The question is, if Lee is savvy enough to pull off his plan in time?

Thing have finally started crashing down for Lee.

The government of Lee's home nation finally tracks him down. Fortunately, Lee is rescued by some people he did not expect to see so out in the open.

This leads to Lee having a heart to heart conversation with Chang.

Lee just has to make sure than Chang does not take Lee's heart out, during their conversation.

CHAPTER 46
Alice kept us on the edge for quite a while, including one particular day when she arrested, which left my uncle shaking and shaken. I stayed as long as I could manage, but in the end I had no choice but to head back west, this time with my wife beside me, which did ease the strain of the driving. I love my sister to distraction, but why she had to pick the other side of Britain to live…

Lee finds himself in the middle of a very bad situation. He is being forced, by Revy and Chang, into a poker game with River, inside a room, on the casino penthouse floor. With the former con-woman, Faye Valentine, as their dealer.

Each side has a million dollars in chips on the line. And it is Revy's money that Lee is gambling with.

In addition, with River's genius and telepathy, there cameras and microphones monitoring the room she, Lee, and Faye are in. With the video and audio feeds being sent to the rest of the casino, for everyone there to watch their every move, and listen to their every comment.

As such, there is no room for error for Lee. One mistake, and he will blow his cover as the writer, to the whole world.

Unfortunately, if Lee hopes to continue breathing by the end of the day, he not only has to keep his cover from everyone, but he also has to win a million dollars in chips for Revy, against the telepathic genius, River, while keeping River happy.

Though, Lee knows that he can do this, because it is all in the cards.

"Have a good time," Nikki said as I carried my bag out into the hall.

And given Revy foolishness, Lee is really starting to wonder if Revy really did lose her mind.
