CHAPTER 450

When they arrived at the underground casino, Janet got out of the car and headed straight for the

entrance.Behind her, Henry paused in confusion because he was here to lead the way, but Janet

turned out to be more familiar with the casino than him. Has she been here before?At the same time,

Mason was as surprised as Henry. He narrowed his eyes suspiciously at Janet, and they gleamed as

he pondered on his thoughts.Noticing their absence, she turned around to find them staring at her

blankly. Hence, she looked away and walked back to Mason guiltily. Taking his hand, she then told

Henry, “Lead the way please!”At that, Henry snapped out of his confusion, and he rubbed his nose

awkwardly before jogging forward to take the lead. Still, he felt quite speechless at Janet’s odd

behavior. Why would she turn back and ask me to lead the way when she has already reached the

entrance? Her brain works differently indeed.Then, the group of four walked to the entrance and were

about to enter when they were stopped by two burly guards. They checked out the pretty lady and the

three smart-looking men before coldly demanding, “Please show your entrance ticket.”Henry paused

briefly and curled his lips into an awkward smile. “I have not heard about any entrance ticket

before.”“Cut the nonsense!” One of the men glared at them and hissed, “Perhaps not in the past, but

you need an entrance ticket now!”Janet stared at the two guards and coldly scanned them from head to Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

toe. They look familiar… I guess they’re members of AQ! Thus, she fired back at the guards in a hostile

tone. “We’re from a different city and only learned about the entrance ticket today. Can’t you be more

understanding?”“You’re asking for understanding?” The guard smirked. “Do you know the sort of VIPs

that we receive in the casino? Look at yourselves; do you think you deserve it?”At that point, Henry had

tightened his fists and reached out for his gun at the waist. To his surprise, however, before he could

touch the weapon, he was stopped by Mason, who hinted at him to not make any bold move for

now.“Our leader, Aquila, also gave an order earlier. Those without entrance tickets will need to defeat

us and Ace for access to the casino.” “Ace?” Henry knew that Ace was the second greatest gambler of

all times. In order to defeat him, they would need help from Jasmine, the Queen of Gamblers.Even

though Henry once frequented the casino, it had been some years back. At his current level, he had no

confidence to beat Ace.The two burly men at the door noticed their hesitation, so they scoffed at them.

“Are you guys here just to cause a scene?”“Yeah, you haven’t even heard of Ace, so what makes you

think you’re qualified to enter the casino?”“I bet you’re incapable of beating us, let alone Ace!”“Those

who don’t know about Ace should get lost!”Mason stole a glance at Henry and inquired, “Do you have

the confidence to win against Ace?”In response, Henry sank into a short silence before shaking his

head. The guards overheard their conversation and mocked them even harder. “You’re here talking

about defeating Ace, but I suspect you don’t even know who he is!”Right when the guards thought the

group would leave in humiliation, the only female in the group suddenly spoke up. “Ace? Isn’t he that

man who lost to Jasmine, the Queen of Gamblers?”She ended the sentence with a chuckle and lifted a

brow, which made her appear rather enchanting. Upon hearing that, Mason and Henry were surprised

and intrigued by her remark.The two guards were taken aback as they had not expected the young

lady to know about Ace and Jasmine.“Who are you?” They stared intently at her and demanded to

know about it.“Whether I tell you or not, it will not affect my victory tonight.” She smirked at them as she

spoke.Upon hearing that, the two guards could not resist chortling at her. “You’re quite full of yourself,

aren’t you?” After a moment’s pause, one guard said, “Do you think you can win against Ace just

because you’ve heard of his name? Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror?”In response, she

beamed at them. “I know my abilities very well. Why would I need to look into the mirror?” A troubled

expression crawled up Henry’s face, and he reminded her, “Miss Jackson, no matter what, you

shouldn’t underestimate Ace.”
