Chapter 81 Give me an explanation

"It's just a coincidence, nothing more! These raw stones are all top-quality materials!" Branden wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Anton with an unpleasant expression.

"That's right, just a coincidence. You can never be sure with raw stones like these! Mr. Ellis, this batch of goods is definitely fine!" Kacper hurriedly defended himself.

He felt a hint of doubt from Anton’ gaze earlier.

"Enough talk, Mr. Carney, you should pay up now. 1 million for a piece of worthless stone. You're truly generous,” Orion sneered.

He was on Lachlan's side now and had been holding back his anger towards the group who had been mocking Lachlan earlier.

"Yeah, hurry up and pay! Who cares about this so-called master or this crappy stone? Kacper, are you trying to scam my dad?" Betty rolled her eyes and asked.

"Nonsense! It's just a coincidence! Besides, if anyone has to pay, it'll be me to receive. What's your hurry?" Kacper blushed and turned to Branden saying, "Mr. Carney I don't want your money anymore, let's continue gambling!”

"That's right. It's just good luck. Nothing special.” Harlow added discontentedly.

Branden breathed a sigh of relief at their words, "Alright then.”

As he spoke, he selected another rough stone that looked to be of excellent quality and pointed it at Lachlan, asking, "Kid, do you dare to continue gambling?"

Lachlan shrugged. "I'll play along! But let's change the stakes a bit. If I win and you can't pay for the stone, I don't care if this guy has to cover your debt. But if I lose, you have to give me 1 million dollar. Otherwise it's no fun.”

"Exactly! If Mr. Willis loses and has to help you pay for the stone, then what's the point of losing?” Orion protested.

"Fine then. 1 million it is!" Branden nodded firmly.
