Damsel in Distress The Bet

chapter 4

Lenexa POV

Before he passed away, my father left my sister and me a variety of businesses and corporations. Since my twin sister and I were 22 years old when my father was killed in an accident, we never really got to know our mother. He was hit by a careless, intoxicated driver, and they both passed away instantly.

My sister tried to help to change me, but to no avail. She had to fly to Thailand to take control of my dad's business there, since money had been stolen. It was a sorrowful and depressing moment in my life, during which I buried myself in work and s*x with several people.

I continued working and had s*x with numerous girls while living in a penthouse with a housekeeper who served as a mother figure in our lives. My sister virtually always calls in the morning and evening to check on me.

I chose today to gamble at my favorite casino. Gambling is one of my favorite pastimes since I always come out on top, and it makes me feel proud and superior. My bodyguard is always with me, but he only appears as a shadow, so I can see him when I first enter the casino, keeping an eye on me and everyone else there.

I ran into a woman who was standing in the road and lost in contemplation as I was heading to the gambling establishment. Even though I knew I had hit her, I still walked away and yelled, “Next time, you i***t, don't stand in the road.”

When it was a man's turn to bet, the lady moved from her perplexed vantage point in the corner of the room where we gambled to move toward my side.

I thought she smelled lovely as she said seductively in my ears, “I think you need this.” Before staring at her from head to toe, I first glanced at the beverage.

She was incredibly lovely, but I had to pretend and keep a straight face. Already screaming lesbian was the color of her nails.

Unlike most gamblers, I occasionally lose on purpose since I am aware that some players are poor, but this man just kept on boasting.

We began to wager. I could smell the girl as she continued to try to divert my attention when I had failed myself, and I could hear her let out a breath she had been holding. I wondered what her relationship was with the man; they better not be having s*x.

Even after using all of his resources, the man continued to lose money. “800 million,” I said, wearing a look of boredom on my face.

Before confronting me and stating the most surprising thing I have ever heard in my life, he turned around and chatted with his pals. I was hurt by what he said.

“I'll bet with my daughter; she's pretty, you know,” he remarked, pointing to the girl who was trying to divert my attention, so I could lose. I would at least have her within my grasp.

I heard her trying to speak, and I said, “Deal.” could hear people discussing and complaining. We started playing, and once more I was able to beat him.

“I'll be there in a day to get her.” I got to my feet after that and fled the casino.

“Arden, As my security opened the car door for me, I said, “I need all the information you can provide me about the female who was beside me today at the casino.

When I arrived at my penthouse, my cook, who has been with us since we were children, greeted me.

I said, “Hello, Auntie Maria.” Although I may come out as disrespectful from the outside, I am very polite to my relatives and close friends.

“How are you, Lenexa? How was work? You look very stressed. Go take a shower while I warm the food.” She claimed to be the mother figure that neither my sister nor I ever had.

I didn't respond, instead silently making my way to my room, taking a shower, and coming downstairs to eat. I couldn't see her, so I assumed she had probably gone to bed. Likewise, I finished eating, packed the dishes, and then quietly made my way back to my room.

Furthermore, I undid my clothing and got into bed, where I eventually fell asleep.

My alarm went off, and even though I would rather not get up, I did my early morning routine, got dressed in my suit, and went to get my coffee before heading to work.

While I was taking up my phone because my sister was calling once again, Arden said, “Good morning,” and opened the car door for me.

She shouted, "Lenexa, why did you not pick up my call last night?”

I answered with a smile, able to see her lying in bed, “Do you intend to render me deaf this morning?” Get out of bed and get ready for work, you lazy ass.”

“I'm the boss, so I can leave whenever I want.” I was addressed by her tongue-sticking comment.

“Therefore, tell me where you were last night, since I asked Maria, and she said that you hadn't returned.”

“I went gambling, met a very attractive girl, and got her”. She got to her feet and started asking questions.

“How did it happen? Did you coerce her into coming with you or what? Wait, you kidnapped her and threatened her family. What have you done, oh my God?” She remarked without even glancing my way.

“You asked a ton of questions, so are you finished? If so, which do you want me to address?”

“Just reply to everything, so I can decide whether I should start heading home”. I stared at her and began to giggle.

My sister still views me as a child, despite my belief that I am an adult. “Oh, sis, I have to leave now; I'll call you later,” I had to say when I realized the car had stopped.

She must constantly say, “I love you; take care of yourself, and bye.”

“Bye, love you, sis,” was how I finished the call. I then opened the car door and stepped outside. As I entered my workplace, I noticed that my coworkers were scurrying away from me out of fear of me. I could also hear my assistant ordering someone to leave because they couldn't see me. We have a meeting because we don't

As soon as I entered, I recognized it was the man from the casino.
