“But…“
“But nothing! By the time I am finished, Bill won't be able to do anything but cry.“
That night, when Bill was already deep in slumber, one of his men woke him up in a rush.
“Boss, I have some bad news! We lost another casino!“ the man shouted in a panicked tone.
“What? Why?!“ Bill was livid that he had to wake up to some more bad news. He felt his blood pressure rise as he waited for his employee to explain the situation.
His subordinate lowered his head and replied, “We are unable to get any money from the casino. It seems that the casino doesn't belong to us anymore.“
Upon hearing this, Bill jumped out of bed and kicked him to the side. “What the hell is going on? Didn't I tell you to arrange more people to protect our assets? Didn't I order you to be more careful? So what the hell do you mean, we can't get any profit?!“
The anger that Bill was feeling was immeasurable. He didn't even bother to put on some clothes.
The man's lips trembled as he added, “I wanted to go in and get the bonus. When I got there, nobody was listening to me. They were acting like I didn't exist. I had to get the information from a close friend of mine.“
The man turned to the side and tried to be more careful with his words. He sighed before he explained further, “They told me that Ethan's men went into the casino and intervened. The casino was losing so much money but somehow, they managed to salvage it. Now, everyone considers Ethan as the boss and owner of the casino.“ He shook his head then continued, “I don't know what tricks Ethan used to make our people change their loyalty like that. All the people in the casino are now working for Ethan.“
