He had only himself to blame for losing his subordinates.
Gareth's eyes widened in realization as he saw the menacing glint in Mr. Carerra's dark eyes.
What Elisa gave him was both an antidote and a poison!
"Now that Elisa is with the KKCD Casino's boss, I'm sure she doesn't care whether you're dead or alive. You should hurry up and get your Ganoderma Caligo back to save your grandmother," Mr. Carerra scoffed at him. Within a split second, his subordinates stepped between him and Gareth, blocking Gareth's path before he could hurt him.
Mr. Carerra was soon free from the ropes.
His body was so weak that he could barely stand, but his predatory eyes bore into him with a wicked glint.
Gareth didn't say a word as he was rooted to his spot.
He was reminded of what had happened to Irene and Eden.
If he started a commotion in the casino, he would be forced out of the casino. However, he didn't want to leave the casino. If he left, Elisa would never spare another glance at him.
Elisa believed that she had already done everything she could for Gareth. They were already separated, so there was no reason for them to get entangled in each other's affairs anymore.
But why? Why did he feel a bitter pang of pain coil around his heart when he heard what Mr. Carerra said?
After all, they were no longer related.
Gareth mulled over his thoughts, his heart pounding in his chest. He knew that he couldn't bear to see Elisa getting hurt. He had to do something to protect her.
As Gareth ruminated through his conflicting thoughts, a glimmer of a pathway appeared before his mind.
After a moment, he took out his phone and dialed Elisa's number. He had something urgent to discuss with her, but his call was rejected immediately.
Mr. Carerra sneered at Gareth as he witnessed what had happened. "A woman would never return to your side after they've found someone new. After all, the boss of this casino is richer, more powerful, and more capable than you."
Mr. Carerra's eyes were fixated on Gareth as he spat these words out through his teeth.
He watched Gareth's face with amusement as Garreth's anger twisted it into a mask of rage. It was like watching a thunderstorm brewing, with dark clouds gathering and lightning flashing.
