Chapter 113: Setting up a Scheme at the Poker Table

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Aston was excited. He hurriedly reached out to hold Scarlet in his arms, no longer as indifferent and cold as he was earlier. He exclaimed with a smile, “I’ll hold you to your word!”

Soon, under Scarlet’s guidance, Aston parked in front of a high-end club called the Opulence.

As soon as he entered, he saw a magnificent plaque with a golden border hung in the middle of the lobby, with the words ‘Opulence Is Eternal’ written on it. There were people leaving and entering the lobby, all flushed with excitement and clamoring incessantly. “Today, I must show off my skills and win big!” The clubhouse was obviously extraordinary.

Aston wasn’t familiar with this place because he didn’t live in this city. But Scarlet knew her way around and soon brought him to a hidden elevator where she pressed the button for the fifth basement.

As soon as the elevator door opened, he was greeted with a dazzling gilded door and two bellboys opening the door respectfully, revealing an extremely spacious, crowded, and boisterous hall.

Only then did Aston realize that this was actually a crowded underground gambling den.

This was naturally a prohibited practice. But this club was powerful enough to secretly set up such a large and extremely obscure den, making it difficult for investigations to take place.

Aston instantly seemed very interested. But of course, his main purpose tonight was not to gamble but for those two tempting beauties.

“Why did you bring me here? Those two women don’t seem like people who would appear in such a place.” Aston looked at Scarlet sullenly.

“Aston, don’t be impatient. Come with me first.” Scarlet took Aston’s hand and led him to a card table in a corner.

There were several players seated at the card table, and a bunch of other players were surrounding them and watching the fun.

“Hahahaha! William Carter, you’re out of luck today. It’s not even nighttime yet, but you’ve already lost all your money?”

“Can you still go on? If you have no more money, leave quickly. Stop hogging the seat and wasting my time! I want to play a few more games!” another poker player chimed in in annoyance.

There was a middle-aged man sitting opposite Aston with a pale face. He had lost all his chips.

Facing the crowd’s constant urging and the heavy loss of his chips, the middle-aged man was reluctant to give up. So he gritted his teeth, took out a diamond bracelet from his pocket, and placed it on the table. “This is a fine bracelet that my wife spent close to eighty grand on. Now… I’ll sell it for forty-five grand. Anyone who wants it can take it!”

“William Carter, you must have stolen this bracelet from your wife. You’re going to be in trouble when you go home!” someone teased.

“Cut the crap. Forty-five thousand dollars, does anyone want it?” William ignored these remarks and simply looked at the people around him with reddened eyes.

The diamond bracelet was beautiful and obviously of good quality.

However, this place was a gambling den after all, not a jewelry store or an auction. The bracelet wouldn’t fetch a high price.

“This bracelet seems mediocre, and you took it at the last minute too. Who knows if it’s real or not. I’ll give you fifteen hundred if you’re selling it,” one of the players said with disdain after taking a look at the bracelet.

“That’s… too little. I bought it for close to eighty grand! Forget it. I’ll sell it to you for thirty grand!” William said, gritting his teeth.

“Fifteen grand at most. Take it or leave it. If you don’t want to sell, get lost with your bracelet,” the other person said impatiently.

Someone at the side chimed in, “It’s just a lousy bracelet. You’re going to suffer a huge loss by paying fifteen grand!”

“Exactly. This thing should fetch less than five grand.”

“Okay! You can have it.” William made up his mind and shoved the bracelet to him.

The other person was quick to toss 15,000 dollars worth of chips to him after accepting the bracelet.

At the side, Scarlet was staring wide-eyed at the beautiful bracelet. She sighed regretfully after the person stowed the bracelet in his pocket.

“Did you bring me here to stare at other people’s things? We’re not here because you want me to buy you that bracelet, right?” Aston questioned hostilely.

Scarlet snapped back to her senses and shook her head hurriedly. She whispered to Aston, “No, no, how could that be possible? Aston, look at the middle-aged man who sold the bracelet. His name is William Carter, Cheyenne and Charlotte Carter’s father. I heard that he’s been indulging in gambling lately and has lost a lot of money.

“And Aston, did you realize that everyone at this table is obviously in cahoots? Only that fool William Carter still isn’t aware. At this rate, he’ll keep losing until he has nothing left.”

Aston nodded. Outsiders tended to have a clearer view of the situation. He hadn’t stood here for too long and could already tell that something was fishy. Yet William Carter, who was involved in the situation, was completely unaware of it and was bent on recouping his losses.

However, how would that be possible?

Aston suddenly had an idea and immediately understood Charlotte’s words. “Are you… planning to have me help him after he loses?”

“Yes! After he loses it all, lend him some money. He will definitely continue to lose and then have no money to pay you back. At that point, he’ll have to get money from his daughters. But as far as I know, Cheyenne doesn’t have much money, so she definitely can’t pay for him. Since she can’t afford it, you’ll have every right to take his daughter as compensation! By then, it will be up to you to sleep with her as often as you’d like,” Scarlet said with a sinister smile.

At the thought of that scene, Aston immediately became excited. But he was still rational enough and asked in doubt, “What if she doesn’t agree?”

“If she doesn’t agree, she’ll have to give you back the money immediately. But can she afford it? She’ll have no choice but to agree! Besides, she’s not a good person anyway. Who knows how many men she’s slept with? Otherwise, how could she become the general manager of the Brilliance Corporation? Don’t worry. She will definitely agree!” Scarlet guaranteed with certainty.

Hearing this, Aston stopped worrying and narrowed his eyes to look at William, whose eyes were bloodshot. It was as if he could already see the scene of Cheyenne having no choice but to submit to him unwillingly. The corners of his mouth curled into a sinister smile. He was bent on getting what he wanted.
