A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

“Do you really think that just because you run a casino, it makes you a man worthy of my time?“ Louis sneered. He didn't want to waste another second on Bill, so he turned around and started to walk away.

At that point, Bill was done being talked down to. He was fuming and didn't hesitate to start a fight anymore. While pointing at Louis, he shouted, “Even if it's illegal to run a casino, the money I get from it is too good to ignore. That's the only reason I do this. Isn't it enough that you've shut down my source of livelihood? Do you really need to go to such lengths just to humiliate me in front of my men? I hope that you haven't forgotten that when it comes to business, paying sooner is better than later, even if you don't get what you want. You just need to realize that you're still young and it's not your time yet. You have to give way to your elders but you offend them instead. Now that you've made me your enemy, what good does that do you?“

His words resounded deep in Louis' mind. However, his own family and friends' safety was the only thing he cared about. With a blank expression on his face, Louis recalled the time that Bill had beaten his good friend, Ethan, to within an inch of his life. His friend had done nothing wrong, but had been beaten so badly that he needed to go to the hospital. With that in mind, Louis knew that if he didn't get rid of Bill right at that moment, he would definitely regret it later on.

That being said, Louis was a smart man. He knew showing his desire for revenge would only cause trouble for him and Ethan. As a result, he kept quiet and simply stared at Bill, trying his best to come across as normal.

A few moments later, Louis cleared his throat and calmly spoke with a smirk on his face. “Just do what you want while I'll do what needs to be done. Don't you think that's the fairest option for everyone here?“

Shortly after that, his smirk disappeared. He suddenly looked serious and added, “To tell you the truth, if I see an insect sucking the blood and the hard-earned money of other people, I just can't resist the urge to squash it. I'm sorry, but it's in my nature to interfere. In your case, I can't avert my eyes and step away when someone opens a casino and extorts money from its customers. Unfortunately for you, I'm not afraid of being a righteous man. Besides, I like doing these kinds of things. It makes me feel like a good citizen of this country.“

Not a single shred of his anger towards Bill showed while he spoke. Louis' wise words unexpectedly affected a few of Bill's men. When those few finally accepted that they were up to no good, they quickly lost their arrogance and even their will to fight, especially since their own boss couldn't even utter a single word back at Louis. With this realization, these men started to think of what to do after quitting being Bill's henchmen.

“Remember this day, Louis! I swear, if you ever find yourself in a ditch, I'll make your life a living hell.“ Bill exclaimed as a final attempt to maintain his dignity in front of his men.

Louis, who was sitting in a chair in front of Bill, didn't seem to take his threat seriously. He simply waved his hand, as if he was swatting away an annoying fly. His actions angered Bill some more. But before he could open his mouth, Louis gave a subtle threat of his own. “I hope you don't forget that it's broad daylight outside. You should probably be careful of what you say in front of me, or you might get a taste of your own medicine. Anyway, goodbye and be careful on your way out.“

His yearning for righteousness was too strong, to the point that he didn't even consider the dangers he would face. Ever since he was a young boy, he had never been afraid to do the right thing.
