Chapter 1746

Author: Mizuki Sei
Harvey led the way, and both he and Renee soon arrived at a gambling table.

Renee just wanted to take a look, but a tall middle-aged man came up to her and said firmly, "You can't just watch here. It's rare for us to have a female guest, so you should go play one or two rounds."

Renee sized the man up. He was wearing a black suit and had a beard, and his gaze was sharp and dangerous. He looked like a gangster, but he didn't seem reckless. Renee figured he was from the administration part of the casino.

"That's the manager of Osk Casino, Victor Reed. He's good at gambling but is very vicious. Be careful," Harvey whispered to Renee.

"It's okay, I've faced many big shots in my life. This is nothing." Renee patted Harvey's shoulder reassuringly, then faced Victor and said confidently, "Sure. I managed to get in after spending 20 million dollars, so of course I'd like to have some fun. However... you're the only one I want to play against in this casino."

"You want to play against me?

    "You're pretty arrogant… but I like it. Well, what's your gaming chip? Let me know, then I'll decide if I want to play against you." Victor spread his hands smugly. "After all, I'm rich. Playing house is a waste of my time." "Didn't you verify my capital when I came in? Just use the money on my account as the gaming chip then. What do you think?" Renee leaned back in her chair and suggested generously.Her words made Victor's eyes brighten. He sat up straight and asked, "Are you sure?" "Of course. You froze my cash, so I can't break my word even if I wanted to." "Yeah, you're right." After a brief contemplation, Victor asked, "What about me then? What do you want from me? It doesn't really matter because you won't win, but I need to make it clear for the sake of the rules." "If I win, I don't want money—I just want to ask you a question, and you have to answer it honestly. What do you think?" Renee calmly revealed her request."You want to… ask a question?" Victor thought tha

    Renee had five cards. First, she played a card of three points, which was considered a very low card. Victor chuckled, then put down a card of seven points. Renee followed with a card of eleven points, then Victor submitted a card of thirteen points. It was clear that Victor was way ahead of Renee—his score was eight points higher than Renee's. The only way Renee could win at this point was if she had a Joker with her. If not, she would definitely lose."I'm sorry, I don't think you'll be able to break my streak this time." Victor put down a King and said wickedly, "Your 20 million dollars is only enough for one round. Do you want to continue?" Renee had only one card left with her, and it would decide the total points of her cards. Victor knew she couldn't have the Joker with her because he had modified those two cards. If Renee had any of the Jokers, he would be able to see it, and he hadn't seen them in her hand. "Don't be so sure of yourself." Renee smiled at Victor sweetly, the

    Victor immediately agreed to Renee's demands. If he kept fussing about that issue, he was afraid that his shameless tricks would be exposed. "Just ask me whatever you want. I'll tell you if I know," Victor answered cooperatively. Renee nodded and fished out Stefan's photograph. "Have you seen him?""Him?" Victor looked at the man in the photograph with an admiring gaze. "Isn't that Stefan Hunt, the president of Hunt Enterprise? I'm sure everyone in Beach City knows him. Aren't you asking the obvious?" "Yeah, anyone who watches TV or plays with their phone will know who Mr. Hunt is.""This woman asked such a boring question after so much trouble. I think she's here to wreck this place!"Like Victor, the other people gathered there teased and mocked her.Renee clenched her fists and suppressed her anger, explaining, "I mean, have you seen him here for the past three days?""The past three days..." Victor hesitated briefly, then shook his head. "No, there would have been an uproa

    "What are you trying to do?" Victor sneered. "Are you planning to make a scene?""Honestly, I don't want to make a big deal out of this, so I'm trying to negotiate with you. If you refuse to cooperate… then I might make a scene." Renee's eyes glittered dangerously. "I'll give you three seconds to honor your promise to me, or else there's going to be trouble... Three, two, one!" When she didn't receive any response from Victor, Renee turned over the gambling table, creating a mess. "Ladies and gentlemen, please leave. I've got something to discuss with Victor." One was not enough; Renee walked over to another gambling table and turned it over even though there were people there in the middle of a gambling game.Renee was being reckless, and Victor had no idea how to handle the situation. "Hey, do you have a death wish? Stop this right now! I don't want any bloodshed here!" Victor went to Renee and grabbed her wrist anxiously. "You brought this onto yourself, so there's no use blamin

    He must have given an order when the security guards had surrounded her and were trying to harm her. He was trying to protect her… that must be it!"What... are you talking about? I don't understand." Victor smiled awkwardly, looking confused."You know exactly what I'm talking about! You looked like you wanted to beat me up earlier, but now you're being humble and polite. You must have received an order from your superior..." Renee glanced at Victor's earphones and snatched them from him swiftly. Putting them on, she demanded, "Did you give an order and ask him not to hurt me? Who are you? How can you hide like this and refuse to face me?"Her only response was silence.Infuriated, she bellowed, "I don't care who you are, just come out and face me! What's the point of hiding like a coward? Can't we resolve our problems face-to-face? Stefan, I won't forgive you if it's you on the other end of this... You make a fool of me again and again; Do you think I won't get hurt or sad?" Desp

