Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 255

Chapter 255 Atonement

The day Richard went to court, I took a big gamble with Simon.

Skyline International Corporation had grown like crazy over the years. To the world, I looked like this super ambitious businessman. But honestly, Skyline's expansion wasn't my top priority. Sure, I had the means to win this bet, but if something unexpected happened and I lost, I wouldn't be scared.

I didn't see it coming when Faris brought Emily along.

It wasn't losing that scared me; it was Emily seeing me lose.

I asked her, "Are you afraid of me having nothing?"

Emily shook her head, really firmly.

"I'm not afraid. You won't have nothing; you'll still have me," she said.

In that moment, I felt like even if I lost everything, it wouldn't matter. As long as I had her, I'd be rich enough.

But I still won that bet.

The day Oliver got wasted, I walked into the bar's DJ booth.

The DJ, wearing headphones, saw me and waved with a grin.

"Ethan," he said.

I took the headphones off his head and said, "Take a break, I'll take over."

I put on the headphones and started DJing.

The neon lights flashed to the beat, and the crowd on the dance floor moved with the rhythm.

Keeping the beat, I squinted and looked outside, spotting Emily and Bella at the bar. They had their backs to me and didn't see me.

Shifting my gaze, I saw the door of a private room.

"Oliver is drunk," the DJ said.

Following his direction, I saw Oliver, drunk and being helped out of the bar.

Oliver was just behind the bar, so Emily and Bella probably didn't see him.

I handed the headphones back to the DJ and called Dennis outside the bar.

"Oliver is drunk and being taken out. Follow them for me; I've got things covered here," I said.

"Got it," Dennis replied.
