“Of course you cheated! I have proof right here!”


    Christian shed Yoana a smug look as he reached under her chest. Yoana was caught off guard, her


    expression awful, when he suddenly pulled out an ace of spades out of her tube top.


    Before she coulde to her senses and shove him away, he pulled an ace of hearts.


    Following that was an ace of diamonds, and then, an ace of clubs…


    Card after card scattered to the ground as Christian pulled them out.


    Everyone gasped at the sight.


    “What?!”


    “She’s actually cheating on St. Hope?!”


    “She’s so shameless!”

    “No, no..! She’s ying with fire!”


    The crowd was shocked. They didn’t think that Yoana would actually cheat!


    Yoana, however, narrowed her eyes in silent anger. She never had the cards in the first ce. It was


    Christian who pulled the cards out of nowhere.


    Judging from this, it was apparent that not only was Christian quite proficient in gambling, but he was


    also quick-witted enough to frame Yoana.

    After seeing Yoana’s horrible look on her face, Christian pped joyfully.


    “Now what, Lady Mendoza? With the evidence, aren’t you supposed to give me the money back and


    stay here?”


    Yoanaughed, though the sound was devoid of any humor.


    “Are you braindead, Christian?”


    “You think you can just nder me with your gambling skills?!”


    “Did you forget what I do for a living?!”

    “Show the footage if you’re saying that I cheated! We’ll watch the entire thing in full!”


    “If there’s proof in the footage, then ording to the rules here, I’ll chop my hand!”


    “If there’s no proof, that means you’re ndering me! After you gouge your eyes out, I want your hands


    chopped as well!”


    “Do you dare?!”


    Yoana then shot a re at the staff not far away from her.


    “As the Las Vegas Police Station’s second-inmand, I order you to show us the surveince footage!”

    The staff was about to move as told, but Christian pped again. The smile on his face was still there,


    and he looked unperturbed. n


    “I think you’re the one who’s braindead, Lady Mendoza.”


    “The second-inmand of Las Vegas Police Station should know that we’re in open seas right now!”


    “Your pathetic authority has no use here!”


    “I am thew here!”


    “If I said that you cheated, then you cheated! I am proof, and this is the evidence!”


    “In any case, you have only two choices tonight!”


    “Number one, leave the chips and your check, then break both your arms as punishment!”


    “Number two, I’ll pay off Edwin’s debt for you, but you have to apany me for one night.”


    “I’ll record the entire thing tomemorate our hard-won love, though!”


    “How does that sound?”


    Christian lit up his cigar, and then blew out a huff of smoke in Yoana’s face.


    “The choice is yours.”


    His n was simple. He nned to lure Yoana here with Edwin’s IOU from years ago so he could take


    control of her.


    If he seeded, Las Vegas’s first-inmand would’ve turned into a puppet for the Hamilton family.

    At the same time, he would avenge Dennis.


    With all that at stake, why would Christian let Yoana turn the tables?


    He would take his money back, and he would also take advantage of the situation in order to control


    Yoana along with the entire Mendoza family.
