Slumdog Billionaire Husband by Rayden Berg

Chapter 374 Wager His Life

Indeed, Perrin’s men must have known that Gerald had come here. Since he hadn’t appeared, it was

very normal for them to use Dragon Bones to lure him out.

When Gerald heard the people in the bar talking, he began to hesitate about whether to participate in

this competition!

The competition was also the topic of the bar tonight. After all, the prize money of 100 million lucs was

not a small amount.

After work, when Gerald went to the lounge to change clothes, Claude also leaned over and said,

“Boss, you have heard what the customers have been talking about, right?”

Gerald nodded.

“Do you want Theo to participate? Don’t you need the bones? Although it is very likely to be a setup by

Perrin’s men!” Claude said.

Obviously, he also saw it.

They used five Dragon Bones as bargaining chips at once. This was obviously to attract Gerald or

Gerald’s people over so that Perrin’s men could locate Gerald!

Franklin was in Sin City, and Perrin worked with Blood Lotus. And now, since it was the Northern

District, the Holy Lord of the district was also directly involved in this.

It could be said that the power pooled in the competition was considerable. The man sent by Perrin

was a super expert and ranked 6th place on the Sun List. He was extremely powerful.

The Holy Lord of the Northern District was also a super expert. Along with Franklin, who was going to

enter the super level… And there might be other experts…

If Gerald had regained his Vital Energy, he might not be so afraid, but the problem was that he

hadn’t at all.

Gerald waved his hand and said, “Let’s talk about it when we get back!”

Theo was already waiting for them outside. When they reached home, the house was quiet. Roger and

his wife were still in a coma, and Jenna had fallen asleep.

Gerald called them to the lobby on the second floor. After sitting down, he told them about the news in

the bar at night.

After Theo heard this, he looked at Gerald and said, “I will participate in it on your behalf and help you

get the bones back!”

Theo himself was Watchman No. 15. Normally, Watchmen would not appear on the Moon List unless

they were exposed. If Theo was exposed, he might be the match of the top ten on the list!

If Theo participated, he was very likely to win.

“No!” Valery frowned and said, “This is obviously a setup by Perrin’s men to make us show ourselves.”

“It doesn’t matter. My appearance shouldn’t have been exposed. They might know Boss, but they might

not know me. Five Dragon Bones will greatly help Boss. I think it is worth a shot.” Theo insisted.

“Hear me out!” At this time, Gerald let out a breath and said, “I … plan to risk it!”

“Huh?” Theo’s eyes lit up and he asked, “You will let me participate?”

Gerald shook his head and said, “No, I plan to participate myself.”

This was the result of Gerald’s consideration for the whole night.

Gerald’s words made everyone’s expressions change. Valery looked at Gerald and said, “You haven’t

regained any of your Vital Energy. You must be crazy! Moreover, Franklin knows your appearance. If

you show up, they will definitely make a move on you.”

“I’ve thought about it carefully,” Gerald muttered. “I still want to continue testing the method Milo told

me to recover my Vital Energy. You always go easy on me when you attack me. And you are also

worried that I will be in danger, so there will always be someone tagging along. My life is never at risk. I

want to wager my life this time.”

“I don’t think so!” Just as Gerald finished speaking, Valery said calmly.

Gerald smiled at Valery and said, “Are you worried about me, Dr. Manning?”

“Don’t talk nonsense at this time,” Valery said. “Your body is in good condition now. It is only a matter of

time before your Vital Energy recovers. There is no need to risk your life!”

Gerald shook his head and said, “I have to. We have been here for long, but we haven’t heard anything

about Carolyn and Jacob. I can only be more worried every day. So, I have to take a risk. Don’t worry.

Before I go, I will definitely disguise myself. It’ll be like signing a death warrant once I go in there. Also, I

will not expose myself directly to a few super experts.”

At this point, Gerald licked his lips and added, “Isn’t Kristen excellent at makeup? When the time

comes, she will apply makeup for me. She can change my face.”

“No matter what, I will not agree!” Valery said again.

Theo and the others also nodded and said, “Boss, we won’t agree either. You don’t have any Vital

Energy at all. The bonus is 100 million lucs. I’m afraid that there will be many top experts and even

people on the Moon List!”

Gerald let out a breath and looked at them. He said, “The discussion ends here. I have made up my

mind. I plan to risk my life to get the method of recovering Vital Energy. If something really happens to

me…”

Saying this, he looked at Valery and said, “By then, Dr. Manning, you’ll have to think of a way to contact

Blaine and ask him to take you away from here.”

Valery looked at Gerald’s determined eyes and frowned. But in the end, she did not refute it anymore

because she knew that it would be useless.

They sighed.

“What the hell is going on with you guys? I’m going to see if I can recover my Vital Energy. Why do you

guys make it seem that I’m going to die? Wait until I win the bet. After I recover my Vital Energy, we will

occupy this city,” Gerald said.

That night, because Gerald decided to participate in this competition, the atmosphere in the house was

a bit depressing. They were all worried sick about him.

At ten o’clock the next morning, Kristen put on makeup for Gerald. She directly turned Gerald into a

middle–aged man and even stuck a bit of a beard on his face. This made him look like a totally different

person. Then Theo drove Gerald to the Northern District arena!

This arena was large and could accommodate seven to eight thousand people.

At the entrance of the arena, there were several registration points. People were making up long

queues.

“Boss…” Theo looked at so many people and said, “Are you sure that…”

Gerald nodded and said, “Yes!”

They lined up for an hour and finally it was Gerald’s turn.

At this time, at the registration point, a beautiful girl was sitting there. She was holding a document, and

next to her was a person holding a camera and taking pictures.

Theo moved aside.

“Your name?” the beautiful girl asked.

Gerald pondered for a moment. He could not use his real name. He assumed that this must have

something to do with Perrin and his men, so naturally, they would screen people by their names.

The name Garrett Kenneth couldn’t be used either, because most people in Sin City knew that this

name referred to the former Watchman No. o!

Gerald let out a breath and then smiled, “Gerry Kenneth!”

This was his second identity in the city.

At the same time, Charles was sitting at the edge of a swimming pool downtown. He looked at Davis in

the pool and frowned!

The phone that Davis placed on the side suddenly rang.

Davis walked up from the pool. He wiped his hands and picked up the phone.

After a moment, his brow furrowed.

Then, he looked at Charles and said, “Gerald … takes the competition for Dragon Bones!”

“Really?” Charles raised his eyes and asked, “His Vital Energy has recovered?”

“I don’t know!” Davis said, “But you said that if he recovered his Vital Energy, I would be the first one he

saw!”

“Then he should be crazy!” Charles frowned.
