The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 318 The York Family is About to Collapse

As time passed, Willow, who was initially not worried at all, became slightly anxious as well.

“Are you confident that you can win, honey? Can you really do it?” Willow whispered.

“You should know if I’m good at doing it, shouldn’t you, darling? Haven’t I done you enough times for you to know?” Caspian chuckled.

Willow paused for a moment upon hearing that. She took a few seconds to get the joke.

After that, her face flushed as she pinched Caspian. They were in such a dire situation already, and yet Caspian was nonchalant enough to joke with her!

“Caspian, as you’ve promised me, I want my 800 million back regardless if you win or lose this bet. I want the exact amount, not a single cent less than that,” Carl said coldly.

He did not care about Wendell’s fate. He just wanted his money back.

If the Stewart family learned that he had lost all that money, he would be in an even lower position at home.

“Mr. Lynch, it’s already half past ten now,” Charles got up and said.

“We still have five more seconds until that.” Caspian raised his hand.

Everyone was stunned by that. What could turn the situation around in five seconds? Was Caspian pretending to be calm, or did he really have something up his sleeve?

“Caspian! Don’t even think that you can kill me!” Wendell sneered.

His worries were completely gone now. There were only a few seconds left. What could Caspian do to him?

“Caspian! The next one to die should be you!” Celestia snapped vindictively.

Cole sat there, silent from the start. No one could know how things would end up until the last moment, so Cole dared not be careless.

Caspian did not entertain anyone else. He grinned, saying indifferently, “Three, two, one! They’re here!”

Right after Caspian said that, there was a loud noise outside. The door to Hoff Residence opened, and a group of people surged in.

“Bastards! Who dares enter Hoff Residence to make a scene?” Jean got up, bellowing.
