Chapter 372 Chapter 372 Gambling Debt Jill had completely lost herself in love. Most of the things she said revolved around Caleb. However, I still found it strange As far as I could tell, Caleb wasn't the type of man who would use his girlfriend's money. Jill might've invested in his company, but there should've been an 100 at least. Alternatively, an agreement detailing her investment would work too. However, Caleb didn't mention anything of the sort.

Back when I was going through with the divorce, Caleb even had the presence of mind to tellto hold tightly onto the shares. So, why did he becthis careless now? Once I started suspecting Caleb, everything seemned off to me. I wasn't able to sleep for the entire night after Jill left. I was even startled when Astrid dropped by to visitthe next day.

"What's wrong with you, Eve? Haven't you slept at all for the entire night? Are you feeling unwell? Do you needto call the doctor over?" I waved repeatedly when I saw that she was nervous. "I'm fine. I just couldn't sleep. This is all normal. It happens occasionally." 1 had relapsed three times. Naturally, I had authority on the subject. Astrid would believeeven if I made stuff up When we were shooting the breeze, both of us talked about Jill's latest relationship Astrid pursed her lips. "She has forgotten about her friends now that she has a boyfriend. We promised each other we'd hunt for good food, "You can't be discharged from the hospital now, and fill is busy with her love life and the stuevery day. Damn it!" "Did Caleb run a gcompany back in college? Jill said he was quite famous on campus back then," I asked casually.

Astrid frowned and pondered on it. "Probably not. I'm not too sure, though. It's not like I was in the scourse with him. With that said, he wasn't xactly a popular figure. There were too many distinguished figures on our campus, and Caleb didn't have what it took to stand out." I thought about how I also doubted Caleb when he had just returned. He said he was the university representative in a debate competition, and he did arrange forto enroll in the university, but I cto learn that one could earn oneself such a spot if a big enough donation was made.

Naturally, I was the one who footed the bill for the donation to the university, which helped build a library on campus. I didn't think I saw Caleb on the wall of ffor the best competitive debaters. Once I started having doubts, the suspicion kept growing and growing.

I might've seen him once during a debate. I don't think he participated much in university activities. "As you know, only a handful of exchange students would diligently attend classes, and I was one of the few. After all, Jack is counting onto help him out once I return to Pycosia," I felt even more discouraged when I heard what Astrid said. We proceeded to chat a little more before I pretended to read snews o I raised it and showed it to her.

"Look over here. The news says that a lot of students have gambling debts. Is this for real?" "I've been here for a long time, but this is the first tI've heard something like this." Astrid swept her eyes across the news.

However, the case she mentioned made"When did it happen?" feel extremely alarmed.

"Just last year I don't think it has been a full year since the tragic m incident Astrid was still feeling sentimental about the linovian lady's death. However, my heart had begun to sink slowly.
