Never Late, Never Away (Vivian and Finnick) novel Chapter 3279

Chapter 3279 Moneylender

Since that was the case, she wouldn’t mind witnessing his downfall. She knew that Herman was about to fall into a deep abyss and never find a way out.

Half an hour later, after observing the situation at multiple gambling tables, Herman seemed to have decided on his next game.

This time around, Megan did not bother to squeeze through the crowd to look at Herman’s cards. She merely stood at one side and waited patiently.

“That’s impossible!”

After some time, an agonizing bellow was heard from the gambling table.

Megan was not surprised at all to hear that painful yell. She let out a slight smile with a hint of malice, basking in the satisfaction it gave her.

“Excuse me, please let me through. My friend is there!” Megan pushed through the crowd who was enjoying the show and forced her way towards the gambling table.

At the table, Herman had lost all his chips and was hugging his head helplessly with a deep crease between his brows.

Megan, who was standing behind him, could not help but feel slightly emotional as she witnessed that scene.

She had seen that powerless figure countless times. Herman shirked all responsibilities and was unable to handle even a slight amount of stress. All he knew was to leave the mess for her to clean up.

Well, Megan had regained over herself and was no longer emotionally affected by that familiar figure.

“Winning and losing are all part of life. You should know better as you are more educated than me.” Megan stood next to Herman and comforted him with a warm smile on her face, just like a gentle and affectionate elder sister.

However, Herman, who did not have any chips left, was unable to let go of his loss. He gambled because he wanted to win, and also because he cared about his ego.

At the present moment, he was almost losing his rationality. All he needed was just another trigger.

The crowd was stunned when they heard Megan’s suggestion. No one in their right minds would encourage their loved ones to borrow money from moneylenders.

To the rest of the people, Megan and Herman seemed like an intimate couple. As such, it was unfathomable to them that the woman would make a suggestion that might turn out to be the greatest regret of the man’s life.

Everyone exhibited different expressions and was lost in their own thoughts.

The action at the gambling table had also come to a halt for quite a while as Herman had not placed his bet. Noticing that the man had run out of capital, the other gamblers at that table wanted to chase him away.

Herman hesitated at Megan’s suggestion and could not make up his mind. It was as if he was glued to his seat, no matter how the others tried to pull him away or persuaded him to leave, he was unmoved and sat still at the table.

Judging by the state the man was in, Megan knew she had already won half the battle.

With a chuckle, she spoke, “Have you decided? If you get the money sooner, you will be able to recoup your losses sooner.” Even though the woman’s voice was as sweet as an angel’s, her words were so terrifying that they gave goosebumps.
