Sheri had been given the exact same amount of capital to play with as Chad. Max had trusted her with it, fully. It was a huge risk on his part, and she knew it. If both Chad and Sheri failed at their respective events, Max wouldn't just be down one hundred million. He would be down two hundred million… maybe even closer to three hundred million if he counted the money tied up in the event he himself was currently attending.
The thought made Sheri's palms sweat.
Max was gambling with sums she could barely even comprehend, but she understood why he was doing it. He wasn't just looking to make profit. He wasn't simply chasing luck. He wanted something back, his fifty million that he had been forced to pay Jett. And more than that, he wanted compensation for everything his people had gone through.
That was why he was willing to play aggressively.
That was why he was putting trust in those who had managed to complete their Vows.