    Victor crossed his arms, saying respectfully, "Of course you can meet him. My boss admires your courage greatly and would like to befriend you."Renee was still a little weak, and her lips were pale as she sneered. "If your boss is who I think he is, then he's very pretentious!" Stefan and her had gone through so much; If he still wanted to play these childish games, she would never forgive him."Umm… that's between you and my boss. I don't know what happened since I'm just his subordinate." Victor smiled awkwardly and said, "I'll make an appointment for you if you really want to see my boss. Can you wait here?""Do I need to make an appointment?" Renee laughed bitterly, clenching her fists and faking a smile. "Sure, please help me make an appointment. Tell him that I'll chop off his head and kick it around like a ball if I don't see him in an hour."Victor swallowed, frightened by this seemingly elegant but violent woman. However, what shocked him even more was that his usually de

    Renee wanted him alive even if they were not a couple. She turned the doorknob, then swung open the door and screamed, "Stefan, you jerk! You finally come back, and you—"However, when she saw who was standing at the door, she was stunned. The man standing before her was stunned too."What... Why are you here? Is there anyone else with you?" Renee awkwardly looked behind him, then looked around.The man was awkward too. "No, it's… just me. Victor told me that you wanted to meet me, and I was happy because I thought… I thought you really wanted to see me!"Disappointment and sadness overwhelmed Renee, and she mumbled, "Not exactly." She had never planned on meeting him. Their relationship was ordinary, at most best friends or peers in the same field.Justin wore a long black windbreaker and scratched his head awkwardly. "You can't even lie to me and say you wanted to see me? We're comrades who fought for each other, you know!""When did we do that? I don't remember." Renee's tone

    It had been a long time since Renee and Justin last met, and Renee was surprised to bump into him here. Once she had calmed down, she suggested taking a tour of the large casino with him as her guide.Osk Casino was considered one of the top casinos in Beach City. Renee had heard about it but had not visited it or looked it up—she hadn't expected that Justin was the boss of the famous Osk Casino though. "It's good that you're a boss at such a young age. I thought the owner of this casino was an old man given this extravagance, decoration, and style." After seeing all the five floors of the building, Renee gave Justin a thumbs-up. Justin was three years younger than Renee, but he had achieved much more than her."Stop teasing me—my achievements are nothing compared to yours. Plus, I didn't gain this business. My grandpa set it up first, and I'm just enjoying its success." Justin smiled humbly."But as a Baldwin, you successfully established a large casino in Beach City where the Hunt

    Renee grinned, satisfied after a long rest. "Why didn't you sleep a bit longer? This bed is comfortable and fluffy." While talking, she behaved like a fish as she extended her limbs and rolled around in bed childishly. In comparison to her calmness and ease, Justin behaved gingerly and did not dare to move as he lay in bed."Do you have any idea what had happened? We aren't dreaming. We're lying in the same bed," Justin said.He was certain that Renee was not fully awake. It explained why she was that composed. Otherwise, any normal woman would get out of bed with a start and keep screaming if they found herself lying in a man's bed."I know!" Renee said. After having a great time rolling around, Renee faced Justin with her head on her arm while lying on her side. "I wanted to drink wine to say sorry to you guys last night, but your family drugged the wine. You drank the same wine when you tried to stop me. We were controlled by the drug and were locked up in this room. T

    Renee instantly understood what Justin meant by that. It turned out that the incident was just a part of the Baldwin family's plan. If she left, the Baldwin family would not easily let her off the hook.Justin still cared about her at a time like that, which moved her. "Thank you. You're great." Renee cried; she had no idea how to repay him. "You don't have to thank me. I'm not so great, either. I just hate that they always pester me." Justin purposely sounded relaxed. He finally calmed himself down as he casually grabbed some bandages to bandage his wound. Then, he lay in bed.He slept on one side of the bed and said to Renee, "It's late. You should rest early. This bed is large enough. If you don't mind, you can lie in bed too."The bed was large. It was more than enough even if Renee and Justin lay there."I…" Renee hesitated briefly before she finally got in bed. She trusted Justin. If he wanted to do something indecent to her, he would have long done that. He would no

    "I don't know how to tell you. I'm sure you can understand." Renee could not bring herself to say more because it was a humiliating privacy. She might as well keep it to herself."Let me guess…" Justin's gaze grew sharp as he went straight to the point. "The man in your story is Stefan, isn't it?" Silence washed over Renee as she kept her head bowed. It was a silent approval.Justin burst into reckless laughter, which was scary. He looked down at his cut wound and laughed pathetically. "This is why he could make you fall in love with him, and I couldn't. I'm too cultured compared to him.""Don't say that, Haze!"Seeing how defeated Justin was, Renee became uneasy. "It isn't written in the stars for us. Plus, I've fallen in love with Stefan a long time ago before I even got to know you. I also rely on him physically and psychologically. I can't control my feelings. It's not something we can change. We…" "Stop!" Heartbroken, Justin pushed away everything in front of him and s

