Beatrice took out her phone and opened up her class group chat. She then found the video that she
was talking about.
Both Dorothy and Claire huddled closer to watch the video together.
Even the CEO of the City South Branch of Assex Constructions, Dorothy, was interested in making 500
million from 500 thousand dollars. Her heart was pounding hard. She wanted to see how great this
Stone Gambling Prince was as well.
She had looked into the stone gambling industry after all.
Back then, she had a friend who loved to gamble on stones. But now theyâve lost everything; their
debts were all over the place; and all they could do now was abandon the life they had to hide from
loan sharks. They were nowhere to be seen nowâ¦
Thus, Dorothy knew how stone gambling worksâit really does rely solely on luck. Even their most
advanced technology couldnât tell if the ores had jadeites within before cutting them open.
However, this Stone Gambling Prince was able to get rare emeralds from all three ores he bought.
âWas this based on luck too?
âIf it was, then he must really have the ultimate luck!â
Beatrice explained excitedly. âAny average person wouldnât be able to pick out three ores that all
contained emeralds. My classmateâs father is fairly well-known in the stone gambling community. He
said that thereâs no way anyone could achieve this under normal circumstances. This guy either has
the ultimate luck or superpowers!â
Alex stared at Beatrice, who was excitedly babbling on about âthe Princeâ, her eyes filled with hope.
However, Alex was mainly concerned about the video, he wanted to know if anyone had caught his
face on camera.
At the end of the video, Alex let out a deep sigh of relief.
He wasnât caught on camera.
However, Waltz was.
The person holding the camera had intentionally zoomed in on Waltz as well. It was clear that he
admired Waltzâs beauty and body. Alex, on the other hand, was standing slightly behind Waltz, his face
was blocked by the massive crowd.
Dorothy said, âWhy are they recording a woman? Werenât you guys talking about a Stone Ganbling
Prince? Is she the prince then?â
Beatrice replied, âOf course not, Sis. Do you not know who this woman is? This woman really is
something else, youâll definitely be shocked. She has a nicknameâPrincess Fleur.â
âPrincess Fleur?â Dorothy paused for a brief moment before exclaiming. âYouâre saying, sheâs Waltz
Fleur from Thousand Miles Conglomerate?â
Beatrice exclaimed as well. âYeah, thatâs her! The Stone Gambling Prince is her boyfriend⦠What an
amazing duo. If I were to get myself a boyfriend like him, I wouldnât have to worry about anything and
just enjoy life! Iâll be able to live in a big manor and go for fine dining in the best restaurants in town. Iâll
get a luxurious bed to sleep on too⦠Ah, how I wish!â
Alex almost let out a chuckle as Beatrice continued gushing on and on about the prince.
âYouâve been going on and on about this man, yet he is standing right in front of you. This exact man
was the one you called a loser. If you were to find out about this, I wonder how shocked you will be?â
Claire was extremely fond of the prince as well.
She sighed. âEveryone said that Mr. Willâs stone gambling store had many ores that contained rare
jades. So that means that heâs hit the mining jackpot this time. If there were lots of ores that were in the
green, there would be a high percentage of getting such jades. Lucia persuaded me to use up all my
savings, I even had to get a loan of 500 thousand from them. Yet, all I got wasâ¦â
Dorothy took a deep breath and calmed herself. âAlright, dreamâs over. Letâs just treat this as any other
normal news. We have to be humble and work towards our goals. Thereâs no way such luck exists
within all of us. All you guys see is the Stone Gambling Prince making lots of money, yet donât you see
many others who lost everything to stone gambling? Mom, you yourself are an example of this, arenât
you? Havenât you learned your lesson? Iâd have to work for at least half a year to earn 500 thousand
dollars!â
With this, both Claire and Beatrice snapped back to reality.
Just then, Beatrice realized that Alex was standing right behind her. He was fairly close as well. She
elbowed him in the gut and nudged him away. Disgusted, she said, âWhat are you looking at? Are you
trying to molest me? Why were you standing so close to me? Get lost! Look at Princess Fleurâs
boyfriend, he was able to earn a few hundreds of millions just like that. And you? You havenât earned
jack sh*t! Youâre such a failure compared to him!â
Alex scanned Beatrice up and down and chuckled coldly. âHmph, you look like a bamboo stick. I
wouldnât want you even if you pushed yourself on to me. Youâre so annoying too. If it werenât for your
sister, I wouldâve pushed your face into the toilet.â
âYouââ
âOh, shut up. Heâs your brother-in-law. If it werenât for his help, I donât know what weâd do!â Dorothy
defended Alex.
She was starting to get possessive over Alex.
Cheryl was a major threat to her. Both her and her grandfather seemed to be very fond of Alex, they
wanted him as family.
Marriage didnât exactly tie one down as they all said, divorce was still an option.
Dorothy felt extremely threatened. After all, the Assexes werenât exactly fond of Alex and Cheryl was
gorgeous.
