Chapter 687

Upon hearing Sylvia's voice, Harold and Chaz's faces both changed.“It's just for entertainment, why bother..." Harold slowly spoke while hisgaze fell on Franklin who had a look of indifference.

"So... Mr. Gamble, are you saying that you can't afford to lose?" Sylviasmirked with her luscious red lips that were captivating. Even if hewanted to refuse her, she wouldn't allow it.

Her almond-shaped eyes scanned the group of officials who looked slyand cunning before turning her gaze towards the always composedFranklin.

He still had an arrogant expression. His strong presence was enough tomake one shudder in fear while his stern eyebrows hinted at a hint ofkilling intent.

Only when he looked at Sylvia did a flash of indulgence flash throughhis eyes as if she was a shining star among these dominant men;radiant and impossible to ignore.

Harold's eyes flashed with anger as this woman had just slapped theirfaces hard earlier by daringly using the small island as a bet nowforcing them into accepting it successfully!

If they didn't accept it, then it really meant that they couldn't afford tolose.

Sylvia walked up to the conference table with her hands picking up thedeck of cards lazily while washing them,” What? Mr. Gamble hasn'tmade up your mind yet? You guys brought out these cards yourselvesand suggested playing one game too! Now..."

Her pupils were icy cold but carried a hint of disdain within them.Franklin's deep-set eyes flickered slightly before looking at her beautifulface.

"It seems like you're very interested in playing, deputy chief.” Haroldpolitely said.

Just then, a man dressed in black hurriedly entered the conferenceroom, approaching Chaz, whispering something into his ear.

Then Chaz sent the man in black away before walking towards Haroldand saying something under his breath.

Harold raised an eyebrow, showing off a smile before turning back toSylvia, "Since you want to play so much, then I'll play one game withyou."

As he finished speaking those words, a tall figure stepped into theconference room, making its presence known immediately.

Chaz felt a sense of satisfaction. When he saw Sylvia wanting to bet onthe small island, he immediately sent someone to replace Hunter, thefamous gambling king in the Middle East.

Hunter was unbeatable when it came to gambling in the Middle East.With this man around, how could this woman win? It was impossible!Chaz felt confident that if he could pull this off, Harold would be pleasedwith him. Harold had also met Hunter before and nodded towards him.As long as Hunter was present, they were sure to win.

She was just a woman who knew how to play cards. What chance didshe have against the gambling king?

Thinking of this made Chaz laugh calmly and confidently. “DeputyChief, this is our gambling king Hunter."

Jasper and Franklin's faces changed slightly when they heard that thistall man was a gambling king.

"Deputy Chief wants us to use the small island as the stake," saidHunter without forgetting his mission at hand What is your stake? If youlose..."

Sylvia looked at Hunter up and down before bursting into laughter. "Inever lose."

She sounded extremely arrogant!

Hunter had been highly respected here; he had never lost before! Nowa woman is so arrogant in front of him?

He suppressed his disdain and anger inside him but asked calmly,"However, regardless of winning or losing, we need stakes for bothsides to play properly.”

"Alright then," said Sylvia confidently while her beautiful face exudedpowerful self-assurance after firing four shots earlier. "If I lose, you giveme back those four bullets I shot earlier.”

Everyone present froze upon hearing her word.

She just fired four shots! If all those bullets hit her...

Was she suicidal?

Franklin frowned deeply with an inexplicable panic creeping into hislow-pitched voice. "I forbid it!"

How could she do such things?

Sylvia raised an eyebrow as she glanced over at him, "It's only fourshots. What are you afraid of?"

"If she loses, MI6 will take over everything related to your new energyprojects for free," Franklin grabbed Sylvia's delicate hand tightly as hespoke with suppressed emotions.

Sylvia paused for a moment. He just used their latest researchtechnology as the stake?

“I won't allow you any harm.” The man lowered his gaze onto herexquisite face firmly while speaking these words out loud.

“I won't lose," Sylvia said, a little stunned.

"Even if there's only a one in a thousand or one in ten thousandchance, I won't allow you to take the risk," Franklin tightened his grip onher small hand. "It's just a bet after all. Nothing is more important thanyou."

Sylvia felt warmth in her heart and looked at Hunter. "How do you wantto play?"
