Everyone froze in place as a wave of cheering spread through the crowd.

"He won! Over a hundred million! That's ridiculous!" A member of the crowd cheered.

"That was so exciting. They lost around one hundred million in just one round!" Another man said, shaking his head.

"I thought my dad was a heavy gambler, but I didn't know there were actually people betting so huge in one round!" Exclaimed another.

"It's maddening."

Amidst the clamoring, Eden smiled and nodded to Fade, "Mr. Chen, thank you for your contribution!"

As he spoke, Eden reached out for the chips on the table.

However, as his hand reached over, Fade directly slapped his hand away. "Mr. Li, please check again, who is the winner?"

Eden turned towards the dice, puzzled.

Immediately, he was dumbfounded. The three dice were all fives, adding up to fifteen, big.

"Wait, what's going on? Wasn't it small? Why is it big?" Eden was puzzled, as he raised an eyebrow at Hiller inquiringly.

Hiller was similarly stupefied. His mouth was agape, and he didn't know what to say. "This...I...I don't know either..."

"How could you not know? Aren't you Macatia's..." Eden roared angrily.

However, Pedro coughed and cut him off, "Mr. Li!"

Only then did Eden realize that he almost exposed them. However, he was still not pleased with the results.

Meanwhile, Fade looked at Eden with a faint smile and said, "Mr. Li, you bet on small. What's the matter? There are so many people watching at the scene. From the moment the cup was lifted, it was big. What are you implying, Mr. Li?"

Eden's expression sank. Of course, he would not admit it. He said indifferently, "Mr. Chen, you think too much. I was simply mistaken, that's all."

"Is that so?" Fade did not pursue the matter any further. He reached out his hand and tapped on the table as he said to Eden, "In that case, Mr. Li, a loser should honor his bets. It's time to pay up." The words triggered Eden again, and he was on the verge of breaking down. He had an extremely gloomy face at the moment.

Even though he was the richest in the Li family, he did not originate from the main branch of the family. To his name, he only had Mizzy Cosmetics, estimated to worth a little under five hundred million. Losing over a hundred million was definitely a big blow to him.

In that instant, Eden was frozen in place, reluctant to pay Fade.

Seeing this, Fade asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Li, you didn't bring enough money? In this case, I don't mind taking other assets as collateral. Of course, there'll be an interest."

"You..." Eden burst into rage. He pointed at Fade and shouted, "This doesn't count. You must have pulled something funny."

Hearing this, Fade couldn't help narrowing his eyes as his expression became serious. He stared at Eden and said, "Mr. Li, are you not willing to pay up?"

Eden's expression changed. He remained silent for a bit before saying, "I'm not trying to get out of paying. It's just that I think you have done something to the game."

He had made up his mind that he would not pay Fade a single cent.

As for Director Huang and the others, they quickly chimed in following Eden's lead.

"Yeah, you won every single game we played. How is that still a coincidence? You must have something up your sleeve."

"Cheater. You're definitely a cheater. This definitely doesn't count."

"Not just this game, but every game before that too. Return our money to us."

All of them started clamoring.

Seeing this, Fade couldn't help sneering and said, "So these are the bosses of Jade City? Don't gamble if you can't afford to lose. Now, you're being a sore loser. Do you think this is a children's game?" Eden and the others looked downcast, and their expressions were sour.

However, they were willing to sacrifice their reputation for money. The few of them gritted their teeth and continued arguing.

"We're not going back on our word. We just don't want to lose to you, a cheater!"

"That's right. We would be willing to pay up if it was a fair game, but you must be cheating! You must be punished!" "Give us back our money!"

Their shouting led other members of the audience to exert pressure on Fade

"That's true. It's inconceivable that he could win six times in a row!"

"He also won a ton of money. How can there be so much of a coincidence?"

"He must be playing dirty. I don't believe anyone can bethat lucky."

"Haha, you people like to cheat."

Faced with increasing suspicion and pressure, Nita and Lily were furious but helpless. They wanted to defend Fade but they did not know what to say. However, Fade stood up and bellowed, "Silence!"

The whole crowd went silent.

Eden looked towards Fade and felt an incredible pressure emanating from the man. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Why are you shouting? However loud you become, you can't cover up the facts."

"I'm cheating?" Fade laughed icily. He stared at Eden and the executives, saying, "Do you really think that I didn't know that you were also cheating?" "You, what are you talking about? We didn't cheat!" Eden anxiously defended.

Fade quietly grabbed the dice cup that they had been using and crushed it.

A small contraption appeared from inside the dice cup.

Fade yelled, "You're the one who requested for this dice cup right? Now, would you mind telling me, what is this?"

Eden and Director Huang were downcast and at their wit's end, but they still defended themselves stubbornly. "We, we don't know what this is either. This is something provided by the cruise ship. It has nothing to do with us."

"Are you still refusing to admit it?" Fade snorted. He gazed at Hiller and said sternly, "Then, I'll show you the truth!"

As he spoke, Fade grabbed Hiller's right arm and pinned it down on the table.

Then, a tiny knife appeared in Fade's hand and he slashed Hiller's palm with it.

"What are you doing? Let me go..." Hiller was terrified at the situation.

Eden and the others were also extremely anxious. Some of the womenfolk shut their eyes as they couldn't bear to watch any longer.

However, Fade was even quicker. With the knife, he quickly cut a hole in Hiller's palm and picked out a brown wafer the size of a pea from within it.
