Chapter 1350 I Don’t Know That Man
"Send me to the hotel," Nicole sternly ordered the driver.
The driver asked Nicole, "Ms. Tabor, what should we do about the man captured from the casino?"
Nicole had forgotten entirely about Aaron until the driver reminded her.
She narrowed her eyes and instructed, "Bring him to me."
He was no help during the auction and even stole my virginity. I will make him pay!
…
Thomas returned when Gareth soaked in the medicated bath for the third time.
He brought the Ganoderma Caligo Gareth had spent ten trillion on and news for Gareth and Elisa.
"Mr. Wickam, Ms. Benett, KKCD Casino will be holding a ball in three days at ten o'clock as appreciation for the guests and to celebrate the successful completion of the auction. Here's the invitation."
With that, Thomas showed Gareth and Elisa a black card with gold embossments.
Elisa could not help but frown as she looked at the black invitation card.
Ordinary people would have issued bright-colored invitations, but KKCD Casino was determined to be different and made it all black.
"Will you be going?"
Elisa pushed aside her thoughts and looked at the sweat-drenched Gareth. He sat in the tub with his eyes shut.
Although his body cleared most of the drug after soaking in medicated baths three times, some residue remained in his bloodstream. Therefore, he needed to take medication. Moreover, his pulse was weak after being constantly battered by the effects of the drug.
He was too weak to travel long distances.
"KKCD Casino requires everyone at tonight's auction to attend the ball."
Gareth did not answer but widened his eyes. His pupils seemed cold as a frozen lake.
Then, Thomas said something else.
Elisa found the invitation laughable. "No matter how big a casino is, it is still just a casino."
He's not the president of Moranta. What right does he have to require everyone at the auction to attend the banquet?
Thomas had also wanted to laugh and felt a sense of derision when Joseph told him this requirement.
However, what Joseph said later changed his mind. "My boss organized this ball as an appreciation. Moreover, he will announce something during the ball. I believe all of you will be interested to hear the announcement."
Thomas repeated Joseph's words to Gareth and Elisa.
That instantly piqued their interest.
What will the owner of KKCD Casino announce? Why did he think we would be interested in it?
"I'll attend the ball. You can wait for me in the hotel if you're not going. After all, you're not ready to take a long flight yet." Elisa was interested in attending the ball.
"Let's delay our return for a few days. I will attend the ball with you."
Gareth spoke slowly. His voice turned hoarse after suppressing it for so long.
He felt uneasy letting Elisa attend anything alone.
At this moment, Gareth suddenly remembered that Elisa had been sent away.
"Was it the owner of KKCD Casino who asked to see you?"
Gareth furrowed his brow.
"No, someone wanted to kill me, but a masked man saved me," Elisa answered honestly about what had happened.
She could not help but shudder as she recalled how the perpetrators surrounded her.
Her fear was understandable as she nearly died.
She was suddenly surrounded by a group of people wishing her harm. They would have stabbed her to death if not for the masked man!
Gareth did not speak but stared at her quietly.
Elisa felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze. "Can you not look at me like this? I don't know that man."
