"Do you play at this place often?" A man who played with him looked with an interested gaze at him.Richard put down his bag again. "This is the first time I came to play at this place." He answered honestly.The man pursed his lips tightly, still with his gaze fixed on Richard. "Is that so? But your game is great. You've been winning ever since." He was impressed by how beautifully Richard played.Richard pulled the corner of his lips in a smile. "I just did what everyone else did."He did the basic things of the game, followed the game's rules, and thought through his strategy well. Winning was not the goal, as he chose to play just to try it out. He wasn't interested in winning or losing, but when he did win, he was entertained.The man raised the corner of his chin and was silent for a while. "Is that so?" His eyebrows moved up somewhat confusedly, but he resumed his game.Meanwhile, the people who staffed the guards around the place observed what Richard was doing. They had alrea
The two people lying on the floor stared at Richard fiercely, their bodies still lying on the floor, moving with difficulty.One of them tried to get back up. "You'd better be cooperative, or we'll take more action than this." He threatened Richard.Richard ignored the man's words, instead, he turned his gaze and looked towards the corners of the place, looking for the locations of the CCTV.He thought he might as well inspect other things he needed to check there while dealing with them. So Richard stepped forward to open another door, but his hand was caught from behind.It was pulled forcefully and made him turn his head back to them. Richard found one of the guards holding his hand while the other just caught up with them.His eyes continued to watch with an unreadable gaze. Then, he moved sluggishly back to the person who had kept him there.Richard then pushed the man's hand away hard, making the man's hand move with him, and finally let go of his hand unintentionally."If you c
The two officers who put Richard in that situation looked at each other in panic. They had not expected that Richard would be the one to be influenced in that place. What they were trying to do was to secure him. Because sometime before, troublemakers tried to do tricks in that place but failed. Even so, the existence of such a person still makes them a security problem. Because if something happens and there is a report that first gets sanctioned, it is their side. So, the head of security at the place was strictly warned about the chaos that might occur, especially when there would be a big party.Brian, the manager of the place, sighed heavily and bowed his head again. "I am truly sorry, sir. It was also my negligence not to know what was going on." He bowed deeply and sounded guilty. "I will ensure they both take responsibility for what they did, sir." She had been so busy with things to welcome and enliven the party tonight that she had forgotten to warn them about the possibili
Richard, who left the restroom corridor, continued to avoid the crowd. He had a certain limit to which he could endure the interaction with other people in crowded places, and right now, he had reached his limit. So he moved away from them and towards where they were least likely to be, the veranda.Little did he know that a woman had been watching his movements and was following him to the veranda. Richard took a deep breath, enjoying the scenery before his eyes. Although the day had turned into night, the place could still clearly show its charm."Isn't this place beautiful?" The woman walked up to Richard with a glass of wine.She brought herself closer to the veranda divider and leaned one of her arms on it. Her eyes momentarily looked at the whole place with an admiring gaze while Richard just silently watched her from her place.Richard didn't know who she was and didn't answer her question until she turned to him and smiled. "Do you like being in this place compared to being th
"Shouldn't I know who's involved in this so I can cooperate properly if I want to join you guys?" He was trying his best to find out more about it.Even for Richard, who was not too interested in gambling in casinos. He also had a handful of knowledge about a certain group that worked together to reap profits in the casino, where they played with the underhanded tricks they did.All the tricks they have are cunning tricks that not all of them can be proven because their skill in manipulating results and hiding evidence of their cheating is fairly top tier. That reason also made the security officers who faced Richard wary of him.As he had heard from Brian, there had been a lot of cheating in that place lately, and they were trying to catch him immediately. Richard was sure maybe what Brian was looking for was the group that Lidya was talking about.Lidya's gaze looked more alert. "Even if you join, you still won't get full information about who is involved in this group." The corners
"The way he talks is annoying." Lidya twisted her body, took a deep breath, and tried calming herself down.Seeing the dark night visible in her eyes helped her calm down. As she had expected, Diomond Cas was the best place for her. Because when she was tired, it was easy for her to calm down and restore her spirit by looking at the vast expanse of nature.She became even more motivated because it was her dream place. Lidya wanted to get rich quickly and have a lot of money to have her place, with the view that Diamond Cas had as the view in her house.But I don't know how long it would take her to realize her dream. He then sighed heavily. "His attitude is trashy, but he has great ability." She admitted that it made her regret the rejection Richard gave her. "Well, let's just say he's attractive and keep an eye on him for now."She was sure Richard lied to her about him not playing much when he seemed to enjoy his game and was on a winning streak. It was truly amazing to her. Lidya h
"Make sure your movements don't catch the attention of others. Move carefully and keep them quiet when you pull her from the place later." Richard was looking at the center of the place, waiting for the time to welcome the party to arrive. "Yes, sir, move as directed. I'll pass it on to everyone." Brian copied Richard's words and instructed his subordinates as Richard had said. From what Richard could tell from the program that Smith had told him, the welcome party would start around seven o'clock, and it was only a few seconds away. At that time, Richard was sure that people's attention would be drawn to James, who would enter and start greeting them. At the far end, Richard began to see the crowd. He recognized one of them as his father's servant. Within seconds, he saw James enter from the main door. "Have them stand behind those people and wait until I say move." "Yes, sir, carry it out." Brian passed the order to his subordinates, who immediately took positions behind the five
"Find their data on the playing guest list, find out how long they have been guests at this place, and how much they have lost in this day." He ordered the brand to bring him what he needed to judge the five people. He knew there would always be those trying to make a profit in every place, those who did not even deserve to benefit from them, and how dare they do such a thing with him. They were playing in the wrong place with a lot of courage. Richard deeply regretted that. If only that much courage of theirs were used for better things, they wouldn't have become such useless bastards. They put in so much effort only to become trash. "I'll be right back, sir." One of the men who was with Richard earlier then left. He left the room and went to see Brian in person to report what had happened. The door to Brian's room was knocked on three times, then opened, and he went inside. The man stopped a few steps away from Brian, who had already turned his head towards the door as soon
