a clown at this point!Even if he kept pressuring Harvey…Even if he kept forcing Harvey to add more cards so he would feel powerless…Harvey still managed to win despite all this!This was ridiculous! This was simply shocking!Jason immediately figured that Harvey might have been unaffected by the mild hypnosis since the beginning and that he was just acting the whole time…So Jason would pay a huge price.“An ace of spades?! Am I dreaming?!“We wo
Along with Harvey York’s words, two LCD TVs slowly descended.Mateo Leo’s matches were being played on the TVs.Every time he snapped his fingers, the opponent’s eyes would be in a daze before asking for another card. Everything could be seen in the footage.This was the biggest proof there was. Nobody would've seen anything odd if it was just a single footage.But since there was a lot of different footage, even an idiot would figure something out after seeing Mateo doing the same thing repeatedly.Jason’s match was played on TV soon after.Every time he snapped his fingers, Harvey would ask for another card. Everything was clearly shown to the people.The crowd gasped. They were completely shocked before showing derisive looks toward Jason.Jason immediately showed a horrible expression. He understood why he lost that day. Harvey had already seen through his tricks and planned around them beforehand.He coldly glared at Mateo. If it were not for the useless fool playing it s
Jason’s expression took a drastic turn upon seeing all the firearms pointed at him.He narrowed his eyes. Then, he laughed coldly. “So what if you win against me, Harvey?”“You want my life? Do you have the right to do that?”“As the baron of The Empire, the deputy commander of the Knights Templar, and a God of War, you have no right to take my life!”Mateo stood up furiously, his hand on the firearm strapped on his waist.“Protect Young Master Leo!”About twenty descendants of the Knights Templar stood up in an instant at his command, their eyes sharpened into fierce glares.They were quite capable, and every single one of them had the strength to fight ten people on their own.Even if Harvey had a lot more men compared to them, they were still fearless.Vince’s expression changed as well.“You insulted Young Master Leo at the table before, Harvey! This round doesn’t count!”“If you’re still going to cause trouble here, you’ll be going against me and the Yorks of Hong Kon
“Go!”Eighteen Longmen disciples went right after Jason upon Morgan’s command.Some of them wielded swords, while others wielded shackles. They wanted to put Jason in place before anything else.Harvey would have the final say as to whether Jason would live or die.Those from wealthy families immediately changed their expressions at such a sight. They knew full well that a big fight was about to break out.“Stay back!”Mateo took a step forward and took the safety of his gun off before pulling the trigger at the approaching disciples.Bang, bang, bang!Bullets flew out everywhere. The disciples didn’t have time to react and were all shot in an instant.Bang, bang, bang!When Mateo was done firing the round, he pounced forward and sent the disciples flying with his fists.In just a single moment, the Longmen disciples who took action were all beaten up.The remaining disciples showed utterly horrible expressions.They didn’t expect the Knights Templar to be this unreasonabl
“If you know what’s best for you, you’ll get as far away from here as possible!”“The so-called contract doesn’t count!”“Let me go, and maybe I’ll think of canceling the engagement between me and Queenie!”“You’ll get the top four families of Hong Kong to send half of their assets right to my doorstep, then put the Mordu Casino-Palace under my name! I’ll consider leaving their subordinates alive after that.”“I’m being extremely generous right now!”Jason’s expression was as cold as ice as he threatened Harvey.“Since you won, I’ll give you a chance.”“Don’t blame me for what happens next if you don’t do as I say!”Harvey narrowed his eyes at Jason.“I don’t care if you cancel the engagement or if you’ll bury the hatchet.”“Everything’s written in black and white right here.”“We have video footage too.”“Since you lost, you’ll have to acknowledge it and abide by the contract.”“But now, not only are you denying it, but you’re also trying to haggle with me.”“Have you lo
As expected, murderous intent could be seen on Jason’s face as he turned to glare at Vince.Harvey used the opportunity to push even harder.“You asked Jason to come back and go on with his engagement, so there’ll be no obstacles for you when you rise to power.”“I’m about to kill this guy, yet you’re here shedding crocodile tears?”“You… You b*stard…!”Vince was shivering in anger.He didn’t think that Harvey would shamelessly make him the scapegoat.Under these circumstances, there was no way for him to explain himself .Thinking back, Jason might’ve ended up this way because of Vince’s “hard work.”Jason’s eyes brightened in anger.“Stop trying to provoke us, Harvey!” he roared.“I won’t be fooled by your tricks!”“Do you know the consequences of going against me?!”“You won’t dare lay a single finger on me!”“I’m the baron of The Empire! I’m about to become the earl, to boot!”“I’m the deputy commander of the Knights Templar! I’m this close to being the commander!”
