Chapter 303 Azuria Casino
Willow could afford to clear the debt herself, but she would not feel confident without Caspian there.
It would be troublesome if she ended up getting kidnapped after arriving at the casino city.
She would have to rely on Caspian to save her father. She could only be certain that her father would be safe if Caspian was there.
“You dummy, Carl was nice to me back then, so, of course, I’ll help him when he’s in a difficult situation. Even if you’re no longer a member of the Stewart family, I won’t just stand there and ignore them. If it’s Kate, though…” Caspian did not finish his sentence.
Willow understood what Caspian meant by that. Even so, she was already glad that Caspian was willing to help.
After learning about the situation, Rebecca and Keller returned to Easton before them. Meanwhile, Caspian and Willow changed their flights immediately.
New Bay was a special city in South Diatoran. Everyone here gambled to provide for themselves. Gambling was legal too, so many people came here every day aiming to win a big sum of money.
Other people left feeling distraught after losing everything they had.
Many people became rich overnight, but more people here became destitute.
Azuria Casino was the biggest casino in New Bay.
Inside a luxury room, Carl sat on the couch, pale–faced and surrounded by several burly men.
“I’ve already asked my daughter for help. She’s the president of a big corporation, so she can easily afford to pay several hundred million dollars,” Carl said.
Carl’s heart was filled with regret at this moment.
He had always thought of himself as a lucky man. Several days ago, a friend told him that he could win millions overnight in New Bay, and he was tempted.
He did not have much status in the Stewart family, so he wanted to climb up the ranks using this method.

If he failed to pay off the debt, these people would cut his limbs off. Consumed by fear, he could only call Willow and beg her for her help.
“I don’t care who your daughter is. If you pay off your debts, I’ll let you go. But if you dare lie
to us…” a man with a tattoo sleeve threatened.
The man brandished a massive butcher knife and tossed it onto the table in front of Carl, creating a big gouge in the wood.
Carl shuddered. He was stunned.
“What’s that smell? Why does it smell like piss here?” the tattooed man said with a frown.
Hearing that, Carl ducked his head.
The tattooed man looked downward as well before he cursed in disgust, “f**k! Look at you, you’re useless! You dirtied my room! Maybe I should kill you now!”
“No! No, no! Please, don’t kill me!” Carl begged.
They were all cruel men who killed without blinking an eye, and they had blood on their hands. If Carl pissed them off, he would be done for!
“Someone watch over him!” The tattooed man stood up and left the room.
The door closed with a bang, and now Carl was left alone in the room, his heart full of despair
and fear.
“Willow, you must save me!” Carl prayed internally.
The tattooed man entered another room.
Before that, he rid himself of his threatening expression and put on a smile. He said, “I’m Kieran York. It’s an honor to meet you, Mr. York.”
He spoke with so much respect, seemingly a completely different person from before.
“How’s everything going?” Wendell asked coolly.
“That guy’s such a coward, sir. He lost control of his bladder after I threatened him. He’s already called his daughter.” Kieran laughed.
Wendell smirked. This casino was an establishment under the York family and was also the source of most of the family’s capital.
Kieran was the person in charge of this casino. He and Wendell worked together to lure Carl into a trap.

“Yes, sir!” Kieran lowered his head respectfully and left.
Right after his departure, Celestia asked in worry, “Dad, will kidnapping Caspian’s father–in- law really work?”
Wendell, Celestia, and Cole wanted to make Caspian pay. They were already on the way to Southlake when word came from the casino that Carl was gambling there, so they headed to
New Bay directly instead.
After that, they set a trap for Carl and made him lose hundreds of millions.
“Don’t worry, my daughter. Caspian is on decent terms with his father–in–law, and Willow will surely have Caspian help. I believe that Caspian won’t be so cold–blooded as to ignore his father–in–law’s plight,” Wendell said, sounding certain.
He had already concocted a perfect plan. Caspian was powerful, yes, but he had a weakness
Willow.
Willow was his Achilles‘ heel.
“Remember what we came for! If you mess up our assignment, you’ll be the ones groveling in front of Mr. Kane!” Cole said sarcastically.
He found Wendell’s ploy to be pointless, and he would rather head directly to Southlake instead of wasting time on Caspian’s father–in–law.
“Cole, you would’ve been able to win against Caspian if you had the brains, but instead Galecrest was wiped out! You’re just a stray dog at this point. You have no say over this!”
Wendell said in disdain.
“You…” Cole was furious. Galecrest was a gouge in his heart, and yet Wendell just had to bring it up!
“Whatever! I can’t be bothered to get involved. If Mr. Kane ends up castigating us for it, you’ll be the ones shouldering the blame!” Cole said impatiently before storming out of the room.
Wendell scoffed in disdain. Cole was merely a stray dog, yet he had the nerve to yell at him!
If not for the Kane family, who they were working for, Wendell would’ve beaten Cole up
for being so disrespectful.
“Dad, Cole is also working for the Kane family, isn’t he? What if he tattles to Chandler Kane after we piss him off?” Celestia asked in worry.
“It won’t amount to anything. He doesn’t think he’s still the leader of Galecrest, does he? He’s just a man without anywhere to go back to, so he’s nothing to fear.
“As long as we do away with Caspian first, we’ll be able to curry the Kane family’s favor. With that, our family might start enjoying a higher status!” Wendell’s eyes glinted wisely.

He was not a fool. He was fine with working for the Kane family, but he must also gain something out of it.
In other words, the York and Kane families were just using each other.
