The Momobami mansion has its gambling room. As the guy agreed to gamble with Mary, Mrs. Momobami have to say yes to it even it took her a long time to think. They went to the gambling room while Ririka was sent to her room. She can't move even one foot out until the game come to an end

They sat at the gambling table with Mrs. Momobami become the host. They started to play. While they are playing, the guy kept smiling and smirking which bothering Mary so much. It feels like the guy was trying to trick her. The chance of Mary winning was 50/50. It either the guy was bluffing or he sure has good hands. Whatever decision that Mary take will have its own risk

"Ready for the showdown young lady?" The guy asked

Mary nodded while trying to read his mind. She has to win this gamble. The prize is Ririka, whoever wins gets to marry her. She can't let this chance wasted just like that. It's now or never

"I call" The guy put a few chips at the table that cost 500,000$

Mary shocked. The value was high. Was this guy just bluffing or what?! Mary's hand was shaking. She doesn't know what to do or what to think. Her mind was empty. Should she raise? Or... Should she fold? She took a deep breath and brave herself "I'll raise another 500,000$"

The guy smirked "How about if we add a little bit fun to this game, all in?"

Hearing that made Mary's heart racing. Yup, this guy was insane. Mary keeps silent for a while and a minute later, she finally makes up her mind "Okay, all in!"

They put all of the chips at the table and the guy laughs loud "I guess that I win the prize!" He said and showed his card. He has a good hand, straight flush of clover

Mary looked at the floor to covered her face. As the guy was about to take all of the chips, Mary stopped him and a big smile was hanging on her face "It's too bad, you sure have a good hand but MY HAND IS MORE GOOD THAN YOU!" Mary said and the guy shocked

"W-what do y-you mean?!"

"ROYAL FLUSH!" Mary showed her card, a royal flush of love

"H-how?!" The guy looked at Mrs. Momobami that also shocked. Both of them didn't believe what just happened

"Do you wondering how I can win even you are cheating?!" Mary smirked "Well it's too easy. As person that used to attended Hyakkaou before, your cheat was so bad. Even house pet can do better!"

"NO! I DID AS WHAT WE HAVE PLAN MRS MOMOBAMI. I JUST CAN'T UNDERSTAND!"

"It's easy to understand. Both of you and Mrs. Momobami keep signaling by knocking on the table. And as I examine your card, they look a little bit strange and at the moment I realize that your card was already marked. And you thought that I can't win this so you marked the straight flush of clover and not the royal flush. Mrs. Momobami, I have to admit that you are very talented at handling the cards but you're too focused to gave him the straight flush until you forgot about me. Well I guess, the luck is in my side" Mary explained

"I thought you said you wanted to win my princess with a fair game, what happened with that?" She smirked at the guy and then moved her eyes to Mrs. Momobami "Now you have no right to stop me from marrying your daughter right Mrs. Momobami?"

Mrs. Momobami sat down and try to calm down "I will never break my promise" She stood up and looked at Mary "You have proved to me that you have what it takes to marry my daughter. I will let you have her"

"Thank you for that and now if you don't mind, I would like to see my Riri" She was about to make her way out but suddenly one maid entered the room with a panicked face

"I was delivering food to Ririka's room and as I opened the door, I saw her on the floor, unconscious!" The maid said

"What the?!" Mary got out from the gambling room and run to Ririka's room
