Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 25

“What are you trying to do?” The man asked her with a hoarse voice.

Leah was afraid. She stuttered, “I’m just… I’m just trying to help you…”

“How can you help me?” The man chuckled and replied sarcastically, “No one dares to help me at this place.”

“I learned simple nursing in the past. I can help dress your wound. You are losing too much blood.” Leah calmed herself down. She looked into the man’s eyes after realizing he wasn’t acting hostile toward her.

The man said, “You are quite brave.” Yet, he didn’t reject her suggestion. Leah didn’t reply. She got some alcohol and a few pieces of cloth from the warehouse. Leah helped clean his wound before wrapping it up.

No one spoke during the process.

The man observed her reaction. He realized this girl only felt scared initially but appeared to be calm afterwards. She didn’t even scream when she saw him killing someone.

After dressing the man’s wound, Leah wiped the sweat off her forehead. She was so afraid of getting killed if she annoyed him accidentally. She sat on the ground and came face to face with the man. The man seemed to be in a good mood. He wiped away the blood on his hands. Then, he asked Leah, “Do you have something to say?”

Leah nodded and asked him, “Where is this place? How did you end up here?”

“Don’t you know?”

Leah shook her head while pointing to the body on the floor, “I got kidnapped and was brought here.”

“Interesting.” The man sat down, “This place is Euphoria Land. It looked like a luxury clubhouse on the surface, but it is actually an underground gambling den. You are currently at the gambling den’s warehouse.”

“As for me, you saw how I ended up here because I was escaping from a pursuit.”

One was being kidnapped and another was being pursued. Molly’s informers must be out there. Similarly, those who were pursuing the man must be waiting around the area for an ambush. It would be very difficult for them to escape this place.

Meanwhile, lan returned and told Mrs. Sanders about Leah’s kidnapping.

“The result of the paternity test is out. That girl is indeed Jane’s daughter. I have to tell Jane about this!” Mrs. Sanders became restless. lan stopped her, “No, Mr. White has not returned yet. What if you startled him by telling Mrs. White?”

“What should we do then?”

“We should first find Leah.” lan looked gloomy.

At the same time, Han got out of his car. He looked at the brightly lit neon sign boards in front of him that spelled out “Euphoria Land”.

“Mr. Howard.” The attendant had been waiting for him at the entrance for a long time, “Mr. Sawyer is waiting for you at B301. Please follow me.”

It was a secret only known to the high-tier VIPS at Euphoria Land. The alphabet in front of the rooms had a special meaning. The letter “A” meant that it was a club room while the letter “B” meant that it was a gambling den.

Han walked into B301. A middle-aged man with a big belly was waiting for him.

“Mr. Howard. It’s been a long time.” Wilson Sawyer welcomed him with a smile.

Han asked impatiently, “Did you find the person I asked you to?”

Wilson froze up, “Mr. Howard, I wanted to help you but we had a troublemaker recently. He ruined many of my deals. I will help you as soon as possible when I get rid of him.”

Han squinted his eyes, “That means you did nothing in the last 16 hours!”

Wilson felt a chill run down his spine. He unconsciously took two steps backwards as he explained with a smile, “Don’t say that. I’ve asked my lackeys to find him…”

Han knew Wilson was just trying to talk his way out of trouble. He chuckled and said, “Get lost.” His voice was cold as ice.

Wilson tried to explain more but Han just glared at him. Han’s killing intent terrified Wilson. He ran away out of fear even though he was the owner of Euphoria Land.

Han was left alone in that huge room.

Meanwhile, back at the warehouse.

“Let’s escape,” Leah suggested. There were many items in the warehouse. She found two uniforms used by the attendants at Euphoria Land. The man knew what she was planning after taking a glance at the uniforms: in her hands.

He laughed and said, “This is a place where you put your life on the line.”

Leah had already calmed down. She had a plan. Han didn’t want her alive anyway. She would be lucky if she could escape here alive. Even if she’s dead….

“Don’t worry. I’ll cover for you if you get discovered. You are good in combat. I’m sure you can escape this place.”

The man was fearless, but he was still shocked, “Aren’t you afraid of dying?”

Leah chuckled, “My life isn’t even mine, to begin with.”

There was a cupboard in the warehouse. Leah hid inside to change her clothes, but she felt awkward when she came out. The uniform for a female attendant at Euphoria Land was quite revealing. Her long legs and arms were almost uncovered, and most of her chest was exposed too.

On the contrary, the male attendant’s uniform was nothing unusual. The man took a glance at Leah. He said jokingly, “I didn’t expect you to have such a nice body even though your looks are just decent.”

Leah blushed and stared at him. She finally realized how handsome the man was. He had beautiful eyes, a tall nose and a handsome face. He looked different compared to Han who was handsome yet aggressive. The man had a certain kind of charm. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Why are you spacing out? Are you having perverted thoughts after noticing how handsome I am?” The man

teased Leah.

Leah ignored him. She opened the door to take a quick peek outside. It was crowded. Everyone was immersed at their gambling table, and no one was paying attention to what was going on around them.

“Let’s go.” Leah pulled the man as they both walked outside naturally.

“Hey, stop right there!” They heard a fierce shout behind them.

Leah froze. She turned around slowly. The man also had his guard up for a moment.

“Come here and fill up my cup.”

Leah breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that. She went to fill the gambler’s cup. Then, she felt him touching her hand.

“What a nice body. Accompany me tonight and I’ll give you 10% of my winnings today. What do you think?” The gambler wrapped his arms around Leah’s slim waist.

Leah blushed while rejecting him, “I still have something to do.”

“You are just a whore. Stop embarrassing yourself!”

Many people were grinning around them. They were waiting for her to make a fool of herself. The man who was with Leah wanted to turn around to help her but a shadow swept past him. Someone had walked up to Leah before he could.

After that, a scary voice could be heard, “Let her go.”
