Chapter 227 
Cynthia secretly met Hallet’s gaze, and he then found an excuse to leave the room. 
Under her guidance, Kurtis was indeed on a roll. 
He won a handful of money each time. 
Kurtis was so excited that he almost jumped off the couch. 
His subordinates also let their guard down and watched on complacently 
Just as Kurtis was excited, Cynthia quietly poured him a glass of wine and handed it over. She smiled and said, “Mr. Figueroa, it will be better in the later rounds” 
Kuna w 

was so andmated at the moment that he drank the wine without hesitation. 
When he saw on the screen that the next round was about to take place, he hurriedly urged. “Quick. What should I choose this round!” 
Kurtis had never been like that before. In fact, he was not that excited when he first came to the border and won territories from the surrounding forces. 
Even his gaze toward Cynthia was filled with admiration. 
Kurtis owned more and more chips, and the staff kept sending them in. 
Looking at the pile of chips, Cynthia raised her eyebrows secretly. 
It’s almost time, she thought. 
“Mr. Figueroa, it’s almost time to stop. You’ve also experienced what it’s like to be on a roll. As long as you follow my method. I guarantee you will be this lucky every time,” she said. 
Addiction was not a concern in excited gamblers, so there was no way Kurtis would stop at that moment. 
He stared at Cynthia. With his eyes slightly narrowed, he seemed both kind and intimidating 
“Let’s play for a while more,” he said. 
Cynthia looked at the pile of chips in front of him. They were worth at least 2 million dollars, but he still was not satisfied. 
“Mr. Figueroa, you should stop while the going is good. You’ve won enough today. I’m afraid you’ll lose everything if you continue to play: Cynthia advised carefully 
However, Kurtis was not the kind of person who knew to stop in time. Waving his hand, he replied, “Let’s play another two more rounds. I haven’t had enough fun” 
Cynthia frowned secretly and complained in her heart, No wonder you kept losing money previously 
Although she was angry, she still forced a smile and enunciated, “Fine, let’s play two Enal rounds” 
Another hour passed thanks to Kurtis‘ shamelessness. 
Cynthia was so anxious that she could no longer maintain the smile on her face. 
The issue was that it was already past 4 pm, and it would take them two hours to go back to Serene Sanctuary. 
That was already the limit. If they returned any later, it would arouse Evan and Liam’s suspicion. 
Cynthia spoke again. “Mr. Figueroa, I really don’t have time. I will accompany you the next time you want to play 
Kurtis narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly restrained himself “Since you want to go back, I can’t hold you here any longer.” 
Then, he grabbed some chips and put them in front of Cynthia, “This is my reward for you tonight. You can go now,” 
With that, he turned to look at the screen and did not say another word. 
Obviously, Kurtis had forgotten their agreement, or he simply never intended to repay the debt at all. 
Cynthia clenched her fists. She was using all her patience to refrain from coming to blows with that deadbeat 

“Mr. Figueroa, I can’t accept these, I only want what we agreed upon in the beginning Cynthia pushed the chips back.

Kurtis stared at the chips and then glanced at Cynthia’s face. 
Suddenly, he laughed and said, “Young lady, you’d better take these chips to make your trip worthwhile. Don’t bother thinking about anything else” 
“What do you mean by that, Mr. Figueral Cynthia’s face fell. 
Kurtis flashed her a crooked smile and replied, “It’s exactly as you think.” 
“It seems that you intend to bite the hand that fed you” Cynthia squeezed out those words through gritted teeth. 
“You can think of it like that Kurtis responded 
Cynthia stared at him for a long time, then let out a heavy sigh. 
She did not want to fight anyone, but Kurtis was too stubborn. 
If Cynthia had known this would happen, she would have beat Kurtis up directly instead of wasting time to put up a show for so long. It was exhausting 
Cynthia stood up, her aura cold as ice. 
She walked toward Kurtis and slowly rotated her wrist 
“I’m not Hallet. He can tolerate you owing him money for so many years, but not me. I can never stand dishonesty, and I like to fight, she declared. 
As Cynthia approached, all the surrounding bodyguards took out their guns. The situation turned tense. 
Kurtis motioned his subordinates to put their guns away. 
“Don’t scare her. She’s timid,” he said. 
Kurtis regarded Cynthia as a weak woman and felt that he could easily subdue her. 
1 gave you the chance to leave, young lady. Since you didn’t cherish it, you’d have to stay with me, then. I promise I will take good care of you,” he 
stated. 
Cynthia could not stand it anymore, so she swung a punch at him. 
“You’re ugly, yet you have a great imagination, she growled. 
Caught off guard, Kurtis was punched in the face, and his vision blurred. 
Y You Ah…” he stuttered. 
Never did he expect a young woman to have such strong explosive force. He had always assumed that a medicine student like her could not fight. Whale Kurtis was caught off guard, his subordinates did not move because of his earlier order. They thought he was flirting with Cynthia 
“The more I look at you, the more I want to beat you up. You wasted my entire day” Cynthia was so furious that she chose to hit him in places that 
hurt 
Suddenly, a wail resounded through the room 
Kurtis did not dare to sit on the couch anymore. When Cynthia was gasping for breath, he rolled to the side and yelled with trembling hands, “How dare this bitch hit met Catch her, I want to torture her!” 
His subordinates moved at his command. 
Since they were ordered to catch Cynthia, they could only fight with their bare hands. 
None of them were a threat to Cynthia, who took them down in a few minutes 
Seeing Cynthia walk toward him, Kurtis knew he was no match for her at all. “Kill her he immediately ordered. 
At that moment, he did not care less about the rule that no one could hurt doctors at the border. 
At his order, his subordinates took out their guns 
Cynthia perceived the danger with her sharp senses. In a flash, she had appeared beside Kurtis and gripped his neck. 
At that instant, Kurtis found himself struggling to breathe. 
His subordinates did not dare to do anything.
