Chapter 140 In the underground casino, a blend of loud and noisy music was blaring, and the smell of alcohol and cigarettes permeated the huge, dark a Warna yellow lights illuminated every card table, with men and women seated before it, their faces either vexed or full of smiles.
A beautiful dealer, dressed in seductive clothing, stood before the card table, giving out cards w stimulated everyoneâs senseL space.
with a smile. The clattering sound of chips toppling At the entrance stood a line of wellâbuilt and intimidating bodyguards. They were all dressed in black and wearing sunglasses, with their hands behind them, standing firm.
Jasmine glanced around hesitantly. The bustle and extravagant atmosphere in the casino made her, who boasted of having seen the world, a little scared. She was initially full of fighting spirit, but now, she couldnât even move an inch. âMr. Jenkins, itâs my first time here, and Iâm unfamiliar with this place. Are there any rules here?â said Jasmine delicately.
Wesley ignored Jasmine and pulled out a golden card. The security was stunned, but quickly bent over and made a welcome gesture. The attendant loudly greeted, âWelcome, Mr. Caldwell The comumotion left Jasmine startled. Only then did she realize that Wesley wasnât a simple person. Many people turned around and looked at the man at the entrance in silence. Of course, some of them recognized Wesley, Garrett Tate, who was in high spirits at the card table, swallowed. âWhat is this Grim Reaper doing in Accester?â
âWho is he?â a person asked.
âWesley Jenkins. Donât talk behind his back. He has a bad temper. If you offend him, heâll hunt you down wherever you got another answered.
âJeez. heâs so vindictive?â responded the other.
Overhearing the discussion, Garrett sneered, âHeâs one horrible man. Thatâs it for now. Iâll leave first.â
Yet, before anyone could take flight, Wesley already had his attention on their table. He lowered his head, took out a cigarette from the box in his hand, and casually held it in his mouth. âMake room.â
As soon as those words fell, though some were indignant, they still obediently stepped aside.
The fact that everyone at Spring Breeze Casino paid him so much attention showed that he wasnât a nobody. After all, the casino was powerful across the country and an absolute underground force. Anyone with common sense would know what kind of status the honored guest of the Kauno beld.
Noticing the looks of awe and curiosity on the crowdâs faces, Jasmine was secretly delighted. She straightened up and lifted her hand to tidy up the stray strands of hair by her cheek, revealing the dazzling diamond bracelet on her wrist. Standing beside someone with such an overwhelming, impressive presence made her bean race and her cheeks blush. âMr. Jenkins. Jasmine said softly, subconsciously inching closer to him, However, Wesley didnât give her any chance to throw herself into his arms. He pointed to a seat. âSit down.â
Jasmine sat on the stool, and everyone at the card table looked at her meaningfully. Sitting next to her, Wesley said in a low voice, âGet me 1 million dollars worth of chips.â
The security immediately did as told. An attendant looked at Jasmine, mistaking her for Wesleyâs woman âMiss, how many chips would you like to exchange?â
Jasmineâs lips twitched. To not playingâ
Garrett reminded, âOnce you sit down here, youâll have to play?
Jasmine frowned.
That âGive her 10 million dollars worth Wesley took off his sunglasses, revealing his harsh gaze. âIf you lose everything, youâll pay for it with your lifeâ wasnât something Jasmine couldnât afford! She trembled, her face turning ghastly pale. âNo, I canât play! I donât know how to play! Mr. Jenkins, did I offend you in some way! 1-1 can correct myself...â
She was on the verge of tears. This was akin to entering a lionâs den. Her guts were blue with remorse.
âCorrect yourself?â Wesley looked at Jasmine, who almost collapsed in her seat, paralyzed with fear. âWell, do it I do it in your ne your next life.â
Sensing something, Garrett immediately ordered the game to begin, âHurry! Deal the cards! Donât ruin Mr. Jenkins mood!
Half an hour later, Jasmine cried so much her makeup was ruined, and her hands were quivering. Smoking. Wesley uttered, âPlace y your ber Jasmine shuddered. She closed her eyes and pushed out the chips before her. Wesley casually picked up the cards with one hand and lifted the enrers of his lips into a cruel smirk. âIt seems like youâll lose everything today. What should we do?â
There were no ships left before Jasmine. Wesley looked his finger, asking the attendant to give her another 10 million dollars inyclips.
âTeamt play anymore. I ashuis detrailâ Jasmineâs voice had cracker the crying Fred with that devil, she almost fell to her knees. Nonetheless, it was useless to beg for mercy. Some people might look exceptionally humudsomme, bas they are no different from devils inside. Once targeted by thens, one would only be doomed to hell.
The toked by slowly Jasmine was out all night, and the last place she appeared was Riverside Bay. When her parents realized they had lost their cash cow, they unmediately called the police. Madeline and Harper, having had conflicts with Jasmine, were both summoned to give their statements. They ended up spending what was originally their vacation at the police station.
Covering her face, Harper walked out to see Madeline sitting in the hall waiting for her. With a gloomy expression, she said, âJasmine is nothing laut. trouble. How can she disappear nowhere and drag us into this mess! Besides, her parents sur are wicked. They cut off their collaboration with my family just because they suspected me. My dad will surely leak my legs when I go back tonight!â
Madeline looked calm âDonât worry. It has nothing to do with us. Weâre just here to provide cluesâ
ÐÐµÑ attention was directed to a woman on the other side, who was cursing at a neck man before her. âI canât believe youâre having bitch! How can you forget you have a wife? How much money did you spend on her? I want her to return everything!â
Harper was surprised and couldnât help muttering, Jasmineâs character is so terrible. Her disappearance this time has exposed all her shameful acts. Sheâll probably be hated by everyone if she returns. I never knew she was a homewrecker. The audacity of her to look down on us, huh?â
Harper was chattering away when Seat and Jemmy Zook walked over.
Jenny looked condescendingly at Harper and said in a cold and menacing tone, âDonât think I donât know youâre the one who did this, Jasmine quarreled with you in the underground parking, so you made a move on her! If anything happens to her, Iâll do whatever it takes to bring your family downl Seanâs eyes darkened. âI wonât do anything to you because youâre younger than me. But if you donât hurry and let Jasmine go. I promise you that your father wonât be able to bear the consequensorsâ
Harperâs chest heaved violently. I didnât do it. Why are you slandering me and indiscriminately threatening me with my familyâs properties? I donât know where Jasmine is. Do you think I can make someone vanishe With a slap, Jenny whipped Harperâs face to the side. She widened her eyes and gritted her teeth in anger. âYouâre still denying it, huh? Youâd better be so stubborn when your parents get down on their knees before me to apologize!â
you. Youâre the poor student who needed financial aid She then glanced at Madeline, who was supporting Harper, narrowing her eyes. âI remember yo in Jasmineâs high school class.
Are you an accomplice?â
Her eyelids twitched, and she spat resentfully, âBorn with a low background, with the character to match!â
