NovelEnglishChapter 578
Chloe rummaged through a caband stumbled upon an old, weathered folder. It was filled with documents
from shortly after she was born. Among them was a health report from her one-month check-up, and one detail
jumped out at her: her blood type was AB negative. Considering both Ann and John were type A, having a child
with that blood type seemed impossible. What did this mean? Leah felt a chill run down her spine. Could it be
that Chloe wasn't Ann and John's child after all?
Recently, Chloe had been hounded by Linda, but she hadn't gone looking for her again. Instead, she found
herself at the underground casino of the nightclub "Night Veil." There, she crossed paths with Ricky once more.
This guy was hustling everywhere, trying to track down Lisa. He'd accumulated a staggering debt of thirty million
at the casino. If he couldn't pay it back by tomorrow, he'd be tossed into the alligator pond. Rumor had it there
was a pond behind the club's hills with dozens of fierce Nile crocodiles, kept specifically for punishing those who
didn't pay up. Whether it was true or not, Ricky knew it was. Just yesterday, the manager had dragged him there,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand it was terrifying.
Now, he was desperately searching for Lisa, hoping the wealthy heiress could bail him out. But Lisa was nowhere
to be found. After much effort, he learned from their family's grocery-shopping nanny this morning that Lisa had
been arrested. No one knew when she'd get out. Ricky felt like a cat on a hot tin roof. Who could possibly come
up with thirty million on such short notice? If he couldn't pay back the money, he was genuinely going to be
alligator food.
As he was pacing around, panicking, Chloe appeared in front of him. He remembered her-the terrifying woman
who'd beaten him up in the alley and forced him to jump into the river. Chloe stood there, arms crossed.
"Looking for Lisa?"
Ricky was caught off guard. "Who are you, and how do you know?"
"You've been dealing with Lisa for ages, and you haven't heard of me? I'm Lisa's... Chloe."
Ricky was momentarily stunned but stayed wary of Chloe. "What do you want?"
To Ricky, the woman standing before him was scarier than any crocodile. Chloe said, "You owe the casino thirty
million, but chasing Lisa won't do you any good. Besides, with her facing over a decade in jail, even if she got
out, she couldn't cough up that kind of cash."
Ricky was shocked. Lisa was going to be locked up for more than ten years?
"What's your offer?"
"I'll cover your thirty million debt at the casino, but only if you answer two questions truthfully. If | like your
answers, I'll settle your debt."
Ricky couldn't believe his luck. Someone was actually offering to pay his debt without demanding anything in
return. His expression changed instantly. "Go ahead, ask away. I'll tell you everything."
"First, what sort of deal do you have with Lisa, or rather, what dirt do you have on her?"
Chloe had done her homework. Lisa had sent Ricky money countless times, nearly draining her finances for him,
even including the twenty million from selling her shares. Ricky hesitated. He wasn't sure who this woman really
was. Lisa's secret was his golden goose. What if this woman found out and then refused to keep her end of the
bargain?
Sensing Ricky's hesitation, Chloe smiled slightly. "If you think this secret is worth more than what I'm offering,
pretend I never said
anything. You can keep your sol net
and continue to leverage it against
Lisa."
With that, Chloe turned, making a move to leave.
