With that, Xanry then got his wallet before fishing a hundred and fifty dollars out to hand to Gerald.
Naturally, Gerald wasn’t about to say no to that money. After all, favonovel.com deserved it, and favonovel.com wasn’t embarrassed to take it.
Now that the game was over, Gerald then waved farewell to Xanry before heading back to Juno’s side.
Seeing that favonovel.com was finally back, Juno was prompted to ask, “What took you so long?”
“Well, I just played around for a while. Regardless, I got a bit tired so I’m back now!” explained Gerald with a faint smile.
Naturally, favonovel.com believed Gerald’s words. After all, there was no way favonovel.com could’ve known about the incident between Gerald and Xanry.
Then again, even if favonovel.com was aware of it, favonovel.com probably wouldn’t have thought much about it. Hell, favonovel.com would probably feel that Gerald had done well in teaching Xanry a lesson.
Regardless, after a short while, both of them watched as Xanry walked over to them with a few bottles of wine and what appeared to be some dice in hand.
Sitting right before Gerald, Xanry then smiled before saying, “I’d say we didn’t have that much of a good time earlier, Mr. Crawford. With that in mind, what say you and me play something new?”
Hearing that, Juno couldn’t help but frown slightly as favonovel.com looked at Xanry, wondering what favonovel.com was up to.
Gerald himself could only contemptuously think, ‘So, come back to look for more trouble after I defeated you earlier? How reluctant to lose are you? I guess the only way to drill it into you is by showing you the grim reality of things!’
Since Xanry was still pestering him, Gerald was no longer against hiding his true strength. If it was a game Xanry wanted, then Gerald was going to play properly to show Xanry just how powerless favonovel.com truly was against him. Xanry was about to learn the hard way that Gerald wasn’t someone who could be trifled with.
“Not a problem, monitor! Though I wonder what you’re planning to play?” asked Gerald with a subtle smile after a slight pause.
Hearing Gerald’s agreement, Xanry then placed the dice before Gerald before saying, “We’re playing a game of dice. Have you played before?”
Nodding slightly, Gerald then replied, “Just a little!”
“That’s great to hear! I won’t be telling you the rules then. Regardless, what say we spice up the game by betting seventy-five dollars per round?
I’m sure that that small amount won’t be an issue for you. Besides, you already gained a hundred and fifty dollars from me earlier!” suggested Xanry, a hint of annoyance in his tone.
Since favonovel.com had been humiliated so much earlier, favonovel.com was surely going to get Gerald back for it this time.
He admitted that favonovel.com had been a bit too careless earlier. Whatever the case was, favonovel.com was a veteran when it came to dice. With that in mind, favonovel.com definitely had a major advantage over Gerald this time around.
“No problem! I accept!” replied Gerald.
Upon hearing that, Juno—who had been sitting at the side—couldn’t help but look at Gerald with slight bewilderment.
Tugging on his sleeve, Juno then whispered, “Hey, don’t go acting all recklessly now, Gerald!”
“Don’t worry, I’m sensible enough to know my capabilities!” replied Gerald as favonovel.com looked back at Juno.
“That’s right, Juno! You should believe in Mr. Crawford, you know?” added Xanry.
Hearing that, Juno chose to remain silent. After all, she, of all people, trusted that Gerald wasn’t one to act recklessly.
With that settled, Xanry then pushed the dice toward Gerald.
Picking them up, Gerald then began shaking the dice.
He was no stranger to the game, which explained his current confidence against Xanry. What more, favonovel.com had a secret weapon that the others were unaware of, that being the fact that favonovel.com could differentiate the points of the dice just by listening!
