The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 70

Hearing Conor’s words, Casey laughed and said, “It is so simple. Ask me to go with you the next time when you go to the underground casino. I will help you to beat him.”

Both Conor and Morgan opened their eyes widely, feeling it impossible.

“Mr. Davis, although the underground casino is small, their leader is call Gambling King. I have been there twice with Conor and have seen his awesomeness. There may be few people in J City who can beat him in gambling. Even if you go with us, it might not be possible to beat him.” Morgan said.

“Yes. He is really good at gambling, and has an amazing mental calculating ability, which I appreciate very much so I want him to work for me. When the underground world of J City is unified in the future, we will need someone like him to be in charge of finance, which is an important part.” Conor said.

Casey looked at them, a little speechless, and he said, “To be honest, my gambling skills might not be worse than him.”

Both Morgan and Conor felt doubtful. They knew Casey was very capable, but it was impossible for him to be good at everything, so they both thought Casey was bragging.

Seeing they didn’t believe him, Casey felt too lazy to explain, and he said directly, “Call on me the next time when you go to that casino. I will give you a show.”

Both of them nodded and left here together.

The next morning, Hunter went alone to the KTV. He had made an appointment with Black Wolf to come to take Edith away this morning.

He made several phone calls to Black Wolf last night, but he didn’t answer, which made he think that Black Wolf had definitely got Edith and was busy in having sex with her, who had no time to answer him.

Although he felt uneasy once thinking of the appearance of Edith lying under Black Wolf, he didn’t care when he thought Edith would be his woman later.

But what made him feel strange was that he didn’t see any subordinate of Black Wolf after entering the KTV.

He asked about the situation from the manager, and then he was shocked with his eyes widened.

“What did you say? Black Wolf was killed yesterday?” Hunter exclaimed.

“Be quiet. Don’t speak it out in public.” The manager gave him a stare.

“Who was killed?” Hunter asked.

“Don’t ask about it. Anyway, from now on, there is not Black Wolf in J City.” After speaking, the manager ignored Hunter.

Hunter swallowed, thinking that Casey and Edith were so lucky. The job was about to be done when Black Wolf suddenly had an unexpected misfortune.

He naturally didn’t think Black Wolf was killed by Casey, but by some adversary of Black Wolf.

“Damn it! Casey really had a good luck. Well, just leave him aside for a while. Recently there is an important project in the company. After dealing with it, I will definitely fix him.”

Hunter didn’t think much, and he didn’t care about Black Wolf’s death. After all, he had no friendship with Black Wolf, but just temporary cooperation.

He didn’t know if Black Wolf had the opportunity to cross him up, he would have come to the same end as Black Wolf.

After a few days, Conor sent an SMS to Casey, “Tonight we will go to the casino to have the last try. If we fail again, I will abandon the idea.”

After receiving the SMS, Casey instantly glanced at Edith by his side and asked cautiously, “Well, I have something to deal with tonight and may come back a little late. Do you agree?”

Edith hesitated and said, “Just go. You don’t need to ask me.”

“You are my wife, so I need to ask for your approval.” Casey said.

“OK, I agree.” Edith answered, but she felt somehow a little reluctant.

In the past, she and Casey didn’t interfere with each other. No matter what Casey did, she would never ask.

However, she suddenly wanted to know what Casey was going to do this time. He said that he had something to deal with, but he had no job. What did he want to do?

Was he going to brothel? A bold idea suddenly came to Edith’s mind.

She had learned from Diana that normally if a man said he would go out at night without explaining where to go, it was very possible for him to go out for entertainment.

Was Casey also going to look for entertainment? Edith suddenly realized that she had never allowed Casey to touch her during these years after their marriage.

Casey was a normal man after all. Since Edith didn’t allow him to touch her, he had to find somewhere to give vent to his sexual desire.

Thinking of this, Edith increasingly believed that Casey was going to brothel tonight.

She bit her lips and clenched her little fists tightly and angrily.

Nevertheless, she shouldn’t blame him for that, because it was her who didn’t allow him to touch her after all. But why did she feel so sad once thinking of this?

“Do as you like and I won’t interfere with you.” Edith suddenly said, then stood up with grievance and went back to the bedroom.

Casey was confused, not knowing what was wrong with Edith. She was quite OK just now, but why did she suddenly seem to be greatly wronged?

He didn’t think much, just thinking that the memories of something unhappy came back to Edith.

