A Moment in Destiny

Alexis said, “Will, let’s make it one hundred million yuan. We will part ways after it ends!

“It seems that you are not hungry enough this time!” William lifted the corner of her lips into a faint smile.

“I don’t have much time. Make it half an hour!” Alexis curled up his lips and added, “The old rules, we will split it!”

“OK!” William smiled in response.

The two of them walked over and although there were both easterners, they had bodies that were unlike westerners who were usually bulky. They were instead slender and lean. They were wearing black suits and sporting black hair. It was a sight to behold, the way they were bantering with each other.

“Who is that?” Someone asked, but there was no one answering him.

Both of them looked very arrogant and obstinate, and after exchanging a final glance, they disappeared into their respective suites.

The suite was just a few hundred square meters, but the floor was carpeted with a luxurious carpet. It looked so majestic that it was even dizzying. Waiter and waitresses were all on standby around the suite, ready to be ordered around. There was a row of champagne and wine lining the shelf on one side.

The long table prepared for gambling was few meters long, yet only two men were seated on opposite sides. They were facing each other.

William was seated at one end of the table and he was nonchalantly lighting up a cigarette. His gaze casually swept over the other man opposite him.

Seated opposite him was a white man in his thirties. He was dangling a cigarette too from his fingers, and his blue eyes were fixated on William. After puffing out a smoke, he showed the card in his hands and laughed maniacally, “A pair of Kings!”

He was very confident of his own chances at victory because he had a pair of Kings in his hands. One was black and the other was red.

If William were to win, he would have to hold a pair of Aces, one black and one red. The white man couldn’t convince himself that William had that stroke of luck.

In fact, gambling needed a great deal of luck and experience for someone to succeed, putting aside the chances of someone cheating.

William lightly flipped the card in his hands and discarded it on the table. He wasn’t even taking a look at his cards. Instead, he was examining the expression on that white man’s face. What he saw was a face getting paler and paler.

“Mr. Rowland is the winner of this round!” The waiter announced and pushed all the chips to William’s side on the table.

The white man had a defiant look on his face. William was simply unbelievably lucky!

He narrowed his eyes and focused his sharp gaze onto William opposite him. He mused, “Mr. Rowland, you have a great stroke of luck. I’m impressed!”

William produced a faint smile on his lips while looking into the white man’s eyes with the same sharpness. He asked in English, “One more round?”

“Let’s do it!” The white man was getting carried away now. All he wanted now was to win back what he had lost earlier.

William smiled faintly, “I advise you not to continue our gambling for now…”

Then, he paused slightly and then added, “Because you will never win against me!”

He was so arrogant and proud that all the other onlookers were stunned momentarily. The white man let out a cold laugh, “Mr. Rowland, you are speaking such big words. Whether you win or not, it’s not up to you!”

He didn’t want to believe that William would be lucky to the end!

William twisted his brows upwards and scanned his surroundings. He suddenly announced, “However, I no longer have any interest in this gamble!”
