Chapter 164: Bragging
Chapter 164: Bragging
Dominic graduated from high school and never went to college. He had worked as awork
administrator, sold drinks at a bar, worked as an enforcer for a debt collectionpany, and even
pretended to be an elite in a fancy office.
None of these jobs were enough to impress anyone, except for the fact that he once worked at Soar
Casino.
Although he was just an inconspicuous security guard there, he made over one million dors in just
one year.
For the wealthy, this amount of money was nothing but pocket change. But for ordinary people like
Dominic, it was a huge fortune.
Young and carefree, he quit his job and opened up a barbecue restaurant. Unfortunately it failed
due to poor management and all of his one million dors were spent.
With no other options left, he had no choice but to return here and start over again.
Luckily, Sebastian was an honorable man who took him in.
Although Dominic had resigned from Soar Casino, he knew all about its rules and positions inside
out.
He led the way while Cheyenne followed closely behind.
"Are you really going?" Kelvin walked up beside her with his icy voice sounding like snowkes
falling on winter days. He also had a faint scent of peppermint on him too.
"It''s none of your business." Her eyes were blurry yet dazzling with light that made it hard for Kelvin
to see clearly.
"If you have time, just go see your almost dying fiancee, Mr. Foley. If you''re really a man, then stop
bothering Cheyenne anymore, because you''ve caused her enough misery." Reece suddenly
bumped into Kelvin''s shoulder with his own but this hit didn''t move Kelvin''s body at all. Instead,
Reece almost stumbled to the ground himself.
Kelvin turned slightly towards him with cold eyes staring at him before pausing for several seconds
which made Reece realize that he made mistake so quickly coughed before lowering his head.
This guy''s gaze was too scary! How did Cheyenne manage to stay together with him for three
years? Was she really happy living around such a cold man?
Besides... he didn''t lie either! If it weren''t for this man, then Cheyenne would have be the most
brilliant woman in Akloit instead of bing a "poor abandoned woman" reported in the news.
"Who said I''m bothering her? I''m also looking for Soar Casino!"
In this casino, you can not only gamble with money but also with everything in the world, including
your life!
When Kelvin was young, he came here once. He gambled away his life just so that he could get a
chance at sess.
Hearing the man''s response, Cheyenne''s fingers, hidden under her long sleeves, couldn''t help but
rub at the joints, trying hard to restrain her curiosity and shock.
''What does a businessman like Kelvin want with Soar Casino?''
A faint glimmer passed through her eyes for a moment, but it disappeared just as quickly. Since she
was facing away from him, no one noticed.
"Reece, let''s go our separate ways. We don''t need to bother with him!"
"Yeah, I''m with Cheyenne."

Reece scurried up beside her and almost stumbled in his high heels before catching himself by
grabbing onto Cheyenne''s shoulder. The hand on her shoulder was fair but not as soft and delicate
as a woman''s; it clearly belonged to a man!
''She actually let another man get so close to her!'' This realization made Kelvin ufortable and
he almost lost control wanting to push that hand away.
But then he remembered that it wasn''t his way of doing things.
Subconsciously, he reached into his suit pocket and pulled out a cigarette. As soon as he tasted the
slightly spicy tobo vor on his lips and tongue and felt the smoke enter his lungs, even his soul
seemed momentarily numb.
Cheyenne also smelled the scent of smoke.
When did he learn how to smoke? She used to smoke, butter Kelvin said he didn''t like the smell
of cigarettes, so he asked her to quit smoking. It hadn''t been long since their divorce but he had
learned to smoke.
What a domineering and selfish man he is. Why should it always be him saying "no" and "not
allowed"? But in the end, he''s the first one to break the rules.
This little incident was quickly forgotten by Cheyenne because she had arrived at Soar Casino.
No wonder she couldn''t find it after searching for so long. It turned out this casino was underground
while above ground there was only a bookstore operating there instead.
It was an old-fashioned bookstore full of charm decorated in ancient style; even blue-bound thread
books were ced on bookshelves.
Behind the counter stood an elderly gentleman around sixty years old wearing a blue robe with
silver hair styled into two sideburns framing either side of his face while sporting reading sses
giving off an air of mystery like some kind of reclusive master.
Hearing footsteps approaching from outside caused him to look up while setting down his pen.
On white rice papery letters forming a word "Endure" which looked quite bold resembling cursive
script making people admire its beauty when nced upon briefly.
"Dominic, what brings you here again?"
Dominic nervously touched the back of his head and smiled at the old man, "Old Mr. Barlow, these
are some friends I just met. They came here to see the famous casino."
Upon hearing this, old Mr. Barlow frowned and nced at Cheyenne''s attire.
The clothes alone cost around a million dors, and the diamond ne around her neck was cut
in a hexagonal shape and should be worth between two to three million dors.
Her entire outfit added up to at most five or six million dors.
ording to the casino''s rules, each chip starts at ten million, does this youngdy have so much
money?
Seemingly aware of his disdainful gaze towards her, Cheyenne remained expressionless but
secretly curled her lips as she sweetly chatted with Reece.
"When was thest time I went to casinos?"
She threw a flirtatious nce at Reece who quickly understood what she meant and lifted his bangs
with one finger while thinking for a moment before replying, "I remember now... it wasst
Saturday."
"Oh yeah! Now I remember too! That''s when I lost over thirty million!"
"Right! And when I went to your houseter on, you got beaten up by your mom."
Cheyenne''s lips twitched. "Let''s not talk about embarrassing things like that anymore. Later on, my
dad felt sorry for me, so he gave me fifty million to buy band-aids."
"What happened after that?"
"I wanted to use it as down payment for a private jet but then I went to casinos again and lost it all."
"This time your dad might beat you himself," Reece joked.
"Nonsense! My dad is really good to me; he even gave me sixty million and told me to spend it all."
Reece looked enviously sour as he said, "Your dad is really nice."
