When Victor and the others saw the foreigner folding, they quietly breathed a sigh of relief. They were really holding their breaths for Philip earlier. Yolanda’s face also relaxed a little. Philip smiled and said, “Didn’t you say you could beat me if you drew a straight? Why did you fold?” The foreigner grunted. At the casino, luck was still very important at the beginning. Even an expert might not be confident to win against a rookie like Philip. Moreover, with the few cards just now, Philip’s points were higher than his. If the kid really got lucky, it would not be worth it. “I was afraid a young lad like you might lose your hand, so I’m letting you win a game first,” the foreigner said. Philip glanced at the foreigner's hole card covered under his hand, smiled slightly, and said, “Then I'll have to thank you for the 150,000 dollars.” After saying that, he took the three chips worth 50,000 dollars that the foreigner pushed over. The second round began. The ho

“How about it, Mr. Clarke? It’s time for you to reveal your card! Now that you’ve seen my hole card, are your hands shaking so much that they can’t hold onto your card anymore?” the foreigner taunted. Philip said to the foreigner, “Since I’ve staked everything I have, I won’t regret it. But for you to call my 150,000 dollars, aren’t you afraid of losing? I advise you to back out now while I haven’t revealed my card.” The foreigner waved his hand and said, “Do you think it’s useful to intimidate me?” While saying that, he took two chips from in front of him and threw them on the table. “Go on. I don't believe your luck is still as good as the last hand!” Philip shook his head and said, “You're right, I had good luck in the last hand. The odds of having good luck two hands in a row are pretty small.” As Philip said that, he used two fingers to pick up his hole card. “However, I don’t know why, but my luck is really that good. Are you angry?” With that said, he tossed his ho

“You!” Yolanda’s eyes instantly popped wide open. She was a very strong-headed woman. This time, if not for the special circumstances, she would never have agreed to come over and gamble with Randolph. Moreover, Randolph took advantage of Yolanda’s unwillingness to admit defeat and eagerness to win, goading her into borrowing money to continue gambling. Before Yolanda could finish speaking, Philip waved his hand and interrupted her words. Philip smiled and said, “I agree to the raise.” Victor was surprised. Did Philip have the confidence to win? However, looking at the situation in front of him, a miracle could not happen twice. The chances of winning were too small! “Hahaha, Mr. Clarke, you’re such a decisive person!” the foreigner said as he pushed out another five million dollars in chips. Now, the foreigner had seven million dollars worth of chips out on the table. “Philip, what are you saying? How dare you use me as a bet?” Yolanda was anxious now. Although she

“Mr. Clarke, you’re too hasty.” The foreigner suddenly laughed and said, “You're too eager to win back the money the little b*tch has lost. The two million you have now, plus the five million you raised, makes it a total of seven million dollars. Do you want to make a comeback? I won’t give you that chance. I’m folding this hand.” After saying that, he pushed his chips to Philip and turned over his hole card—seven of hearts. The audience was surprised and murmured. Philip ignored the foreigner's words and silently turned over his hole card as well. It was an ace of spades! Instantly, the private room fell into a dead silence! Philip’s cards were the ace of spades, nine of hearts, seven of diamonds, four of spades, and three of spades. The foreigner's cards were the seven of hearts, king of spades, ten of hearts, seven of clubs, and two of spades. Philip had a loose hand while the foreigner had a pair! However, the foreigner folded his cards and admitted defeat, losi

As the foreigner said that, he pushed over five million dollars in chips. Philip frowned and said dubiously, “Your card is smaller than mine but you’re raising five million at once. Is it your turn to trick me this time?” The foreigner glared at Philip and said, “You don’t know if I’m tricking you, but I know for sure that you won’t dare to call.” “Are you trying to agitate me into calling?” Philip smiled faintly. “Fine, as you wish!” With that, he pushed over five million dollars in chips as well. The foreigner was stunned, but he gave a faint sneer afterward. “Very well, you’re very gutsy.” The third card was the jack of clubs for Philip and the queen of hearts for the foreigner. “Sorry, I already have a pair of queens. It seems like lady luck is not on your side this round!” The foreigner laughed and said, “Seven million dollars!” Philip smiled faintly and said, “Call.” On the fourth card, Philip got ten of spades and the foreigner got five of clubs. Philip thoug

The foreigner clenched his fists until they creaked and sneered, “I admit that I underestimated you at first, but now it seems that nine million dollars is worth paying for that lucky hand of yours. How about it? Do you dare to call?” “Call!” Philip said with certainty and without any doubt. The room went into an uproar again! Victor’s face was very ugly. Looking at the foreigner's expression, it seemed that he was determined to win. Although he did not know what card Philip had, what if he lost? Thinking about it, Victor had made up his mind. Anyway, this was his turf. If Randolph and his men really wanted to hurt Philip, even if Victor was branded as someone who did not follow the rules, he would not let them touch a hair on Philip’s head! As for the person of distinguished status behind Randolph… He could only deal with that in the future! At this time, the foreigner was grinning so broadly that he could not keep his mouth closed. He laughed while shaking his hea

