Chapter 722: Hell toyed with the ring on his index finger, his lips curving into a subtle smirk. "Your turn, Miss Holland." With deliberate calmness, Corrine revealed her cards, speaking with quiet intrigue. “And what happens if there's a tie, I wonder?" Her words hung in the air, provoking a ripple of disbelief among the onlookers. Even at such a critical moment, this woman still wore her mask of courage, a calm veneer masking the storm within. It was a rare occurrence for a gambling gto end in a tie. In fact, ties were nearly unheard of-because in games like this, someone always lost, and someone always walked away with everything.

All eyes turned toward the speaker.

Upon seeing Jules, the crowd couldn't help but exhale in unison, a sense of relief washing over them.

If it had been anyone else, challenging Mr. Martel might have ended in catastrophe. But with Jules, a member of the Ford family, it was a different story entirely.

After all, the Ford family had been the wealthiest in Lyhaton for decades, and such power was not to be taken En lightly. The room fell into an uneasy silence.

Gaze shifting between Hell and Jules, the atmosphere grew thick-withm tension so thick it seemed to suffocate them all.

Hell's expression darkened slightly at the sight of Jules, his earlier casual demeanor evaporating True, I don't N lack for women, but a woman like Miss Holland? She's something else entirely."
