Soon, just as Scarlet expected, William quickly lost all his chips again, leaving the spot on the table in front of him empty.

William widened his eyes in shock. He almost didn’t dare to believe that he had lost the chips he obtained in exchange for Karen’s bracelet in such a short time.

He was indignant, but unfortunately, he no longer had anything else of value with him that he could sell.

“Can one of you lend me some money? I will definitely win and recoup my losses. I promise I’ll return the money immediately after I win!” William suddenly turned his head and looked at his fellow poker players at the table, as well as those surrounding the table. magic

“Who would be so foolish to lend you money? You promised to pay me forty-five hundred after borrowing three thousand from me two days ago, but you didn’t return me anything!”

“Exactly! You still owe the Opulence seventy-six thousand dollars. Don’t think we’ve forgotten. Who would dare lend you money?” the people around said with contempt.

Gamblers often thought that they could win the next round and recoup their losses, but they often ended up losing even more terribly. And the more they lost, the more obsessed they became. But they were often unaware of it.

Seeing that the people around him weren’t willing to lend him any money to recoup his losses, William panicked, and his face became flushed. No amount of begging would help.

Suddenly, someone said from behind him, “I can lend you three hundred thousand dollars!”

His voice was like heavenly music to William’s ears. He turned around and saw a dashing young scion standing behind him. It was the same man who offered to lend him 300,000 dollars!

Needless to say, this person was Aston Brooke.

Like a famished person who finally saw food, William immediately leaped toward Aston.

Aston smiled indifferently. “However, you must pay me back, including interest, 380,000 dollars tonight. Otherwise, you will have to put everything that you have or are related to on the line.”

“Sure, no problem!” William agreed without even thinking.

In his opinion, as long as he had 300,000 dollars as capital, he would be able to win several times that amount. So 380,000 dollars wouldn’t be a problem for him at all!

William didn’t even think about how he would be able to pay back the 380,000 dollars if he lost because he felt that it definitely wouldn’t happen!

He was certain that he would break out of his losing streak and start winning!

Seeing William’s bloodshot eyes, Aston stayed silent and immediately got William to sign an IOU for 380,000 dollars. Then he took out a bank card from his wallet and handed it to Scarlet to have her exchange for 300,000 dollars worth of chips.

When William saw the pile of chips in front of him, his fingers trembled with excitement.

After gambling for such a long time in this clubhouse, it was his first time touching so many chips. He reckoned that he would definitely win!

William’s eyes were red as he shouted, “Come on, let’s continue! It’s my turn to recoup my losses next!”

With so many chips in hand, William gained confidence and started betting larger stakes than before while the crowd egged him on.

It didn’t take long for the chips in front of William to get fewer and fewer. In less than an hour, he lost all 300,000 dollars worth of chips!

Aston looked at the money he had lent and lost, feeling a peculiar sense of joy.

William’s face paled. Seeing that the chips in front of him had once again been pushed to others, his heart was almost going to explode, and his eyes were bloodshot.

He abruptly turned to look at Aston. “Hey, if you lend me another three hundred thousand, no, two hundred thousand, I will definitely win back all the money! I will return you every single cent that I promised to return!”

William simply pinned all his hopes on Aston.

But this time, Aston shook his head. “Sir, I’ve already lent you three hundred thousand, and you’ve lost everything. But you still have the cheek to ask me to lend you more money. What do you have that you can return to me? We’re not related to each other, and I was already kind enough to lend you so much money. Everyone, don’t you agree?”

The people around them immediately agreed. “Yeah, this young man has nothing to do with you. He was already kind and generous enough to lend you so much money in one go! William Carter, don’t be ungrateful!”

William was anxious and overwrought. When he suddenly saw Scarlet beside Aston, he hurriedly pointed at her. “She’s my niece! That makes us relatives, right? Lend me another two hundred thousand, and I definitely won’t go back on my word!”

Scarlet had been standing beside Aston for a long time, and she was also the one who exchanged the chips for William just now. But William had been staring at the chips and only noticed her now.

Aston feigned looking surprised and looked at Scarlet in shock. “What? This man is actually your uncle?”

Scarlet rolled her eyes at William. “I don’t have such an uncle who doesn’t return the money he owes yet still has the cheek to borrow money from others. I don’t know this person at all!”

Willian suddenly became anxious and tried to pull Scarlet’s arm. “Scarlet, how can you say you don’t know me? I’m your uncle, William Carter! When you were a child, you often came to our place to play!”

Aston stopped William, no longer as cheerful as before. Instead, his face turned gloomy as he glared at William. “I took pity on you when I saw that you lost a lot of money. I didn’t expect you to be such a person. You’re even trying to lie and say that she’s your relative. In this case, pay me back the 380,000 dollars that you owe me now!”

As Aston spoke, he slapped the IOU that William just signed onto the table in front of him.

“William Carter, you actually tried to falsely claim that someone else is your relative! She doesn’t even know you. Besides, even if she does, you can’t just write off your debt merely because she’s your relative.”

“Exactly! Hurry up and return the money! 380,000 dollars isn’t a small amount!”

“Can he afford that? He’s already lost all his money. I bet he doesn’t even have a thousand dollars!”

“Hahaha, since you can’t afford it, don’t take the loan! You were so bold when you bet so much money just now!”

The surrounding poker players were all chattering continuously, making William so anxious that he started sweating profusely.

380,000 dollars was a massive amount of money that he obviously couldn’t repay.

If he had so much money, he wouldn’t have to sneakily steal Karen’s bracelet to sell!
