Chapter 1424 Why Would He Disclose It So Easily
Why did KKCD Casino's boss organize this event? What exactly is his motive? Elisa became even more suspicious of the boss' identity because all the guests who attended were important figures, including Eden and Mr. Carrerra.
"Gareth, I'll send you the instructions for using Ganoderma Caligo later. After the event tonight…" Elisa's expression turned solemn as her suspicion arose. She expected the worst outcome, so she was prepared to retreat anytime.
However, Gareth interrupted her sharply before she could finish her sentence. "What are you planning again this time?"
His eyes turned cold as his anger became obvious.
Elisa wasn't annoyed by his anger. "I'm not planning anything. I just thought of the worst-case scenario. I need to find out why they are targeting me." Elisa was determined–even if it would cost her life, she wanted to find out the truth.
Gareth understood her stubbornness. If it was in the past, before their divorce, he couldn't watch her get into trouble no matter how much he disliked her. Now, after overcoming several hardships together, he couldn't abandon her all the more.
Gareth frowned and asked, "Elisa, am I such a useless man to you?"
"Not at all." Elisa denied it. Perceiving Gareth's impatient expression, she explained, "I'm the one they're targeting, not you. If you return first, you might be able to settle everything." In contrast, you might be implicated if you continue staying by my side.
Gareth replied coldly in disdain, "Do you think I'm a coward?"
"You're not. I just don't want my whole life to be indebted to you." Elisa didn't want to be entangled with Gareth anymore for these matters.
Meanwhile, Gareth's face darkened even more.
…
The event started on time. After an opening remark by the emcee, there were singing and dancing performances. Nonetheless, none of the guests expected the boss of KKCD Casino to show up and give a speech. The crowd was surprised when they saw the man standing on the stage.
He was wearing a black suit and looked extraordinarily formal. He spoke into the microphone, "I held the event tonight to thank your support toward KKCD Casino. Due to unexpected reasons, the event was postponed for a few days. All activities tonight are free of charge. At the same time, I prepared a special program. If someone can achieve victory tonight, I'll reveal to the person the origin of Ganoderma Caligo and send someone to escort him there to find the precious plant!"
Everyone was astounded by the news that sounded too good to be true. It was a significant reward! Many became excited and were ready to go to any lengths to discover the origin of Ganoderma Caligo.

Looking at the boss, Elisa furrowed her brows. The boss wore a masquerade, so Elisa couldn't see his face. However, for some reason, she felt his gaze occasionally turn toward her.
As for the special program the boss mentioned, he claimed it was to appreciate the guests' support, but thanks to their support, he earned a fortune from auctioning off his items at exorbitant prices. And now, he wanted to disclose the origin of Ganoderma Caligo, a plant that was so precious that it took a hundred years to grow a single piece.
If he really knew the location, why would he disclose so easily?
