Subconsciously, Alicia moved towards Frederick and hid behind him. She looked at him with a worried look.

He turned around slowly with one of his hands in his pocket. He glanced at the table top and without much emotion and said, "This is the first time I'm hearing such a rule in the casino."

"That's because I suspect that you are cheating! I'm the host today!" This meant that his words were final.

They looked at each other fiercely. The man responded, "Accept the inspection and gamble with me for another round! Or else, don't even think of leaving here!"

Frederick gave a subtle chuckle.

He said, "If you were to invite me for a round of gamble, perhaps I would be more willing to do so. However, now..."

Indirectly, it meant that the man's attitude was really rude and that he was really furious!

The both of them conversed in French, and at that moment, it felt like blades clashing against one another.

The man had bronze, tanned skin. Based on his dressing style, he looked like he was from the Middle-East. Beside him were two ladies, one being a westerner while the other being an Asian. They were both sexy and gorgeous. The bodyguards were obviously armed, and this made Alicia anxious.

This kind of occasion was indeed not child's play! What was the point of going against them head to head in this situation! Of course, they should opt for resolving it with money!

For a moment, Alicia regretted it. She regretted asking for a house. Who knew that he was actually really good at gambling, and has now made others jealous!

"It's either you leave her here, or accept the inspection and gamble with me!" The man was very aggressive and pointed at Alicia directly.

With her eyes widened, she showed a frightened expression. Her mind went blank and kept wondering, "What did he mean?"

Unconsciously, she tugged on the corner of Frederick's tuxedo and looked at him.

He sighed and spoke up indifferently.

"There's not much to lose if I gamble! I have won enough and I'm not lacking in it either! Be fair if you want to gamble! Check thoroughly and the bet should be the same as well! If you don't have the skills, don' blame it on others! How despicable!"

The man heard him and felt somewhat pleased. He raised his hand.

He said, "Okay! Our bet is her! If I win, you will give her to me! If I lose, I will give you whatever amount of money you want! You can even take away all of these! Two wins for three rounds, and everyone here will be our witness! Start the inspection and you will bet for a person and I will do the same!

Seeing that the man pointed at her again, the color on Alicia's face became pale, and she was very confused.