The atmosphere in the room instantly exploded! Oddly enough, everyone shouted in unison, “Young Master Clarke! Young Master Clarke!” Philip laughed aloud. This was exhilarating! This was a true card game! Exciting! Following the habit of a certain movie character, Philip asked Victor, “Any chocolate?” “I’ll get it! I’ll get some!” Victor went crazy with joy! Young Master Clarke was truly amazing! He had nothing else to say! He conceded! Yolanda was surprised and happy. She covered her mouth with both hands, her face full of incredulity! Due to the big movement, Philip’s jacket slipped from her shoulders and her undergarment was exposed. Yolanda blushed and quickly pulled the clothes around her body before anyone noticed. “This… What’s going on? Pete?” Randolph stared at the foreigner with wide eyes. The foreigner named Pete was completely dumbfounded now, his brain in a complete mess. Hearing the boss calling out his name, he quickly regained his consciousne

Philip called out to Victor and the rest, saying, “Everyone, things should be settled now. Since Mr. Randolph Harrison will surely abide by the rules, he won’t make things difficult for Miss Lee anymore, right?” Philip looked at Randolph after saying that. Randolph’s face was already red with anger! He snorted angrily and said, “Of course. It's not your place to tell me what to do!” Philip nodded. “That’s good to hear. Everyone, let’s continue to have fun.” Then, he walked out with the rest. At this moment, Pete, the foreigner, suddenly rushed over and grabbed Philip's shoulder! “What are you doing?” Victor yelled. Pete's eyes were cold as he said bitterly, “It's not over yet! You can't leave. Let's play another round.” Philip asked, “Why should I? I’ve already won back all the money owed by Miss Lee. There’s no need to continue, right?” “No way!” Pete's eyes were now bloodshot like he was a wild beast in a frenzy! He was a gambling master! He had never met his

Everyone was surprised by the appearance of a talking rabbit, and it was very expressive too. Someone who did not know the situation would think that it was a human! On the way here, they heard some rumors about this rabbit having an amazing storage space. It sounded spectacular, but no one believed it. After all, even people of their status could not get a storage space. How could a mere rabbit own such a legendary treasure? Hence, everyone was surprised to see Rabbit for themselves. “Sir, is that the mysterious and powerful rabbit that was rumored outside? Why don’t we catch it and see if we can find something about it? Even if there’s nothing special about that rabbit, it’s fun to keep a talking rabbit around!” a lapdog said excitedly, clearly very curious about this talking rabbit. “You’re right. Who can refuse a talking rabbit? It’s fun to keep it as entertainment. If I use it to pick up women, I believe more women will fall in love with me!” Hogster was very excited and

Although Carlos was not that concerned about appearance, he was not fond of the idea of Vanna being together with an ugly man either. He wanted Vanna to find bliss too. Hogster was angry at Celeste’s provocation and shocked that someone would turn him down. He had to say that some secular women were ignorant and blind. In his opinion, she ignored him simply because she did not know how powerful he was. Only the women in the guild were smart enough to please him. “Carlos, since I’m here, let’s have a good chat. I plan to take Vanna away!” Hogster looked at Carlos with confidence. Although Carlos was someone he couldn't afford to offend, Hogster had his pride too. As the heir to his guild, his status was noble. Carlos sneered at his arrogance. Hogster expected to take Vanna away with just one remark. He really thought highly of himself. Carlos’ mission was to protect Vanna. He was not concerned about anything else. “Do you think just anyone can take the young heiress of Cel

Ronan frowned when someone kicked the door open. Carlos and his men woke up from their drunken stupor as well and looked around solemnly. In general, practitioners would not get drunk after drinking, but they had not used their energy to neutralize the alcohol earlier. Now that something was happening, they could not remain intoxicated. Everyone stood on guard, wondering what happened. They saw a man kicking the door open. After the man kicked the door open, he appeared in front of everyone smugly. Everyone felt disgusted to see his smug look and was surprised by his ugly appearance. Philip frowned at this person. He was sure that he did not know this guy, but seeing his smug look, he should be the ugly Hogster that everyone was talking about. Carlos had mentioned earlier that Hogster's ugly appearance was so distinct that anyone could recognize him at a glance. He had a very short figure and a ridiculous proportion, like a dwarf with no legs! Philip recognized him at a gla

