Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 91: Scandal: Developments 2
As soon as Rosa left the room and the door was quietly closed, Axel shifted his attention to his father. "It's time for you to answer my question." Axel calmly requested: "What did you call me here for? If there's something you need to teach or tell me, just be straightforward." "It's commendable that you can still pretend to be innocent in front of me." Mr. Smith suddenly shouted loudly, startling Axel: "Do you know how serious you have caused, Axel?" "I don't understand what you're talking about," Axel replied slyly, continuing to play dumb. It seemed like acting was Axel's forte. "If there's something, please just say it directly; no beating around the bush; it's a waste of both our time." Mr. Smith knew that Axel was deliberately doing this to make him angry and lose control, so he didn't try to argue or accuse Axel anymore. Instead, Mr. Smith gave a straightforward order. "What's going on with the rumors about you spreading on social media and news websites? Explain quickly.

In the elevator, Axel received a call from John. "What's up, John?" Axel calmly inquired. "Axel, the situation has worsened," John urgently reported. "GDP's stock price has plummeted significantly, and all the collaborative projects are being requested to be postponed. Investors are eager for you to provide an explanation regarding this matter. They state that they won't accept a leader involved in such a serious ethical violation, especially one linked to a married woman." "I understand," Axel responded nonchalantly. "Thank you for informing me." "So, what's your plan now?" John asked, concerned. "The board of directors will undoubtedly summon you for a meeting." "That summoning probably won't happen," Axel asserted. "Why not?" John inquired curiously. "I just finished talking to the Chairman of Smith," Axel announced. "In that case, how did the conversation go?" John was genuinely surprised by the swift developments. Less than a day had passed since the rumors had erupted, a
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 93: Scandal: Climax 1
As soon as she left the apartment building where Axel lived, Amelia drove straight to the hospital, where her aunt Lena worked."What brings you here, Amelia? Are you not feeling well?" Mrs. Lena asked in surprise and concern when she saw Amelia enter her office."Hello, Aunt." Amelia quickly got to the main, urgent, and important issue: "I came here because there is an urgent matter that needs your help.""What is it, Amelia?" Mrs. Lena asked anxiously, noticing the distressed and worried expression on her niece's face. "Please stay calm and tell me.""This is related to Axel," Amelia began, but she was immediately interrupted by Mrs. Lena. "If you're talking about the scandal, there's nothing to worry about. Those malicious rumors will eventually disappear over time," Mrs. Lena stated objectively. "Axel often gets involved in these trivial matters." "This time is more serious than previous ones, and the likelihood of Axel being negatively affected by this scandal is very high," Am

"What did you just say? How did Axel agree?" Amelia asked in disbelief. She hoped that what she had heard wasn't true."I don't understand why you're reacting so dramatically. Is there something bothering you, or are you dissatisfied?" Instead of responding to Amelia's request to confirm, Mr. Smith expressed a condescending attitude towards his daughter's apparent lack of intelligence."You said Axel agreed willingly," Amelia exclaimed, her face showing deep shock at the news. "That can't be true, can it? You're joking, right?""Unfortunately, no," Mr. Smith emphasized, his stern expression at this moment quite detestable. "Axel willingly accepted my orders. He's smart and knows when to comply. So, there's no need for you to be surprised by Axel's decision.""I don't believe it," Amelia vehemently denied. "You must be lying. This can't possibly be happening." Amelia believed that Mr. Smith was saying this to deceive her, perhaps to make her give up her intention."Believe it or not, t
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 95: Scandal: Climax 3
Two days have passed since the conversation between Axel and Mr. Smith, and today, Axel received a new notification from his father. There would be a party hosted by Taylor, and he was requested to prepare himself to attend. After ending the phone call with Mr. Smith, Axel turned his attention to John, who had been in the room with him for a while. "Axel, what's the purpose of Taylor organizing this event?" John was curious to know. "According to my father, it's to commemorate the founding day of the Taylor Corporation," Axel casually replied. "Do you really think it's that simple?" "No," Axel affirmed firmly. "Could it be related to you and your scandal?" John expressed his concern. "I know what you're thinking, John," Axel acknowledged. "And I agree with your inference." "So, how do you plan to deal with this?" "It depends on our preparation," Axel emphasized. "So, John, how far have we come with that?" "It's all set," John replied, calming Axel's anxiety and tension. "And
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 96: Scandal: Climax 4