At 8: 00 p.m., Casey went out from home. When he went out, Edith deliberately went out to have a look at him, which made him feel very strange.

Morgan and Conor had already been waiting for him near the casino, so he immediately called a taxi after going out of the neighborhood.

After a while, he arrived the appointed place and met Morgan and Conor, who went together with them to a nearby amusement arcade.

Entering the amusement arcade, Morgan directly took both of them to the second floor. There was a person guarding the stairway intended to stop them, but when he saw Morgan taking the lead, he was so scared that he immediately got out of the way.

The underground casino mentioned by Conor was on the second floor of the amusement arcade. If ordinary people want to go in, they had to ask their acquaintances to bring them in, but celebrities like Morgan naturally didn’t have to.

After all, everyone knew that as long as Morgan wanted, he could destroy the casino within several minutes.

The space on the second floor was fairly large with all kinds of equipment. There were already many people around here with chips in hand, shouting and wrangling, very abustle and astir.

Morgan went to the place for chip exchange, and said to the attendant, “I want to see your boss. Please ask him to come out.”

The attendant glanced at the three of them and said, “Sorry, our boss doesn’t receive visits today.”

“Just tell him that Morgan comes to find him.” Morgan said with widely opened eyes, as if he could destroy the place at any time.

The attendant was so frightened that he went in quickly to ask.

After a while, he came out, looked at them cautiously and said, “Our boss said that you have visited him for free twice, and if you want to see him this time, you must pay a visit fee of 500,000 dollars or win the same amount in our casino. Our boss won’t see you otherwise.”

“What!” Morgan opened widely his eyes and grabbed the attendant by the neck.

“Sir, even if you use violence, our boss won’t see you. Here are chips of 10,000 dollars. As long as you can win 500,000 dollars with these chips, our boss will come out.” The attendant said with fear.

Casey gave Morgan a look to motion him to let go. Morgan released his hand in bad mood.

“Well, then we will win 500,000 dollars with these chips as your boss said.” Casey said with smile.

“Casey, are you crazy? It is very difficult to win 500,000 dollars with only 10,000 dollars. Besides, maybe we will lose the 10,000 dollars within a second.”

“Yes, even if we can win 500,000 dollars, maybe the sun will have already risen.” Conor said.

Casey gave the two of them a glimpse and said coldly, “Stop talking nonsense. Let’s take action separately to see who will win the most.”

After speaking, Casey took a chip of 10 dollars from the chips of 10,000 dollars and turned to win money.

“Casey, are you crazy? You have only taken 10 dollars!” Morgan shouted.

Conor shook his head and said, “Maybe he has watched too many TV dramas. Let’s think of ways to win money. He will definitely come back to ask us for more after losing the 10 dollars.”

After speaking, they both went to their gambling tables separately to win money.

The attendant glanced at the three of them with cold smile and said, “It’s so funny. If you can really win 500,000 dollars with only 10,000 dollars, then we don’t need to run the casino. You are so innocent. This place belongs to the Gambling King.”

He turned around and returned to the inner room, walking to a big fat man, saying, “Boss, they have taken the chips of 10,000 dollars to gamble.”

Fat Guy looked up and bust out laughing, saying, “It is so stupid of Morgan to have the idea of winning 500,000 dollars with only 10,000 dollars. He must be living in a dreamworld.”

“So he is. Based on their level, maybe they will lose all the money within ten minutes.”

“You said here come three of them. Who is the third person? Have we seen him before?” Fat Guy asked.

“Never before. But he seems to be a rookie without knowing anything about gambling. Don’t worry, boss.” The attendant answered.

Fat Guy nodded and said, “Go out to keep watch on them. Maybe they will lose all the money very soon. I will sleep for a while, so don’t disturb me if nothing important.”

The attendant nodded and got out of the room.

After about an hour, the attendant ran flustered into the room where Fat Guy was and then shouted with an anxious voice, “Boss, boss, something serious happened!”

Fat Guy was sleeping when he was suddenly scared by the attendant’s voice. He stared at the attendant and asked, “Damn it! Can you hold it down? I am so scared that I almost have a heart attack. What’s wrong? Does Morgan want to destroy my casino after losing all the money? Just tell him that even if he destroys my casino, I won’t see him.”

“No, it’s not so. The third person that Morgan has brought has won all the money of our casino with only 10 dollars. If you don’t go out, our casino will go bankrupt!”
