Chapter 1772
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Chapter 1772 Give It Up Francesca frowned when she overheard that. D*mn, they still havenât given up on searching for me, huh? I bet theyâll feel really stupid if they ever find out that the woman theyâre looking for is right beside them. That being said⦠I canât believe how petty that guy is. All I did was use him a little to escape that stupid place. I didnât even hurt him. Must he keep chasing me like that? Urgh! What do I do now?
Francesca knew that if she went to Casino Inferno again and bumped into those men, they would most likely recognize her.
She thought long and hard before she hailed a cab to go to a crowded street where stalls were abundant. There, she bought a mini-skirt and put on a wig and some make-up. She slipped back to Casino Inferno after that.
She stashed her other outfit in a backpack so that it would be easier for her to change back into it.
The hot lady disguise she had on at the moment was completely different from the sexy woman she was a few days ago. It also differed from her usual self, so it was unlikely that the other men would recognize her.
The incident from that night didnât slow business down for Casino Inferno. It made business even better instead.
The night had just fallen, but the place was already packed.
The opening show for the night featured a blonde dancing beside a stripper pole. The men were so excited that they whistled at her and danced to the music.
Francesca snuck past the crowd and slipped backstage before making her way to the modelâs fitting room.
Beautiful ladies were changing their outfits and sharing juicy gossip at the time.
âIs it just me, or are there fewer auctions these days? Itâs all just dancing and performing.â
âWell, a few days ago, a girl from C Nation made a mess at the casino, so the owner no longer has the guts to sell random woman.â
âThat makes sense. Itâd be bad if another skilled fighter shows up and offends the VIPs here.â
âExactly! That woman didnât just piss the owner and the clients off. She also offended a mysterious guest. Weâre lucky that the guy didnât come after us for it. If he had, Casino Inferno would be closed down.â
âYou know, that woman really is something else. I was witnessing everything from the side, and my heart almost jumped out of my chest from all the excitement.â
âShe is powerful. I mean, she can fight, has good instincts, and is gutsy. My gosh, sheâs my idol.â
âHahaha, I look up to her too.â
Francesca listened to the others talking about her and was a little flattered to hear all that.
She was about to head over and ask them some questions when two burly bodyguards showed up with the owner.
They were there to talk to the girls as well.
Francesca hid behind the closet right away and listened closely.
âShe was already unconscious when we met her, and we never got to talk to her, so we donât know much about her.â
âWho helped her change her clothes that day?â
âI did, but she wasnât wearing anything unusual. She had a patientâs outfit on and didnât have any accessories.â
âA patientâs outfit⦠So, she came directly from the hospital?â asked one of the bodyguards after hearing that.
âYes,â replied the owner anxiously. âShe didnât have any papers on her when my men brought her over. That was why I felt safe auctioning her off. I never imagined that she would attack Mr. Lindbergâ¦â
âWho brought her over from the hospital? And which hospital are we talking about here? Go get the guy over right now!â
âYes, sir.â
The owner left with the bodyguards after that.
Francesca was going to leave when she overheard what the other two ladies whispered to one another.
âOh, that girl is doomed. She pissed off a VIP, so sheâll probably be dead soon.â
âWhy didnât you tell them the truth earlier?â
âHuh?â
âI know you took something that belonged to that woman.â
âWhat are you talking about? When have I everââ
âStop pretending. I caught you stealing. Seriously, these are not the kind of people you can afford to mess with.
Donât risk your life for some petty gains. Itâs not worth it, so just hand it over.â
âIâ¦â
The lady with a head of red hair hesitated, so her friend continued by saying, âI know you need the money, but that item isnât worth much anyway and canât be sold. Worse still, others will find it once you sell it off. Arenât you scared that youâll die a terrible death?âq
