Chapter: 140
“Gentlemen, I shall be leaving now. Please enjoy yourselves.”
“Are you serious?” Damon Looked at Carlos’ retreating figure in stunned
disbelief. He wondered if all men changed colors after getting married.
“But he married the girl three years ago. And I've never seen him go back home
this early in the past three years.
Does that mean he fell in love with her just recently?” Damon wondered.
The doors of the private booth were pushed open by two bodyguards, and noises
came from outside the room. Just as Carlos was about to get out of the room,
Damon's voice came from behind his back.
“Carlos, since you don’t have any means to make her fall in love with you, I'll give
you a piece of advice. Why don’t you be nice to her as much as you can?
I guess your best hope is to move her with your sincerity.”
Damon knew Jared well. If Jared believed that Debbie was a good girl,
Damon wouldn't doubt that. “What does a good girl want? She doesn’t want
money or fame. I guess she only wants a man who would love her truly, * Damon
thought to himself.
Without turning around or responding, Carlos left the booth. Damon raised one of
his eyebrows and then turned around to look at Wesley.
“Want to bet?”
“Not interested.” Wesley turned him down without any hesitation. After all, he was
not that close to Damon, at least not as close as Carlos was. Wesley himself was
a military officer, while Damon was a gang member. If it weren't for the sake of
Carlos and Curtis, Wesley would have sent Damon to jail a long time ago.
“Don't be such a killjoy! Listen. I bet Carlos will become a slave for his wife
sooner or later, and he will be willing to kneel down before her.” If Damon knew
that Wesley had always wanted to send him to jail, he would feel wronged. Yes, it
was true that he was a gang member, but he had never crossed the threshold
into terrible and unacceptable behavior.
Wesley didn’t know what to say to him.
However, he firmly believed that a proud man like Carlos would never kneel
before a woman.
Damon had been long drooling over one of Wesley's pistols, so he said,
“If 1 win, you will give me that pistol of yours.” rumors of Wesley's new double-
action, semi-automatic pistol. With its stainless steel and polymer construction, it
was one of the lightest pistols in the world that packed quite a punch despite its
weight and size.
Damon had heard
“Okay. If I win, you need to Leave the gang.”
Damon remained silent for a while. After a lot of contemplation, he was almost
certain that he would be the winner. He nodded and raised his glass.
They gulped their wine, put the glasses on the table and left the booth to catch
up with Carlos.
Debbie's high school classmates’ gathering happened to be on the same day.
Jared had made a reservation at the Orchid Private Club in advance. Debbie
arrived on the phone with her Yoga teacher asking for a leave. All the while Jared
showed her the way as she was completely unaware of the club she was in.
When the call ended, she was already in a private booth.
It was the Largest booth in the club. There were four big tables in the room and
many guests had already arrived.
When the people saw Jared, they all stood up to greet him. It was the first time
that they had been to such a luxurious club together.
