The Domineering Love: The Little Wife of the Expensive CEO

Richard nodded: "After our investigation over the past two days, we finally identified the suspect as a staff member involved in the bidding preparation work."

After learning the answer, Nie Zheng was stunned for a moment.

Her guesses over the past two days suddenly seemed a bit absurd in the face of this answer. It turned out that there was really a traitor in the company. It had nothing to do with Lu Sha, and naturally nothing to do with Fan Minzhe.

Is it possible that she is just overthinking all this? Yu Ziyan and Lu Sha are inexplicably connected, and Fan Minzhe and Yu Ziyan are also old acquaintances.

Moreover, they deliberately acted as if they didn't know each other at all in front of him.

This is too abnormal...

No, no, there must be something hidden. All the minor anomalies may be hiding huge secrets.

Nie Zheng decided to believe in her own speculation and continue investigating quietly.

The weekend was supposed to be a time for the crew to be consultants, but Nie Zheng took a day off. For no other reason, today was the day Bai Chaochao's mother was released from the detention center.

She met Fan Minzhe early in the morning, and the actors they had found were already in place in the makeshift underground casino. They had rehearsed several times before, and the actors were very dedicated, even repeatedly confirming their lines in the process, striving to act realistically, so that Bai Chaochao's mother really thought she was in a desperate situation. Only in this way can the deepest fear be aroused, and fear is the first step to quitting gambling addiction.

Bai Chaochao was waiting at the door of the detention center, ready to take his mother home. During the half month in the detention center, his mother did not feel uncomfortable at all, but her face was full of rosy glow, as if she was not suffering in prison, but enjoying herself.

Bai Chaochao's mother also had her own plans during the time she was in the detention center. Ever since she knew her daughter was with Lou Fan, it was as if she had found a long-term meal ticket. She also secretly checked Lou Fan's family background. If her daughter married him, the money she earned from gambling would be nothing but a drop in the bucket in his eyes, and he would be able to easily get away with it.

"Mom, how are you doing in there? They didn't bully you, did they?"

Bai Chao shook her head at her mother, changing her usual harsh expression. Instead, she immediately hugged her daughter's arm and became particularly close to her.

"How have you been doing during the time when mom was away? Is your relationship with the eldest young master of the Lou family going well? When are you going to get engaged?"

Bai Chaochao could guess what her mother was planning even with her eyes closed. If she didn't quit gambling, it would be a bottomless pit. Even if Lou Fan had a lot of money, it had nothing to do with her. If her mother really wanted to take advantage of Lou Fan, she would rather break up than implicate him.

According to the original plan, Bai Chaochao took out a bank card and handed it to his mother, saying that it was a gift from him and Lou Fan to her.

As soon as she saw the bank card, Bai Chaochao's mother's eyes flashed with greed. She quickly put the card into her pocket and said that she had raised a good daughter.

It's really ironic. Ever since her father's accident, Bai Chaochao has been shouldering the responsibility of the family alone. She has suffered so much and endured so much pain, but her mother has never praised her. But now, her mother actually hugs her arm affectionately and praises her for being a good daughter.

Her cell phone vibrated twice. It was a text message from Nie Zheng, asking her if she had picked up her mother.

The plan went on smoothly. The mother had just left the detention center and had not even eaten. She took the bank card and separated from Bai Zhaozhao. She immediately contacted the woman surnamed Chen, who had already been bribed by Nie Zheng and others. The woman would take Bai Zhaozhao's mother to the "casino" they had set up early.

It seemed lively inside, and everyone's eyes were filled with greed. Some had a great time, while others lost everything...

Little did they know that all this was just a show they were putting on.

Bai Chaochao's mother entered the casino, holding the bank card that Bai Chaochao gave her. She was extremely generous. After picking a gambling table, she started placing bets, waving her hands as if the money was blown by the wind.

She won two games first, and then she kept losing. However, Bai Chaochao's mother still held on to hope, thinking that she was just unlucky today and that as long as she played two more games, she would be able to turn the tables and win a huge fortune.

Seeing the balance in his bank card getting less and less, he was already sweating profusely, but still refused to leave the gambling table.

"Are you still playing?"

"Play!"

She was already blinded by rage and had little money left in her bank card. Then came the next scene, in which an actor was hired to play the role of a casino owner and asked her to sign a loan contract with an alarmingly high interest rate. However, he signed his name without even blinking an eye.

Then she continued to lose, and the losses were endless. She started to doubt her life.

But even so, she still had no intention of leaving the gambling table, always thinking that she could turn the tables and make back her money in the next round. This is human nature.

With such a lucky mentality, she lost all the money lent to her by the casino owner.

I wanted to gamble again, but I no longer had the chance.

They tied her up, and the seemingly bustling casino instantly turned into a living hell where people were killed without blinking an eye.

Finally realizing the fear, Bai Chaochao's mother begged the casino owner to hand over the phone so that she could contact her daughter and pay to redeem herself, but the owner didn't give her any chance.

With a heart-wrenching cry, the poor man next to him, who was as obsessed with gambling as he was, was also tied up.

Those people became even more ferocious towards him, and the kitchen knives in their hands were shining with a bloodthirsty glow.

"I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore, please let me go... I will go home and raise money right away!"

"Today we don't want money, we just want your arm!"

The casino owner then waved his hand, and his men immediately received the order. They raised their knives and slashed, cutting half of the man's arm into two pieces right in front of Bai Chaochao's mother.

"Ah! Ahh!!"

The heart-wrenching cries sounded like a call from hell. Bai Chaochao's mother was so frightened that she lost her soul. She stared at the bloody scene in front of her like a walking corpse.

She never imagined that the consequences of gambling would be so tragic, and the transaction of money eventually turned into a bloody torture.

"Chachao, Chaochao!"

She screamed for help at the top of her lungs, hoping that her daughter would come down from the sky and help him out of the predicament.

Opposite the surveillance screen on the second floor, Bai Chaozhao looked at the scene before him, feeling both distressed and helpless.

People are all made of flesh and blood. How could she bear to see her mother crying for help so pitifully but remain indifferent?

"Don't be soft-hearted. Being soft-hearted now will only harm her."

Nie Zheng held Bai Chaochao's shoulders tightly, giving her some strength.

The mother's brain was filled with fear, and even when she was sent to the detention center, she didn't think it mattered.

Because she has a daughter, no matter how big a mess she gets into, her daughter will always be there to protect her. Because she has a way out, she has nothing to worry about.

But at this moment, the casino owner called his daughter, but got the news that the other party would no longer care about her.

Seeing the sharp blade approaching her step by step, she finally realized the feeling of being isolated and helpless.

The scenes before her eyes were like a movie, and she finally felt regretful.

If I hadn't gambled, none of this would have happened.