“What’s wrong with you? Why are you crying?” Hogster picked up the kid angrily. Hogster was never a patient man, so he was even more annoyed by the kid’s defiance. He wanted to teach the kid a lesson for messing with him. “Stop crying. I want to ask you something. If you answer me properly, I’ll leave you alone.” Hogster smacked the kid, leaving him in a daze. The kid had never encountered such a situation before and simply sobbed. “Have you heard anything about an ugly woman? She was supposed to be the bride of the Cohen family, but the marriage was canceled at the last minute.” Hogster glared at the sobbing child in exasperation but he had to ask his questions patiently. After all, the kid looked the easiest to bully among everyone around. The child stopped crying and nodded after hearing him. “Someone took the ugly woman away. They're staying in the small house over there!” He was afraid that Hogster would hit him again, so he blurted everything he knew. The kid always hun

If the Celestial Palace could help them groom some people or lend them some experts, they might stand a chance in the competition. Seeing that time was running out, Hogster could not wait to solve the problem. Things would become difficult if he failed to marry Vanna. Hogster searched for Vanna’s whereabouts with his men. He was very anxious and wanted to find Vanna immediately. “Didn’t you say that the woman is here? Why is there no sign of her?” Hogster smacked his subordinate’s head in anger. The subordinate who got hit was shocked by his sudden attack, but at the thought of Hogster’s temper, he had no choice but to put up with it. As a pampered young heir, it was normal for Hogster to have a bad temper. His subordinates could do nothing but wallow in silence. “As far as we know, she’s nearby, but no one knows her exact location. These people don’t have a permanent residence, so finding her is more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack,” his men said nervously. T

Vanna was relieved. “That’s great. I’m surprised that my father is so sensible about this. If he dares to send someone to deal with you, I’ll make sure he doesn’t have an easy time either!” Vanna said in a huff. Vanna was angry at the thought of her father’s stubborn streak. “By the way, Hogster may cause trouble for you. I can see that your boss is very powerful. At worst, you can ask your boss to help you out. Not just anyone can take care of this.” Carlos knew how strong Ronan was, but he would be facing a guild. He did not think Ronan could win the fight. Fighting the guild would be the worst option. He hoped that Ronan could think about it carefully without being too conceited. “I think your boss is powerful enough to handle it easily. It’ll be difficult for you to deal with it single-handedly. “Hogster and his guild are very vindictive. You’ll be in trouble if he finds out that you stole his prey. Although the Celestial Palace can help you in certain areas, you'll hav

“Here, let’s eat and drink to our hearts' content. Don’t bother with formalities. Just treat this as your own home!” Ronan enthusiastically poured wine for the guards, who were flattered by his gesture. They knew that Vanna had settled down with this man. He could be considered their boss too, so no one dared to accept the wine he poured personally. Ronan laughed at their reaction and knew that his plan had worked.…. While they marveled at the wine, the guild that had previously asked for Vanna’s hand in marriage received the news. This guild was strong enough to enter into a political marriage with the Celestial Palace, but it was no better than the Celestial Palace. They just wanted to use this opportunity to join forces with the Celestial Palace to become stronger. Unexpectedly, Vanna rejected the marriage and ran away without showing up at all. “Damn it, that woman will turn 20 soon. What will happen if she doesn’t restore her appearance in time? I don't want to marry a

Carlos was so fast that he was back before Ronan knew it. Ronan was nervous when he saw Carlos standing at the door again. “We need to wait for the guild leader to decide what to do. For now, I’m here to protect Vanna. I may need to stay here for the time being. I hope you don't mind.” Carlos was very polite and did not annoy anyone. Hearing that, Philip nodded and made arrangements for the guards to stay. With two vacant rooms left, they had to squeeze a bit. The other party did not make things difficult for them, which meant there was room for negotiation, so they could relax a little. Although Ronan was very nervous, Philip thought they had a chance. “Let’s have a good meal tonight.” Ronan looked at the people squeezed into two rooms, his mouth twitching. Celeste and Darius had taken on the task of cooking, and their food was to die for. “Sure!” Carlos agreed without hesitation, hoping that Ronan would serve more of that wine because he did not have his fill at the g

As Carlos drank the wine decisively, the guild leader looked at him expectantly. If not for his dignity, he would have tasted the wine already. Carlos took a sip of wine and closed his eyes to savor it in delight. “In my opinion, I don’t think you should take the wine. Just let me take care of it for you!” Carlos could not help teasing him. Carlos and the guild leader were more like brothers, so their interaction was not that formal. The guild leader smiled helplessly, picked up the glass, and drank the wine in one gulp. “This wine…” He was suddenly at a loss for how to describe the beauty of the wine. It felt as if this wine was only fit for heaven, too good for this world. The two took one sip after another until the guild leader wanted to keep the wine away. “Sir, don't be so stingy. There’s still a little bit of wine left. Let's just finish it!” Not just anyone could take this wine. Even a strong practitioner would feel close to bursting after drinking so much. “Get