    Time passed by. Gradually, the pain knocked some sense into Justin. He no longer wanted to take advantage of Renee."Let me get you some water." Renee had no idea what she could do for Justin. After some contemplation, she got to her feet and poured him a glass of water.Finally, she studied the room closely and found that it was a wedding room as Justin had mentioned. Everything was set up according to her preferences, which she had occasionally mentioned to Justin. For example, she loved keeping some ceramic ornaments on the bedside cabinet and hanging some seashell wind chimes at the windows. The entire room was painted in beige and green, which were her favorites, too. Beige gave a sense of warmth, while green gave a sense of gloominess. All of those details became the perfect wedding room for Renee.If everything went on smoothly, she would spend most of her time there, and he would be her life companion. Unfortunately, there were no ifs in the world.Renee handed the gla

    Renee covered her lips, her tone filled with disbelief. "I…cut myself." Justin leaned against the corner and frowned deeply. He was in deep pain."Why did you cut yourself?" Renee was scared out of her wits and grew more sober. In her panic, she threw herself at him and tried to stop his bleeding.Justin reacted aggressively as he waved his dagger and warned fiercely, "Get away from me! Don't touch me!" "I…" Renee paused, too afraid to act recklessly. She pointed at his wound and said, "I'm just worried about you. You're bleeding. It must hurt a lot. Why did you hurt yourself?" "It's better to be in pain!" Justin gnashed his teeth and said in agony, "The pain will knock some sense into me, so I won't act like an animal and lose control of myself.""I see…" Stunned, Renee was moved to tears. She understood why he cut himself. Surprisingly, he wanted to stay sober and not be controlled by the drug in the wine.He could have used her to satisfy his desire, and she would never b

    "You're playing with fire!" Justin leaned close to Renee's ears and said fiercely, "What do you think there is in the wine? Maybe I'm not someone who will take liberty on women, but I can't promise that the wine won't make me so." "So, you're saying that the wine…" Suddenly, Renee realized the wine was not as simple as she thought. She also understood why Rose had behaved in such a mysterious manner. "Stay…away from me!" Suddenly, she became frightened and wanted to keep some distance from Justin. She knew that people could not be trusted completely, especially under the effects of chemical reactions. Things would certainly get out of control. Justin probably did not want to do anything to her, but both of them would lose their minds under the effect of the wine and do something that would fill them with regret. The only way to prevent such an incident was to avoid each other."You want to stay away from me, but it's too late now. I'm no saint. I'm just a normal guy!"Just

    "I'm so thirsty!" The burning sensation of the wine made Renee thirsty. She wanted to drink some water.In the dark, she heard some rustling. The next second, something was on her lips. It seemed to be someone else's lips. She wondered if someone had secretly kissed her."Who are you?" Renee grabbed the person in front of her and interrogated angrily, "How dare you kiss me without my permission! Do you know who I am? I'll cut off your lips!""Let's see if you can do that or not." The man sounded dull and drunk, but he was also overbearing.Although Renee was drunk, she could discern who it was. She called out in the dark and tried to confirm her doubt. "Haze…?" "Yeah, it's me," Justin admitted, but he did not plan to let her go. He used a more overbearing manner and trapped her between him and the door."What do you want?" Renee panicked. She wanted to kick him away, but she did not resist when she learned that it was Justin. After she had done so many things to hurt him, s

    The servant walked forward with trepidation and helped Justin back to his room. Austin's eyes were dark. He whispered to his assistant, who nodded and immediately carried out his order.After two glasses of strong wine, Renee felt dizzy and could not stand steadily. "It's weird. Is this wine this strong? I just had two glasses of it, but I feel quite dizzy." It was hard for her to exit the hall. She could not stand properly, so she supported herself against the wall."Ms. Everheart, you didn't seem well. Let me help you to get some rest." Austin's assistant caught up to her and stood behind her. He even sounded respectful. "It's… fine. I can go back to my room." Renee waved; she didn't want to trouble others. Besides, she did not want others to see how miserable she was. She had assumed that she was good at drinking and would not get drunk, but it seemed like she had overestimated herself. After two glasses of wine, she became quite drowsy. She would not easily leave if s

    Renee blinked and smiled brightly at Justin, asking him, "Are you worried about me?" "No, I'm not worried about you!" Justin said angrily. "I don't want you to get killed here. I can't explain it to your brother and kids. It's hard to handle the three of them."He was not lying. Although he had befriended Quinton, Adie and Abby might make a scene there if they realized that Renee had drunk so much wine at the party. They were witty, always full of ideas.Hence, it was better not to cause trouble. Before they could make a scene and things get out of control, Justin must stop Renee. He wasn't worried about her at all. "So, you're not worried about me?" Renee's gaze turned dull as she sighed. "It looks like you didn't forgive me. So, I must drink this glass of wine." Something was wrong with Renee, or perhaps she just wanted to torture herself. It seemed like she insisted on drinking the wine. She swung off Justin's hand and gulped down the wine."You're out of your mind!" Justi
