Chapter 677
Renee knew Ro ran apany, but she didn''t know how rich he was. So, five million bucks
meant nothing to him?
"Well... Actually, I wasn''t gonna tell you, but I''m really desperate. Can you please lend me the
money?
"I can write you an IOU. I promise, I''ll pay you back." Renee saw hope again.
"It''s fine. I''m going to visit your parents, and maybe we''ll soon be family. Isn''t my money your
money?"
Renee was moved. "Ro, you are so nice."
"You are my girlfriend, of course I should be nice to you. Where is your brother now? Let''s go look
for him.
"You don''t want him to be alone on new year''s, do you? Also, I bought some presents to pay a visit
to your mother."
"No, I don''t." Renee breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ro, that means a lot. I don''t know what I''d do without you. No one is willing to help me.
"I didn''t tell my mom about this. She is in such a weak state that she will never be able to take this.
"I was upset when she made me breakfast today. I don''t even know how to face her. She has done
a lot for us, and I don''t want her to get hurt again." "Don''t worry. Leave this to me. Auntie will be
fine." "Thank you, Ro."
"It''s what I should do."
She had only known him for a short time, but he treated her better than her so-called rtives. She
really thanked him.
Ro drove all the way to the casino. With him around, Renee was not so worried.
"Is this the casino?"
"Yes."
"You go in first. I''ll park the car and catch youter."
"Okay." Renee happily went into the casino. After she got out of the car, Ro''s smile died and he
dialed a person''s number.
"I need you to do something."
Looking at Renee''s cheerful back, he gave a smile. "I can''t let my five million go down the drain, can
I?"
Ro was definitely the most dangerous beast. He wouldn''t let go of any prey he wanted.
Carmen was watching TV alone in the apartment.
She didn''t know why, but she felt uneasy, as if something was going to happen.
Theedian tried to make the audienceugh, but she couldn''t.
Her phone rang. Was it Leo? She must scold him for noting home for the new year.
However, it was a strange number. She picked it up. "Hello."
She thought it was a new year call, but what she heard turned her face pale.
"What?! Leo''s gonna get his feet chopped off and Renee''s forced to be a prostitute?"
Her heart sank. In the end, she passed out and her phone fell to the ground.

When Carmen worked at the club, sometimes she''d get some sick customers. She went into a
coma if she was too stressed or agitated.
There were coronary patients in her family, so she had a weak heart.
The past 20 years had been easy for her, so she had had few episodes. But she was getting older
now, and she had spent some time in prison.
One blow after another made her worse and worse. As a result, she got a coronary.
When she got out of prison, Renee took her for a full workup. The doctor said she had a coronary,
but Renee didn''t dare tell her.
Renee didn''t want Carmen to get beaten up again. Carmen was like a camel full of straw. One more
straw and she''d be crushed.
Renee didn''t know Carmen passed out at home. She was proudly negotiating with the casino guy.
"Miss Xia, you got the money so fast?" the man asked with a malicious smile.
"Where''s my brother? I want to see him."
"Okay." He pped his hands and soon someone brought Leo out.
"Leo, they didn''t bully you, did they?" Renee looked him up and down, for fear that he had been
beaten.
"I''m fine. Did you get the money?" All Leo cared about was money now. Although nothing happened
last night, he couldn''t sleep at all. His life would be over if Renee failed to get the money.
"Yes."
"Miss Xia, give me the money and I''ll let your brother go."
"Wait a minute. I need to wait for someone."
"Are you messing with me? I''m warning you. If you don''t give me money, you and your brother are
gonna die here."
"Hey, watch your attitude." Ro''s voice rang out.
Upon hearing his voice, Renee felt more confident. "Ro, you''re here."
"Sis, who is he?" Leo looked at this strange man.
"He is my friend, and he came here to save you." Renee was more relieved. Just now, she was so
afraid that Ro wouldn''t show up.
"Cut the crap. We want money!" The man didn''t know Ro, so he didn''t take him seriously.
Ro took out a cheque and said, "Here."
The man immediately gave a smile. "I thought you were fooling me. Haha."
"Before you take the cheque, you need to apologize to them."
"Fine. Miss Xia, Mr. Xia. I''m sorry for being rude to you. Please forgive me."
Renee snorted. She knew the guys at the casino only cared about money.
"Ro, let''s go."
Ro handed the check to the man, took Renee''s shoulder, and left.
"Let''s go to your ce."
"Mmm." Renee thought she was finally getting her act together.
Ro took out his cell phone and saw a
message. It said, "Done."
He smiled.
