Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 676

Darnell answered in a cold tone, “If you lost, you have to leave your eyes here.”

The mobster was frightened. When he was about to stand up, he got pressed.

He turned around, only to see the man who quickly removed his gun just now.

Darnell said, “Come on. Don’t waste time. There’s a long line behind you.”

Right after he finished speaking, the mobster was dragged to stand up by the man behind him.

The mobster was about 6 foot 5 and never lost in a fight. However, he couldn’t even fight against the man who was half-head shorter than he.

He wondered who those people were.

The mobster stood while trembling. “What... What to play?” he asked.

Darnell’s fingers knocked on the table. “Up to you.”

“Draw three cards and compare the points together.”

Darnell raised his thin lips and pushed the deck to the mobster, hinting at him to draw first.

The mobster checked the cards carefully. After confirming there was no special mark, he turned the cards over and drew three cards quickly.

When he was in the casino, he always played such a game with others.

When the opponent lost a few points, he would cut the same number of fingers of the opponent.

He had never expected that he would become the threatened one today.

After he finished drawing, Darnell drew three cards randomly from the cards in front. Then he raised his hand to hint at the mobster to show his cards first.

The mobster inhaled deeply. Wiping off the sweat on his forehead, he licked his fingers and slowly turned one card up.

It was ten.

Since they were comparing the points, ten was the biggest. Jack, Queen, and King were all null, which meant zero points.

Seeing it was ten, the mobster relaxed a bit. Shaking off the sweat from his hand, he looked over at Darnell, watching Darnell show his card.

Darnell slightly moved his slender fingers and turned over the first card.

It was an Ace, meaning only one point.

The mobster was quite delighted. His complacent smile revealed his confidence that he would win.

His partners also cheered for him while watching nearby.

The mobster, now more assured, turned over the second card.

However, it was a King.

The mobster was taken aback. On impulse, before Darnell turned up his card, the mobster flipped over the third one.

It was a joker.

That meant he had two cards with zero points.

Hence, he had ten points in total.

The mobster held his breath, looking at Darnell with still a ray of hope.

He hoped that the total points of Darnell’s cards couldn’t reach ten points.

Under his gaze, Darnell turned over his second card.

It was two.

The mobster’s heart jumped back to his chest. He laughed aloud.

However, a few seconds later, he couldn’t laugh anymore when seeing Darnell’s third card.

It was eight. Hence, Darnell got eleven points in total.

Coincidentally, he got one point more than the mobster.

“No! It’s impossible! You cheated!” the mobster yelled.

Darnell tossed the cards back and said flatly, “Leave your eyes.”

When the mobster was about to resist, “Bang!” his knee got a shot.

Other mobsters also started shooting.

However, before they shot, Darnell’s men acted quickly.

Even Hilbert spoke on Darnell’s behalf, but he failed to calm them down.

Since those elders were quite famous and respected in Riverside City, there were a lot of discussions about their death.

However, Darnell didn’t show up at all, nor did he explain this incident.

Gradually, all people believed that it was he who had killed those elders.

When reading the news, Stella gripped her phone tightly. Suddenly, she recalled that Clarence told her half a month ago that the mobsters who attacked William were the same ones who robbed the cargo ship of the James family.

She guessed that Darnell must have left Riverside City to deal with this matter.

However, after Darnell went out of town, several elders in his family were murdered. Darnell was suspected the most because he wasn’t in Riverside City and couldn’t explain himself.

Firstly, William was attacked. Then she and Clarence arrived in London. Later, Clarence got the clues and contacted Darnell, who left Riverside City to deal with the mobsters. Finally, the incident happened in Riverside City.

All of those matters...

Stella didn’t think they were coincidences.

She suddenly felt a chill down the spine, wondering if those people who had murdered the elders were the ones that worked with Joanna and drugged Noah.

What on earth do they want? Or, who on earth was their target?

Stella immediately unlocked her phone screen and dialed Archer’s number.

His phone was off.

She paled, feeling as if all her strength had been drained.

Stella tried to calm down and called Ms. Anderson.

Her phone was off as well.

Stella closed her eyes, gritting her teeth tightly. She tasted blood.

With the last calmness, she called Channing.

The call was through finally.

Before Channing spoke, Stella said, “Chan, go to find Maxwell now. Then pick up Sherry and Elaine. You must stay together. Before I call again, you can’t go anywhere.”
