Originally, Steve Burton planned to return to the West Suburb Villa at six o'clock. However, because Ruby Gregory came to the city, he ended up having dinner with Rusell Henris, Edward Woods, and Howard Coleman in the evening.
After dinner, since there was still plenty of time, Steve didn't rush Ruby to go home, and instead, the four of them went to The Sapphire Bistro and rented a mahjong table to play.
Howard was a bit off his game. Among the four playing mahjong, he was the only one losing.
In just two hours, he had lost nearly 300,000 in chips.
The one winning the most was Edward Woods, who had a cigarette hanging from his mouth and impatiently tapped his fingers on the table, waiting for Howard to make a move.
However, who would have thought that after Howard drew a tile, he stared blankly at the table, not reacting at all for quite a while.
