Chapter 558 The Big Gamble (Part One)
It''s when people are in the most dangerous and urgent situations that they expose everything hidden
deep inside their hearts.
Since Brian didn''t mind the arrogance and contempt disyed by the man with a square face, he
remained impassive.
After Brian snapped his fingers, a waiter quickly appeared before him. He drew out a check, wrote a
long list of numbers and handed it to the waiter. Shortly after, the waiter was back with a huge stack of
white, transparent rectangr chips, each marked with a million dors. Anyone ncing at it could
compute and guess the chips were worth more or less 100 million dors.
The man with a square face soon realized that Brian was a big yer. Laughing, he said, "My friend,
since you want to y, of course, you are wee to join us."
While Brian did not hide his ambition to join the high-stakes game, everyone present paid little attention
to him, who was dressed casually in the beginning. But when those gathered around the table saw him
lay down chips worth a hundred million dors, they suddenly began to show their interest in him.
Brian''s huge wealth had never been a secret to Molly. But because she had a deep-seated loathing for
gambling, Molly questioned Brian''s sudden decision to participate in the high-stakes game. However,
she did not express her opposition. Because while she might not agree with his actions, Molly knew
she would still end up supporting him when he started to y.
Seeing the distress in Molly''s face, Brianughed secretly. He looked at the steel ball spinning quickly
in the Wheel and asked her, "Which numbers do you want to bet on?"
"You''re asking me for numbers?" she asked incredulously. When Brian nodded, Molly frowned, looked
at the wheel, heard the dealer asking yers to ce their bets and took a deep breath. "Then 8, 11,
19…" Molly answered quickly.
He nced to see if Molly would change her mind, then tossed two chips for each of the three numbers
she gave. Brian paid no attention to the spinning roulette, as it slowed down. But his eyes never
wavered from the numbers Molly selected. Recognizing the numbers, Brian didn''t know whether to feel
happy or sad. The three numbers respectively represented the month Mark was born, the month he
and Molly met, and the day she left! Did she choose the numbers deliberately, Brian wondered.
He couldn''t tell if the numbers were significant to her that''s why she said them out loud without any
hesitation, or if they were numbers she was trying to avoid? If it was thetter, it might exin why they
were at the top of her mind.
The roulette finally came to a stop. "4, 19, 32!"
Of the numbers Molly picked, only 19 came out. Brian stared at it with disgust since this was the day
Molly left.
Seeing that Brian lost 20 million dors within seconds, Molly frowned. As the second round was about
to start, she hastily told him, "Please, don''t ask me for numbers again."
Her plea and nervous expression had Brian raising his eyebrows. He grabbed Molly''s hand tightly, then
stared at the steel ball bouncing around the wheel, his eyes gradually growing darker. Brian provided
the three numbers he bet on but had no luck this time.
For the third y, Brian won one and lost two.

For the fourth y, he won two and lost one.
For the fifth y, he again won two and lost one.
For the sixth y, none of his numbers came out.
But he won it all during the seventh y.
He was on a lucky streak in the eighth y.
In the ninth y… After winning four consecutive times, Brian was now the controlling yer. Were he
not the dominant yer in this round, he stood a better chance of winning five times in a row.
Unfortunately, it was Brian''s turn to be the controlling yer. But because of the abilities of other
yers on the table, it was difficult for Brian to get them to pick the wrong numbers.
He noticed that Molly was extremely nervous, so heforted her by slightly patting her hand. At that
moment, the dealer handed him the three steel balls. Casually ncing at the man seated at the end of
the table, some thoughts ran in his mind. Five more ys remained, including this man''s y. Brian or
his opponent across the table had to correctly pick the numbers in this round for there to be a one-on-
one match between the two dominant yers. Sneering secretly, Brian got the three steel balls, rolled
them in his slender fingers and tossed them into the wheel. The repeated nking sounds indicated
they had fallen in precisely. The momentum had the wheel spinning, slowly then rapidly.
"ce your bets, please," the dealer announced. As the wheel spun, everyone watched in anticipation.
The yers ced their bets and stared at the spinning wheel. Right before the dealer ended the call
to ce bets, the man at the end of the table gave the numbers 6, 27, 00.
The sound of balls bouncing in the spinning wheel faded as the roulette came to a stop. All eyes were
on the balls as theynded on the numbers 6, 27 and 00. There was a collective gasp from spectators
and then everyone was talking all at once. For this y, it was clear that the only winner was the man
at the end of the table!
As the crowd looked sadly at Brian''s misfortune, a smile shed in Brian''s eyes. The man at the end of
the table slowly turned around and took a close look at his losing opponent for the first time since the
y began.
Little did Molly realize that Brian had sessful provoked the man and the battle between Brian and
the man had started. Instead, she pursed her lips in disappointment like most in the crowd, who
believed that if the man had guessed wrong, Brian would have won five times in a row. While Molly had
no idea why Brian had toe to this casino to gamble, she was not that stupid to think he chose to
gamble at this ce just for fun.
With these thoughts running in her mind, Molly looked at Brian and saw he wasn''t at all bothered about
the surprising result. He happened to nce at Molly at the same time and saw her facial expression.
With the corner of his lips raised to a smirk, he asked, "Molly, are you worried about me?"
