Once Grant finished, he looked pointedly at Daniel, taunting, “So, what’s it going to be, country boy? Are you in or out?”
“I’m definitely in! Why would I back down? I’ll come out on top, just wait until we cut this stone open. I know it’ll give us Golden Jade worth millions.”
Daniel grinned at Grant, anticipating victory.
“Guess what? If I win, Aaron bows to me, and you will too. I’m looking forward to that!”
“You’re dreaming, country boy! You can't win! It’s impossible! Three victories in a row? It just won’t happen!”
“You’re absolutely right, Grant. If luck was on my side, a third win would be tough. But the truth is, my skill in jade gambling isn’t luck—it's talent. Luck leads to losses. In a hundred bets, you’d lose ninety-nine!”
As Daniel spoke, the worker began cutting into the stone with a buzzing electric saw.
