The Lethal Love Hunter

Chapter 11 An 8-Billion-Dollar Bet

Jacob was overjoyed.

He was confident that his level of horseback archery was incomparable in Hallcester and even

Vallisburg.

He loved horseback archery since childhood and had won many awards in this field over the years.

He even won the first in the national horseback archery competition in the adult amateur category last

year.

If Robin agreed to compete with him, he could take the opportunity to humiliate Robin and let Robin

make a fool of himself!

“OK! How do you suggest we compete? Shall we play in groups or against each other?” Jacob gave

Robin a contemptuous glance and said complacently.

“Me alone will be enough. You can do whatever you want,” Robin said coldly. “You may go one-on-one

against me or group up.

“Yet competing in such a way will be boring. If you really want to compete with me, take a bet!”

Jacob was instantly intrigued and thought, “You silly fuck. You wanna bet on horseback archery with

me? You’re doomed today!”

“Sure! That will spice things up. How should we bet? Mr. Bruce, will 10 dollars be too much for you?”

Saying that, Jacob laughed together with Krish, Miranda, Crystal, and the others.



Robin glanced at Karina and said, “I’ll bet the entire shares of the Huber family’s investment in the

Eastern Business District project!”

Hearing that, Karina trembled all over. She almost spilled the glass of water she had just picked up on

her.

She shakily put the glass on the coffee table and thought, “What a bastard! Is he kidding me?

“My family’s total investment in the Eastern Business District project is worth nearly 8 billion dollars!

“How could he just use it as a bet to compete with Jacob and the others so casually?

“Is this child’s play in his eyes?

“What if he loses?

“My family may be rich.

“Still, a project worth 8 billion dollars means something for us.”

Robin’s words shocked Karina. Also, Jacob, Krish, Miranda, and the others were stunned.

They thought, “Is Robin serious?

“The Huber family’s 8-billion-dollar investment share in the Eastern Business District project is not a

joke.

“The later income of this project can be said to be more than ten times!

“Countless people in Hallcester want to get their hands on it, and yet they might not be that lucky.

“Even if Robin is joking, Karina and her family will not agree.”

Collecting himself, Jacob glanced at Robin mockingly and said, “Ms. Huber, he claims that he’s gonna

bet the Huber family’s total investment share in the Eastern Business District project. Are you OK with

that? Is Mr. Huber OK with that?”

Karina was indeed hesitant.

Yet Robin was the Huber family’s savior.

Harold once said that Robin could have all the Huber family’s assets.

Besides, Robin was just about to bet the Huber family’s total investment share in the Eastern Business

District project. It was just 8 billion dollars.

Even if Robin lost, the Huber family wouldn’t say a word.

Karina clenched her teeth, threw caution to the wind, and said, “Of course! Of course, I agree with

whatever Robin says!

“Yet you, do you dare to bet against the Huber family?”

Jacob and the others were stunned. Their hearts skipped a beat.

Karina was right.

The bet was worth 8 billion dollars, which was more than the total money that the four families had.

Seeing them dare not answer, Robin smiled, “You do not need to bet too much. 48 million dollars will

be enough. You can put up 48 million dollars in cash to bet.

“If even that’s too much for you, you might as well get lost and stop barking around here. It’s so

annoying.”

Robin beckoned to several of the venue attendants who were managing the bets and motioned for

them to bring in the betting contracts.

Gambling services were included in various games in Cecilia’s Purpeak Club.

The rich guys who were regulars here often sought excitement.

Therefore, they would privately ask the club to provide gambling services such as betting.

Consequently, there were specialized personnel to provide services for such betting modes, and their

services included contract signing, competition arbitration, and others.

At Purpeak Club, once a contract was signed, there was no going back.

There were specialized personnel who were responsible for enforcement.

Cecilia’s ruthlessness was well known in Hallcester’s business world.

So far, no one dared to cheat here.

48 million dollars?

Jacob hesitated.

