Chapter 50

50 Mastermind

The middle-aged man adjusted his gold-framed glasses. He looked gentle and refined, but there was an intimidating look in his eyes.

If some important figures in New York were present, they would know who this person was-he was Quayle! He was figuratively known as the king of New York, and nobody dared to offend him!

Quayle took the card and nodded approvingly. “Perry, I didn’t expect you to have some skills. Not bad-not bad at all!”

Perry replied with a smile, “You have taught me well to understand the thoughts of these gamblers. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to earn so much. However, there are some people causing trouble recently, so I have to find a way to settle it.”

“Ignore those people. We should let them know that gambling is risky. If you think it’s not safe, I’ll send more people to help you.”

“Thank you, Quayle!” Perry was pleasantly surprised, but he still tried hard to maintain his composure. “With your words, I feel much more at ease. You also know that the York Group has been in charge of the casinos for many years. It wasn’t easy for me to grasp such an opportunity, so I definitely won’t let it go easily. Let’s make a fortune together in the future.”

Perry didn’t have any background, so he had to survive in New York with his own ability. Fortunately, he was smart.

He originally wanted to open a casino, but he didn’t expect that even though Mr. York wasn’t in New York, he had sent his grandchildren here to keep an eye on them. The profits were bleak in the beginning, but he didn’t expect Quayle to appear and help him.

He seized the opportunity and came under this person’s protection. Although he didn’t know Quayle’s real identity, Perry knew from the way he acted that with his blessings, he could do anything he wanted in New York. Perry knew that nobody would dare to seek revenge on Quayle.

It was precisely because he had Quayle as his backer that he could open all kinds of gambling dens without any worries. His business was also flourishing.

Just as Perry was gloating, his subordinate suddenly called. The moment the latter opened his mouth, he was displeased. “Boss, something has happened! There’s a woman who claims to be from the Stewart family. She wants us to cancel our debt with that housewives group and return the money we won from them. She said that if we don’t do this, she’ll send you to prison immediately.”

“Hahaha-” Perry couldn’t help but laugh. “Gambling has always been a matter of accepting one’s defeat. How can there be such a thing as returning their money?”

“What happened?” Quayle frowned slightly and asked the man beside him.

Perry frowned and said to Quayle, “I didn’t want to disturb you at first, but there’s someone outside who claims to be from the Stewart family and is causing trouble! You also know that my newly opened casinos still aren’t profitable yet, and they lost quite a lot. They said that if we don’t wipe out the debt they owe and return the money we earned, they will send us to prison. Sonia also said that the Stewart family has someone above them, and no matter who we are, they will wipe us out...”

Perry conveyed those words half-heartedly and exaggerated the meaning behind it-the purpose was to infuriate Quayle. Thereafter, he quickly pleaded, “Sir, although the Stewart family isn’t a wealthy family in New York, they still have some power. If they really escalate this, I’m afraid... Quayle, please help me. I can’t thank you enough!”

“The Stewart family?” Quayle snorted. “What does the Stewart family count as in my eyes? Even the head of their family has to address me politely and bow when he sees me. Now, their younger generation is actually using their family’s reputation to bully others? I think that family is really tired of living!”

Perry looked at Quayle’s gloomy face and agreed.

“Since they dared to do something like this, they should be prepared. I want to know which reckless junior from the Stewart family wants me to cough up all the money I earned. They must be dreaming!”
