Chapter 12 Something Really Happened.

When Mason said this, Miranda’s facial expression changed slightly.

Because her own plans were completely seen through by her younger brother.

At this moment, Lachlan chuckled and said, “I heard that the children of big families are well-educated, but it seems not always true. Miranda, is your brother talking to me like this as his brother-in-law?”

As he spoke, not only did he not let go of Miranda, but he also tightened his grip on her and pulled her closer to him.

For a moment, the fragrance wafted over him, causing his heart to flutter.

With a soft “Ah,” Miranda fiercely pinched the soft flesh at the small of Lachlan’s back, but on the surface, she displayed a shy and bashful look.

She didn’t expect that when facing her brother who saw through everything, Lachlan was completely unfazed.

This guy was really different from the previous two.

Just based on this level of courage, he was not comparable to those two submissive tools.

No woman would look up to a man who bowed his head and submitted.

Although Miranda couldn’t be moved by this, she secretly looked up at Lachlan.

When Mason heard this, his face completely darkened.

This gigolo dared to say he had no manners? And even provoked by hugging his sister tightly?

“Whose brother-in-law you’re? I’ll shoot you!” Mason said, and directly pulled out a revolver from his pocket, fiercely aiming it at Lachlan.

Who was he? He was the third generation core member of the Lowe family and the underground boss of Edoland!

“Pop!”

“Mason! What are you doing? Let me say it again, he’s your brother-in-law, he’s my man! Are you trying to kill my man?” Upon seeing this, Miranda slapped Mason across the face.

Mason was stunned by the blow, staring wide-eyed at his older sister.

His sister actually slapped him for a gigolo?

“Have you not put away the gun yet? Apologize to your brother-in-law!” Miranda scolded sharply, and then raised her hand.

Mason shrank his n*eck and finally obediently put away the gun.

It is said that it’s best to discipline younger siblings early, and Miranda had done well in this regard.

From childhood to now, Mason, her own younger brother, had been frequently disciplined by her. As a result, even until now, Mason was afraid of his older sister.

Moreover, he was more afraid of her instead of their own parents.

So when Miranda really lost her temper, Mason finally didn’t dare to go too far.

However, it was absolutely impossible for him to apologize to Lachlan.

At this moment, Lachlan tugged at the corner of his mouth and deepened his understanding of Miranda’s domineering strength.

Looking at Mason, who was covering his cheek, he suddenly realized that he wasn’t too wronged by this woman driving him away yesterday.

This woman was really tough!

“Sis, you actually hit me for an outsider?” Mason asked aggrievedly, staring at Lachlan with murderous eyes. He now doubted whether his own sister had been enchanted by this guy.

“Don’t stare at me. Let me remind you that today is a sign of losing money for you. Your club may have trouble. Be careful!” Lachlan said unkindly.

Hearing this, Mason sneered, “I’m going to lose money? Brat, don’t play tricks here!”

He looked at Miranda and said, “Sis, did you find a liar? Which one of my clubs doesn’t make a fortune? I’m going to lose money? That’s ridiculous! This club has all the connections from top to bottom and there are plenty of experts in charge here. Trouble will arise here? Ha…”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Just as Mason hadn’t finished speaking yet, someone knocked on the door of the lounge.

“Come in!” Mason rubbed his face and said in a deep voice.

“Mr. Lowe, something happened! Tiger’s men brought gambling experts to cause trouble and we’ve lost 20 million already!” One of his subordinates spoke with a serious expression.

As soon as the words fell, Mason was stunned and then his expression changed rapidly. Not only because of the losses at the casino, but also because of Lachlan’s reminder just now.

Something had gone wrong!!

“I’ll go take a look!”

Mason gave this so-called “brother-in-law” a deep look and quickly walked out of the room. Meanwhile, Miranda stared straight at Lachlan as if she wanted to see through him.

How did this guy know that her brother’s place was going to be in trouble? He had been with her all day since lunch!

For the first time, Miranda felt curious about a man.

“Why are you looking at me like that? Let’s go together and check it out?” Lachlan was getting nervous under Miranda’s gaze and asked with a smile.

…

The magnificent casino!

A gambling expert who managed this place wiped off sweat from his forehead and looked like he had eaten something awful.

Lost again! 5 million lost in this round!

He was the most skilled player at the Gold Coast Club, but he continued to lose to his opponent.

The other guy had down-turned eyes and exuded a gloomy and calm aura since he sat down at the gambling table.

He was Tiger Webb’s expert gambler from Agosville, another city, with a nickname that made many of his peers tremble: Snake!

Beside Snake stood a man with a diagonal scar on his face, arms crossed as he watched.

His expression was full of pride!

He was Scar, one of Tiger’s fierce warriors.

“Ha ha ha, Mr. Lowe is here?” Mason walked into the casino with his entourage as Scar laughed heartily.

“I thought it was someone else. It turns out to be you, Old Scar! What brings you here today?” Mason asked with a fake smile on his face.

“Mr. Webb said your place has good surroundings and quality girls. I just had to come see for myself!” Scar grinned before adding sarcastically: “But there aren’t any real challengers here? My friend won almost 30 million, hahaha…”

The sarcastic words from the other side made Mason itch with anger, wishing he could chop the guy’s hands off himself.

But even though they were all involved in a street-smart scene, business dealings couldn’t be reckless. Scar wasn’t there for a fight, but rather to cause trouble through gambling. So Mason could only try to win back his losses at the gambling table.

With a dark expression, Mason asked the casino manager, “How much did we lose?”

“Boss, 20.8 million dollars!” The manager swallowed hard and spoke with difficulty.

Upon hearing this number, Mason’s eyelids couldn’t help but twitch. They had already lost nearly 30 million? This was really…a huge loss!

On the other side of the gambling table, Snake’s chips were piled up like a mountain while Mason’s skilled gamblers had run out of chips again and sweat dripped down their faces. Their pressure could be imagined!

“Mr. Lowe, my friend hasn’t had enough fun yet. You’re not going to stop him from playing now, are you? Keep giving your people more chips,” Scar teased.

It was clear that after winning almost 30 million dollars, he didn’t intend on stopping anytime soon.

For a moment, Mason’s face reached its limit! However since he opened this casino and started doing business with customers coming in through his doors, he couldn’t just stop them from playing because they won money; otherwise his casino would be finished before it even got started!

Was it impossible for the guest to win, only to lose?

If this got out, who will dare to come and play again?

“Move aside, I’ll take over!”

Just then, one of Mason’s skilled gamblers was pushed aside by someone.

Mason was taken aback as he saw Lachlan sitting across from Snake.
