Chapter 596

Without even looking at what was typed out on the promissory note, James proceeded to sign it and

immediately joined the next round of the game. But in less than 15 minutes, he lost all two billion

dollars worth of chips again.

“We’re out of chips again, James‘ Should we borrow more? The young lady asked once again.

“Yes! Get as much as you can! James growled. At that moment, he had completely lost control of his

senses, his actions only driven by the relentless desire to win back what he lost and make the man with

the hooked nose regret what he said.

Two hours later, James was drenched in sweat and panting uncontrollably, his eyes were bloodshot.

His expression was somewhat horrifying

“Sorry man, Three of a Kind and One Pair. That makes a Full House. You’ve lost again. “The man

opposite him showed his hand and smiled meanly.

“Go! Borrow some more! I refuse to believe that I’ll keep losing today! James shouted.

“You’ve already lost too much, James. They refuse to lend you anymore,” The young lady answered

“They’re not lending me anymore? Why not? Do they think that I can’t afford to pay them back? I’ll have

you know that my sister is the chairperson of Nicholson Corp.! She has assets worth over a hundred

billion dollars! James declared proudly,

“Hey, buddy, my boss would like to speak with you.” Out of nowhere, a calloused hand rested on

James‘ shoulder from behind.

“Who the hell is touching me? James whipped around immediately. Just as he was about to start acting

aggressively, he froze. Behind him stood several insanely buff men who were wearing suits and looked

like they were henchmen, staring at him.

“What do you want?” James put on a calm facade.

“You borrowed quite a huge sum of money throughout the night. My boss would like to talk to you about

your payment. Come with us.” As the leader of the group of henchmen spoke, he inconspicuously

flashed the gun fastened to his belt. James‘ eyes widened. As he dared not go against their wishes, he

had no choice but to follow them upstairs to the VIP room

Over in the VIP room, there was a paunchy man with a cigar perched on his lips and one ankle resting

lazily over a knee.

“He’s here, Mr. Doyle.” Two henchmen pushed James into the room and locked the door from outside.

James gulped dryly when he saw the room full of menacing and fierce henchmen. His anxiety was

unconcealable.

“Do you know who I am?” The paunchy man asked before taking a long swig of his cigar and slowly

exhaling, releasing a puff of smoke.

“You look very familiar, Sir. Have we met? James asked cautiously.

“I’m Doyle. Duncan Doyle,” The man said.

“Duncan Doyle? From the prestigious Doyle family?” James was astonished.

“It’s good that you know me. Now, let’s talk about my money. So, you borrowed a total of 38 million

dollars tonight. How are you going to pay it back?” As Duncan spoke, he slapped a thick stack of

promissory notes on the table. Every piece of it had James‘ signature on it.

“38 million? That much?” James could not believe his ears and quickly flipped through the notes to

check. By then, he was already thoroughly drenched in sweat. “M–Mr. Doyle, these notes prove that

I’ve only borrowed 30 million. Where did the extra 8 million come from?” James asked

miserably.

“Why would I be lending out money if not for the interest?” Duncan asked frostily.

“B–but isn’t the interest too high?” James asked warily.

“Cut the crap! You either pay me what you owe or I’ll chop your limbs off!” Duncan glared at him.

“N–no, don’t! I’ll pay!” James was flustered by the situation he was in. “Can you please give me a few

more days to pay up, Mr. Doyle? I promise I’ll pay you in full.”

“No! You are to pay me tonight. Where am I going to find you if you escape?” Duncan demanded.

“But how am I supposed to produce this much money in one night?” James cowered in fear.

“Didn’t you say that your sister is the chairperson of Nicholson Corp.? Several million dollars are

considered peanuts to her!” Duncan smirked sinisterly.

“What?” James froze up for a while before he continued sheepishly, “Mr. Doyle, knowing my

sister, she will most likely refuse to pay my debts.

She usually helped him out of most of the trouble he got himself into, but once they had anything to do

with gambling or drugs, it was the end of the discussion.

“Don’t worry. I’ll help you.” Duncan smiled venomously.

“Help me? How will you help me?” James was taken aback by Duncan’s offer to help. But Duncan did

not give him a straightforward reply. Instead, he simply gestured to his henchmen and took an axe that

they handed him. As James watched on with terror in his eyes, Duncan swung the axe

down in the direction of his wrist.
