“Exactly! Who do you think you are to treat Ace like that?”
“Do you think that Ace, the King of Gamblers, is someone that you can humiliate for fun? Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror?!”
Seeing that everyone was voicing up for him, an arrogant look appeared on Ace’s face before he gave Janet a harsh glare.
“The King of Gamblers?” Janet laughed. “Look at his cards!”
Everyone’s expression—including Ace’s—turned grim when they saw the number eight on Ace’s final card. All of them stared at it in disbelief until someone gasped.
“Ace actually went bust? Holy sh*t! That girl’s luck is insane!”
“To be honest, Master Ace could have chosen not to take another card just now. Maybe his luck is just not that great after all!”
“That girl really pulled a psychological warfare on Ace! What the f*ck? Her tricks were so underhanded!”
“Tsk! How shameless could she get to pull such an underhanded move just to win against Ace?!”
In spite of those criticisms thrown at her, Janet simply grinned as everyone naturally made way for her to walk past them.
“We can finally enter the casino, right?” she asked the guard.
Meanwhile, the dumbfounded guard stood at where he was before he gave Ace a look to signal for help. “Master Ace, what—”
“Let them enter!” The ugly scar on Ace’s face made him look even more menacing at that moment.
Upon hearing what Ace said, the guards’ faces turned pale. It was the first time someone actually managed to enter the casino under Master Ace’s permission. Even Master Ace was no match to her? Who on earth is this woman?
While watching Janet and the others entering the casino, the guard went forward and said, “Master Ace, it seems like that girl is not just any ordinary person, huh?”
Since she was able to win all four rounds of dice and Blackjack, of course Ace knew that this girl was special without needing anyone else to remind him about it. In fact, the way she pulled a psychological trick on him was similar to another person’s tactics; even the aura she exuded was somewhat similar to that person’s!
Could it be that… Ace’s dark gaze narrowed as a hint of shock and viciousness flashed across his eyes. Since Jasmine had vanished from the field for a long time now, could this person possibly be… Jasmine’s disciple?!
Ace hesitated for a moment before he spoke up gruffly. “I’ll follow along to take a look!”
At the same time, Henry, who was walking in the front, asked, “Miss Janet, have you ever learned how to gamble?”
“No, but I’ve seen other people gambling.” Janet looked around casually as she walked, as if she was looking for her prey.
“You’ve seen people gambling? Who?” Henry looked suspicious.
Janet blinked before she answered him nonchalantly, “It was a long time ago, so I’ve already forgotten who it was.”
When Henry heard her explanation, he actually believed her as he nodded. Then, with a regretful expression on his face, he exclaimed, “At that moment, I really thought you were a disciple of a certain master!”
“A master’s disciple?” Janet couldn’t help but laugh. “You’re not talking about the Queen of Gamblers, Jasmine, are you?”
However, Henry nodded. “I am talking about her indeed!” Then, he started babbling about Jasmine’s glorious history back at Markovia’s casino.
In the meantime, Mason pursed his lips as a knowing look flashed across his eyes. “The Ace guy just now is probably super pissed off from what happened right now.”
“He had always been like that anyway. There hasn’t been much improvement to his gambling skills!” Janet chuckled before realizing a few seconds later that she had accidentally said something out of context, so she quickly changed the topic. “Are you sure that AQ will be here?”
Mason, who was dumbfounded when he heard Janet saying that Ace hadn’t improved much, resumed his usual calm demeanor when he heard the mention of AQ. Then, he stated curtly, “The Lowry Family’s surveillance system can’t possibly be wrong.”
Henry nodded in agreement at that. “Let me bring you guys around this place!” He was familiar with the internal structure of this underground casino. Since he had managed to make a few friends here previously, he might even be able to get an answer from them.
At the same time, a few waiters were discussing how Ace lost to a little girl in a certain game room.
“I really didn’t expect Master Ace to lose just now.”
“I didn’t expect it either. I just can’t believe that the little girl was actually that skilled.”
