Elbert's arrogance made Bernard stop in his tracks.
He slowly turned around, his eyes seemingly filled with an entire galaxy, glinting with a merciless, cold light like a hardened sword.
Clearly, Bernard’s killer instincts were flaring up, but Elbert still marched up to him, completely fearless.
"If you win, my girl can keep you company for the night; how about that?"
Elbert, hands in his pockets, arrogantly taunted Bernard.
The woman following Elbert sneakily eyed Bernard.
His silver-gray hair was casually swept back. Although the color didn't match his regal demeanor, his strikingly handsome face was still a sight to behold. His appearance and physique were top-notch, enough to make hearts race. The masculine pheromones he gave off were like a beast lurking in the deep sea—potent and invasive, enough to make one flush at a single glance.
Elbert's girl thought that spending a night in the arms of such a man would be an unforgettable experience.
She gently lifted a finger, twirling her long hair around it, striking a seductive pose, and constantly throwing flirty glances at Bernard.
But Bernard paid no heed to her advances; his icy, fierce eyes were like sharp blades, fixed on Elbert.
"How do you want to die?"
Elbert's wager, win or lose, was nothing more than a sick joke. If he had the guts to provoke him, he was basically asking for death!
"Mr. Laurence, lighten up a bit."
Elbert said this with a smirk on his face full of audacity and arrogance.
"I just asked you for a game of chance; I didn't ask you to do anything else. Why so tense?"
Bernard snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain.
"Why should I gamble with you?"
Elbert looked up, his eyes filled with arrogance and defiance. He looked past Bernard to Eleanor at his side.
"Because I once saved her."
