The Man's Decree novel Chapter 569

Chapter 569 Raise Our Bets

Samuel blushed at those uncalled-for remarks and cocked his head slightly toward Jared. “You know, Mr. Chance, it’s not about the two hundred million. That’s not a big deal for the Baileys. It’s just that—”

“I’ll honor your request if that’s really what you want.” Jared cut Samuel off before the latter could explain further why he wasn’t keen on the challenge. “But I think two hundred million is too little and not at all intriguing. I suggest that we raise our bets to two billion since that’s all I have.”

Jared then tossed his bank card onto the table and gave Sean an icy stare.

The silence in the room was deafening, and every single soul froze. It was no easy feat for someone of Jared’s age to own two billion. Even the heir to the richest of the richest wouldn’t be given that amount of pocket money to splurge!

Sean’s mind went blank for a moment before he forced a smile on his face. “Wow. Aren’t you a guileful little rat? Do you think you can trick me into believing that you actually have that much on that card?”

Sean didn’t believe that Jared could pay up two billion. He did a background check on Jared and knew that Horington carried no affluent families. More so, Sean was from an average family. How on earth would he be able to accumulate that amount of wealth?

“Sean, if you don’t trust Mr. Chance, you should at least trust the Baileys, right? If Mr. Chance couldn’t fork out that two billion at the end of the day, we will!” Samuel hissed.

That astronomical amount was a costly fortune to the Baileys but Samuel was more than willing to place his bet on Jared in order to earn his favor.

“Wonderful!” Sean flashed his widest smile. “I believe that the Baileys are able to provide that two billion since the head of the household himself had given the word. Two billion it is!”

When Sean was done confirming the bet, he looked at Barnabus steadfastly. “Mr. Holt, I shall trouble you for this endeavor. You shall take half of the bet when we win.”
