A Gamble II

"What?!" The young lady exclaimed in shock, she didn't think Klaus would call such an amount. 

She might be from a well-off family, but she couldn't afford something like this. Even if she managed to find a way to get it, it would mean emptying her savings and also borrowing from people as well. 

"You can't take part in a free gamble now, can you?" Klaus asked with an evil grin, "Two of my friends might lose their chances of gaining the number one spot, while only her would lose her chance. That doesn't seem fair in my honest opinion."

"We'll pay it." The young lady who was still part of the competition said coolly. 

"I…" The young lady eliminated wanted to speak but the other one whispered to her. 

"Do you think we would both lose against a single person?" The young lady who was part of the competition asked in a soft voice.
