The lady concealed behind a silver mask was shaking a dice cup in her delicate hand.
With a resounding flourish, the dice cup descended upon the table’s surface!
“How much are you willing to wager this time?” inquired the veiled lady.
“I shall double the stakes.”
A throng of onlookers encircled the gaming table, raucously exhorting the participants.
Amidst the fevered cacophony of gambling, the man seated opposite the masked woman resolutely set down his dice cup.
“I don’t believe you’ll always emerge victorious!”
The man affectionately caressed the woman at his side before confidently resting his hand on his dice cup and tauntingly suggested, “If I win this time, will you unveil your mask?”
The masked woman, her countenance tranquil beneath the veil, smiled enigmatically at her adversary.
“Very well, but what if you lose?”
In a bold and decisive move, the man shoved all his remaining chips to the center of the table!
“Let’s go all in, two million! Let the wager commence! I find it hard to believe that Luck shall favor you in this game!”
“Very well, I accept your wager.”

With a flourish, the man forcefully unveiled the contents of his dice cup.
A pair of fives and a six were revealed and a triumphant chuckle danced on the man’s lips as he cast an impertinent gaze at the veiled woman.
“It appears that your mask must come off, my dear.”
Exuding confidence, the woman elegantly dispersed her chips and made her own dice cup known.
“Three sixes. My apologies, but this round is mine.”
In a fit of rage, the man’s expletives erupted.
“You devious woman!
Bitch!”
Furiously, he slammed his palm against the table and rose to his feet.
“You’re cheating, aren’t you?”
The woman, unfazed by his outburst, simply chuckled and retorted, “If you cannot afford to lose, you are free to depart. It’s only two million, after all. Is it beyond your means?”