Although the Walsh family could afford it, his father would never approve of it if he used it as a bet in a

game.

However, now that it had come to this point, if he didn’t agree, he would be laughed at in the upper

class in Hallcester.

Dignity meant everything for someone at his level.



Jacob glanced at Krish, Miranda, and Crystal.

He was saying to them that they were together with him in this bet.

Therefore, the three should put some money into it as well.

Seeing that Jacob and the others were frightened because of the money, Robin sneered, “If you got

cold feet, then just forget it. Since you don’t have this kind of capital, stop playing arrogant in front of

me from now on!”

Jacob and the others would never be willing to be humiliated by someone like Robin.

Jacob thought, “It’s just 48 million dollars.

“So what? At worst, I’ll be scolded by my family.”

He threw caution to the wind. “Krish, I’ll bet 16 million dollars.”

Hearing that, Krish could only say, “Fine. I’ll bet 16 million dollars as well. The remaining money shall

be divided by Miranda and Crystal.”

Miranda didn’t want to agree at first, yet her hands were tied.

If they gave in to Robin, they would be humiliated.

After all, in their eyes, Robin was just an underdog who didn’t get to say a word.

Hesitating over 48 million dollars would make no sense.

“Fine. We’ll divide it,” Miranda and Crystal said through gritted teeth.



Soon, the service staff of the Gaming Management Department of Purpeak Club put the betting

agreements in front of them.

Karina pondered for a moment and then signed without hesitation, thinking, “Robin, I hope that you

won’t make me and my family suffer.”

Jacob, Krish, Crystal, and Miranda looked at the contracts in front of them, and their foreheads were

already soaked with sweat.

All four of them were shaking violently as they signed.

Their bet quickly attracted the attention of all the players at the horseback archery center.

Some of the customers who were playing quickly put down their things and came to watch.

After all, it was the first time in the history of Purpeak Club that such a big bet had been made.

Jacob and the others simply wanted to humiliate Robin at first, yet things got out of control.

Jacob regretted it a bit, yet it was too late.

He was confident of his skills in horseback archery, and he believed that no one in Vallisburg was a

match for him.

Yet he was terrified by the enormity of the stakes.

Once he lost, he knew that his father would not easily take out 16 million dollars.

And he would never get an allowance from his family ever again.

Miranda was even more uneasy.



She had to take out 8 million dollars.

It was definitely a lot for the Brown family.

She was the CEO of the Brown Group.

What if they lost?

She would be targeted by a group of the Brown family’s relatives in the board meeting.

She might even lose her job.

Robin noticed that they were all having their own thoughts, and he was amused.

Robin thought, “You bunch of losers. I didn’t bother to waste my time on you at first.

“Yet you were stupid enough to keep pestering me.

“Since you want to humiliate me, I might as well let you experience the feeling of losing everything

today!”

They signed the betting agreement.

The service staff responsible for gambling in Purpeak Club vouched on the spot.

It was kind of like notarization.

In such a way, if either of them failed to honor the bet after the match, Purpeak Club would be

responsible for the follow-ups.

The game hadn’t started yet.



All the players and the management of the darts center and the horseback archery center had

gathered.

After all, it was an 8-billion-dollar bet.

More importantly, the person involved in this bet was Karina, the daughter of the Huber family.

It was a rare thing.

Jacob was well known in Hallcester for his skills in horseback archery.

He won the first in the national horseback archery competition in the adult amateur category last year.

Hardly anyone in Vallisburg or even the entire Londraland was his match.

Unless they were professional champions.

So, a lot of people betted on him before they placed their bets.

After signing the contract, Jacob quickly focused on the game.

Ten minutes later, Jacob dressed in a handsome riding suit, carried a metal bow and arrow, rode a

white tall horse, and came from the background to the arena.

He looked dashing and handsome, with the muscular posture of a professional when it came to

horseback archery.

His appearance was greeted with applause and screams.
