“Trust me, Belinda. I’ll be sure to win it all back!” Terrence was in a stubborn state. He ignored Belinda, who had left, and held onto Casper’s arm instead. “Don’t run away again this time. As long as you give me money, I’ll be able to win it back!”

Casper sighed inwardly. Yet, to make sure that the plan would work, he promised Terrence, “No problem. I’ll help you to win everything back. We’ll make Mrs. Clauder see you in a different light!”

Casper led Terrence away, and they left together. Before entering the elevator, Casper glanced at the door of Terrence’s home. In the end, Belinda appeared at the entrance. She looked at them worriedly.

Casper returned her look, his gaze telling her not to worry. He had promised Giselle’s mother to settle this, after all.

The six of them could not fit into a single car. Hence, Gunther and Casper called a taxi instead. They let Terrence and the other gunmen head back first.

“Why did you bring this gambling addict along?” Gunther asked, confused.

“I had no choice. He’s my relative, so I can’t turn a blind eye to his condition. I will help him and also settle my scores with the underground circles of Horington,” Casper replied.

Gunther spat out the dogstail grass he was chewing on. “I don’t think that’s a good idea. People who get addicted to gambling usually find it very difficult to quit gambling. Did you see how he acted? He’s really addicted.”

“No, he’s not a serious gambling addict. There’s an even worse gambling addict staying in my base,” said Casper.

Gunther moved his fingers and pulled his shades down his nose bridge. “Don’t tell me that person is someone who cheats at gambling? What do you plan to do tonight? Use that man to earn money from the gambling resort?”

“Why not?” Casper shot back.

“Well, it depends on which gambling resort you’re going to. If it’s a big one, then it’s going to be tricky. If you get caught cheating, they will chop your limbs off. You called us here to prepare for a fight?”

Casper shook his head. “No. I called you all here to prevent the gambling resort from getting violent once they lose too much money.”

Gunther wanted to ask further, but the taxi had already arrived. They shut their mouths as soon as they got in the taxi as it was not a good idea to continue their discussion there.