When Axel appeared at the hotel with John, he noticed that there were many invited guests at the party, including journalists. It was clear that Taylor's family had prepared meticulously for this important and grand event. Standing near the entrance area, Axel happened to glance in Rosa's direction and saw her looking cheerful, engrossed in conversation with her friends. Rosa's confidence and arrogance at the evening party today annoyed Axel greatly. He really didn't want to confront or even speak to Rosa. Just as Axel was looking away, Rosa noticed him. Rosa quickly bid farewell to a few of her friends, then excitedly approached Axel, who was standing with John. Axel didn't notice Rosa approaching him, but John did. John immediately issued a warning to Axel. "It seems that before the storm hits tonight, you won't get the peace you desire, Axel. We've just set sail, and there's already a strong wind blowing." "What do you mean by that?" Axel wondered, finding John's words rather cr
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 97: The scandal: end 1
It is not beyond Axel's expectations; with every step he took, he drew the attention of those around him. Most of them gossip about his scandal. Ignoring the whispered conversations around him, Axel made his way to his group of friends."Do you think provoking Rosa was a wise move, Axel?" John asked as he followed Axel. "Not to mention, you revealed your intentions to her.""I did it intentionally," Axel admitted."Why?" John still doesn't understand Axel's purpose in doing so."I wanted to gauge Rosa's reaction before we took action," Axel explained."And do you think we got a positive result?" John asked further."As you can see, Rosa is quite resolute and adept at withstanding pressure," Axel casually concluded."It seems like that could be a hindrance for us in getting Rosa to confess, doesn't it?" John expressed his concern."Not exactly." Axel confidently said, "While I may not make Rosa worried enough to reveal any vulnerabilities, I know how to deal with her.""Oh, what's that
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 98: The scandal: end 2
"Everything I've said is the truth. Through this event tonight, I want to clarify the malicious rumors targeting Axel. I hope everyone will discern right from wrong and refrain from engaging in online violence against Axel and that unfortunate woman." Rosa spoke humbly, bowing her head as if seeking the crowd's favor. Her noble act both impressed and moved the audience. However, some saw through Rosa's performance, viewing her as an adept and hypocritical manipulator. To be honest, Axel admired Rosa's idea. The story she presented was compelling and convincing. However, there was one thing Axel despised: Rosa's audacity to insult and belittle Daisy to elevate herself. It was truly despicable, and Axel was confident that Rosa deserved the retribution he had prepared for her. Seeing that the majority of people were leaning towards Rosa, Mr. Taylor used this as an opportunity to proceed with the next step of the plan. "As a father, I have full trust in my future son-in-law, Axel Smith

"How are you?" Rosa asked when she saw Mrs. Mia's pale face.Mrs. Mia couldn't say anything when suddenly the police appeared."Rosa Taylor and Mia Wilson, you both are under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder. Please come with us," declared the stern police officer."We haven't done anything!" Mrs. Mia immediately denied the accusation, while Rosa was still trying to grasp the situation."What you said has been recorded—enough evidence to charge you both before the law," Amelia arrogantly proclaimed, holding up a recording device for them to see."Please come with us," the police officer requested a second time."I haven't done anything wrong." Mrs. Mia continued to deny the accusation as she was led away by the police.It was only then that Rosa realized she was being arrested. Not wanting to go to jail, Rosa used her strength to push the police officer and run out of the coffee shop. The police officer chased after her, and unfortunately, something terrible happened. While runn
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 109: Forgiveness, reunion
At that moment, from out of nowhere, an older man appeared, leading his 10-year-old son. They pushed through the crowd in front of the emergency room. As soon as they saw the lifeless body, the man grabbed his son's hand and ran towards it, then hugged the lifeless body and cried out."My wife! How could you leave me and our son so early?"The man's voice trembled as he cried, while the child sobbed loudly. The cries jolted Axel awake, and he raised his blank face to look at the man hugging the lifeless body. The man also looked back at Axel, both wearing expressions of indescribable astonishment."Who are you, and why were you crying for my wife?" A man asked in confusion."What do you mean? Your wife?" Axel's words left the man equally baffled. What was going on here? He suddenly felt disoriented."Mommy, please don't leave me." The voice of a child caught Axel and the man's attention. Upon realizing that the child was not Henry, Axel's confusion deepened. So, that wasn't Daisy. Axe
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 108: Axel gives up?
