As the granddaughter of the wealthiest magnate in San Heith, Cynthia Shannon had been in a relationship with Joe Louise for three years, only to find her sincere affections spurned and left in the dust.
Joe regarded her as a simple rural woman, and on their wedding day, he abandoned her to pursue another dazzling beauty, leaving Cynthia heartbroken. But once she decisively ended the relationship, she reclaimed her status as a wealthy heiress, inheriting a fortune worth billions. Her life then ascended to its pinnacle, yet there were always scoundrels who emerged to vex her.
Amidst Cynthia's efforts to deal with these scoundrels, a certain Mr. Ford, known for inspiring dread in anyone who heard his name, stood by, applauding her with admiration. "My formidable wife," Mr. Ford praised.
Cynthia Shannon replied, "Please mind your choice of words."
Mr. Ford half-closed his eyes, leaning elegantly against the bed, his movements bewitching. "With this token as evidence, do you still want to deny our bond?"

From Wedding Betrayal to Billionaire's Devotion

The moment Cynthia's eyes met Georgina's, she sensed the hostility in the latter's gaze, and a faint guess began to form in her heart. 


Suddenly, Cynthia's red lips curled into a bright smile. "How about we play the simplest game—rolling dice?" 


"Are you sure?" Georgina's eyes showed a hidden gleam of smugness. 


At this point, Isaac spoke up, "This is Georgina's forte. She's never lost at this game since she was a child. If you play with her, you won't come out on top." 


Upon hearing this, Cynthia raised an eyebrow slightly, a meaningful smile flashing in her eyes. 


Well, it just so happens that she has never lost either. 


Seeing Cynthia silent, Georgina, worried that she might back out, quickly added, "Isaac, Miss Shannon is visiting Independent State for the first time. We should be hospitable, right? Since she's chosen to play dice, we should happily comply..."
