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 everyone’s senseL

with a smile. The clattering sound of chips toppling
At the entrance stood a line of well–built 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 couldn’t even move an inch. “Mr. Jenkins, it’s my first time here, and I’m unfamiliar with this place. Are there any rules here?” 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, “Welcome, Mr. Caldwell
The comumotion left Jasmine startled. Only then did she realize that Wesley wasn’t 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. “What is this Grim Reaper doing in Accester?”
“Who is he?” a person asked.
“Wesley Jenkins. Don’t talk behind his back. He has a bad temper. If you offend him, he’ll hunt you down wherever you got another answered.
“Jeez. he’s so vindictive?” responded the other.
Overhearing the discussion, Garrett sneered, “He’s one horrible man. That’s it for now. I’ll leave first.”
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. “Make room.”
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 wasn’t 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 crowd’s 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. “Mr. Jenkins. Jasmine said softly, subconsciously inching closer to him,
However, Wesley didn’t give her any chance to throw herself into his arms. He pointed to a seat. “Sit down.”
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, “Get me 1 million dollars worth of chips.”
The security immediately did as told. An attendant looked at Jasmine, mistaking her for Wesley’s woman “Miss, how many chips would you like to exchange?”
Jasmine’s lips twitched. To not playing”
Garrett reminded, “Once you sit down here, you’ll have to play?
Jasmine frowned.

“Give her 10 million dollars worth Wesley took off his sunglasses, revealing his harsh gaze. “If you lose everything, you’ll pay for it with your life” wasn’t something Jasmine couldn’t afford! She trembled, her face turning ghastly pale. “No, I can’t play! I don’t know how to play! Mr. Jenkins, did I offend you in some way! 1-1 can correct myself…”
She was on the verge of tears. This was akin to entering a lion’s den. Her guts were blue with remorse.
“Correct yourself?” Wesley looked at Jasmine, who almost collapsed in her seat, paralyzed with fear. “Well, do it
I do it in your ne
your next life.”
Sensing something, Garrett immediately ordered the game to begin, “Hurry! Deal the cards! Don’t ruin Mr. Jenkins mood!
Half an hour later, Jasmine cried so much her makeup was ruined, and her hands were quivering. Smoking. Wesley uttered, “Place y

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. “It seems like you’ll lose everything today. What should we do?”
There were no ships left before Jasmine. Wesley looked his finger, asking the attendant to give her another 10 million dollars inyclips.
“Teamt play anymore. I ashuis detrail” Jasmine’s voice had cracker

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, “Jasmine 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!”
Madeline looked calm “Don’t worry. It has nothing to do with us. We’re just here to provide clues”
Нет attention was directed to a woman on the other side, who was cursing at a neck man before her. “I can’t believe you’re having
bitch! How can you forget you have a wife? How much money did you spend on her? I want her to return everything!”
Harper was surprised and couldn’t help muttering, Jasmine’s character is so terrible. Her disappearance this time has exposed all her shameful acts. She’ll 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?”
Harper was chattering away when Seat and Jemmy Zook walked over.
Jenny looked condescendingly at Harper and said in a cold and menacing tone, “Don’t think I don’t know you’re 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, I’ll do whatever it takes to bring your family downl
Sean’s eyes darkened. “I won’t do anything to you because you’re younger than me. But if you don’t hurry and let Jasmine go. I promise you that your father won’t be able to bear the consequensors”
Harper’s chest heaved violently. I didn’t do it. Why are you slandering me and indiscriminately threatening me with my family’s properties? I don’t know where Jasmine is. Do you think I can make someone vanishe
With a slap, Jenny whipped Harper’s face to the side. She widened her eyes and gritted her teeth in anger. “You’re still denying it, huh? You’d better be so stubborn when your parents get down on their knees before me to apologize!”
you. You’re the poor student who needed financial aid
She then glanced at Madeline, who was supporting Harper, narrowing her eyes. “I remember yo in Jasmine’s high school class. Are you an accomplice?”
Her eyelids twitched, and she spat resentfully, “Born with a low background, with the character to match!”
