Chapter 315 Confrontation with the God of Gambling
At his words, Charles felt a shiver down his spine.
Caspian’s behavior was becoming increasingly unpredictable.
Moreover, there was an air of dominance about him, as if nothing mattered in his eyes.
Originally, Charles intended to figure out Caspian’s background tonight.
However, as the evening progressed, Caspian appeared more inscrutable. Trying to decipher him in a short time was difficult.
Caspian’s profound gaze was intimidating, and there was no room for error when it came to dealing with him.
“Oh? Mr. Lynch, you want to gamble with me? Although I don’t gamble, a little fun is fine. Mr. Lynch, what do you want to play? Poker?” Charles cautiously asked.
“I’m not interested in these traditional games. They’re too boring. I can’t say now how we’ll gamble, but I can let you know what the stakes are.” Caspian shook his head with a smile.
Poker had no appeal for Caspian. Deception was rife in a game like that. As the Diatoran War of God, if he gambled, it would be on a grand scale!
“Oh? Mr. Lynch, do enlighten me.”
Charles‘ eyes brightened as it had been a long time since he encountered someone as arrogant as Caspian.
Even though he didn’t gamble, it didn’t mean he lacked skill.
Charles managed to establish himself in New Bay and became a tycoon through his gambling expertise. However, now that he was older, he preferred not to personally engage at the tables.
He’d rather set up his own establishments and use some tricks to make money.
“It’s nothing much. If I lose, Azuria Casino will be yours. But if you lose, you need to give my father–in–law 800 million dollars! How about that?” Caspian said calmly.
Carl was stunned to hear this. He hadn’t expected Caspian to challenge the God of Gambling.
The
guy was renowned as the God of Gambling. It seemed nearly impossible to win money
from him!
Charles‘ expression hardened. 800 million dollars was a trifle for him, akin to his son’s pocket money.
However, Caspian’s wager was high as he put Azuria Casino as stake. This matter should be
If he did indeed fulfill the bet, he would undoubtedly be a big shot–one with a background beyond anyone’s imagination.
“Mr. Hoff Senior, are you interested in what I proposed? Do you dare gamble with me?” Caspian fixed his gaze on Charles as he asked with a faint smile.
Charles‘ heart stirred.
Azuria Casino was one of the largest casinos in all of New Bay. Yet, due to the York family’s presence, Charles couldn’t act recklessly. If he could win back the casino from Caspian, it would be fantastic news for the Hoff family.
From then on, no one would dare to challenge him anymore.
“Since you’re so enthusiastic, Mr. Lynch, I can’t refuse. However, Azuria Casino has been sealed by the Inspector General’s office. Can your words be trusted?” Charles asked.
Azuria Casino had been sealed, and without Alton’s command, nob*dy dared to touch it.
Even Charles couldn’t openly challenge him since he was the governor of New Bay.
Seeing Caspian’s confident demeanor, Charles was curious. How could he have control over
Azuria Casino?
“Don’t doubt me, Mr. Hoff Senior. I’m a man of my word.” Caspian smiled.
Since Caspian was so assured, Charles didn’t press further.
“Caspian! Have you gone mad? How dare you challenge the God of Gambling! What happens if you lose!” Carl stared at Caspian and exclaimed.
Carl initially thought he could take 800 million from Willow, but he hadn’t expected Caspian to have such a trick up his sleeve.
Winning against the God of Gambling was incredibly challenging.
“Dad, just trust me. Regardless, the 800 million will eventually be yours,” Caspian casually replied.
“It better be. Willow will testify for me,” Carl said.
He suddenly felt that Caspian wasn’t the same as previous. His presence and everything about him had changed.
“Hubby, isn’t this too risky?” Willow whispered while holding onto Caspian’s arm. “They say the God of Gambling’s skills are unparalleled in New Bay. No one can beat him because there’s no worthy opponent, which is why he never gambles.”
“Willow, trust me. I’m confident.” Caspian patted her hand lightly.

Seeing his calm demeanor, Willow stopped persuading him. She knew he must have his own plan.
“Mr. Lynch, how do you plan to gamble?” Charles asked with curiosity.
“Mr. Hoff Senior, hold your horses. Not everyone has arrived yet,” Caspian said meaningfully.
Seeing his appearance, Charles suddenly felt anxious.
At that moment, a helper hurried in.
sir, the head of the”
family, Wendell York, wishes to see you.”
In the next moment, Charles turned to look at Caspian.
Thinking of Caspian’s confident appearance just now, he felt a tremor in his heart.
How did Caspian guess that he would invite Wendell?
Was Caspian a wizard? Could he see into the future?
“Mr. Hoff Senior, he’s here. Let him in so that we can begin the gambling session,” Caspian said with a smile.
Charles breathed a sigh of relief, trying to compose himself.
He spoke sternly, “Bring Wendell in.”
“Understood, Mr. Hoff Senior!”
The helper nodded and hurried out.
Afterward, Charles‘ fiery gaze locked onto Caspian. “Mr. Lynch, how did you know Wendell would come?”
“Mr. Hoff Senior, you and I don’t have any dealings, but you sent me an invitation to the banquet. You wanted to use this chance to probe into my background, to understand my identity and purpose in coming to New Bay.” Caspian chuckled.
“Wendell shares a deep relationship with you. As for us, we’re enemies. To quickly understand me, inviting this person over would be the best move. Am I right, Mr. Hoff Senior?”
Charles‘ face turned ashen. After hearing Caspian’s words, he burst into laughter. “Mr. Lynch, I didn’t expect you to be so capable. I underestimated you before. However, I have a question. Why would someone as talented as you willingly become the Stewart family’s son–in–law?” While saying this, Charles glanced at Carl.
