In the Lap of Luxury by Unsweetened Chestnuts

Chapter S1 Showdown Between Tricksters

The onlookers were shocked.

Richard was a legend in the gambling world of Pamore. He had kept a low profile for the past few years, but he was an absolute threat compared to half–assed Charles.

However, forcing a young person like this was inappropriate for an old man of his standing.

Grace shrugged carelessly. “What if you lose?”

Richard was clearly here to antagonize her.

Hmph!

Was he joking? Admit that she was the third party in that relationship?

He was crazy.

“I will not lose!” Richard declared loudly. “Just tell me whether or not you agree to this bet!”

He was being an unreasonable bully using his power and authority, but no one dared speak up.

“If you lose, then make Yvonne kneel down in front of me to admit her wrongdoings, and make her slap herself in the face for getting involved in my marriage!”

Grace’s gaze fell on the diamond ring that Richard wore on his thumb. “And … I want you to give me that diamond ring of yours as an apology!”
