Chapter 2347
Christian knew he had already won a hundred and forty million dollars with ease. Together with the three hundred million that Edwin owed, he firmly believed that Yoana would be under his control after just one more win…Perhaps, Christian might even control Paul Mendoza himself!At this moment, Christian was extremely confident. He stopped stalling and flipped his cards on the table, smiling warmly. “A pair of kings and aces!”“Show us your hand, Lady Mendoza.”“If you don’t have a Straight Flush, you lose.”Yoana looked at her cards, snickering. She then flipped them open.“Ten, jack, queen, king, ace.”“Royal Flush. I won!”Yoana took her check back, emotionless. She had achieved the best possible hand to win the round.The extremely confident Christian’s expression changed frantically. He froze, stunned. “How is this possible?”Edwin froze at the sight.“I’ve won this round. Together with the chips on the table and your three hundred million dollars, I’ve earned a

“Of course you cheated! I have proof right here!”Christian flashed Yoana a smug look as he reached under her chest. Yoana was caught off guard, her expression awful, when he suddenly pulled out an ace of spades out of her tube top.Before she could come to her senses and shove him away, he pulled an ace of hearts.Following that was an ace of diamonds, and then, an ace of clubs…Card after card scattered to the ground as Christian pulled them out.Everyone gasped at the sight.“What?!”“She’s actually cheating on St. Hope?!”“She’s so shameless!”“No, no…! She’s playing with fire!”The crowd was shocked. They didn’t think that Yoana would actually cheat!Yoana, however, narrowed her eyes in silent anger. She never had the cards in the first place. It was Christian who pulled the cards out of nowhere.Judging from this, it was apparent that not only was Christian quite proficient in gambling, but he was also quick-witted enough to frame Yoana.After seeing Yoana’s horrible

Christian blew another huff of smoke, squinting meaningfully at Yoana.“Well, Lady Mendoza? Have you made your decision?”“If you can’t decide, why don’t I do it for you?”Yoana laughed again, just as coldly.“Is your brain giving up on you, or did you drink a little too much?”“Should everyone believe you just because you said so? Should I listen to you just because you said you want to punish me?”“You think St. Hope is your home?”“You’re bragging a little too much about your family being kings, to the point you think you’re actually the king of the family!”“You want me to accompany you for a single night? Why don’t you take a look in the mirror first?”Christian burst out laughing.“There’s something you don’t know, Lady Mendoza. I may not own St. Hope…”“But I do own thirty percent of the shares!”“My words might not mean anything in Las Vegas, but in St. Hope, I am law!”“It’d be best if you put everything down and get over here!”“If you don’t, I’ll cripple your l

“Of course my family will abide by the law! We’re doing business here, so we need everyone’s support!”“My family will continue to hold a casino badge and keep our casino-palace open.”“That’s why I should uphold justice as best as I can!”“As such, I won’t let you off the hook for cheating in my turf!”Christian slammed his hands on the table.“If I don’t take control of the situation and enforce the law now, who would dare play in my turf later on?!” he exclaimed righteously.“Cheaters aren’t allowed to take away my family’s money!”“Either do as I say, or I let my bodyguards do their thing!”“We’ll see if your little brother’s better than my bodyguards’ guns!”Christian flashed them a gleeful smile as he fiddled with two chips, as smug as ever. He seemed quite calm, but was in fact exuding a dark aura of unspeakable malice.“You’re lawless, Christian! You’re distorting the truth!”Yoana glared daggers at him, eyes burning with a cold flame.“You think you call the shots

“Who the f*ck are you?!”Christian covered his face as he struggled back up, trying to stand. At the same time, he waved his hand to stop the bodyguards from doing anything.St. Hope was Christian’s turf. Naturally, he felt that he could act all high and mighty here.But since someone dared to slap him down in his own turf, then the person was either a fool, or he was truly powerful and talented.Then again, how could a fool get through the heavy security here?Right now, Christian wanted to know who exactly slapped him in the face.“Who am I?”“I’m Harvey York.”“What’s wrong with me slapping you?”“As the second young master of the Hamilton family and the holder of a casino badge, along with the majority of shares for St. Hope, you’re being a real sore loser right now.”“You even tried to frame your own customer.”“If I don’t slap people like you down, I’ll be ashamed of myself!”Harvey was unsure what happened, but after hearing the conversation about cheating, he was ce

“Harvey…”Yoana instinctively wanted to stop Harvey, but it was already too late.Edwin, on the other hand, stayed back and crossed his arms to enjoy the show.Christian rubbed his face, and then returned to his senses.“How dare you hit me again, Harvey York?” he snarled, gnashing his teeth.“Do you have a death wish?!”“What? I can’t hit you?” Harvey was emotionless, as if he had little regard for the situation at hand.“Why don’t you try another slap in the face?”“You’re dead, brat!”“Even God can’t save you now!”“Now that I’ve said so…”Christian drew in a deep breath, his face utterly wretched.“...I’ll make your life a living hell!”Christian picked up a beer bottle.Harvey laughed, amused.“Can you really do that?”“Jax couldn’t fight back when I kept slapping him in the face. Denver couldn’t even get out of bed after I crippled him…”“Your family can’t do anything.”“Yet you think you can actually hurt me?”“Are you that stupid?”“Hah! You think the Hami
Chapter 2353
Boom!At Christian’s behest, many foreign bodyguards immediately pounced right at Harvey.“Aaaaaaah!”Just then, the women nearby started screaming. They were all born with silver spoons in their mouths, so they never experienced a situation like this.Before Harvey even did anything, Edwin had already rushed forward.He was a trained King of Arms from the Sword Camp, after all. There was no way he would stand idly by and simply watch as Harvey fell in danger.His movements were quick, as if he was an unsheathed sword glimmering dangerously in the room.In a blink of an eye, the foreign bodyguards fell to the ground. Blood poured out of them; they couldn’t even get back up if they tried.Edwin’s frightening aura seeped out of his body as he fell into his own world. He was lightning fast; his right hand was his blade, sending every single bodyguard flying with each blow.Christian’s eyes twitched as he watched on in horror. He never imagined that the young master of the Mendoza

Even though Edwin took a blow, he wasn’t scared at all. Right after the kick landed, he pounced forward and swung his palm with all his might.Bang!The attacker was immediately sent flying almost forty feet backward before smashing into the wooden floor.Harvey glanced over calmly, and saw that the attacker was a middle-aged man.The man looked like someone from Country H, but everything he wore had a hawkish American style to it.“Stand down, Falcon.”A stern voice suddenly rang from the entrance.“It’s pretty impressive to be able to withstand even a single blow against Falcon.”“He’s a retired King of Arms from America’s Army Special Forces. He’s quite powerful.”“Still, it doesn’t matter how impressive you are. You shouldn’t be hurting the Second Young Master.”“He’s a business partner of America’s Yates family, after all.”Just then, several people dressed in elegant traditional clothing strode in.They were decked in luxurious clothing from top to bottom, exuding an
