Remorse After Breaking Up



Just as Zia thought she was doomed, the door was kicked open.

"Who dares interrupt me?" Startled, Marcus yelled angrily.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

He then turned, only to see two men entering the room. He mocked when he recognized Joseph. "It's you. Here to watch me having my way with your daughter?"

Joseph was enraged. His anger only flared at the sight of his disheveled daughter on the bed. However, he knew he couldn't act rashly. The Osborne family was too powerful, and Phaedra Island's rules were strict.

"Mr. Wilder, please save me," Zia pleaded, her eyes filled with hope, though she doubted Sebastian could help. After all, Marcus was only acting in accordance to the rules, as she had lost to him.

"I promise I'll save you," Sebastian assured her confidently.

"Hahaha!" Marcus laughed derisively at those words. He peered at Sebastian, the way one would an idiot. "Do you know what you're saying, punk? She is my personal belonging now. I won her fair and square. No one can take her away without my permission. That is unless you think you can defy the laws on Phaedra Island."

Sebastian knew Phaedra Island's immense influence, which surpassed even Supreme Nexus at its peak. He couldn't afford to use force, so he proposed, "Since you won her, I'll win her back."

"You want to gamble with me?" Marcus sneered.

"Don't do it, Mr. Wilder. His gambling skills are unbeatable. I ended up here because I lost to him ten times," Zia warned urgently, not wanting Sebastian to risk himself for her.

Sebastian remained unfazed. "Yes, I want to gamble with you. Are you brave enough to do it? "

"There's no way I would back down from a gamble. But what will you wager?" Marcus asked. "How about a billion dollars?" Sebastian proposed.

"That's not a small amount, but I'm not in need of money," Marcus replied arrogantly. His family, the Osbornes, was a powerful hidden family with assets in many countries.

"Two billion!"

"Five billion!" Sebastian countered.

Marcus finally showed interest when Sebastian kept raising the stakes until he reached five billion.

"So, you're someone with deep pockets. Alright, I'll play along, but wait outside for a bit. I'll finish with her first." He leered at Zia.

Sebastian clenched his fist, resisting the urge to smash Marcus's head. "Mr. Osborne, I'll add another billion to the pot. Let's gamble now."

Seeing Sebastian's determination, Marcus smirked confidently. "If you insist on wasting your money, I'll oblige."

They first had Zia return to her room and change clothes before they headed to the entertainment area.

The entertainment area was bustling with people-the casino was particularly crowded. There were many gambling options available, such as blackjack, roulette, poker, and dice games.
