Novel & Cerita Leo Lottery

The emcee calls out once more. Emcee: "Ten million... Going once... Going twice..." And with that, the hammer falls. Emcee: "Sold! To Mr. Leo Kingsley for ten million dollars!" I whisper, barely above a breath, as my gaze flickers nervously toward Leo. "Why did you bid so much?" Leo turns to me, his expression unreadable, as usual. "Because you said you liked it."

He is glaring at Leo like he will surely deal with him after this. *15,500$ and that belongs to me,” The murky aura guy that had talked with Leo earlier said, which had the crowd murmuring in awe. *15,500$, Who is opposing? Goes one time, two times, three…” "19,000$ Mine,” Leo muttered, looking at me. Tch. “22,000$ Mine,” I said in an audibly shaky voice, raising my lot in my left hand. "23,000$ Mine,” Leo said again.

“Scout’s honor.” Leo’s cheeks turned a light pink. “Oh, well… it's kind of embarrassing. You know Elio Knight?” “No, I don't, I'm not from here,” I said with a blank face, and he laughed animatedly. “Stop laughing and tell me. Is he famous?” “He is the town's golden boy. The captain of the football team, Homecoming King, and probably the kindest person in the school.” Leo had hearts in his eyes as he spoke about the boy. “He looks like the lead actor from one of those 80s movies.”

Leo wheeled, looked at his friend who was standing behind him, and commanded, “Bring me a bottle of mineral water! It’s so f*cking warm here. Dammit!” The young man’s forehead puckered, he could easily sense that panic was surging through Leo. When it was a one billion bet per game and one tiny mistake would cost a billion bucks, who would not be in a swivet? After all, the Turner family was merely a third-class family and they did not own many properties and assets. If Leo continued to lose today, his five billion bucks credit balance would not be able to pay up the loss. The young man quickly grabbed a bottle of water and tossed it to Leo. Leo twisted it open and gulped it down.
