Chapter 2180


    When you think you''re about to hit the jackpot at the casino, that''s when you''ve already lost.


    You might aim to profit, but there''s always someone else aiming to profit off you.


    ke, a fixture at the casino for decades, had long been seduced by the promises of wealth and


    luxury. Yet, anyone with a sense to call it quits wouldn''t still be gambling after so many years, ending up


    nothing but a gambler deep in debt.


    In the end, he squandered all the money he had, owing the house over ten million, even resorting to


    mortgaging his sole vi to them.


    With eyes burning red, ke lunged forward, demanding Vermont to be held ountable, saying that


    he had set him up and cheated him off his money.


    But iming that Vermont had cheated would raise doubts about the casino''s management, something


    they couldn''t allow. So, with a sack over his head, they knocked him out and dumped him onto the


    street.


    Ste and Vermont, an odd pair of unrted siblings, swiftly split the ill- gotten gains on the spot. Then,


    blindfolded, they were escorted out in the casino''s car.


    Once the blindfolds were removed, silence fell between them.


    Not far away, a Maybach awaited, with Keegan standing expressionless in front of them, dressed in a


    suit.


    Ste nudged Vermont, urging him to say something, anything.


    Vermont yed his part, widening his eyes. "Ste, did the babies kick you?


    "Huh?" Ste was taken aback, then instinctively covered her stomach, "Oh, yes, quite a kick.’


    Vermont supported her, giving her a meaningful nce. "Doesn''t it hurt when the babies kick?" "It


    does," Ste pitifully nced at Keegan, "Honey, your daughter and son are giving me a hard time."


    Keegan didn''t move forward, coldly observing the two lousy actors. After a while, he finally said, "Get in


    the car."


    The two performers dropped their act, quietly opening the car door and slipping inside.


    Only then did they realize another aplice was seated in the back.


    Felicity forced a smile, waving at them. "I''m not one to spill secrets, I''m just too honest. Lying weighs


    heavy on me. When your husband gives me that look, I just want toe clean."


    Ste was speechless.


    Vermont gave her a thumbs up, grinning. "Sweetheart, this is your payback, right? In the game, I


    betrayed you, and in real life, you betrayed me. We make quite the pair."


    Felicity clenched her teeth, "Zip it!"


    Thirty minutester, at Suite 902 in Clouditude International.


    Keegan sat on the sofa, the three culprits standing before him in a line.


    He picked up his cup, taking a sip of tea, calmly saying, "Speak."


    The trio started talking all at once, making a cacophony that grated on Keegan''s ears.


    Keegan frowned. "One at a time."


    Ste raised her hand. "I''ll go first."


    Keegan nced at her, then at the empty space on the sofa beside him." Pregnant women should sit


    when speaking."


    Vermont''s eye twitched, thinking to himself, "Could you be any more biased?"


    Felicity hurriedly helped Ste sit, and she herself took the chance to sit next to Ste.


    Vermont was confused.


    "Are you pregnant too?"

    Felicity answered, "I''m getting ready for it."


    Vermont scooted over to sit down as well, shamelessly saying, "I''m preparing too."


    Everyone was speechless.


    As long as you were thick-skinned, the ones who would feel awkward were others.


    Keegan scanned the trio of crafty characters. "Who came up with this scheme?"


    Ste, who had been eager to speak, immediately withdrew her hand at the question.


    But Keegan''s gaze lingered on her, and when Ste turned to look, the two beside her simultaneously


    pointed their fingers at her.


    Ste gritted her teeth; these two traitors!
