Chapter 1206 Stopped by Phantom’s Bodyguards
A smug smile played at the corner of Damian's lips as he briskly walked down the stairs
and exchanged some chips. Then, he immersed himself at a gambling table.
Now that he had Phantom covering for him, wouldn't he be invincible?
He had just pushed his chips forward while anxiously waiting for the dealer to open the
dice cup when he felt a sharp object pressing against his waist.
He didn't dare to move and turned his head blankly as he was startled. What he saw
shocked him to the core—Alex was holding a dagger and pressing it against his waist with
increased force. His voice was low but inexplicably eerie. "Do you know how long I've been
looking for you?"
Damian forced a smile and feigned ignorance. "Why are you looking for me? I don't know
you!"
Alex's face darkened. "You don't know me? I have a good memory. Don't make a move if
you don't want to die, and don't alert others."
After saying that, he directly grabbed Damian's arm and started walking outside.
Naturally, Alex wouldn't be foolish enough to make a move on the territory of the Double
Dragon Court. Since he had already guessed the connection between Damian and the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDouble Dragon Court, it would definitely alert the enemy if he caused a commotion.
He still didn't know what had happened back then, so he needed to ask Damian about it
first.
However, just as they had taken a few steps, they were stopped by a group of
bodyguards.
Damian was overjoyed as he thought that Phantom was quite effective in keeping her
word and protecting him.
However, he didn't show his joy. After all, he would still have to rely on this woman in the
future. If Alex found out that Phantom was upstairs, he might directly go and settle the
score with her.
Alex halted his steps and looked displeased at the bodyguards in front of him. "What's
going on?"
The leader of the bodyguards pointed at Damian and said, "We suspect that this person is
cheating. Take him away." As he spoke, several people moved forward to apprehend
Damian.
Damian had no worries or fears of losing his hands or feet. In fact, he instinctively moved
forward.
This made Alex, who had already suspected that the bodyguards intentionally stopped
them, even more suspicious. He immediately pulled Damian back and increased the
pressure of the dagger against his waist, which scared Damian into staying still.
"He doesn't have much money on him. How could he be cheating? You can either show me
the surveillance footage, or I'll call the police to come and help!"
The bodyguards' expressions turned fierce, and one of them pointed at Alex while saying,
"Who are you to him? Mind your own business, or we'll deal with you too!"
Alex exuded a formidable aura. "I'm his creditor. Tell your boss not to cause trouble for this
kind of person. He's not worth it."
His tone seemed to suggest that he knew something.
The bodyguards didn't know how to handle the situation for a moment. Their leader,
Phantom, had only instructed them to find a reason to detain Damian, but now it seemed
a bit tricky.
While they were hesitating, the bodyguards saw Alex trying to take Damian away and
hurriedly intercepted them again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Halt!" one of the bodyguards shouted. "We must keep him here today!"
Damian looked cautiously at Alex and said, "Hey, you should go first and not get involved.
We can settle our accounts later."
Alex gave Damian a stern look and ignored him. He had worked hard to find him, so how
could he let him escape now?
If Damian ran away again today, it would be even more difficult to catch him in the future.
Alex considered the likelihood of directly taking Damian away by force as he narrowed his
eyes. These few bodyguards were no match for him, but given Damian's cunning nature,
he would surely take the opportunity to escape when they fought. Moreover, in such a
large casino, there were definitely more than just a few bodyguards. If too many people
were alarmed, Alex might not be able to escape himself.
Therefore, Alex couldn't resort to force directly. "He didn't cheat. If you continue to
obstruct us, I'll have no choice but to call the police."
As he was about to make the call, the bodyguards immediately moved to snatch his
phone.
Alex's eyes glinted with a trace of coldness. He forcefully shook off the hand that the
bodyguard extended and said in a chilling tone, "What's the matter?"
The bodyguards, seeing that their attempts at reasoning had failed, were ready to resort
to force. They approached him menacingly…
