Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 704

Guests had already started to trickle in when the manager tossed the headset to Sophie, signaling her to put it on.

Sophie had no choice but to figure out how to wear the headset first.

She had never been to such an event, let alone gambled.

Judging from the gambling table, it seemed Odie had at least been considerate enough to choose the simplest game for her: Chuck-a-luck. She was just responsible for rolling the dice.

As Sophie was quietly figuring out how to play, guests who had been drinking outside started to come in. A greasy middle-aged man in his forties stared at her with a straight gaze, incessantly asking, "Did Sandra get prettier today? Such a slim waist!"

The manager, standing by with an apologetic smile, said, "Sandra isn't here today. This is our new dealer."

"New dealer? I like her!"

The man reached out to grab Sophie's hand, and she frowned slightly, instinctively pulling her hand back.

The manager shot Sophie a glare, and she then put on a seductive smile. "It seems this gentleman prefers Sandra. How about I have Sandra replace me?"

Sophie's voice was three parts enticing, seven parts soft, melting the man's resolve. "Sandra's got nothing on you! I like you just like this!"

Sophie felt like throwing up but couldn't show it on her face.

"So, gentleman, are you betting on high or low this round?"

"Low! I want low!"

The man clearly enjoyed being called 'gentleman.'

Just then, Odie's voice came through the headset, "First round, I'm going for high."

Sophie raised an eyebrow as she lifted the cover, only to see that it was low, not high.

Odie stopped in his tracks when the man had lost all his principal, and he frowned.

"What shall we do? I still want to play with you." Sophie blinked her eyes, looking utterly innocent.

The man clenched his teeth, "Half a million is nothing! Wait for me! I’m coming right over!"

The man turned to exchange more chips. Sophie breathed a sigh of relief. Turning around, she saw Odie opening the door to the room. Before Sophie could react, Odie had grabbed her and was pulling her upstairs.

"Mr. Odie, please be gentle!"

Sophie frowned, her wrist nearly crushed by Odie's grip!

Once they reached the second-floor office, Odie finally let go of Sophie's hand, his voice cold. "Why didn't you follow the instructions?"
