“I have no other desire but wealth. Should you lose, you will forfeit to me every share of the Phillips Group.”
Henry, unimpressed, retorted with a scoff, “We shall see if you can actually claim them.”
Meanwhile, Caleb, observing the wager from an upstairs monitor, felt beads of sweat form on his brow.
The aura of his boss was so intimidating that speaking out of turn was unthinkable. Those who had once crossed his boss were likely no longer breathing.
“Boss… they…”

“Understood, boss.”
In the midst of their exchange, the dealer returned to Hannah’s side, presenting her a stack of 5@ million in chips and handing back her card.
“Miss, your chips and card are ready.”
Hannah tilted her chin towards the pile of chips on the table.
“Shall we begin?” she inquired.
As Henry’s gaze fell upon the 50 million chips sprawled before him, a glint of greed flared in his eyes.
This was a staggering 50 million. Victory in this game meant reclaiming all his past losses!
Impatient, Henry blurted out, “Let’s get on with it! Cut the chatter!”

The dealer, presiding over the game, commanded, “Cast the dice, please!”
Simultaneously, Hannah and Henry rattled their dice cups.
With a definitive thud, Hannah set her cup on the table and challenged, “Care to reveal yours first?”
Henry lifted his cup to reveal five dice of sixes and one dice of four.
ALL eyes stretched to glimpse Hannah’s roll.
Without a pause, she uncovered her dice, revealing one six, a trio of twos, and a pair of fours.
Cheers erupted from Henry’s men.
“You won! Mr. Phillips is unmatched!
Amazing!”
The crowd buzzed with excitement. Had she just squandered 5@ million in one go?
