The masked man snapped back. "What?"

Phoebe said, "There are over two hundred world-class casinos. About ten are as big as yours. You must compete with them, right?"

The masked man raised an eyebrow, sensing where she was going. "So?"

"So, I visited a few today. They're jealous of your earnings and want to take you down. You can't be so arrogant," Phoebe replied.

The masked man's face darkened. "Phoebe, you're smart, but if you think you can drive a wedge between us, you're underestimating me."

"Alright, Starfall City never lacks clients. Everyone wants to make more money, especially if they find dirt on you. Think they'd want you out of the industry?" Phoebe smiled.
