Stefan murmured to himself, "Renee, oh, Renee.You''re such a pain in the ass.You''re going to be in


    deep trouble once I get my hands on you!"


    The casino was huge.


    People gathered inrge groups in each area, but there was one particr area with the greatest


    number of people.


    Eager gamblers surrounded a round casino table as they made excited cat-calls.


    Stefan instantly knew something fishy was going on, and he quickly strode over.


    Unsurprisingly, there was a young woman all tied up on the table.


    The woman barely had any clothes on—the white silk dress that concealed little of her skin was


    extremely thin, while a feathered mask covered the upper half of her face.


    Curled up into a ball in the corner, she was evidently trembling.


    Stefan felt a tightness in his chest.He clenched his fists and prepared to charge forward.


    That''s because he could tell the woman''s facial features were nearly identical to Renee''s despite the


    feathered mask she was wearing.She had the same pointy nose, the same pink, smooth lips, and even


    the same neck and corbone.She was, in essence, Renee''s doppelganger.


    However, a tall, muscr man held the rope around her.

    "This is high-quality meat.If you win, you can use her yourself or share her with others.She''s definitely


    worth the money.Who else wants to ce a bet?!"


    The man shouted and forcefully tugged the rope, causing the woman to moan as she was violently


    jerked forward.


    The sound of her moaning was like a battle song that motivated the men instantly, who mindlessly


    stepped forward and started cing their bets! When Stefan saw this, he stopped moving


    completely.He stood there quietly and seemed to be thinking about something.


    The facial expression on his face turned colder.


    Right then, Xavier, who stood at the center of the crowd, started saying something.


    "I''m counting down from three.Hand her over, or you''ll all be in trouble!"


    The man holding Renee came across people like Xavier every day.


    Naturally, he was very calm.


    "Sir, everyone likes a beautiful woman.If you want her, you''ll have to ce your bet.If you win, you can


    take her with you.If you lose, you''ll have to wait for your next opportunity!"


    Xavier, however,cked patience.


    He sneered.


    "Three, two..."


    When he counted down, the security staff in the casino picked up their weapons.


    Despite the hostility, Xavier wasn''t afraid at all.


    Although the casino held a lot of power in this area, they were nothingpared to the Stuart family.


    By the time the security guards started moving, Xavier had already sent his men to close off all exits.


    The security guards were now pointing their guns at Xavier.


    The man jumped off the table and shouted at Xavier.


    "You ignorant fool.How dare you stir up trouble here? Go to hell!"


    He swung his fist at Xavier''s face, but Xavier dodged it and kicked the man with force.


    The man was sent flying.


    Even the chain in his hand was sent flying.


    Seeing how Renee would soon tumble off the table along with the chain, Xavier quickly reached out


    and caught her firmly.


    Her body was light as a feather.


    It was lighter than he remembered! Xavier''s heart raced.He felt like a young kid who was touching a girl


    for the first time.He held onto Renee stiffly while asking if she was alright in a nervous tone.


    "Renee, are you alright? I rescued you again!"


    Stefan stood at the outermost section of the crowd while he watched the entire saga without any


    emotion on his face.It was almost as if he was watching a movie and had nothing to do with it.


    Meanwhile, the man on the ground, humiliated, became enraged.He called out to the hundreds of


    bodyguards, "Open fire! I want them torn to shreds!"
