Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13 Don't Want to Live Again?

Lachlan suddenly pushed aside Mason's men and sat across from Snake, surprising everyone.

The skilled gambler looked at Mason with a questioning gaze.

Mason had no idea what Lachlan was up to and turned to his sister for answers.

But Miranda was just as confused, staring at Lachlan in bewilderment.

"Heh heh, switching players again?" Scar teased.

"Kid, you wanna play with me?" Snake raised an eyebrow and asked slyly.

"Why else would I sit down?" Lachlan nodded before shouting to Mason, "Brother-in-law, chips!"

"Brother-in-law?" Scar heard Lachlan's address for Manson and burst out laughing. "Ms. Lowe changed fiancés again?"

Mason walked over to stand beside Lachlan with a stern expression. "What are you trying to do? Do you even know how to gamble?"

Damn it, this guy wasn't trying to scam him on purpose, was he?

"Put some chips down!" Lachlan smiled.

Did Lachlan gamble?

He wouldn't say he was an expert; he'd played a bit with small amounts of money before.

But did he need to be an expert?

Not at all.

He just needed to focus his dragon energy on his eyes and he can see through the cards, knowing what both himself and his opponent had in their hands.

So all he had to do was bet when his hand was good and fold when it was not.

Mason hesitated for a moment before adding, "But if you try any funny business tonight, I'll chop you up into little pieces that even my sister can't protect you!"

With a warning issued, Mason turned to the casino manager and demanded 10 million chips. When they arrived, Snake asked with a sly grin on his face, "So friend, what game would you like to play?"

He was so confident that he had let Mason's side choose whatever game they wanted since arriving at the casino. They had already played several different games because Mason's people kept losing.

They hoped to change things up and turned the game around, but the results were always the same. Even with Lachlan on their team, Snake continued to taunt and provoke.

He was confident that he can handle Lachlan. Because Lachlan didn't even look thirty - there was no way he was a gambling expert!

But as far as Lachlan was concerned, any kind of gambling was fair game.

"Oh? Anything goes?" he raised an eyebrow.

"Yep, anything goes!" Snake nodded.

Lachlan chuckled wickedly. In the next moment, he turned to Mason and held out his hand. "Little bro-in-law, give me your revolver! And throw in another 20 million in chips while you're at it."

"What are you planning?" Mason asked nervously.

"The death roulette - haven't you heard of it?" Lachlan asked calmly.

As soon as he spoke, everyone in the room changed their expression.

"What the heck!"

"Here you go." Mason cursed and handed Lachlan a revolver with a twitching corner of his mouth.

"Lachlan, what are you doing?"

For some reason, when Miranda heard that Lachlan wanted to play death roulette, she felt nervous. Was she really getting nervous about this guy?
