Chapter 26

from a few thousand to twenty thousand per ticket due to the increasing demand. Even executives like

wanting to find out what drove Charmine to place such a grand and risky bet against Julian.

got out of the car, but as she was about to shut the door, she added, “Right, help me to pass on to
