Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 168 Dragging Them to Hell

Upon hearing that she intended to ask Oswaldo for the money, Zachary shook his head repeatedly. "Irene, I-I will figure something out. Please, don't tell my family."

"Of course," Irene replied with a slight smile. "After all, you're a regular here. Just make sure the money is transferred to my account on time, and I won't make things difficult for you. We're still friends."

"Can I leave now?" Zachary asked.

"Of course, Mr. Montgomery. Are you planning to just walk out like this? Someone, take Mr. Montgomery to bathe and change his clothes." Irene gestured, and Zachary had no choice but to follow the two men to clean up.

Irene made a large smile at the surveillance camera and gestured that everything was settled.

"Are you satisfied with this outcome?" Julian asked, holding Aurora in his arms.

"I am satisfied with your arrangements, but now that the fire has been stoked, I want to add fuel to the fire to make things even worse."

Aurora's smile was radiant. The old grudges would have been enough, but last night, Ivy had tried to seduce Julian. Everything was instigated by Genevieve, and Aurora had no intention of letting Zachary off easily. She wanted to drag them all to hell.

"What do you plan to do?" Julian asked, noticing her lingering dissatisfaction as he lazily twirled her hair with his fingers.

"Do you know what my grandfather hates the most?" Aurora asked.

"What?"

"Compulsive gamblers who take on crippling debts. It's said that my great-grandfather lost everything to gambling, which led to the ruin of his family. My grandfather has despised gambling since he was a child, so no one in the Montgomery family dares to gamble. Even if Zachary usually misbehaves outside, he absolutely avoids gambling. If he gambles, Grandpa will be furious. He wouldn't just be barred from the company, and he'd be ostracized from the Montgomery family for life," Aurora said calmly.

"Now, Zachary is in need of money. If someone tempts him into heavy gambling and he accrues more debt, then..." Julian didn't finish his sentence, but they both understood.

Zachary's life would be ruined, not to mention Oswaldo's reaction. Once he succumbed to a gambling addiction, he would be finished.