"Why would you speak of your mother like that?" Daisy scolded. "It's utterly uncalled for. If your mother heard what you said, she would undoubtedly be heartbroken.""You don't know anything, so just stay quiet," Axel snapped in anger.Daisy was taken aback by Axel's reaction, but she quickly regained control of the situation."It's true; I don't know anything about you," Daisy admitted. "We've never truly understood each other, and our views have never aligned. Anyway, your attitude towards your mother is a matter between you and her, unrelated to mine. Therefore, you don't have to be impatient with me.""My mother is dead," Axel finally revealed, thinking that Daisy didn't understand his earlier statement, leaving Daisy shocked and skeptical."Daisy, you've been deceived." Feeling the tension in the room, Amelia hurriedly explained, "My mother and Axel passed away. Axel was just seven years old at the time, and I was twelve. The woman named Mia is my stepmother, my father's second w
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 107: Daisy meets her mother again
That day, it was raining heavily. Despite the kind advice from the neighbors, Axel remained outside, standing in the pouring rain, waiting for Daisy to open the door. Axel's determination earned him the respect of many, but it also stirred feelings of sympathy.Inside her room, Daisy could hear and know everything that was happening outside. However, she had made up her mind not to waver.After enduring six hours of heavy rain, Axel finally collapsed. Kind neighbors took him into their home and took care of him when he had a high fever.The next day, in a daze, Daisy suddenly jolted awake upon hearing an announcement from the neighbor."Daisy, your husband has a fever."Many hours passed. Axel was still unconscious, and his fever was quite severe.Daisy, feeling perplexed, was inside her room. She was genuinely concerned about Axel's condition and wanted to personally take care of him, but she lacked the courage to step out and check on him. Daisy wasn't a coward; she was just too stu
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 106: Daisy absolutely refused to return
"Daisy, we can.""Henry, we're going home." Daisy interrupted Axel with an absolute command."I don't want to." Henry stopped chewing and looked directly at Daisy, stubbornly refusing."Why not? What's your reason?" Daisy impatiently demanded."I want to go to Cha Axel's home," Henry honestly admitted."Henry, I've told you," Daisy reminded him, trying to control her emotions. She was on the verge of losing her temper. Meeting Axel had left Daisy confused and her emotions unstable."I don't want to," Henry shouted suddenly, accusing Daisy. "You lied to me. Dad Axel is not too busy with work. You didn't bring me here for the safety of either of us. I don't know why you took me away from Axel's father's house, but you lied to me.”Daisy wasn't surprised that Henry easily discovered her lie. Henry was a smart and perceptive child. Daisy had anticipated this, but she hadn't expected Henry's reaction to be so determined and forceful. Daisy had hurt her son's feelings, and she knew it, but
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 105: Thanks to his son's fateful call, Axel found Daisy
"Hello." The person speaking to Axel was a woman. "Are you the guardian of this boy?""Yes, that's right. I'm Henry's father. What happened, and who are you?" Axel tried to stay calm while gathering information about the situation."The boy had an accident and is currently in the hospital. I'm a nurse at the hospital," the woman reported on Henry's condition. "We need the boy's guardian to come here."Hearing about an accident, Axel felt a chill run down his spine, his heart pounding with fear. He was afraid something terrible had happened.“How is my son?” Axel asked nervously."It's nothing serious; the boy has only minor injuries and lost a little blood. His condition has improved now," the nurse reassured Axel.Thankfully, Henry was safe and sound. Axel silently thanked God."Which hospital is he in? I'll come right away," Axel urgently asked, already getting ready to leave."He's in Hospital K, in the town of Suna.""I understand, thank you," Axel requested. "Please pass the phon
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 104: Axel frantically searches for Daisy
After a while, Axel was engulfed in despair, but suddenly the power of love surged within him. So Axel resolved to take action instead of sitting in self-pity. He also knew he couldn't do it alone, and he had some wonderful friends. Without hesitation, Axel immediately called for help from everyone."John, please help me," Axel choked out over the phone. "I really don't know what to do right now."John was at home, enjoying the weekend with Grace as a loving couple. Today, John decided not to answer any calls, both work-related and personal. However, when the caller was Axel and he kept calling incessantly, John answered the phone."What's wrong, Axel? What's happening? First, calm down," John gently reassured Axel while trying to understand Axel's situation. According to John, whenever Axel called him, it was usually for something very important or urgent."Daisy, she's gone," Axel pleaded in agony. "Help me find her, please.""What happened? Why did Daisy disappear?" John was a bit
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 103: Daisy regains her memory and leaves
Daisy let out a sigh of relief when the person who arrived was not Axel. It was the doctor in charge of Daisy's treatment and the nurse responsible for monitoring her condition."Daisy, how do you feel?" the doctor asked with concern."My head is still a bit dizzy," Daisy replied honestly, then suddenly remembered something important. She anxiously asked, "How is my child? Is everything okay?""The baby is still safe. Please rest assured," the doctor reassured her. Daisy placed her hand on her belly, gently stroking it. She silently thanked God for protecting the unborn child. Up until now, Daisy had not fully recovered from the shock of Rosa's audacious actions. What would have happened if Rosa had actually pulled the trigger? Daisy might have died, and her unborn child as well. Just thinking about it sent shivers down her spine, instilling fear and anger within her. Daisy was sure that Rosa would have to pay for her actions. She believed that."Where is your husband?" the doctor inq
Billionaire's Crazy Bet Chapter 102: Daisy is threatened
Rosa showed her determination as she looked at Daisy with sharp eyes. Suddenly, Daisy wished someone would appear to stop Rosa. But if her wish didn't come true, she would have to face Rosa's madness and danger on her own."Rosa, listen to me: What you're doing is a crime, and you'll go to jail if you kill someone. You should stop before it's too late," Daisy calmly warned Rosa. "If I scream, you'll definitely get caught.""I don't care," Rosa insolently declared. "I just want Axel to suffer for what he did to me. And what will make Axel suffer the most is losing you. Whether you die or disappear, it's the same for me. I'll give you a chance: leave Axel forever, and your life will be spared. But don't play games with me. If you leave and then come back, I'll kill Axel. I promise you that.""You're not allowed to touch Axel," Daisy angrily retorted."That entirely depends on you," Rosa arrogantly said. "If you dare to defy me, continue staying with Axel. I'll kill Axel and make you liv
