Bride of Retribution: Aloof Billionaire's Dominant Game

Fastening each button carefully, her movements are slow, as if she is undertaking a solemn and sacred act.

”No.” Avery Jane smiled faintly, fastening the last button of her blazer, looking at herself in the mirror; the monochrome tones made her seem as pure as an ink painting.

She secretly prayed, hoping her father would bestow upon her all the courage and inspiration.

Sometimes, it is not about what you want to do, but there seems to be an invisible force pushing everything forward, organizing events one after another, and she is caught in the middle, rising and falling, unable to escape.

This inevitably reminded her of those times alongside Joshua Hughes; with him around, no matter what happened, she was never afraid.

”Avery, don’t worry about any tough outcomes, we’re all behind you,” Charlotte Miller admired Avery Jane. All women have dual nature; no matter how delicate Avery might be, when seeking revenge, she’s steadfast and brave enough to amaze others.

”With you all by my side, I will be invincible...” Avery Jane nodded, confidently walked out.

Taking a deep breath, she entered the competition venue.

To ensure fair play, the tournament is not held in any casinos under the double powers of Las Vegas.

The hotel’s largest banquet hall has been set with fifty tables, neatly lined up, each table with a professionally dressed dealer responsible for dealing cards and witnessing the outcome.

Everyone has been assigned a number and then paired up randomly by the computer.

Avery Jane closed her eyes, quietly praying not to face Tate Hunter in the first round.

If they were to meet in the first round, then one of them would already be eliminated before reaching the finals.

If this were the case, she wouldn’t be able to make a request to Tate Hunter during the finals.

This gambling match appears as a competition on the surface, but more people are betting on outsiders; already, the outsiders are accepting bets, much like football gambling, where people bet on their preferred candidates and place huge wagers.

Before the match began, it was stipulated that those who made it to the finals must sign a life-and-death contract.

Although it’s merely a formality, few people still use their lives as stakes, but should the winner make a request that cannot be refused.

This is what makes the match thrilling; everyone is after that incredibly high prize money and the title of Gambling King.

In reality, they are merely the toys of those betting on outsiders; in this tournament, they think they’re the protagonists, but those lurking behind the world’s largest external betting companies are the real forces.

Within these three days, bets will exceed a billion US dollars, and everyone awaits the final day’s showdown.

Soon, someone angrily tore off their chest number plate and left the table in frustration.

The first day’s matches proceeded quickly, everyone filled with confidence, believing their gambling skills and luck to be the best, but upon meeting someone better, they realized their ten thousand US dollar registration fee was paid in vain, for there’s always a stronger contender.

From across distant tables, Avery Jane and Edward Parker exchanged a seemingly casual glance, both successfully advancing to the second round.

Perhaps there were too many people at first, so Avery Jane didn’t initially attract much attention; only when someone noticed did it evoke tension amongst the crowd.

The funeral of Tiger Geogre in Las Vegas is still a topic of gossip to this day.

Because on that day, Avery Jane did things many men dared not do, showing no deference to Big Head Geogre, even though she was Joshua Hughes’ wife, considering it was Las Vegas.

Now, all attention is focused on three people: Tate Hunter, Edward Parker, and Avery Jane.

The hot betting favorite now is naturally Tate Hunter, though some still wager on Edward Parker, and suddenly, a woman emerged with a special identity; why is she here?

It would be the biggest joke of the year to say Avery Jane lacked money?

If Avery Jane were short of money, then who isn’t?

Does she seek fame? What fame could be more enticing than being Joshua Hughes’ wife?

Why did she enter this competition? For fun?

Gradually, as the crowd thinned, Avery Jane shone like a pearl emerging from sand, slowly radiating mesmerizing brilliance.

Avery Jane secretly celebrated her excellent placements; on the first day, she and Tate Hunter weren’t in the same round.

Things were unfolding as she planned, hoping to meet Big Head Geogre’s son in the finals, and then personally seek revenge for her parents.

”Avery Jane becomes someone unrecognizable at the gambling table.” Charlotte Miller and Atlas Hallow sat in the audience with a great view; Charlotte watched as Avery Jane overcame one obstacle after another, seemingly even more nervous than Avery.

Holding Atlas Hallow’s small hand, tightening it even more...

She knows she will soon witness Avery Jane confronting her foe, praying that Avery fulfills her desire for vengeance; if this grievance cannot be avenged, then it would be truly unfair.
