However, Baldy then shook his head in full view of everyone. Biting the bullet, he leaned close to Aquila’s ear. “J’Adore asked us to clean up after ourselves.”
At this moment, the smile on Aquila’s face froze. He was stunned for a few seconds before he demanded incredulously, “What? Repeat it again.”
While all eyes were fixed on him, Baldy repeated Lee’s words again.
“F*ck!” Snatching up the wine glass at the side, Aquila flung it onto the ground viciously. That d*mn woman usually loves sticking her nose into other people’s business, but now that an issue has cropped up, she’s hiding like a coward! How shameless! I’ve always respected her, but never had I thought that she’d refuse to do me this favor when I’m in hot water!
Janet had her arms crossed, the corners of her mouth tilted upward. Not only is he dumb, but he’s also hot-tempered. It’s truly an insult to Markovia for him to be the second strongest force here.
Stepping forward, Baldy again leaned close to Aquila’s ear and said, “Don’t be angry, Boss. J’Adore might not be coming, but Jasmine said she’s coming, so just wait for a while longer.”
Upon hearing Jasmine’s name, Aquila seemed to have found his assurance. “Jasmine? Is this for real?” he instantly demanded. She’s truly coming? If Jasmine comes, perhaps she can help to keep this group of impudent people in line. It’s worth it even if I’ve got to spend tens of billions, let alone one billion!
At that, Baldy nodded firmly.
Glimpsing the certainty in his eyes, Aquila shot Mason a wintry glare, his gaze radiating danger and savagery. “B*tch!” He subsequently stared at Janet, his voice glacial. “I wonder if your master will be heartbroken when she comes and sees you siding with the Lowry Family from Sandfort City.” The change in his addressing of her from the initial ‘d*mn girl’ to ‘b*tch’ made it glaringly obvious that he was livid.
When Mason heard this, he stared at Aquila with a dark look on his face. He indeed hadn’t planned on killing Aquila in the first place, but the latter had just committed a huge faux pas that had a murderous intent gripping him all at once.
Conversely, Janet wasn’t bothered. She languidly reclined back against the lounge chair while rolling a dice in her hand. Lifting her eyes, she nonchalantly cast him a glance. “Oh? My master? When did I have a master? I don’t remember having one.”
As soon as she said those words, Aquila’s nerves instantly stretched taut. “Didn’t you just say that Jasmine is considered half your master?” His countenance was contorted with rage and his eyes were stained red. Sure enough, this b*tch is a coward! The moment I said she’s going to see her master, she immediately denied her remark earlier.
“What? Jasmine is this girl’s master?”
“I thought it was a mere rumor. Never have I expected it to be true!”
“No wonder she defeated Ace just now. It turns out that she’s really the Queen of Gamblers’ disciple!”
Meanwhile, Ace, who was standing at the corner, was feeling startled. He narrowed his eyes and thought, This girl is truly Jasmine’s disciple?
Although Aquila’s men were restrained, it didn’t affect their curiosity at all. However, everyone quickly discovered a problem; Jasmine had never said anything about having a disciple, nor did she ever host a discipleship ceremony! In the gambling world, any great masters who took a disciple needed to host a discipleship ceremony or the like to make things official.
Then, Janet pursed her lips and snickered at Aquila.
When Aquila heard the soft snicker in front of him, his expression abruptly tightened. “Don’t rejoice too early.” Turning, he hollered at the person behind him. “Where’s Jasmine, Baldy?”
Trembling, Baldy wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. “I’ll rush her.” Time ticked by, and he finally got hold of Lee once again.
However, Lee merely stated in an indifferent tone, “Jasmine says that she’s already in the casino.” After saying that, he hung up.
