Callum who was seated behind Ghost was impressed when Ghost managed to make his way into the last remaining two players on the table. He had more than quadrupled the $250,000 earlier.
"Great! I can rely on my wife to take care of me in the future," thought Callum as he laughed softly at his own inside joke.
Glancing at his watch, Callum noticed that it was getting late. When they were taking a 5 minutes break, he went to Ghost. With his hand resting on Ghost's shoulder, he whispered, "We are going to be late for the next event. Can you wrap this up?"
Ghost nodded before whispering back, "I think we should be done in another 15 minutes."
His opponent, Mr. Carl, smirked when he saw the closeness between those two. When the game began, he kept smirking at Ghost as if he was having his own inside jokes.
"Mr. Carl, I'm in a hurry. This would be the last round," said Ghost nonchalantly as he raised his hand to stop the croupier from dealing the cards.
