Goodbye Mr Ex I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 992

Garland trailed behind Debra, looking more like a reluctant son dragged along by his mother than a boyfriend on a date.

Debra glanced at him, recalling how confident he used to be at the Eaton Mansion. But in Seamar City, he seemed timid, barely holding his head up.

Garland cleared his throat and asked, "What's that over there?"

The employee leading the way explained, "Those machines in the back aren't meant for the public. Unlike the ones out here that dispense toys, they can pay out real money. Much more exciting than any fishing game, right?"

Garland whispered, "But I heard these kinds of games are banned."

"Well, we're playing it low-key. I wouldn't tell just anyone."

"Oh, so you work here, huh?"

"Yeah, I help the boss bring in customers."

"So, these machines pay out cash on the spot?"

"Yeah."

"Your boss must be quite the businessman. I'm in business too, and this seems like a very profitable industry. Think you could hook me up sometime?"

"I'll have to ask the boss. If he agrees, I have no problem."

"I'm just an employee," he consoled. "The boss's identity is a secret, but you've got a good eye. Our machines are the best, shipped straight from Orkgate. Top quality and all legitimate."

Debra's mind raced. If the machines were from Orkgate, then Drake had to be involved.

They stood in front of a door. The employee pushed it open to reveal a smoky room filled with the clanking of slot machines.

"Come on in," the employee gestured.

Just as they were about to enter, a familiar voice rang out. "Get out of my way. How dare you touch me? Do you have a death wish?"
